Sul programma

Our program is important to support the development of children in fragile districts as well as other foundations. With sports or music activities, we improve the spare time and the personal developments of our participants. 

For our volunteers, the program offers the perfect combination of explore, adventurous, social, fun and learning activities. We invite you to explore Colombia as authentic as possible. We will bring you to places you would never see on your own and you will meet interesting foundations and local people. You will improve your Spanish with local teachers, stay in a nice and popular hostel or if desired with a guest family, enjoy many hikes and activities and learn a lot about the Colombian culture, their games, their music, their dances. Most important, you will participate in the following interesting projects:


- Foundation "Goles por la paz": A project, which interacts with children and teenagers in vulnerable districts: Have sports sessions, dance classes, music activities, play games, support on homework, teach english - or whatever your heart desires - every talent is welcome. If you just want to visit and have a cultural exchange, that's also welcome. 

- Foundation "Capaz": Explore authentic Colombian neighbourhoods and districts where you normally wouldn't have access to. Interact with the people and with the children of the foundation. 

- "Nuevos Horizontes" - A re-integration program of a Colombian prison. Motivated prisoners are working for their second chance in freedom. Interact and exchange with them or even help them to get fit with sport sessions, play table games like chess with them, play football, have music or dance sessions, or bring your own ideas and talents.

In your volunteer activities, we don't expect you to do work you don't like. You decide by yourself the time you want to spend with the foundations and the activities you would like to offer. In our program, it's all about you having an interesting time and an unforgettable experience! 

You will live in Bucaramanga's most popular Hostel, where you will meet many likeminded people who also participate in the activities with you. The hostel is located in the center and in the most vibrant area of the city, with many nice restaurants, bars and clubs. 

If you like it more authentic and adventourous, you can stay with a Guest family in a district where you normally shouldn't stay too long. Our foundations make it possible to have a safe and interesting stay there. 

Most of the volunteer activities will take part in the north of Bucaramanga, where you will find a football court, a classroom and a kitchen. 

You will work with the participants, which will be mostly children and teenagers, and also participants in the prison between 25 and 40 years of age. If you don't want to participate in one of these foundations (e.g. in the prison), that's no problem. 

In the activities, you will be supported by local professionals. 

Our program is mainly to interact with interesting people and with the foundations. It's not about you working for us. This explains also the price of the program. It's an authentic and social experience, not a work agreement. We don't expect anything from you. You can bring your talents and execute the activities you feel comfortable with: For instance have sport trainings, dance sessions, music sessions, English lessons, or other activities.

Sul progetto

We offer an all-in program containing social activities (kids, animals, or even in a prison), Spanish Classes, Dance Lessons and many adventure and explore tours.

Incontra il tuo ospite

We are a collaboration of 9 Colombian NGO's. Bucara Voluntours has been founded in 2023, but our foundations already exists for many years and have a lot of experience with their activities and also with volunteers.

Bucara Voluntours re-united the foundations and created a program which offers the perfect combination of social, exploring, adventurous, fun and learning activities. 

We are based in the beautiful city of Bucaramanga in Colombia. The area has a lot to offer: Beautiful nature, many great hikes, South Americas biggest canyon and much more. The city is not that much touristic, so you can explore Colombia in it's most authentic way and interact with many locals. 

Our mission is to support beautiful and important NGO's in Bucaramanga, and at the same time offer an unforgettable experience for our Volunteers. One of our main visions is to give access to English classes to every child in the north of Bucaramanga. 

Why choose us for you volunteering? We are looking for people searching for an authentic, social but more than all fun experience. We don't expect you to do work which you don't like. You decide by yourself the time you want to spend with our foundations. You can have as much free time as you want, and there are many great activities we will organize for you.
