I am an experienced field biologist that was looking to volunteer in Africa and see as many primate species as possible. As Azafady was recommended to me by a past volunteer (who I volunteer with through another organization in Canada), I knew they were a trustworthy and legitimate organization. Azafady answered my numerous questions in a timely manner before my departure, and ensured someone picked me up at the airport after 12:00am. I rented an amazing tent from the organization and it help up during terrible rains. The field set up is basic- latrines, bucket showers etc. but you can hear the ocean from your tent and the forest itself is incredible. I saw more endemic species than I could count- from bats to chameleons. The staff is kind, knowledgeable, sincere and do their jobs with a passion that is admirable. If you are looking to help preserve some of the most fragile species in the world and have an amazing adventure, this experience is for you.
