Volunteers in Tanzania can experience this abundant and unique destination with our Language and Culture immersion program. IFRE Volunteers offers an interesting informational week of Tanzanian languages and exposure to multiple cultures. Our program includes a week of learning mostly Swahili and provides volunteers glimpses of the varied and exciting cultures of this abundant East African country. A tour is included in this program. See the city through the eyes of the experienced guides. Gain useful insight that will improve your volunteer experience.
