About this trip
A New World is an eye opening experience for all travelers. Although eye opening, we will warn you, this journey is not for everyone. No electricity, running water and wifi is a common occurrence in the villages. Your meal plan will be small amounts of rice, beans and chicken. You will see first hand, they may not have access to the things we do, but it doesn't mean they are not happy people. Experience the living conditions and a behind-the-scenes look at what makes the humble and caring people of the Dominican Republic so special.
COVID-19 has changed the way we volunteer, travel and communicate. The 4North Project has redesigned their packages and programs to focus on, not only the impact of our global communities, but your personal safety and security. We will continue to offer Sustainable and Secure solutions while Educating and Empowering the people in smaller numbers and from a distance. 4North has added several brand new tours throughout Southern Dominican Republic to keep you excited and energized!
