Why Travel With Spark?
Over the last seven years, Spark has developed a world-class impact travel program, hosting over 300 participants on trips to Nicaragua and Zambia.
What do we mean by “Impact Travel”?
With these as the foundation for all of our trips, we are now customizing trips to various groups – families traveling with us to Zambia this July, young professionals on an adventure to Nicaragua with us this November, and more!
Don’t take it from just us, though! Here’s what some of our travelers have to say about traveling with Spark Ventures.
“Wonderful trip! Great combination of working with the children, seeing the great efforts of Las Tias and having the opportunity to explore some of Nicaragua. Can I go back tomorrow?”
Kathleen Jackson, Financial Advisor
Traveled to Nicaragua on Executive Trip in February 2015
“The trip ended with a phenomenal stay at a 4 star hotel as we went on a top rated safari in Botswana and saw Victoria Falls – one of the 7 Wonders of the World. You come out of this very moving and foundational week seeing Spark’s impact with the children and creating sustainability, and all of a sudden you find yourself in this fantastic hotel. Even though I’ve traveled a bit, there is little that can compare with sitting in an open truck with a herd of elephants just 25 feet away. Overall though, what really sticks with me was how we were up close and personal with the kids and the work in Zambia: a front row seat to Spark’s work. I came away a changed person.”
“Spark does a really fabulous job of organizing our time and making sure we have great food…and good accommodations. I’ve found it very easy to travel with Spark.”
“If someone asks if me would I go on another trip with Spark Ventures, my answer is absolutely and I think you should, too.”
