I had an amazing time at the farm in the Tigre Delta! despite being located just an hour from Buenos Aires it felt like in the jungle.
the only connection to streets or cities is the river next to the house, but Thomas has his own motorboat and is chill af. Oh and he talks perfectly english, so no communication problems at all. Awesome place💪

I was so disappointed about this workaway. I don't know how they got so much good ratings, except the nice location, I can hardly find some good points about it.
First of all, the lack of discussion, no questions, no exchanges, everybody are always on their phone during the time together.
The work is interesting but it would be better with more… read more

I spent the best two weeks in Delta del Tigre. I learned a lot of things from Ramón, Guillome and Thomas throught their experiences. I did tasks like cutting trees, digging ditches for evacute the water when the river was growin' up and differents activities that I did before but it was pretty much different than another workaway.

I liked having… read more

J’ai passé un excellent séjour chez Guillaume et Thomas.
En effet, grâce à eux j’ai pu apprendre énormément de chose et ai pu devenir à l’aise dans la vie au camp.
Certes le travail peut parfois être un peu éprouvant mais de mon point de vue, on n’obtient rien sans un peu d’effort.
Une pensée également pour Ramon. Sa maîtrise et ses… read more

I spent two weeks in September with Tomas, Guillaume and Ramon; and I really enjoyed my stay in Tigre. The work is reasonable and varied. They have multiple tasks and make sure that what you do is suitable for you and your "skills". There was always someone around which made me feel very welcomed and gave the experience a homey touch. Sadly I… read more

I stayed with Tomas for 2 weeks, during that time I was helping burn logs, dig trenches, plant trees and general help keeping the place going, the work was very rewarding.
The two weeks were brilliant, Tomas is a very knowledgeable and friendly person with a lot to offer, I learnt a lot about forestry, society and friendship!
I hope to see Tomas… read more

We spent a great 6 days with Tomas helping with pulling logs out of the ditches, burning wood, painting the house and helping to prepare some buckets for planting. The house we stayed in was nice and peaceful and we could hear lots of birds and frogs! Tomas shared with us a love of alfajorefes (biscuits) and pizza and we had a great barbeque on… read more

Thank you Tomas for allowing us to be part of your project. We were definitely out of our comfort zone living there but it made us stronger and helped us to appreciate the little things of everyday life. Tomas is very hard working and never stops, always on the go. It was really great to experience life in the Delta....so peaceful.
We wish you… read more

Nous avons passé 5 jours aux cotés de Thomas afin de l'aider dans son projet. Le cadre est vraiment très agréable : au beau milieu de la nature, les cabanes en bois sont belles, de quoi déconnecter.
Le projet avance petit à petit, à ce stade il y a donc que très peu de confort : pas de toilettes, pas de salle de bain, pas de cuisine, pas d'eau… read more

Que experiência incrível! Desde o momento em que Tomás nos busco de lancha, nos levando pelos canais até a ilha, amanhecer em meio a paz da natureza, contemplar os entardeceres perto do Rio (e se estiver disposto recomendo um bom banho aí!!), até o momento de sair. A cabana de madeira é super aconchegante, e o que não falta é coisa para fazer.… read more

Estaba durante 20 días con Tomas en las cabañas. Esta experiencia fue una de las mejores de mi viaje. Aprender a trabajar la madera, hacer sangas, ordenar el campo, quemar los troncos o no sé .. tanto agradable que gratificante para todos. Especialmente para este lindo proyecto en este lindo lugar.

My week and half in Delta Tigre was amazing ! I already miss those guys and Bendi especially (the dog). Such a pleasure to be there at the beginning of an awesome project that is growing pretty quickly.
