Who We Are

The Cultural Restoration Tourism Project is a unique non-profit organization established to provide communities around the world with a chance to restore cultural artifacts that are in danger of extinction. What really makes us different is that we give people like you, from any background, the opportunity to participate in the restoration process. Our participants spend their vacations putting their hearts and hands to work on something truly meaningful. They return from their experience invigorated, knowing that they have had a real impact on the community they chose to visit. Our opportunities allow travelers to get a true experience of the culture, its people and its traditions.

Volunteer Tourism

Programs hosted by the Cultural Restoration Tourism Project are always community initiated. We help communities who want to help themselves, but do not have the resources to do it on their own. The restoration efforts aid communities in their sustainable development both environmentally and economically. The restored buildings will not become museums, but functional cultural centers within the communities. CRTP facilitates the coming together of local specialists within the host country to ensure the success of our programs.

CRTP is a 501 (c) 3 non-profit organization, so all donations are tax-deductible and are used to enact our restoration programs. Please use the Sign Up Now button above or below to get started on the experience of a lifetime!
