Volunteering & Medical Tours
Bring your expertise. We will handle everything else.
Every year Mount Eagle hosts medical professionals and volunteers who come to Tanzania and Zanzibar to work alongside local teams. Our Dar es Salaam office handles what usually makes these trips difficult.
Two ways in
Volunteers and credentialed clinicians need different answers, so the paths separate here.
Volunteer programmes
Placements in education, community development and health outreach, with in-country coordination throughout.
Medical clinics & tours
Short-term clinics staffed by visiting specialists, in partnership with Tanzanian health providers.
What we provide
In-country coordination
Handled by our Dar es Salaam team.
Accommodation & transport
Airport transfers and local transport arranged.
Local partnerships
Introductions to the organisations you will work with.
Orientation on arrival
Context, expectations and practicalities.
A named contact
One person, throughout, who answers the phone.
Permits & scheduling
Paperwork and clinic scheduling handled locally.
Upcoming dates
No. Our in-country team handles translation and local coordination throughout, and English is widely spoken in the settings you will be working in.
Requirements change, so we confirm the current list with you at application. Plan for six to eight weeks before travel.
Get in touch before applying. Whether we can place a student or trainee depends on the clinic and the supervision available at the time.
As early as you can. Placements are coordinated around clinic schedules and travel arrangements, so more notice gives us more to work with.
