Could anyone tell me if there are any positions that are accompanied.
I'm interested in the islands and I have the qualification but I also have a family.
Thank you

  I had checked on this a few years ago.  At the time it was an unaccompanied tour.
Also, at the time, I think they were offereing about $25 an hour, not enough for such a major change.
