Work Experience & Adventure Travel Programs
Our most popular gap year programs include 11-12 weeks of volunteering followed by an optional 4 weeks of independent travel.
Our group summer programs are 5 weeks long. During the week you will take part in either one or two volunteering projects and at weekends you’ll be free to explore.
You can also travel whenever you like, for as long as you like. Create your own customized trip, or join a scheduled group departure – the choice is yours. Contact us for more details.

In-country 24/7 support
Continue your adventure under our independent travel scheme and you have the reassurance that if a problem occurs you will be looked after by our in-country 24/7 support network.
Cultural Immersion
Our gap years are not simply about travelling, they’re about staying and actively participating in a community. It’s about engaging meaningfully with individuals and sharing your skills wherever they are needed.
This is not your average gap year, you won’t be a tourist, you will become one of the locals and will build lasting friendships and enhance your skill set with incredible, stand-out work experience.
