Frequently Asked Questions
A gap year is a break between education or work, and can last anywhere from a few months to a year or longer. It’s an amazing opportunity to meet new people, explore the world and find out more about yourself - including discovering new interests, or starting up old ones!
The short answer is yes, you totally should (not that we’re biased or anything 😉). Gap years are an incredible chance for you to slow down, take a break and get to know yourself - including exploring those destinations that you’ve always dreamed about! Whilst gap years are one of our main specialities, we appreciate everyone travels differently - so for those with less time who are looking for a mini break, we offer short trips for life-changing adventures in 2 weeks or less!
Everyone’s dream gap year can look a little different! If you’re into stunning beaches and vibrant nightlife, then Thailand, Bali and Australia tick all the right boxes. Maybe you’re less of a party animal and more of a wildlife lover who has always dreamed of doing an African safari, or seeing sloths in Costa Rica. For temples and traditional culture, Vietnam or Japan may be at the top of your bucket list. At Gap 360, we have trips to more than 50 destinations - so the world really is your oyster!
If you would like to use our Plan My Gap Year service, the first step is to give us an idea of your budget, where you’d like to go and how long you want to go travelling for - then we’ll take care of the rest! Our friendly travel advisors are just a message or call away, and if you’re still deciding between destinations, why not check out our Guidebook for some travel inspiration?
