Travelling

Travel Planning
To help you organise your trip of a lifetime, we’ve put together our own travel planning guide to aid you with all planning aspects including accommodation, visas, budgeting, flights, and more! Travelling around countries you’ve never been to before can be both a scary and exciting prospect, especially if you are considering backpacking around on your own. Our aim is to provide you with all the information and advice needed for a safe, successful and stress-free travelling experience, and put your mind at ease over any concerns you may have.
Planning a gap year

Visas

01/09/2010 - 19:06

Although you may not want to think about it once you’ve decided on where you’re going and what you’re doing for your gap year, at some point you will have to consider the legal side of your trip and investigate the visas you need.

It’s a good idea to sort out the paperwork for this as soon as possible, as this can take weeks and you may have to visit the country’s embassy in the UK. So save yourself the stress and read our guide to obtaining the correct visas and permits before you go.
