Gap Year Programs in Asia

Dive into the history, culture, and sights of some of Asia’s most incredible countries.

Traverse karst mountains, river rapids, and electrifying cities while meeting the people who call it home. Discover cultures a world away from your own, try your hand at artisan crafts, and gain important life skills, and find out who you truly are. 

Asia offers some of the best locations for extended travel in the world. You can embark on gap programs ranging between 4 to 10 weeks long in Cambodia, Thailand, and Vietnam. Here, you’ll enjoy unforgettable experiences and see the world from a totally different angle. 

Visit and explore Angkor Wat, cruise through Ha Long Bay, dive in the tropical paradise of Koh Tao… the list goes on. At every stop, engage with the local community and contribute to positive change, whether that’s marine conservation, animal rehabilitation, or assisting women in business. 

Our gap year programs are tailored specifically for young adults aged 17 to 24 looking to invest in themselves and make incredible memories. They don’t have to be part of an actual gap year—you can choose to travel for just four weeks over the summer, split six weeks between two countries, or take 10 weeks across the entire region. The choice is yours.
