Gapforce is an experienced tour operator specialising in student and youth travel programmes to some of the world’s most incredible locations. Established in 1989, we have over 30 years experience offering expeditions, gap year opportunities, training courses, volunteering challenges and trips abroad for schools and universities. Our mission is to offer authentic travel experiences that are socially and environmentally responsible. We believe that time spent abroad will shape your future. Travel can bridge the gap between education and career, or just give time and space to follow your travel dreams. We provide a highly personalised service from your first contact with us, right through to your chosen trip. Our dedicated team of programme leaders and support staff are all seasoned travellers united by a common purpose: to help young people explore the world. We work with trusted local businesses and project partners overseas who align with our values. It’s important to us that people in the places we visit benefit by partnering with us. Together we want to make a positive impact on local communities and environments as we work to provide great experiences for travellers arriving. We offer many different trips and choices. The most difficult part of your journey will be deciding where to go. We are ready to welcome you on board one of our adventures as soon as you are ready to start planning! Let us know you are looking for a travel adventure and we’ll be ready to help you on your way!
