Gap year Australia & New Zealand
A gap year in Australasia is a great choice if you want to combine conservation volunteer work with back-packing or general travel in Australia.



This, coupled with a glorious climate and diverse range of activities to immerse yourself in while travelling the unique terrain of Australia and New Zealand, makes a gap year experience that offers pretty much everything you could wish for. So whether you end up watching the sunrise over Ularu, hand-rearing a nailtail wallaby or taking part in adrenalin water sports, you can have an unforgettable gap year out while contributing to the delicate balance of Australia and New Zealand's wildlife and awe-inspiring landscapes.
Just select any of the gap year volunteer projects in our volunteer Australia & New Zealand section to learn more. Don't forget our travel advisors are on-hand to answer your questions.
