Gap Year in Honduras
Gap year travel in Honduras is both cheap and rewarding. It’s Caribbean coast is home to some spectacular beaches, the Mayan ruins of Copan are widely believed to be amongst the most impressive in the entire region and the wetland reserves of the Rio Plantano Biosphere are home to 80% of the country’s wildlife species. Despite it’s many attractions, few travellers visit Honduras, which makes it a great place to get off the beaten track in Central America.



We work with many volunteer projects across the country, so if you want to get involved with volunteering while on your gap year in Honduras, we can help. You could find yourself helping out with conservation, building, journalism or teaching English in Honduras.
