Gap year Vietnam
Volunteering in Vietnam has become increasingly popular for people taking gap years in Asia. It is a remarkably friendly place and is very much on the gap year circuit. We have many opportunities to get involved with volunteering in Vietnam as part of your gap year.
We work with locally run building, community development and teaching gap year projects across the country. The following are especially popular with gap year travellers and will give you the chance to meet up with like-minded travellers: Build homes for underprivileged families in Vietnam, Teach English in Hanoi, and Community work with orphans in Ho Chi Minh City.
Take a look at the gap year projects, articles and web forums below to find out more about volunteering as part of your Vietnam gap year. Or visit our Vietnam Travel and Vietnam volunteer sections.
