Gap Year & Student Travel Top Tips From Our Travel Experts
Amy Harrison
Pre-book flexible, open dated accommodation packs or travel passes before you set off on your gap year, allowing you to keep your plans flexible and avoid having to budget for them later.
Jonathan Finn
Make the most of your long haul flights with a stopover, it's like ticking off an extra country for free. Some of the best value flights to Australia and New Zealand include stopovers in Dubai, Hong Kong, Bangkok or Singapore, among many other awesome destinations.
Jessica Stewart
Always have a deck of cards with you when travelling. They're great for making friends with other backpackers in hostels, and even non-English speakers can play!
