We offer a unique range of programmes in Africa for young people. AfricaGap combines conservation experiences in some of the best wildlife areas on the continent, with time spent volunteering in small local schools. With unique expeditions to wilderness areas supported by professional staff, experiencing cultures, local markets, remote islands, Africagap will take you to amazing places you would not be able to reach if travelling independently.

 

Designed for students aged between 17 and 23, our expeditions led by people who love Africa.

 

​Whether you are on a gap year or already at university or working, our expeditions will allow you to explore Africa without wasting any time. With the exception of Victoria Falls adrenaline activities, all our activities are included and you will be able to access wilderness areas you could not access travelling alone or in a small group.

 

We also have a Summer Camp in July each year for 3 weeks, especially designed for students aged 15-17. Fully hosted, this is fun, safe and exciting. The summer camp team get to enjoy similar experiences as our gap programmes, in a shorter space of time.

 

Our aim is for our students to get our passion for Africa, its people, and wildlife, and to gain confidence and inspiration from their experience. Through cultural experiences and time spent in wilderness areas, Africa teaches humility and courage, and deep respect for the natural world. We believe Africa is the best place to spend your gap year and we look forward to welcoming you. Our students leave more confident and happy in their own flip flops and through amazing shared experiences in remote places, end up making friends and memories for life.
