Gap year and travel safety course
Duration: 1 day
Every year thousands of explorers set off overseas on their own independent travelling adventure. Some want to see for themselves the great monuments left by the pre-Columbian civilisations, others join the Masai in their traditional dancing in the Great Rift Valley or trek the Bario Loop in South East Asia. Wherever they go they will have a once in a lifetime experience never to be forgotten.
However, it is a sad fact of life that the majority of travellers are ill prepared for the rigours of independent travel. As a result many find themselves the victim of crime; others end up inadvertently breaking local laws whilst others have to be repatriated with medical problems at considerable expense to their families.
This is where we can help. We have many years of experience in overseas travel and advise both groups and individuals on personal safety issues. We can organise cost effective one-day training seminars for your students at your school.
These courses give the individual the knowledge and confidence to successfully plan and conduct their own gap year, safely and effectively.
