Best experience EVER!
December 03, 2025by: Talley Desparrois - United StatesProgram: Australia Adventure with GapforceThe program has been absolutely amazing! I have loved everything about Australia, formed a lot of new friends/relationships, and made so many great memories so far. I would 100% recommend it to others, I think everyone should get to experience this beautiful place. My favorite part was the camping trip on Frasier Island, but I have also loved sky diving, snorkeling, and all of the nights out have been a blast. Overall, this has been the best experience I’ve ever had and I’m so glad I got out of my shell and booked it.
Best experience ever
January 11, 2023by: Georgia Chakraverty - United KingdomProgram: Australia Adventure with GapforceWas so much more than I expected. Met amazing people and leaders. Would highly recommend this to anyone as you will have the trip of a lifetime and you will never look back at it with regret. Helps you step out of your comfort zone with likeminded people.
It was amazing!
January 10, 2023by: Mara Frohreich - GermanyProgram: Australia Adventure with GapforceThe whole trip was just incredible! In those 7 weeks you see all of the famous east coast spots and do a lot of well-planned activities but also have enough freetime to do your own thing which makes it perfectly balanced. The volunteering part is another very good part of the trip because even though it might not be interesting all the time, you give the country you stay in something back. If you think about doing the trip, than book it now!
