Organising a Retirement Gap Year

Organise it

Making your arrangements for your gap year travel

It can take up to a year to organise a complex gap itinerary, simpler ones obviously much less time. If you have paid a company to organise part or all of your journey, then you should expect all the complex details to be arranged for you eg flights, visas, insurance, accommodation, health issue etc.

If you are doing it yourself, this part of the website gives you access to the means to make your own arrangements.

‘I wanted to be out in Africa for a minimum 6 months. I was now a retired housewife, with a pension and suddenly no responsibilities. I will definitely go back to Nambiti again and would very much like to try the Namibian elephant expedition’. Deidre MacGuire went to Namibia with Global Vision International.
