What does Tucan Travel offer for Gap Year Students?
We know that young people are (generally) not rich people. That’s why we designed our Budget Expeditions travel style, with cash-strapped gap year students and other young travellers in mind – so you can explore the most exciting bits of South America without breaking the bank. There are loads of benefits to travelling on a Budget Expeditions style tour:

- If you're under 26 or a student, you will qualify for a 5% discount on the tour price of a group tour. You may be able to combine this discount with some of our other year-round discounts for a total of up to15% off. See our specials page for more information.

- Singles, couples and groups are all welcome, so you’ll have ample opportunity to make new friends your age with like-minded people from all over the world. Meanwhile, your Bebo and Facebook friends list will receive a good boost in numbers, and you may even continue your travels with people you meet on tour. You could even end up with a worldwide network of friends and contacts for future travel, as well as increasing your network for future business opportunities... you never know...

- Budget Expeditions tours are very hands-on so you’ll learn team-building skills and how to get along with a variety of different people from different backgrounds.

- As you travel you’ll pick up new language skills and bartering abilities from your experiences in local markets and restaurants. (You can even take an independent language course in four joining cities in Latin America!  Click here to learn more about our language courses.)

- Your camera will certainly get a work-out, so with your photography skills are likely improve – and the subject matter will never be boring!

- All of your transport and accommodation and transport is organised for you so your gap year tour will be a breeze.

- An expert tour leader will show you around and look after the logistics on tour, without holding your hand too much (unless you really want them to).

- Nothing additional is included in the tour price, which gives you plenty of time to save for the things you want to do on tour, rather than paying for activities that aren’t to your taste.

- Transport included on one of our custom-designed, modern, comfy top-of-the-line expedition vehicles in  South America

- A wide range of itineraries in different areas of the world. Whether you're looking to blitz through several countries or take your time to explore in a longer expedition, we have something for you.
