Are you considering a Thailand Gap Year? Well we know the company that can help you arrange it all. From trekking to culture and from diving to climbing. Xtreme Gap are the experts in gap year Thailand programs
LetsĀ say you are alone and you want to learn about the culture of Thailand and get to know other people, than the Thailand gap year experience might be the ideal travel option for you. From day one you are surrounded by other travelers and you get to know the real Thailand.
But maybe you just want to dive, than you definitely should try and get your dive certificates on your gap year in Thailand. We have all our diving programmes on Koh Tao. On this beautiful little island in the Gulf of Thailand it is all about diving, and Martial arts but I will tell you about that later in thisĀ gap year article.
There are over 40 dive schools here, the vibe is fantastic and the prices lower than anywhere else in the world. And you get the change to dive with turtles (Tao) and the whale shark, and not only that. Once you have your Advanced open water certificate you can meet the bull sharks on your gap year travels.
No? Diving not for you. Well Koh Tao has more to offer than only diving on a Thailand gap year. You should try some Muay Thai. This is the Thai National Martial Art and it is really good for your fitness. The Xtreme Gap martial arts programme allows you to train 2 hours a day, one on one, so you will learn the basics in no time, and it is great fun. Some of our travelers got in the ring too!
And another thing that can not be missed on Koh Tao are the amazing white sandy beaches. Lazy during the day and full of passion at night. The beaches turn in to lounge clubs and fire dancers do there acrobatics for you while you sip on a mango vodka bucket. Not bad!
