    Real gap ???
    So basically, next year i'm hopefully going to university (Bristol), and therefore not taking a gap year.

    However, I really want a mini gap year experience during my summer holidays.

    Therefore I settled on 'the thailand experience' by RealGap.

    As the majority of my friends are either going on a gap year or don't want go to somewhere exotic during their summer holidays I am having to do it alone.

    So my questions are, Has anyone taken the 'the thailand experience' by Real Gap and did they enjoy it. And secondly, Did anyone go on it by themselves, and what was it like?


    Thanks

    Trust me go on your own. Gap year companies are a rip off and you're stuck doing whatever they plan even if you want to stay longer/ leave earlier. You'll meet people there really easily and have a sick time.
