gap year ideas?

Hi, I am taking a gap year before university and thinking about travelling, but I'm nervous about it. I would like to go on a program with other people my age because I would be going on my own. Does anyone know any good companies or projects? Has anyone had a good gap year experience? (I'm interested in conservation and animals in particular, but I like culture/ languages as well and I just want some sort of adventure)

I've been researching gap year options, and it seems a lot of tours are just a more expensive way of travelling. Where do you want to go? There's a good backpacker trail in South East Asia, and a lot of volunteer opportunities in South America.

Hey! I'm doing a gap year too, I'm trying to sort out an internship for part of the year, but I really want to go travelling before and after it! All my friends are going straight to uni though, so I'm looking for someone to travel with, and I think the companies are a bit expensive...I'd much rather plan my own adventure!

That's the same with me, all my friends are going to uni. That's why I'd probably prefer to do an organised group thing, so I won't be on my own.
