Why go Global
We get it, your child travelling overseas is a big deal and it’s not as simple as them buying a ticket and hopping on a plane. There’s a lot that needs to be done behind-the-scenes to plan for the perfect trip. That’s where we come in. We do the hard work for them, take that huge weight off their shoulders (and yours) and save them time, stress and money. The only thing your child has to worry about is having the best time possible!
What we do
Ongoing support
We pride ourselves on providing a premium and personalised service to each of our customers. Every traveller will have their own dedicated Trip Coordinator to assist with every step of their travel journey, from the lead up to their trip to once they’ve landed in their dream destination and settled into the new culture overseas. We have 3 offices around the world, and Global Travellers are free to visit us when they please and enjoy a complimentary coffee, Red Bull or beer on us! On their return home, if they require assistance with post-trip essentials such as completion certificates or tax returns, we’re always a quick call, email, knock or message away.

Common questions parents ask

Yes! We are dedicated to creating a safe and stress-free experience for your child. We ensure each of our partnerships, including partner organisations, host families, volunteer projects, host companies, teaching schools and tour operators, are thoroughly screened and meet our strict safety and welfare standards. In the chance your child feels unsafe during their trip, we have a 24/7 Global Emergency Line where our team will be available to help them. We also offer ongoing support throughout their whole journey if they ever need advice or questions answered. That’s what we’re here for.

We’re members of peak industry organisations and our cabinet of awards reflects this.

How much does it cost?
The price really depends on the type of trip and destination chosen. We have heaps of inclusions packed into all of our trips to give our travellers the best value for money and include everything they would need.
How will you find my child a job on a working holiday?
Our dedicated team will aim to provide your child with their 1st job opportunity before they arrive, or within the first 4 days of their working holiday. If not, we’ll extend their hostel accommodation for free until we do. Whilst we do the research and hard work finding job opportunities, your child will need to attend the interview of the interested partner organisation, whether it be skype, phone or face-to-face, and have an eager attitude to land the job. Throughout their entire stay, we offer unlimited job opportunities (so long as they commit to a 4-month term per partner organisation), so they can keep funding their travels overseas. For example: They may want to start off with a ski season on the west coast of Canada, then head to another part of the country over summer, with a few side trips around the US in between. That’s what our working holidays are designed for.
