Travelling and Backpacking in Greece

Many people think first of South America or Asia when considering destinations for a gap year, but you don’t have to go so far from home.

If you want to travel, go backpacking, volunteer, work, study or book an adventure, we can help you plan a gap year to Greece.

Work in Greece

Are you looking for one of the best gap year jobs? Apply to work in Greece! There are summer and year round positions available in Athens and popular tourism destinations like the spectacular Greek Islands!

If you intend to work during an extended trip, language is unlikely to be a barrier in the more urban areas, but there are also numerous chances for seasonal type jobs in places like Athens, Santorini, Zante and Mykonos.

Summer jobs are really popular – who wouldn’t want to spend a few months working in paradise!

Volunteer in Greece

On stunning islands like Kefalonia you can find meaningful short term volunteer projects, with a focus on animal welfare, the environment and marine conservation. These exciting projects are a great way to do something meaningful while travelling.

The flexible duration of these projects may fit with other travel plans, for example working or touring Greece. Volunteer placements in Greece are available all year round, with duration options of a few days to 12+ weeks.
