Well prepared. Lots of pre-information given prior to the programme.

Pretty standard hostel in Brisbane. Hostel on ranch was awesome, good facilities; Pool table, DVDs, Music etc. and excellent food, well fed! |
How was your experience in the destination(s) that you travelled to with Real Gap?
Really perfect, couldn't have wished for a better week! The programme was so well constructed and inclusive of every activity one would expect on a ranch.
What did you think of the programme? Did your project and destination meet your expectations? Any anecdotes? What was the most memorable moment of your trip?
Exceeded expectations completely. Great hospitality, great activities, great group of people! Best moment was the last day of 'training', on the muster. There is a choice of mustering on bike, quad or horseback. Incredible experience. |
