Around the World Tickets

This is where we help you to choose the perfect around the world route.

As you may have worked out, all these tickets go around the world, so they will all have a number of destinations in common. We think the best way to help you choose is to set them out so that you can see what's unique and special about each route

The tickets marked 'explore' all include at least one leg of overland travel in a particular region where other tickets might include just one stop, or may avoid altogether.

We've also picked out tickets that are great for a first-time trip around the world, or ideal for those of you who want to spend more than a year away, but want the security and lack of hassle of having a pre-booked flight home.

Popular First Time Route

If you've never been travelling before, or just want to sample plenty of what the World has to offer, then this is the type of ticket for you. You can relax safe in the knowledge that there'll be Christmas barbecues and white sands, without worrying about getting stuck 500 miles away from a cash point.

Typically you'll see Thailand, Oz, NZ, Fiji and the USA on one of these tickets, but there's still room for you to personalise your route.

Explore Africa

If you yearn for adventure in a land of endless skies and vast, sweeping plains, then you want to spend some time in Africa. Your first elephant in the wild is something you'll never forget and just one of the many memories you'll carry with you from your time on 'The Dark Continent'.

Around the world tickets generally enter Kenya and leave via South Africa, but there are plenty of other route choices available.

Explore Australia and New Zealand

Years of watching Aussie soaps are probably the reason you want to visit Australia and as you are over the other side of the World, you'd be mad not to visit New Zealand too.

Rainforests to trek through, glaciers to hike, remote beaches to explore, vast underwater worlds to discover... That's not forgetting the top tourist attractions like the Sydney Opera House, Uluru and the Lord of the Rings sets...

Explore Asia

If you want to go somewhere really different, then have a think about this ticket. Landing in the hectic hustle-and-bustle of Delhi will really let you know you're not going to be queueing in Tescos again soon.

Then take your time to explore the rest of Asia's glorious kaleidoscope of experiences, from the remote majesty of the Tibetan Himalyas to the glory of the Taj Mahal and the hedonism of a Full Moon Party in Goa.

Explore Central America

This route is for those that want to explore a melting pot of cultures. Caribbean meets Latino meets American in an explosion of incredible sights, sounds and smells.

Scattered with Mayan ruins, fantastic underwater landscapes, almost-untouched rainforests, stunning tropical islands and temperamental volcanoes, Central America has tonnes to offer. Plus it's a perfect continent to pick up a smattering of Spanish.

Explore the Far East

Distant, mythical, vast and sprawling - just some ways to sum up the Far East. This ticket is for those who want to uncover the mysteries for themselves...

Thousands of blinking neon lights, hi-tech gadgetry, a really Great Wall, a Forbidden City, terracotta warriors, stunning temples and even opportunities to snowboard. The Far East, where anicent and modern collide with amazing results.

Explore North America

This is a route perfect for cowboys and city slickers alike. Visit the shopaholic paradise of New York City, the glitz and glamour of Hollywood and the great outdoors of Yosemite and Yellowstone. You could spend a thousand gap years here and never get bored

North America is vast and varied, you'll never find anything quite like it. From the husky-driven snow adventures in Canada to cacti and coyote in Arizona, it's all well worth exploring.

Explore the Pacific Islands

This ticket is ideal for those who want to experience a slower, more relaxed pace of living on their round the world tour.

Expect white sandy beaches, aquamarine waters teeming wiith rainbow coloured fish. days spent swaying in hammocks and evenings relaxing at beachfront bars. Plus you won't meet many friendlier locals than the Pacific Islanders...

Explore South America

This ticket is perfect for adventurers who want to explore everything from the Amazon Rainforest to the lost city of the Incas.

South America is a wonderful, vibrant continent, packed full of experiences that you won't find anywhere else in the world.

Explore South East Asia

Bangkok makes it onto many round the world itineraries, but there's more to South East Asia than Thailand. Nicely nestled closeby are some other absolute gems. Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia, Singapore, Indonesia and Malaysia have loads to offer backpackers.

Expect orangutans swinging through trees, jungles to trek through, awesome beach parties, mindblowing ancient temples, volcanoes to clamber up and oodles more!

Exclusive extended tickets

Don't want to cram the most exciting trip of your lifetime into just a year? Well now you don't have to, thanks to these amazing round the world tickets that are valid for 18 months.

Want to spend twelve months in Oz on a Working Holiday Visa? Then these tickets are for you. Book one and then take your time exploring all that the World has to offer at your own pace...
