Trip details
A Working Holiday should be nothing short of fun, exciting and the adventure of a lifetime. Stressful? Hard? We don’t believe in that. That’s why we have designed our Working Holiday trips to help you secure a local full-time job in a great location, often with some amazing perks, right from the get-go and before you land. And here is how we do it.
Trip location
Known as one of the most liveable countries in the world, Canada is a vast country that caters to everyone and all interests. Whether cultural city excursions are your thing or hiking in the great outdoors, this country will never disappoint.
The natural beauty of Canada offers jaw-dropping landscapes, wandering wildlife from moose to bears, and pristine lakes so the instagram photos and outdoor activities are endless! In the winter, you can ski down the powdery peaks of the Canadian Rockies or in Whistler to enjoy a true après ski vibe. The summer here consists of long sunny days swimming in placid turquoise waters and camping under the stars and mountains.
