UK-based gap year travel platform Gap 360 has been acquired by Intrax, global provider of cultural exchange programs.

Gap 360 was founded in 2011 and based in Tunbridge Wells, and has become a trusted resource for students and young adults seeking adventure, work, and volunteer opportunities overseas.

It has a portfolio of travel options in over 50 destinations,

“We are thrilled to add Gap 360 to the Intrax family,” said Marcie Schneider, President of Intrax.

“I have been impressed with their quality and wide range of destinations and program types. We are excited to continue to nurture these programs.”

The acquisition enables Intrax to further diversify its portfolio, which already includes high school exchange (Ayusa), au pair (AuPairCare), camp counselor (AmeriCamp) and more.

Gap 360’s travel options include volunteer programs in Africa, internships in Asia, and adventure tours in South America.

It will now be part of Intrax’s offerings.

Jane McLellan-Green, Operations and Sales Director, and James Jeremy, Technical Director, will continue in their roles at Gap 360.

Gap 360’s Managing Director, David Stitt, will retire after nearly 40 years in the travel industry.

“This acquisition marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for Gap 360. I am confident that Intrax will bring fresh opportunities for both our customers and the Gap 360 team,” Stitt said.

Headquartered in San Francisco, Intrax is a US Department of State designated J-1 Visa sponsor and has offered programs to over a million customers worldwide.
