Travel is so much more than just a trip. It’s that feeling when you step off the plane, heart racing with excitement. The conversations that change your world view. The moments that make you realize there’s more out there than you ever imagined. That’s the kind of adventures we live for — and the kind we help create.
KILROY is a global youth and student travel specialist with deep roots in Europe, and a newer presence here in the UK. Founded in 1991, we’ve spent more than 30 years helping young people explore the world through gap years, group adventures, working holidays and study placements. Today, we’re the largest youth and student travel agency in the Nordic region, with teams across eight European markets — and we’re proud to now bring that same experience, expertise and care to travellers in the UK.
TRIPS MADE FOR THE BOLD & THE CURIOUS
Some trips fade from memory. Others change the way you see the world. This is for those who go all in - who hike volcanoes at sunrise, dive into unknown waters, and say yes to the kind of stories you can’t make up. Travel isn’t just about places - it’s about everything you experience along the way.
TAILORED JUST FOR YOU
No two travellers are the same, so why should their trips be? You bring the ideas, we bring the expertise. Flights, insurance, hostels, campervans, adventure tours - you name it, we can book it. And unlike that endless scroll through Google, our Travel Experts know what works. We’ll tailor a trip that fits your budget, your crew, your travel style, and your biggest dreams - because the best adventures aren’t one-size-fits-all.
BY EXPERTS WHO LIVE FOR THIS STUFF
We’re not just travel planners. We’re travellers, like you. We’ve backpacked, studied abroad, surfed, road-tripped, and worked around the world. We’ve made the mistakes, learned the tricks, and know the difference between a travel dream and a travel disaster. That’s why we do what we do - so you can explore with confidence, knowing we’ve got your back from the moment you start planning to the day you come home.
