Hospitality Internships

MAURITIUS

One of the primary hurdles for many hospitality students is the escalating cost of international internship programmes, largely due to the unfavorable rand-dollar exchange rate. These challenges have driven us to innovate and adapt. 

YDP’s passion for travel and our belief in its transformative power, especially for our South African Youth,  led us to look for more favourable opportunities that won’t break the bank. 

We have been exploring alternative destinations for our Hospitality students, negotiating partnerships with institutions in countries with a more cost effective programme.

YDP Work & Travel

are now in a position to provide exceptional opportunities for yourselves, helping you to gain invaluable international experience and to build successful careers that you can afford!
