Travel the Home Exchange Way!

Swap your home for a dream vacation

Established in 1985, Home Base Holidays has been helping people arrange home exchange vacations for over 25 years.

Home exchange is a mutual exchange of homes, usually at the same time, for a vacation in your own country or abroad. As home exchange is a direct swap of homes, there are no rental charges for either party, making it a very economical way to travel.

The advantages of a home exchange:

No hotel bills
Live like a native - experience a different culture first hand
Enjoy all the space, convenience and privacy of staying in a real home
Save on car rental costs by exchanging cars
More flexibility and freedom

Join Home Base Holidays and travel the home exchange way!
