Having well-documented records of their adventures is almost as sweet as the experience itself. There are endless options available, but any travel journal makes a thoughtful gift that is sure to be appreciated. Portable Power Bank There’s nothing worse than having to ration your phone battery when out exploring. A portable power bank is sure to be appreciated by the travel lover in your life. Give the gift of copious photos on their next adventure by ensuring they never run out of battery. We loved this portable power bank for our latest trip to Italy. Wireless Headphones From planes to trains, the travel aspect of adventuring isn’t always glamorous. A quality pair of wireless headphones eases the strain, and they even come in handy for various audio tours. This pair didn’t break the bank and proved very useful as we made our way through Italy this past spring. Bug Repellant Scarf/Shawl If you’re looking for a unique but useful gift for the travel lover in your life, a bug repellant scarf is the gift they never knew they needed. Perfect for layering whether you find yourself exploring the city or camping. Opt for a neutral color that will allow them to match several outfits. Wrinkle Resistant Lightweight Pants Packing light shouldn’t mean sacrificing style. Any frequent traveler will be sure to appreciate a pair of packing friendly pants that offer both comfort and convenience. These are a staple in any of our carry-ons. Camera Speaking of copious photos, a quality camera is a great splurge present for those travel enthusiasts closer to you. For a beginner-friendly option, consider the Canon EOS R100. If they already have a camera they love, there are plenty of accessories that would make great gifts as well. Luggage Even the most budget conscious traveler knows the value of quality luggage. A hard shell luggage set is sure to impress. Backpack A quality backpack can be a great gift option that doubles as a carry-on for the travel lover in your life. They are sure to appreciate the flexibility of having a bag that also offers convenience as they explore the city or the countryside. Depending on what type of travel they often do, there are lots of options with various features from waterproof materials to built in packing cubes available in a range of prices sure to fit your gift budget.
