Are you racking your brain to figure out what to get the jetsetter in your life? While gifting a trip may seem like an easy win in theory, it’s not exactly an affordable option!

Fortunately, finding unique gifts for travelers doesn’t have to be a source of stress this holiday season – or whenever you want to show your favorite frequent flier that you care.

And just because travelers tend to value experiences over things doesn’t mean they never want physical gifts. The key is to find useful, travel-friendly items to elevate their experiences!

Luckily, there’s no shortage of practical and unique travel gifts out there – and I’m sharing over 70 of them in this guide! With so many gift ideas for globetrotters to choose from, you’re sure to find that perfect present for the carry-on companion in your life.

Now that lost baggage has become the norm as airports struggle to manage travel demand, there’s a greater need than ever to be mindful of personal belongings. This is especially key when checking bags because they may not make it to the final destination!

Luckily, an Apple Airtag is the ticket to sanity in today’s times.

This nifty tracking device is compatible with the “Find My” app, allowing travelers to keep a watchful eye on their bags while on the go. Water- and dust-resistant, Apple Airtags are an affordable gift option that your travel buddy is sure to appreciate.

Besides, what could be better than gifting peace of mind?

If you subscribe to the belief that there’s “a place for everything and everything in its place,” then this next gift idea is a must if you’re planning to purchase the Apple Airtag.

The Airtag passport holder will help keep the tag safe and handy, ensuring it doesn’t get lost during tedious airport protocols.

These convenient holders also contain a compartment for storing a passport, cash, and other important travel documents that might be needed.

A passport holder is always a useful gift for travelers, but one with a designated place for a vaccine card is even better!

This all-in-one passport case ensures that the oh-so-important vaccine card won’t be left behind. It even includes a nifty viewing window to make getting through airport checkpoints a breeze.

While we’re on the topic of the c-word-which-shall-not-be-named, a portable air purifier is a great gift idea for the germ-conscious traveler.

A cleaning powerhouse, this portable purifier destroys airborne germs and viruses and even reduces unwanted odors for a clean travel environment. It can be easily transported in a carry-on and then set up in a hotel room for a breath of fresh air – literally!

One of the things I find most enviable in the travel world is when people can speak multiple languages. Just imagine being able to visit a completely new country and conversing with ease with all of the locals? What a dream that would be.

So if the traveler you’re shopping for this season has expressed interest in sharpening their language skills, why not consider gifting Rosetta Stone? With two dozen languages to choose from, the biggest struggle will be deciding what country to practice those new skills in first!

Another language-learning software to consider, Babbel is a subscription model with a downloadable app, perfect for those learning on the go.

With over a dozen languages to choose from, the Babbel software is compatible with laptops, desktops, and even phones!

While learning a language is an incredibly admirable feat, it’s definitely easier said than done! Sometimes a little help with translations can go a long way, which is where the two-way voice translator comes in.

Imagine being able to translate up to 82 languages in real time? Say goodbye to awkward interactions in unfamiliar cities with this awesome gift idea!

Want to give your loved one the gift of unlimited access to their favorite shows while on the go? The Amazon Fire Stick is the perfect stocking stuffer for those who don’t want to part with their binge-worthy series.

.

This clever gift idea will enable your travel lover to use a VPN such as Surf Shark or Nord VPN to access content from his/her home country via streaming services from anywhere in the world.

If selfie sticks give you the cringe the way they do for me, then I have the perfect gift alternative – a phone tripod.

Whether you’re gifting a present for a content creator or a traveler who wants to up their selfie game (without the embarrassing selfie stick in tow), a phone tripod is the way to go. Setting up the tripod is simple and the versatility is impressive – it can even extend up to 67 inches!

From checking the weather report, to using GPS to navigate, to searching for the best restaurants, a cell phone is essential when traveling. Obviously – and unfortunately – a cell phone is only useful when it’s charged, so if the person you’re shopping for is anything like me, battery drain is an all-too-common problem.

Enter the portable cell phone charger, a modern-day traveler’s best friend!

Yes, your loved one will have to remember to charge this as well, but this helpful backup option definitely comes in handy in a pinch!

Sometimes an outlet or two in a hotel room just isn’t going to cut it – especially if the traveler in your life has as much gear and electronics as I do! This can especially be an issue in historic hotels that were designed in a totally different time period.

A travel power strip can definitely come to the rescue in these cases, offering several outlets for charging multiple electronic devices simultaneously. Plus, this clever gift is lightweight and portable, fitting easily into a carry-on, double bonus!

While we’re on the topic of charging multiple devices at once, this wireless charging station is such a cool gift idea for Apple-obsessed travelers like me. (In fact, I think I’ll be treating myself to one!)

Charging up to three apple devices at a time, this nifty little station can be adjusted to your preferences, whether you wish to lay it flat or create a convenient charging stand.

Plus, with its sleek, compact design it travels super easily and can even charge Apple devices wirelessly!

Getting reliable internet overseas can be tricky, so why not give your jetsetter top-notch WiFi from anywhere?

Since laptops don’t offer a cell phone connection on their own, a WiFi International hotspot will allow your favorite traveler to connect to cell service in the area with a strong WiFi signal via a laptop.

With all of these awesome electronic gadgets in tow, your jetsetter is going to need somewhere to store them.

Luckily, this electronic organizer is a totally non-hideous, fashion-forward way to keep all the gadgets and gizmos close at hand.

The organizer is available in multiple colors and has removable padded dividers for tons of organization potential. It’s also water-resistant for the ultimate protection.

If your globetrotter is anything like me, then sleeping on a plane is about as easy as sleeping in an orthodontic chair during a root canal. (In other words, it’s not happening.)

As someone who has struggled to get shut-eye on a plane since I started traveling (and yes, I’ve tried every position imaginable other than stretching out in the aisle), I am not claiming that any of these next unique gifts for travelers is the magic sleeping elixir.

What I am suggesting is that they can make the flight experience more comfortable, especially on those nightmare-inducing long-haul journeys where every bit of comfort counts.

I am deeply intrigued by the infinity pillow craze. The big benefit here is that the pillow is adjustable, meaning it can be shaped into a position that works for the traveler, not the other way around. It’s the perfect combination of soft and supportive, offering neck and lumbar support while still feeling super comfortable.

So regardless of whether your frequent flier is seated in the aisle, the middle seat, or the window, the pillow can be tailored to the space.

One of the main challenges I personally deal with when flying is struggling to get my legs into a comfortable position. I always have the urge to stretch out when I’m feeling sleepy, but this is near impossible within the limited parameters of economy seating. (Where are my frugal flight friends at?)

Well, a foot hammock is specially designed so that a flight passenger can kick back, relax, and enjoy the flight!

This particular foot sling contains a double footrest with a separate space for each foot to maximize comfort. It can be easily attached to the back of the seat in front to provide a cozy spot for restless feet.

Sure, it may look a little silly, but hey, if it works, it works, right?

Between airplane announcements, flight attendants moving up and down the aisle, and crying babies, the plane isn’t exactly the most peaceful environment.

Fortunately, noise-cancelling headphones are a total game-changer.

Whether your travel pal is looking to doze off with some soothing ASMR in their ears or virtually escape with some in-flight entertainment, these headphones are a must.

As someone who thrives in a sleeping environment that would be enviable to vampire bats, I can appreciate the need for coffinesque darkness when bedtime rolls around. While achieving optimal darkness can be tricky at home, it can be downright maddening when traveling – starting with the flight.

No matter how you slice it, there are just way too many uncontrollable light-related variables when flying, from flashing iPad screens, to overhead lights, to that one person who refuses to shut their window (you know the one).

As you can probably gather, I’m a huge proponent of sleep masks for all of the above reasons, so imagine my excitement when I discovered this nifty Bluetooth option!

Is the person you’re shopping for this holiday always cold? If so, I know the struggle. It can be especially challenging to stay warm on a plane, even if you’re lucky enough to board a flight that hands out those thin rags veiled as “blankets.”

If that sounds familiar, it’s time to warm up to the idea of gifting the Zero Grid travel blanket. Not only is it warm and velvety-soft, but it also doubles as a human cocoon with a pouch for your feet and/or your passport, phone, etc.

Oh, did I mention it also converts into a pillow to support a stiff neck? That’s like giving two gifts for the price of one for under $30. It’s a no-brainer.

Why should kids have all the fun?

If your travel buddy gets restless on the plane and need an outlet to channel their energy, the adult activity book is the solution.

With fun and challenging puzzles, scrambles, and mazes to keep them busy, hours will fly by, no pun intended!

I think I’ll need to snag one or two of these for my next trip…

If you’re shopping for a traveler who likes to write, the travel journal with writing prompts is the perfect gift to get the creative juices flowing.

Unlike more traditional journals with daunting blank pages, the helpful prompts in this journal ensure that no memory is forgotten. Your travel buddy can record everything from itineraries and reminders, to transportation, to favorite foods around the world.

For your on-the-go bookworm buddy, you can’t go wrong with an Amazon Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition.

Instead of crowding up luggage with traditional books, the Kindle stores thousands of titles for on-demand reading. It even offers wireless charging for those times when an outlet isn’t available – and can charge for up to 10 weeks!

As a tea addict, one of the things I miss most when traveling is my morning tea and sometimes Lipton just isn’t going to cut it.

If you also have a traveling tea lover in your life, you can’t go wrong giving them the gift of a soothing morning cup with this portable travel kettle.

How did I get by for this long without knowing this was a thing? I knew about making coffee on the go (see the next item for this one), but tea?

By the way, the portable kettle boils water within five minutes – I believe that’s faster than my kettle at home!

Funnily enough, I’ve been wondering what to get my coffee-obsessed husband for the holidays and I think I’ve found my answer in this portable espresso maker!

If you’d also like to give the gift of invigorating espresso, this is one of the hottest options on the coffee market today. This mini powerhouse uses ceramic heating to fire up a max of two ounces of ground coffee (or a coffee capsule) at a clip.

Plus, it’s rechargeable and perfect for everything from camping adventures to general traveling where coffee isn’t a given. Cheers to that!

Speaking of outdoorsy, the LifeStraw collapsible water bottle was made for the Great Outdoors.

These water bottles pretty much do it all – they collapse to save space and come with a filter to remove harmful parasites, sand, and other unwelcome grossness in drinking water. Unsurprisingly, these bottles make the perfect hiking, cycling, and camping companions.

If wine is the preferred drink of choice, consider gifting this insulated wine tote bag instead.

This stylish bag can hold up to two wine bottles – or the adjustable compartments can be rearranged to carry tumblers. It’s perfect for a day at the beach, a romantic picnic, or any other relaxing adventures which would be improved with your traveler’s favorite wine!

In a world where you can give anything, I’d encourage you to give the gift of wonderful, life-long memories.

As a textbook-millennial traveler who definitely prefers adventures over stuff, I’m confident that gifting experiences is a home run for the traveler in your life.

In fact, I created a honeymoon registry during my wedding to fund our trip to Greece. (And oddly enough, that was the trip that inspired me to start this blog!)

That said, I understand that the whole “experiences over presents” craze is a newer concept, and I’ve seen more traditional folk struggle with it. I think there’s something of a generational stigma around gift cards, as though they’re cop-out gifts.

In my opinion, this is absolutely not the case, provided you get the right gift card. Not all gift cards are created equally! There are the “throwaway” ones you pick up at the local grocer and then there are gift cards that travelers will actually appreciate and, more importantly, use.

I’m not asking you to grab a gift card to the Olive Garden and check it off your list.

But what if you could gift your loved one a cooking class in an authentic Italian home, instead? Now we’re talking!

Here are some gift card ideas that travelers (like myself) will love and that are totally not a cop-out. (By the way, my birthday is on January 18, in case you’re wondering! ::hint hint::)

GetYourGuide is my go-to provider when it comes to booking travel experiences and tours around the world, but especially in Europe.

From guided walking tours, to e-bike winery tours, to cooking classes in local homes, to sunset catamaran cruises, there are near-endless possibilities.

Here’s how the GetYourGuide gift card works in three easy steps:

Step 1: You purchase a GetYourGuide gift card for the travel lover in your life.
Step 2: The gift card is delivered via email or snail mail (or you can dress it up in a snazzy gift box if you’re feeling fancy)!
Step 3: Your recipient decides how to use the card by choosing from thousands of amazing travel experiences around the globe!

Gift cards are valid for up to three years from when you purchase them, so your jetsetter will have plenty of time to decide exactly how/where to use it!

If you love the idea of gifting an experience but would prefer to do something more comprehensive than a tour, I suggest checking out Tinggly.

Tinggly specializes in experience gifts and getaway gifts in the form of gift boxes and evouchers.

Here’s how Tinggly Experience Gifts work in three easy steps:

Step 1: You select a gift box with a specific “theme” (there are dozens of themes to choose from such as discovering New York, the best experiences in Europe, the best helicopter rides, and much more).
Step 2: The box is delivered (or the e-voucher is emailed) to your recipient.
Step 3: The recipient picks a specific experience from the gift box for their next adventure.

With Tinggly, your travel lover isn’t locked into a specific activity and can instead choose what’s most appealing. And with over 100 experiences offered in over 100 countries, there are plenty to choose from!

One of the costliest expenses while traveling (at least for me) is accommodations. So trust me when I say, the travel lover in your life will super appreciate any financial help booking their next fabulous stay!

Gifting the Expedia.com Global Hotel gift card means your loved one can choose from over half a million accommodations in over 200 countries – and yes, this includes vacation rentals and private homes, too!

Does the traveler you’re shopping for prefer to stay exclusively in vacation homes and private rentals for a homier feel? If so, the Airbnb gift card is the perfect gift alternative.

With locations all over the globe, these awesome gifts never expire.

Transportation costs can add up pretty quickly while traveling, especially without a rental car. So why not give the gift of a free “lyft” (or two or three) with a Lyft gift card?

This gift card works solely with the Lyft platform so your travel buddy can literally just kick back and enjoy the free ride to their final destination!

Heads Up: the “delivery” method for the Lyft card is via email. You can either have this gift sent to your inbox and then wrap it up – or send it directly to your travel buddy.

Perhaps good ol’ Uber is more your speed? Not to worry, you can easily gift an Uber gift card instead! What’s awesome about this gift card is that the funds never expire, so your travel buddy has plenty of time to decide when/where to use it.

Delivery for the Uber gift card is also via email.

I’ve taken my fair share of Amtrak rides back in college and while the trains are super nice, the rides aren’t cheap! So why not take some weight off your travel lover’s shoulders with an Amtrak gift card?

Another option with convenient email delivery, these gift cards do not expire.

With the majority of cruise lines in full swing again, consider gifting a Princess Cruise Lines gift card for your boat-loving bestie.

This card is valid for any of the 17 Princess Cruise ships and the value does not expire.

As much as I love flying, booking flights is definitely my biggest expense as a travel blogger. While I’m pretty flexible with airlines, Delta is ultimately my favorite.

If your travel buddy is the same, then he or she will be delighted with the gift of a free/reduced flight with a Delta Airlines gift card!

Packing can be a traveler’s worst nightmare (at least that’s the case for me). Part of the challenge is just keeping on top of everything you need to bring. Personally, no matter what I do, I always seem to get that sinking feeling that I’ve forgotten something as I head to the airport.

Fortunately, if you’re shopping for a packing pessimist, this handy packing list notepad can help make the whole pre-trip experience much less daunting.

As someone with a lot of gear to lug around, My WANDRD backpack accompanies me on every trip.

I honestly can’t recommend this backpack enough. It’s designed with traveling content creators in mind. It has numerous storage areas and pockets (including clever hidden ones). It also includes a designated spot for your passport and a zipper compartment for easy access/removal of your camera cube for airport security.

Personally, I find charging devices to be a hassle while on the go, which is why this backpack with a USB charging port built in is so appealing!

Your travel buddy will just need to connect their own power bank to the interior and then enjoy a worry-free experience from there.

For a fashionable way to charge a phone without all of the messy wires and fuss, a commuter bag comes in, you guessed it – clutch. (Sorry, couldn’t resist!)

Seriously though, this bag is as cute as it is convenient. Charge up easily with the removable power bank or keep the phone inside the bag for discreetness. Did I mention it’s water-resistant, too?

You can never be too safe when it comes to luggage, especially when checking bags. Gift your travel buddy peace of mind with TSA-approved cable locks.

Not only are these a no-brainer for securing items, but lock-holders will also be able to discern if the TSA has opened any luggage when a button pops out from atop the lock.

Packing cubes may not sound like a very unique gift, but they’re certainly a useful one. Plus, these compression-style ones aren’t your average packing cubes.

These stylish packing cubes also feature a two-way opening with a center partition for clean and dirty clothes, making organization and cleanliness a breeze!

Another thing I’m majorly guilty of is bringing one too many hats with me when I’m traveling.

And with the way I’ve lugged them around, let’s just say their nomadic lifestyle is starting to show! Honestly, now that I know this hat travel case is a thing, I regret all the times I shoved my poor hats under the plane seat in front of me…

So if you’re shopping for a hat lover yourself, you’ve got this awesome gift in the bag (literally).

I always struggle to squeeze my shoes into my suitcase, and part of that struggle is the fear that they’ll rub up against my clean clothes.

Sound familiar?

If so, shoe bags are the answer!

This inexpensive gift option is oh-so-handy when it comes to packing. Plus, it’s something people tend to forget but could always use!

If your travel buddy also has trouble juggling a million different items while at the airport like I do, a luggage cup holder will help lighten the load. How convenient is this?

This is yet another one of those travel items I wish I knew about sooner…

A travel jewelry case is the perfect gift for your fashion-forward friends who always like to look put together, even when traveling.

This jewelry organizer has convenient compartments for necklaces, bracelets, earrings, and rings so your fashionista can avoid tangles and lost jewelry.

I’ve recently gotten into washing my clothing on trips because it saves me a good deal of space in my carry-on if I can just repeat outfits.

This portable travel clothesline is perfect for travelers who’d also like to be able to wash clothes on the go.

This handy clothesline can be used both indoors and outdoors and can be hooked onto pretty much anything, from shower stalls to trees. It also stretches up to 10 feet and then can be easily rolled up for a convenient fit into luggage.

If you’re gifting a fashion-forward traveler, a rattan bag is the perfect practical-meets-fashionable find.

I love how lightweight these bags are and they also photograph really nicely.

Plus, they go with so many different outfits, making them super versatile.

Sometimes a hotel room just doesn’t come with the added luxury of a hair dryer, which is why this portable option is such a useful gift idea.

Made for travelers, this blow dryer has a dual-voltage function with no need for an additional conversion plug when in Europe.

It’s always helpful to have a travel mirror that offers good lighting while traveling.

Whether you’re fixing makeup or dealing with a dim hotel room, this handy edition can work wonders for any on-the-go beauty routine.

Traveling with makeup can be a bit of a hassle without a good system in place. Luckily, this travel makeup brush holder is made of silicon, which is durable yet flexible, lightweight, and skin-friendly.

It’s also super easy to clean, which is ideal while on-the-go.

I’ll admit, I’m guilty of collecting one too many toiletry bottles from my trips. But this is largely because the quality isn’t great and I usually end up needing new ones!

These reusable silicone bottles are an eco-friendly alternative to the junky throw-away bottles you’ll find in convenience stores.

Plus, how cute is the pastel marble design? I think I’ll be adding these to my own shopping cart for my next trip!

Hygiene can be tougher to stay on top of while on the road, and I always miss my electric toothbrush when traveling.

If a cheap drugstore toothbrush isn’t cutting it for your favorite traveler either, then why not gift them this handy carry case?

Personally, I’ve given up on trying to keep clothes wrinkle-free in a suitcase. It’s a pretty impossible task, if you ask me. It also doesn’t help that I despise ironing more than any other chore, especially when I’m traveling.

Fortunately, if the traveler you’re shopping for also hates ironing and struggles to keep clothes looking passable for civilized society, then a portable travel steamer is a must.

Steaming clothes is far superior to ironing them in my opinion, and this nifty little steamer is my best friend on the road.

I’ll admit, I’m a total slipper junkie at home.

Yet for some reason, slippers are that one thing I can never seem to justify packing because of unwanted bulk. Then again, I always end up regretting my decision when my feet are cold and/or my socks get wet in my hotel room!

Honestly, these foldable slippers are genius for the slipper lover in your life.

With their compact, foldable design, there’s no need to justify adding extra bulk to luggage because they take up such a minimal amount of space!

If the traveler you’re shopping for is “doing it for the gram” with multiple outfit changes, then this pop up changing station will surely be a winner.

Plus, how cool is it that it can be discreetly tucked away in your bag one moment, and then popped up for a quick change virtually anywhere the next? This definitely beats trying to find the nearest public restroom or ducking behind a tree to change (yes, I’ve been there).

I’m also including this nifty umbrella under “garment care,” as it’s perfect for rainy destinations where outfits tend to get destroyed!

Yes, umbrellas are a pain to travel with…unless, of course, it’s a foldable and clear umbrella.

No more trying to squeeze an umbrella into an already-stuffed suitcase with this discreet option. Plus, the clear design means it photographs nicely without any bothersome obstructions to the surrounding scenery. Double win!

For the outdoorsy friend who is always at the beach or camping, you can’t go wrong with a handy microfiber travel towel.

These lightweight towels fold up into a small carrying case and can easily be tossed in with carry-on items. Plus, they repel sand, so you can be sure personal items stay clean and dry.

In addition to a travel towel, you may want to consider gifting a foldable beach blanket as well.

This handy sand-proof blanket can easily fold up into its accompanying drawstring bag. It even comes with four stakes to secure it to the ground on those super windy days at the beach.

Don’t you hate carrying home a soggy bathing suit after a day at the beach? I know I do.

This waterproof wet bag is a super affordable gift that will definitely come in handy for your beachy buds.

With its water-resistant lining, wet garments stay separated from other belongings for a clean, dry, non-gross environment.

If you’re gifting that music-loving beach bum or outdoor enthusiast in your life, you can’t go wrong with a waterproof Bluetooth speaker.

This compact speaker easily connects with a phone and can tag along wherever adventure awaits, whether that’s on the beach, on a hike, or in an outdoor shower surrounded by nature. It can even play your traveler’s favorite tunes for up to 12 hours when fully charged. (Dance lessons not included!)

A waterproof phone case is the perfect gift for photo-loving beach bums, especially if they don’t already have a phone that can get wet!

This pack of two is perfect for someone who has two phones to protect – or someone who’d enjoy having back-up protection.

Although the cases are conveniently 100-feet IPX8 certified waterproof, they still allow for touch-screen functionality so swimmers won’t miss a beat.

If your travel friend is the type to “do it for the gram” on beach days, an inflatable pool/beach floatie is the perfect photo-friendly accessory.

While there are a variety of shapes and styles to choose from, I’m partial to the flamingo myself!

And in case you’re wondering how this inflatable life of the party gets blown up in the first place, it can be brought to life with a toy air pump or even a hairdryer.

I’m always for saving space where I can while traveling, and if your beach bum is the same, these polarizing foldable sunglasses just may be the ideal gift.

With polarizing lenses and a portable/foldable design, these sunglasses can get ridiculously compact, taking up almost no room at all in a beach bag. They even come with a lifetime warranty.

Now, if the traveler you’re buying for is known to travel with more than a single pair of sunglasses, this next gift idea may be more fitting.

This sunglasses organizer case safely holds up to five pairs, keeping them protected and free of scratches.

The case can then be rolled up to fit easily into a travel bag or other luggage.

Travel inspiration can start with something as simple as a single photo. These travel-focused books offer visual inspiration in addition to helpful insight into some of the world’s most desirable destinations.

The Bucket List: 1,000 Adventures Big & Small is the perfect book to jumpstart inspiration for even the most seasoned travelers.

Featuring 1,000 once-in-a-lifetime activity ideas across the seven continents, this book is not only a traveler’s best friend but a real conversation starter! Give the gift of travel inspiration via 300 wanderlust-inducing photos.

Shopping for a seasoned U.S. traveler? Or perhaps you’d like to inspire a friend to visit the United States for the first time? Either way, 50 States, 5,000 Ideas is the perfect way to get your jetsetter started.

From the experts at National Geographic, this book outlines the top travel experiences in each of the 50 U.S. states, from highlights to hidden gems. In addition to insightful travel tips, the book also includes fun facts about each state for educational context on America the Beautiful.

As a huge Rick Steves fan, I couldn’t complete this list without recommending one that he’s penned himself!

Rick Steves Best of Europe features just that – the unmissable sights in some of Europe’s most popular destinations, including England, France, Spain, Italy, Germany, the Netherlands, and Switzerland.

As is the Rick Steves way, your travel companion can expect to find everything from handy itineraries, to what to pack, to tips for avoiding tourist traps.

As someone with a strong penchant for the supernatural, I couldn’t resist including this gem on the list. National Geographic Guide to the World’s Supernatural Places includes 250+ “spine-chilling” destinations around the globe.

Whether your globetrotter is looking to get down with demons, hunt down haunted hideaways, or wander in search of witchcraft, this is their ticket to the macabre!

Just, you know, maybe don’t leave them alone with the book for too long…

Not all travel gifts have to be practical, on-the-go presents. Part-time travelers with a stable home base may also really appreciate travel-themed decorative gifts for around the home. These can serve as a reminder of their favorite destinations, special trips, and even as inspiration for booking future travels.

For map enthusiasts looking to spruce up their living spaces with non-traditional décor, the Enjoy the Wood map is a perfect gift.

This 3-dimensional world map is a handmade gift your favorite traveler will cherish. Made from meticulously-engraved birch plywood, this map is sure to add visual interest to any space. Plus, it comes with double-sided sticky tape for non-invasive assembly.

That said, if you decide to gift this beautiful handcrafted item, part of your gift should also be helping your traveler assemble it, as it takes about two to three hours!

If you’d prefer to go a more traditional gift-giving route with a “flat” map, that doesn’t mean your gift has to be boring. In fact, the scratch-off world map is anything but!

A scratch map is perfect for country-counting travelers who get a thrill when checking – or scratching – a new country off the bucket list. This stylish map comes with a scratcher so your favorite traveler can easily reveal new places visited after returning home.

Socking away large sums of money in the bank can bring in interest, but what about that loose change hanging around that would otherwise be thrown away at Starbucks? Why not give your favorite traveler a fun and visual way to save up for adventures?

A transparent travel money box builds excitement as the money accumulates.

Sure, saving money isn’t exactly fun – but it can definitely be more of an anticipated activity once your globetrotter sees those travel funds start adding up!

If you’re purchasing a gift for the holiday season, then a 2023 travel wall calendar will certainly be a timely gift idea.

This beautiful 12-month wall calendar features stunning landmarks and breathtaking natural scenes to give your favorite traveler a daily dose of wanderlust.

Whew! That brings us to the end of this massive round-up of unique gifts for travelers. I hope by now I’ve given you an idea or two (or 37) for the special traveler in your life.

Which of these unique travel gifts do you think your frequent flier will appreciate the most? And will you be treating yourself to any of these special travel goodies this holiday? Let me know in the comments below!
