2024 Update: We’ve checked that all of these fabulous travel gifts for women are still available and we’ve replaced some gifts with others where needed. As for what’s new this year, we found this shop on Etsy that specialises in candles inspired by travel destinations around the world. Very cool! Speaking of candles, we’re loving this surprise trip candle , which can be personalised with the date and location of your trip, as well as a cute message. Also, if you’re struggling to find the Travel Hack Tote Bag we’ve recommended previously, then this one from the same company is very similar.

Travel-Inspired Stocking Fillers Under £15

Whether you’re loading up on stocking fillers or you simply don’t want to break the bank, take a look at these travel gifts for women under £15, which she is sure to love!

Who doesn’t love opening cute little gifts found inside stockings or hiding among Christmas tree branches? An enamel pin is perfect for this and there are so many travel-inspired designs to choose from like this cute ‘Wild & Free’ pin , these fun instant photo pins and this pin with a wanderlust mountain scene on it .

Handmade HopeForExcel Gifts (currently unavailable)

We’ve recently discovered this local seller on Etsy who makes beautiful African-inspired greeting cards and jewellery – with all profits going to a charity that supports five primary schools in the poorest parts of Nairobi. So at the same time as buying a unique travel-inspired stocking filler, you’ll also be supporting a great cause! You can find her cards and gifts on Etsy , or read more about this project here .

2024 Update: The HopeForExcel shop is currently “taking a break”, but we still wanted to include it in our gift guide as the owner may reopen her shop again soon. Let’s hope so!

Help the chic traveller in your life ditch the one-off plastic bags used in airport security by buying them a clear cosmetics bag that they can use time and time again. Not only is this better for the environment, but it also means they won’t have to waste precious time at the airport transferring their toiletries into a plastic bag. They’ll be security-ready before they’ve even left the house! 

Take a look at these ones, which are pretty and useful:

• 3-pack pink cosmetics bags
• Black & gold cosmetics case
• 3-pi ece marble cosmetics bags

Bonus Gift Idea: Scott and I have also recently bought this set of colourful travel bottles , which are good quality and already come inside a clear cosmetics bag that can be used over and over again. We definitely recommend them as a useful stocking filler!

Oh, how times have changed since I first started travelling! Today, you can buy makeup travel mirrors like this pretty rose gold one , which fold up oh-so-neatly and even have little LED beauty spotlights inside them. Useful, pretty, and perfect as a stocking filler for travel lovers!

Okay, they’ve got a clear cosmetics bag and makeup travel mirror; now they need their favourite toiletries and cosmetics! If the travel lover in your life has a favourite beauty brand, find out whether their products come in bottles of less than 100ml ( like Sanctuary Spa’s products inside this kit ) – and just like that, you’ve got a whole bunch of stocking fillers she can use on her next getaway.

Whether she’s travelling this year, next year or beyond, you can never go wrong with an in-flight essentials kit. Especially these days, a lot of us are more safety-conscious than before and we don’t leave the house without hand sanitiser. So, a kit like this is sure to be a hit! You could put everything together yourself, or you can buy ready-made kits like the ones from Pinch Provisions .

Shampoo bars are a fabulous travel gift for women ( and men, actually! ) for two reasons. They help to reduce plastic waste and they don’t count towards your 100ml liquid allowance if travelling hand luggage only. There are lots of cosmetics brands to choose from, but if you’re not sure which to go for, then I’d either go with something from Lush or this orange and ginger one from Amazon .

A collapsible water bottle is another stocking filler we recommend for travel lovers as they help you to drink more, save a bit of money and roll up into a small size when they’re empty, so you’re not taking up unnecessary space in your suitcase or backpack. Check out this one on Amazon as it’s got great reviews and won’t bust the bank!

Personalised Leather Luggage Tags

For an oh-so-charming stocking filler, you can’t go wrong with personalised luggage tags. Sadly, the shop where I originally bought mine from is marked as “taking a break” on Etsy, but these ones are a great alternative. Their design is simple and pretty and the luggage tags are in high demand!

Why not also buy her a personalised passport holder to match her new luggage tags? Or you could go for a completely fresh look like this pretty floral design or this fun travel quote design . The choices are endless!

What kind of stocking doesn’t also have a few novelty gifts thrown in amongst all the practical ones? Here’s an idea for travel lovers: candles that smell like places! There are websites like Homesick and shops on Etsy like WanderlustCandleCoUK that specialise in these kinds of candles. For example, transport them to Hawaii with candles that smell like pineapple or coconut (or both!), or to Canada with maple syrup candles , or to Indonesia with lemongrass and ginger candles . And if they’re feeling homesick for the UK? Try a fruity concoction inspired by our autumnal hedgerows .

Speaking of travel-inspired candles, if you’re planning on surprising her with a trip, then why not let her know through a “surprise trip” candle like this one ? You can choose the scent and personalise the design to show where you’re going and when. You can even leave her a little personalised note on the candle. I love it!

Packing cubes are a great budget travel gift if you know she doesn’t have any already, or if she’s clearly struggling with the concept of “packing light”! Plus, compression packing cubes are well worth the extra bit of money as you can fit loads more clothes in them than standard packing cubes. Check out these pretty pink and gold ones , which are useful and oh-so-chic at the same time!

Okay, so you may struggle with fitting a travel pillow inside her stocking (unless it’s a big one!), but they’re a great gift under £15 all the same. Go for an ultra-soft travel pillow to give her some added luxury during her flight like this soft memory foam one or one of these cute Kawaii-inspired ones .

Cute little travel jewellery boxes like these ones on Etsy are great stocking fillers! They’re pretty, personalised and practical. What more could you want?! I especially like the ones that have pretty cursive writing on the top as they’re so chic and feminine. We won’t tell if you want to buy one for yourself either, they’re hard to resist!

Does she love trips to Disney World or Disneyland? Awesome, she’s our kind of people! Why not transport her (virtually!) or get her ready for her next Disney trip by buying her something Disney-inspired? You could buy her a fun Disney t-shirt or vest top , some Disney-inspired jewellery or even some Minnie Mouse ears , which she can wear now and on her next Disney trip! Sorted.

Chic Jetsetter Gift Guide: Affordable Travel Gifts For Women Under £50

And now for our Chic Jetsetter Gift Guide! Most of these travel gifts for women are on the cheaper end of the scale (most of them are around £30), so they still won’t break the bank! You’re welcome.

If your favourite travel lover is also a travel blogger like me, then she’ll need somewhere to jot down blog ideas during her trips. And if she’s not a travel blogger, then a travel journal is still a great idea as she can use it like a scrapbook or diary when she’s away travelling! Why not make this gift even more special by getting her a personalised travel journal? We love th is cute pastel blue one and this faux leather journal , which is perfect for outdoor lovers and adventurers!

We book all our day tours through Get Your Guide as it’s easy to do online and they have a super generous 24-hour cancellation policy! So why not buy your loved one a Get Your Guide gift card and let her pick from over 35,000 incredible experiences, day trips and tours from all over the world?!

Help your favourite travel lover travel in style during their next trip with a fashionable travel backpack. We’ve scoured the interwebs and found a whole bunch of great ones, which you can see in this blog post . But if we had to choose just one for female travellers, it would be the Travel Hack Backpack , which is stylish in black and rose gold and practical with lots of pockets and compartments! Check prices on Amazon or read my full review here .

Who doesn’t love a bit of travel-inspired decor dotted around their home? Throw pillows are an affordable gift, but because there are so many different styles to choose from, it’s also a unique gift. We particularly like this fun destination pillow , this sweet “Follow Your Dreams” pillow and this cute “We Are Happy Campers” pillow .

Get your favourite travel lover ready for their next weekend jaunt to the coast or epic road trip with a chic weekend bag or holdall. We think she’ll like this gorgeous nautical-inspired set , this practical grey one and this pretty floral patterned one .

Insta-Famous Travel Books

We’re big fans of pretty coffee table travel books as they’re a great way to escape virtually from the comfort of your sofa and they make great decor items! Here are a few that I’ve personally loved reading and that are big hits with other female travellers too:

• World of Wanderlust
• Pretty City London: Discovering London’s Beautiful Places
• Pretty City New York: Discovering New York’s Beautiful Places
• How To Be Parisian: Wherever You Are

Not all hotels offer hairdryers when you arrive. Hostels certainly don’t. And if they do, they’re usually cheap ones that take ages to dry long hair anyway. So, why not treat your favourite travel lover to her very own pint-sized hairdryer? This BaByliss one is pretty great – and especially for the price!

If you know she travels with a fair bit of makeup and toiletries during her trips, then definitely check out hanging cosmetics bags like this one . They come in a range of colours and designs and you can fit a fair amount inside them. You can also hang them up on the back of the door or cupboard to stop everything from getting wet.

I don’t know a single woman who doesn’t love receiving jewellery as gifts, and when they’re travel lovers, there are so many different designs to choose from! Here are a few of my favourites, which I’m sure she’ll like too:

• World Map Necklace
• Explorer Heart Bracelet
• Compass Necklace
• Personalised St Christopher Pendant
• The Jetsetter Bracelet Pack

I could never be without my travel organiser as it makes finding my passport, boarding pass and other travel documents a breeze (even when I’m using a large handbag or cabin bag!) But, you can also go one step further and get an RFID travel organiser to help protect her documents. I adore this pretty-in-pink one from Amazon .

We were gifted some Tesalate beach towels a couple of years ago and we’ve used them on all of our trips since. Why? They’ve got fantastic vibrant patterns on them, they’re fast-drying, and are made of a different kind of material, which is designed to leave sand on the beach. And they really work! Considering we’ve carted them all over the world with us for over 18 months now, they still look like new, so we’re pretty confident that they’re long-lasting too! Take a look at Tesalate’s website – they have so many colours and patterns to choose from!

I’ve recently had the pleasure of testing out the Travel Hack Tote bag (designed by Cabin Max and The Travel Hack) – and I love it! You can read my full review here. This bag would make a fantastic travel gift for the lady in your life as it’s got a stylish design, tons of practical pockets and features, and is simply perfect for weekend getaways! Check it out on Amazon now.

2024 Update: For some reason, the Travel Hack Tote Bag is showing as unavailable at the moment. Interestingly, this one looks very similar and is also designed by Cabin Max.

Frequent Traveller Gift Guide: Luxury Travel Gifts For Women Over £50

And finally, if you want to splurge a little on someone special then here are our picks of fabulous travel gifts for women over £50.

Scott recently bought me the Travel Hack Pro Cabin Case for my birthday and I am in love with it! You can read my full review here , but the gist of it is that this cabin-friendly suitcase is luxurious and stylish, packed full of lots of different pockets and compartments including a handbag compartment, and is much more affordable than you might think! Check the latest prices on Amazon here .

instax Polaroid Camera + instax Smartphone Printer

Instagram is having a bit of a moment these days where lots of travellers are starting to share real film photos or Polaroids. Not to mention it’s always nice to be able to stick cute polaroids on your fridge or notice board or include them within scrapbooks and gifts. Take a look at the instax Polaroid Camera and matching smartphone printer so she can try it out herself!

To help your favourite travel lover get ready for their next big trip, consider treating them to a travel subscription box. We’ve recently reviewed a whole bunch of travel subscription boxes here , but if you’re short on time, then here are our favourites for female travellers:

• The Happy Glamper Travel Subscription Box
• Wanderkarma Travel Box

When you know she already has everything she could possibly need for travelling, help make her next trip an even more memorable one by giving her a unique travel experience. You could buy a specific experience from somewhere like Virgin Experience Days or BuyAGift . But we’ve also recently heard about Tinggly , which is another travel gift experience company – but with two major differences. First, there’s no expiration date on the experience! And second, each gift box allows your favourite traveller to choose their own experience in countries all over the world! Cool, huh?!

The best gifts for travellers that are sure to take flight

By Jessie Atkinson , Daphne Bugler and Thomas Barrie

From luxury luggage to toiletries, here are the best gifts for travellers who are always on the move.

Whether they’re always away on business, they have family abroad or half of their heart is in Havana, finding a gift for travellers often boils down to the same thing: what would make their lives easier or more exciting while on the road? It’s a question we’ve considered closely when compiling the following list of items that we think would delight any frequent flyer come their birthday or Valentine's Day.

From big overhauls such as a brand new Away suitcase to smaller bits that’ll aid the journey (an Arket hoodie is an aeroplane must), to commemorative items for remembering the big gap year abroad, we’d like to think we have all bases covered. So, before we dive in on a niche corner of the best gifts for men and best gifts for women , here are our top picks.

What are the best gifts for travellers in 2024?

Antler Packing Cubes

The secret of the impeccably prepared is finally out: they've been using packing cubes this whole time. We like Antler's for longevity, practicality and attractiveness.

Abercrombie hoodie

Abercrombie

The aeroplane essential that will keep on providing stylish comfort well after the wheels have touched tarmac.

Aspinal of London Leather Passport Cover

Aspinal of London

A personalised must for anyone whose passport spends more time out of the man drawer than in it.

Only now becoming wildly popular on platforms such as TikTok, packing cubes have long been the secret for the impeccably-prepared. Best for longer trips in which outfits or clothing types can be separated neatly from toiletries and underwear, Antler’s set of four are some of our current faves. £50. antler.co.uk

Lululemon ABC jogger

You can rest assured that where comfort is concerned, Lululemon, our go-to for athleisurewear, always comes through. These skinny joggers are designed using ABC technology to remove tension and ensure they have a comfortable fit across the body with a four-way stretch design. Pair these with a hoodie and consider their airport look sorted. £118. lululemon.co.uk

The White Company Cashmere Socks

Long haul flights sometimes call for compression socks, but for those who throw caution to the winds, nothing beats cashmere. An extra comfort during a time of deep discomfort. £36. thewhitecompany.com

Gymproluxe Resistance Bands

Not all hotel gyms are created equal, a fact that frequent flyers and those who conduct plenty of business overseas will know more than most. Well, what if we told you they didn’t even have to step foot into the lobby gym ever again? Gymproluxe’s set of resistance bands provide a full-body workout in a bundle that’ll fit in a weekend bag. £179.99 £129.95. gymproluxestore.com and amazon.co.uk

Custom Map Tumbled Marble Coasters

When your globetrotter returns, they may want to talk about their travels ad nauseam. Allowing them to do so is a generous show of love on your part, one you can supercharge by giving them another prompt: this set of tumbled marble coasters with a portion of their favourite destination printed on it. £77. At uncommongoods.com

Chilly’s Water Bottle

Simple but essential, a water bottle that will last forever is both a convenience and an ethical obligation in a world where plastic abounds. Chilly’s make some of the best in the business, in every colour under the sun. £24. At chillys.com and amazon.co.uk

Abercrombie Hoodie

A touchstone of modern comfort, the hoodie is so much more than just an easy outfit topper come that 15th hour of consecutive travel. A soft and cosy respite from the cold, dry aeroplane AC and a portable duvet on overnight transfers. £65 £49.99. abercrombie.com

By Owen Gough

By Jessie Atkinson

Lonely Planet YOLO Book

There are travel gifts for the travelling itself, and there are travel gifts for plotting and reminiscing when back at home. Here’s a perfect example of the latter in the form of one of Lonely Planet’s ever-tremendous books, which will act as rocket fuel when it comes to planning their next adventure. £19.99. At oliverbonas.com and amazon.co.uk

Casio A164WA-1VES Watch

One end of the financial spectrum that makes up the world of watches, a Casio has as much recognisability as a timepiece worth 100 times its cost. A sensible idea for someone going off-grid where charging points are sparing and only their phone to tell the time. £32.90. casio.co.uk

Rains Wash Bag

We love Rains’ apparel, so it’s no surprise that its travel accessories get a thumbs-up too. Like its jackets, this unisex wash bag is made from a smooth, waterproof fabric and is finished with a water-repellent zipper and webbing carry handle. A smaller bag is available, but this one will easily accommodate all the toiletries they’re taking. £39. rains.com

Apple AirTag

Even the most organised of travellers can get lost in the fog of jet lag. Gift them a few AirTags to affix to their most important things and you'll give them peace of mind on the way out of remote locations it wouldn't be so easy to return to. £29. At johnlewis.com

Papier Travel Journal

It’s hard to argue that planning and reminiscing are just as enjoyable as the thing itself, and that’s why many a travel nut will also be an obsessive archivist. For those sketching out a regiment for their upcoming trip, Papier’s personalised journal should scratch the itch. £29. papier.com

Built for Athletes Rucksack

An in-between rucksack for the medium-term backpacker, Built for Athletes' multi-pocketed bag may be designed for the gym, but it also makes an ideal carry-on for those who don't mind forgoing the convenience of 360 degree wheels. Just add packing cubes. £119.99. builtforathletes.com

Arcwave Voy Male Masturbator

A masturbator for the road, the Arcwave Voy isn’t only our favourite male masturbator , it’s also discrete enough to travel with. What, this? A portable speaker, of course, officer. £65. arcwave.com & amazon.co.uk

Insta360 Go 3

Weighing a mere 35g and boasting a compact structural design, the Insta360 Go 3 stands as the epitome of portability in the market, particularly when you take into account the cleverly designed magnets and grip accessories that will allow you to mount this in any corner you can think of. Boasting a video resolution of 2.7k at 30fps and gyro stabilisation, this will safely cover all the needs of most content creators on the go. £359.99. store.insta360.com

Treat Republic sundial and compass

Take things back to basics with a gift that can be stowed away in their luggage for many an expedition. Constructed from polished brass, it comes in a protective pouch to keep it safe on their travels and can be personalised with up to 90 characters, accommodating anything from initials to a heartfelt message or their favourite quote. £65. At johnlewis.com

Liberty Travel Chess Set

To travel often or for long periods is to encounter bags of time that need to be filled. When films, crosswords and TikToks get old, they could always pull out the Liberty London printed chess set you kindly bought them. Complete with pegs to offset potential turbulence. £34.99. libertylondon.com

The North Face Nuptse jacket

In the context of The North Face’s resurgence as the grail coat of roadmen and rappers alike, it can be hard to remember just how warm and practical they are, fashion considerations aside. Whether they’re planning a ski trip or just a week or two in baltic New York in January, the Nuptse somehow manages to be both simultaneously breathable and impenetrable to cold. £315. thenorthface.co.uk

Apple AirPods Max

The big daddy of over-ear headphones, Apple's AirPods Max aren't only the accessory to be seen with in the airport, but some of our favourites for tuning out the world. £499. At amazon.co.uk

Antler Chelsea Backpack

Sometimes a product comes along that everyone feels they must cop: a bottle of Le Labo Santal 33, a Carhartt duck canvas jacket. Gentlemen, this time it has happened with a backpack, namely Antler’s ‘Chelsea’, a simple and slick travelling grail that slips onto suitcase handles and has acres of space inside. £140. antler.co.uk & amazon.co.uk

Hidden Pocket Scrunchies

An inevitable result of women's clothing failing to come with pockets? Anything that isn’t a handbag with the capacity to carry things around in is a real thrill. Imagine our delight upon finding this set of scrunchies with hidden compartments! Imagine hers! £23. At uncommongoods.com

Leather tech roll organiser

Leather tech roll might sound like an up-and-coming underground band (and it very well might be), but in this instance, its meaning is more literal. Crafted from soft, natural cowhide leather and suede, this rollbag is specifically designed to house all manner of tech accessories, from chargers and cables to plugs and miniature battery packs. With the option for personalised name debossing, it’s the ultimate gift for organised travellers with a hankering for luxury. £59. At notonthehighstreet.com

The Hanging Toiletry Bag

The point of Away’s hanging toiletry bag is simple: arrive at the Airbnb/hotel room/friend’s borrowed apartment, chuck your stuff in the wardrobe, then unzip the toiletry bag and hang it in the bathroom for instant access to your razor, shampoo , moisturiser , and whatever else you need to freshen up after your journey. A nice idea, at a reasonable price. £60. a waytravel.com

Aspinal Of London Passport Cover

When all else fails, get a passport holder. Aspinal Of London does some of the very best, with a cornucopia of colours to choose from and free embossing currently on offer. Crafted from the finest Italian leather, the inside is lined with butter-soft suede, plus there’s a handy grosgrain ribbon marker allowing you to find those stamped pages with ease. £85. aspinaloflondon.com

Fragrance Miniatures

A worthy gift for the presents that cost £20 and under file if ever we saw one, hand over a set of five miniature fragrances to the person who’s forever travelling — and forever bemoaning their inability to pack full-size bottles in their cabin bag. This LookFantastic-curated set comes with a £10 voucher that they can redeem against a full-size version of their favourite spritz. £10. At lookfantastic.com

Arket Duffle Bag

While the 72-hour in this product's name is more of a guideline than a hard upper limit, we agree that Arket’s duffle bag is best utilised for a long weekend away. Compact and hardy in nylon, it features several pockets for items including a laptop, passport, paperback and charger – as well as for whatever outfit you plan to wear around Milan/Copenhagen/Porto/Vienna (take your pick). £159. arket.com

Gymshark Joggers

Swim shorts , SPF and sandals aside, a pair of joggers may well be the most popular travel companion. Why? Well, first of all, there’s the plane journey. But there’s also those long, slow hours between pool and dinner time, when being comfortable in the hotel room is of utmost importance. We like Gymshark's for comfort and affordability. £36. gymshark.com

Personalised Stamp Destination print

Completely customisable, these prints are designed specifically for travellers, incorporating nine stamps, each representing a destination of your choosing. Whether you want them to remember a specific trip or you just pick their favourite cities, this is a gift that really shows you care (and that you actually listen when they’re recounting their holidays). £25. At notonthehighstreet.com

Away luggage tag

We love the pale blue pebbled look of Away’s luggage tag, which (like, uh, all luggage tags) will help make sure your bags don’t go missing in transit or on the baggage carousel. Personalisation options are included, and it matches the colour of Away’s very handsome suitcases, too. £20. awaytravel.com

Osprey Daylite Plus day pack

In forest green, Osprey’s light day pack can be put to good use as a hiking rucksack or a workday bag just the right size for a laptop (it includes a dedicated inner sleeve), book and papers. It also happens to be the perfect size for a carry-on bag on most airlines. £70. At osprey.com & amazon.co.uk

Harber London Leather Macbook Sleeve

Mac products are famously beautiful, but they’re also famously expensive, so help your loved one avoid tragedy with Harber’s sleek leather case. If Don Draper had a laptop cover, it would look like this. £85. harberlondon.com

Away suitcase

As far as good suitcases go, few come close to Away’s collection. The Bigger Carry-On is sized to perfection: it’s spacious enough for all of the essentials and then some while also being designed to fit in the overhead bins of most airlines. Basics aside, its features go above and beyond the usual, with an ejectable USB charger, a TSA-approved combination lock, 360-degree spinner wheels and a hidden laundry bag that means dirty clothes can be kept separately. £235. At awaytravel.com and amazon.co.uk

Resort Co. Swim Shorts

Sustainably made and likely to last a lifetime, The Resort Co. makes some of our favourite swim shorts . As primed for poolside drinks and dinner in the old town as much as it is actual swimming, these are a travel gift for the perennial sunseeker. £156. theresortco.com

Fjällräven Kånken travel wallet

Swedish clothing and luggage brand Fjällräven (it means “Arctic fox”) has been making to-die-for bags and outdoor gear since 1960. This travel wallet encapsulates the brand perfectly: colourful, sturdy and tastefully understated, it’s a practical way to keep track of travel essentials like headphones, chargers, money and passports. £60. fjallraven.com

Sol De Janeiro Miniatures

The world has gone stark raving mad for Sol De Janeiro and its smoothing, deliciously-scented lotions and potions. In this jet-setting bundle of miniatures, find shower cream gel, body mist and the impossibly popular Bum Bum body cream, all in carry-on-friendly sizes. £30. At lookfantastic.com

Amazon Kindle

Amazon's latest Kindle is its lightest and most compact model to date, making it an ideal companion for travellers looking to entertain themselves in a world of near-unlimited books, without taking up too much precious space in their luggage. With an even longer battery life of up to six weeks per charge, you won't need to worry about juicing it up either. £159.99. At amazon.co.uk

Liberty Lee Manor compact umbrella

You can never have too many umbrellas, not least Liberty print umbrellas which are ideal to throw into a suitcase or an overcoat pocket when the weather forecast for a city break is patchy. We’ve plumped for the somewhat ornate paisley Lee Manor design, but there are options for everyone, including both more and less ostentatious umbrellas. £45 £36. libertylondon.com

Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark IV Mirrorless Camera

If they’re a bit more serious about their snapping than their smartphone will allow, this mirrorless camera from Olympus packs advanced camera tech into a compact and very backpack-friendly frame. You get a 20MP sensor and 5-axis image stabilisation, 4K video recording and a flip-down LCD monitor, because selfies aren’t just for phones. £799 £749. At jessops.com

111Skin De-Puffing Face Mask

There’s nothing quite as drying on your skin as aeroplane air. Thankfully, that also means that there’s little as satisfying as the moisturising you do as you prepare to land. What better time to use something suitably OTT than then? 111Skin’s hydrogel mask more than deserves a look-in. £20. At selfridges.com

Theragun Mini Massage Gun

Muscle soreness doesn’t dissipate just because they’re out of office, especially if they’re the type to frequent the hotel gym. For such an overachiever, we recommend a massage gun : in this miniature edition, Theragun presents a solution to lactic acid build-up and aeroplane neck that fits in their hand luggage. £194.99. amazon.co.uk

Coco & Eve Tan Boosting Oil

Tan-boosting and anti-ageing is a big claim, one that we’re sure your sun-happy giftee would be more than willing to test out. That Coco & Eve’s body oil is also imbued with SPF makes this a beauty buy essential for hols. £28. uk.cocoandeve.com

Sea to Summit dry bag

For outdoorsy types, a dry bag can be worth its weight in gold. Bad luck for them, then, that Sea To Summit’s versatile storage bag is actually extremely lightweight, coming in at a mere 84 grams. The good news is that it won’t weigh down a sea kayak or a rucksack even as it keeps vulnerable gear bone-dry in the rain (though be warned: it’s not for submersion!). £19. seatosummit.co.uk

Ostrichpillow Go Neck pillow

There are travel pillows and then there are Ostrichpillows. The former, either inflatable or filled with beans, tends to be picked up as an afterthought at the airport. Opt for an Ostrichpillow, however, and you’ve all the makings of some comfortable slumber, whatever your altitude, thanks to its memory foam and 360-degree design which offers complete neck support. The material also compresses to 60 per cent of its size so is easily stored in a travel bag when not in use. It sure takes some of the blow away from long-haul travel in economy, and you can't put a price on that. £69. ostrichpillow.com

Eurostar voucher

It’s a voucher to be redeemed on the Eurostar. Simple. Effective. You’re welcome. Up to £500. vouchers.eurostar.com

Nintendo Switch Lite

If you head over to our strictly tech-focused gift guide you’ll find us getting excited about the brand-new OLED Nintendo Switch. But while that’s undoubtedly the best version of Nintendo’s brilliant console, it’s not the most travel-friendly. The Switch Lite plays all the same games as its bigger brother, but in a more portable package. You lose the detachable Joy-Con controllers that enable big-screen play on the TV, so this is a strictly handheld device. But it’s a more comfortable handheld for it, not to mention a good deal cheaper than the standard model. £213. At amazon.co.uk

Anker 737 Power Bank

In the last ten years, power banks have become increasingly essential travel accessories, ensuring you don’t end up navigating an unfamiliar city with a dead phone no matter how many podcasts or TV series you consume on the plane. This from Anker, can fully charge an iPhone 13 nearly five times before it needs recharging itself. £134.99. anker.com & amazon.co.uk

Assouline Travel Series

Inspiration for their next trip won’t be lacking when they open Assouline’s Travel Series on the 25th, as each book focuses on a different destination, whether it be the Athens Riviera, Dubai or Miami Beach. If this won’t send them immediately packing for their next adventure, nothing will. From £81. assouline.com

LinkOn Ganius 136W international charger

Even less seasoned travellers probably already have a drawer with a bunch of plug adaptors knocking around, but none of them will come close to this. Capable of providing an impressive 136W through its USB-C and dual USB-A ports at the same time, it’ll quickly juice up your tech without breaking a sweat. The fact that it can blast out 100W through the USB-C port alone is incredibly impressive, meaning it’s more than capable of charging fully-fledged laptops at breakneck speed. Despite this technical wizardry, it’s compact in size, and the interchangeable US, UK and EU adaptors mean that you can travel lighter too. £61. At amazon.co.uk

Apple has no doubt stolen away some prospective Tile customers with its AirTags, but the original Bluetooth tracker is still a great buy for iOS and Android users alike. Attached to your valuable of choice, the Tile Mate will make a sound when you ring it from your phone (a godsend for serial keys misplacers), but if an item is properly lost or stolen you can track its location via the app and have fellow Tile users contact you when found. Nobody should travel without one. £19.99. At amazon.co.uk

Airbnb Gift Card

Know they like to travel but less confident of where they’re thinking of jetting off to next? An easy and sure-to-be well-received win would be an Airbnb gift card, which can be redeemed for anything listed anywhere on the Airbnb website and never expires. Prices vary. airbnb.co.uk

Soho Home pool towel

Known for its picture-perfect rooftop pools, from Shoreditch to Dumbo New York, Soho House has a signature stripy towel design for every house in its portfolio, all available to purchase via its interiors offshoot, Soho Home. We’re particularly fond of the mint, pink and white combo that adorns the towels used at Soho House Mumbai, but for something more personalised to your recipient’s travel ambitions, browse the full range here. £65. sohohome.com

Our editors' favourite travel gift ideas

By Lauren Burvill

If you're set to give a gift to someone who loves travel or is planning a big trip, then consider this your cue to forgo a generic voucher gift and give something with a practical or travel-inspired twist. From must-haves for plane travel to inspiring books and time-saving gadgets, the following are our top picks of the best travel gifts to give in 2024.

The gift of stress-free travel

For all the joy a holiday can bring, the actual travel element can be rife with stress, from lost luggage to misplaced passports and navigating busy airports. As frequent flyers ourselves, our editors have navigated a multitude of bumps on our travels, and found that the below buys are great for making the journey a lot smoother.

For the loved one who’s a frequent flyer, Antler’s zippy hard shell Clifton cabin bag is a winner. The durable yet lightweight polycarbonate case features a twist-grip handle, making it very easy to wheel it around the airport at speed. A favourite of our editors, this case is both a great size and quality, and also looks smart, with seven subdued shades to choose from.

Aspinal of London’s travel collection makes for a classic gift to give any travel lover. Including a passport holder, luggage tags and travel wallet, the collection is made from full-grain leather and comes in six elegant shades and finishes. The brand also offers a personalisation option, so you can add the recipient's initials for a special personalised touch.

Anya Hindmarch’s in-flight travel bag is a game changer when it comes to staying organised on the go. Designed with air travel in mind, the carry-on bag has an array of clever features including a sleeve designed to sit over the bag of a luggage trolley and a clear removable pouch to store liquids. We also love the numerous internal and external organisational pockets, each with its own embossed label covering all of the travel essentials like ‘passport’ ‘keys’ ‘glasses,’ ‘headphones’ and ‘water.’

Since its release in 2021, Apple’s Bluetooth AirTag has become a must-have for frequent travellers or anyone prone to misplacing their keys. Simply attach the small button-shaped AirTag to your suitcase and connect to your iPad or iPhone via Bluetooth. Once connected you can find your item via the built-in speaker when it’s nearby or via the Precision Finding function on the app when it’s further away.

Finished, naturally, in beautifully soft Nappa leather, Mulberry’s passport cover has a soft grain effect and comes in a selection of chic colours to match your handbag. There are three slip pockets inside for all your docs along with four card slots. A must-have companion for keeping all your important travel documents together safely.

There's nothing like a dead battery to slow down a trip. Keep all your accessories charged up with a power bank. Anker is our favourite – it weighs just over 300 grams (or as little as a can as soup) but can charge an iPhone 8 almost seven times, the Galaxy S8 five times, or the iPad mini 4 twice.

A travel wash bag is key to staying organised — and avoiding spills in your luggage. We like this option from Away for its water-resistant materials and ample space for your toothbrush and toothpaste, razor, soaps, and more. A hanging bag also allows you to keep items tidy and off the bathroom counter.

For international travel, a power adapter is a must to make sure you can get devices charged up in the airport and your hotel room. Apple's World Travel Adapter Kit comes with seven AC plugs with prongs that fit into different electrical outlets around the world, and each one is labelled with the regions they are compatible with.

This is a fun idea for the friend who likes to be organised. Papier’s travel journals have pages for planning and memorialising six special trips, with space for noting down budgets, itineraries, packing lists and other important details. Long flight? There are travel games at the back, along with pages for journalling and scrapbooking.

The gift of sleeping on a plane

Standing down the hours of a long haul flight is made all the more easier with a gift that doubles as a travel hack. When it comes to feeling comfortable and getting some shut eye, the littlest luxuries can make a huge difference.

Trtl has revamped its clever wrap-style neck pillow to accommodate people of all heights more comfortably. The latest iteration is adjustable, to better suit your particular requirements, and the pillow section itself has been given a high-density foam makeover. Trtl’s offering is a lot smaller than standard U-shaped pillows, and weighs a petite 225 grams, so it won’t take up precious space in your hand luggage – or you could use the included clip to attach it to your rucksack .

Neal's Yard products make a lovely treat, whether you're travelling or not. This mini travel kit comprises all the skincare routine you'll need – bar SPF – for a 10 to 14 day trip, in a hand luggage-friendly size. This particular set is from the brand's Rose range, which uses highly fragrant roses grown and distilled in Bulgaria, farming co-operatives in Turkey and at high altitude on Mount Lebanon. Something globetrotters will surely appreciate.

When it comes to what to wear on a long flight , an oversized hoodie is hard to beat. Team it with a pair of comfortable leggings or a matching jogger, add a cashmere blanket and get ready to drift off. For a hoodie that makes a great gift, we love this elevated organic cotton style, embroidered with the Vogue logo for the ultimate fashion stamp of approval.

Skip the in-flight blankets provided by airlines – not only are they wasteful but also made from scratchy polyester. A much more luxurious alternative is a cashmere blanket, which not only feels softer but has an insulation capacity that's three times higher than wool, ideal for maintaining body temperature during a long flight.

Elizabeth Scarlett’s signature delicate embroidered designs features here on a 100 per cent cotton eye mask, helping travellers claw back a few precious hours’ shuteye while en route. Cleverly, the mask is filled with a sweet lavender blend to maximise the relaxation in use – a real treat.

The gift of jet-set style

Airport style had a big moment in 2023, with travellers walking the line between classic style and total comfort, and a subtle nod to celebrity paparazzi photos. The outfit formula is all about a designer loungewear set in a muted shade, teamed with comfortable trainers, a cap, sunglasses and a hardshell suitcase in a classic neutral shade .

German designer luggage brand Rimowa has some of the slickest suitcases on the market, with their classic aluminium cases proving the envy of all frequent flyers.

Merch fans will love the latest collaboration between designer denim brand Frame and legendary hotel the Ritz Paris. This Cashmere knit, embroidered with the hotelier's iconic logo, is the epitome of jet-set chic.

For a designer luggage tag that doesn't take itself too seriously, this cheerful lobster tag is part of a collaboration between cult cool-brand Loewe and the irreverent Paula's Ibiza. It's made in Italy from 100% leather and embossed with the brand's signature Anagram logo. It also comes with a dustbag, to keep him safe when not on his travels

Gucci has elevated the humble souvenir sticker with their ultra-stylish set of retro-logo luggage stickers. Perfect for personalising a suitcase, or adding to any travel accessory – travel wallet or luggage tag – these stickers are a playful way to add personality to any journey.

A secret beauty weapon for well-heeled travellers, this thick, creamy and super-hydrating mask is the key to caring for skin while in-transit. The mask features chestnut extract exfoliates to take away dullness, allowing for deeper penetration of Vitamin C to brighten. Green tea soothes and calms redness, and niacinamide reduces pores and fine lines. You can wear it throughout a flight, overnight or as a 10-minute mask.

This portable all-in-one dressing table by Beautifect is a game changer for regular travellers – it might even replace your makeup bag at home. The easy-to-carry box features a table, adjustable mirror, and storage, as well as an impressive lighting system that offers five different environments including true daylight. We also love that the box is powered by a standard USB-C and can last up to a month on just one single charge.

The gift of avoiding baggage fees

Packing hacks were a big talking point this year, with the below buys ranking top of our list when it came to travelling carry on luggage only.

It might be called an overnight bag, but if you pack strategically Antler's Chelsea bag can easily work as a weekender bag. This is a worthy investment for frequent flyers – in addition to numerous internal and external pockets and compartments, including a laptop sleeve and a water bottle pouch, it also has an over-handle sleeve, making it an ideal option to take on a long-haul flight . The bag is made in a durable water-resistant nylon and comes in nine different colour options, which of course match their Chelsea suitcase range .

For a do-it-all tote bag, it’s easy to see why this style from July is a best seller. Firstly the size – the large tote has room for 22 litres, plenty of space for packing a whole weekend’s worth of items. Then there are the organisation options – a dedicated laptop sleeve, a drink bottle holder, a pocket for a phone and wallet, as well as a zip-up pocket ideal for storing a passport. There are two external pockets, one that’s hidden and secured with a magnet, as well as a sleeve to slip over a luggage handle, so it can easily sit safely on top of a suitcase.

Australian luggage brand July has developed the world’s lightest carry-on suitcase. Weighing in at a dainty 1.8kg, the July Carry On Light, £195, offers a 32L capacity, aerospace-grade polycarbonate shell, specially-designed noise-reducing wheels, and a lifetime guarantee. The case is available in nine colours and also offers a personalisation service as well.

Packing cubes are a game-changer for hand luggage aficionados, helping you squeeze more into your case in a way that’s pleasingly effective. This set of four gives you space to separate your clothes, underwear, electronics and toiletries, while the mesh windows ensure you can see what you need to grab at-a-glance.

Even travellers with a library full of books at home have to admit it: E-readers are an essential travel accessory for bookworms . They are so much lighter than even one paperback book, and let you bring as many options as you want along for the ride.

The gift of armchair travel

Our pick of the best transportive gifts that bring the essence of travel to your home.

Loewe's collaboration with Paula's Ibiza perfectly captures summer in Ibiza in a rainbow ombre bottle. The woody-meets-floral fragrance combines notes of citrusy orange flower, jasmine sambac, incense essential oil and frankincense, creating an evocative bohemian scent that any sun-worshipper will love.

Transport your gift recipient to the fragrant fields of Southern India via Diptyque's delicately scented tuberose candle. Inspired by visits to Indochina in the 1930s, the heady yet fresh and green scent is available in a dreamy oceanic blue jar as part of the limited edition Don Son collection , which draws upon the childhood memories of Yves Coueslant, one of the Maison's founders.

Cult favourite London restaurant BAO released its first recipe book earlier this year, offering up the secrets to 100 of its most beloved Taiwanese-inspired dishes. Keen cooks can now recreate their famous steamed buns at home, as well as Taiwanese fried chicken, beef noodles, snack-size xiao chi, and more.

Assouline’s much sought-after coffee table books make for the ultimate wanderlust-meets-decor gift. On the outside these beautiful hardcover travel books add a fun splash of colour to any room, while inside they feature dreamy imagery and inspiring stories from some of the world’s most beloved destinations.

The gift of adventure

Practical gift ideas for those who prefer a hike over a sun lounger.

With an impressive 42L capacity, this Stubble & Co carry-on travel backpack is ideal for hands-free travel on trips that last three-to-five days. It's packed with clever features, including a 16" laptop sleeve, a clamshell opening for easy packing, a hidden valuables compartment, and a reflective rain cover to ensure you stay visible and your gear stays dry in wet weather. Compression straps keep everything as compact as possible, and there's a passthrough band to attach it to your case as well.

When we asked Victoria Beckham , earlier this year, about her most beloved travel item, she name dropped Yeti. The popular American drinkwear brand is the ultimate go-to for any adventure traveller, especially for camping or hiking trips. Their classic Rambler bottle is a winner when it comes to travel; made from stainless steel and vacuum insulated, so your water will stay cold for hours.

Okay, yes – it’s a gift card. But no gift guide is complete without one option and, as far as stereotypical vouchers-as-presents go, this is a pretty good one to receive. With a feast of stunning properties available to book across the globe, from London to New York and beyond, the keys to a new Airbnb makes an ideal gift for a globetrotting loved one ready to tick off the next trip on their list.

The gift of distraction

For the little travellers in your life, these clever buys will help to ensure an easier journey. For more ideas, see our pick of the best travel toys .

It’s rare to take a trip to the airport without spotting at least one of Trunki’s cheery suitcases in the waiting room. The designs are practical and fun, with a roomy 18 litre storage capacity for toys, clothes and games. As a bonus, the cases have a saddle seat and tow strap, allowing for easy tot transportation from check-in desk to gate.

This made-for-kids tablet could be the key to a peaceful flight, car journey, ferry ride and more. It comes with 1 year of Amazon Kids+ content so your little one can watch all the Peppa Pig they want, and has a sturdy kid-proof case (available in three different coloured) to protect it against the inevitable drops and bumps.

The mini size of the popular Yoto audio player is perfect for travelling. Compact and easy-to-use for kids aged 3+, the collectable cards which play stories and interactive games are also easy to pack.  It also doubles as a speaker and alarm clock and the extended battery life means it's a great companion for long journeys.

If the goal is to get maximum entertainment from just one toy, then busy boards are a miraculous invention for children from a few months to a few years old. The ARVRI Sensory Busy Board offers 15 different activities in a book-style carrying case that’s just a tiny bit larger than an A4 sheet of paper.

So let’s dive straight in and find the best travel gifts for women for that special lady in your life!

Fun and unique travel gift ideas for women

1. scratch map.

Every travel lover loves a map. And scratch off world maps are definitely one of the best travel gifts for women. This Scratch Off World Map Poster makes for the perfect home decor as well as a reminder of all the beautiful places that she’s visited and all the ones that are waiting for her!

2. Travel-themed Jewellery

Travel-themed jewellery is a great gift for travellers who love a little something that represents their wanderlust. This Sterling Silver travel map necklace is a beautiful accessory that she can wear and take anywhere with her, reminding her to always follow her passion for travel. 

3. Travel experience gift card

What do you give someone who is always on the move and travelling? As a full-time traveller one of my favourite gifts to receive is a travel experience gift card. With a travel experience gift card your receiver can pick what to use it for, and it’s a great opportunity for them to try a new adventure. It’s guaranteed they’ll love this!

I’d recommend Tinggly (for US-based travellers) or GetYourGuide Gift Card (for worldwide travel) which offers a wide range of experiences all around the world!

4. Travel journal

Travel journals are a great gift option if you’re looking for something simple and versatile. The OMEYA Leather Journal is lightweight and durable, perfect for travelling and capturing those unforgettable memories. If you prefer to get something more fun and colourful, this Clever Fox travel planner is also a great option for travel gifts for women.

5. Language learning subscription

Learning the basic phrases in the local language of your destination can be extremely helpful for any traveller.

If your traveller loves communicating with locals and learning new words, a language learning subscription would be a great gift for them! Rosetta Stone is one of the leading language learning platforms that gives you access to 25 languages including Spanish, Italian, French, Mandarin and Greek. 

6. Scrapbook 

If you’re looking to spark some creativity with your present, scrapbooks are an amazing gift for travellers who love to save small memorabilia like museum entrance tickets and flight boarding paces. It’s something they can look back on and cherish for years to come. 

7. Travel colouring book

A travel-themed colouring book is the perfect gift for artistic travellers, capturing the essence of wanderlust in its pages. The Lonely Planet Travel Colouring book is ideal for passing time during long layovers or train rides, each page offers landmarks and patterns waiting for her personal touch. For a complete present set, pair it with a box of colouring pencils.

Best travel gifts for women that will make her trips easier

8. passport holder.

A chic passport holder is a great gift to keep her most important document safe. The Melsbrinna Passport Holder is a great option and it comes with slots to keep other documents in one place. 

9. Luggage tags

Luggage tags are a great gift idea for women. Beyond functionality, they help her spot her baggage quickly or ensuring it finds its way back to her in case it’s misplaced. The Fintie luggage tags are perfect with their vibrant colours and metal loop lock to keep them in place. 

10. Hanging toiletries bag

For a more practical gift, a must for every travelling woman is the hanging toiletries bag . Designed to hang conveniently and organise cosmetics, it ensures easy access to her beauty essentials with separate compartments. Making travelling so much easier and well-organised.

11. Jewellery organiser case

Jewellery often gets tangled when travelling, but a sleek jewellery organiser case is the perfect solution for this. With specialised compartments, her treasured pieces stay organised and safe.

12. Travel wallet

Keeping all your cards and important documents safe and organised while travelling is crucial, as well as having quick access to anything you need. The Travelambo Women’s Wallet is both stylish and practical, made of smooth faux leather and designed to protect cards with its RFID blocking feature.

13. Waterproof phone pouch

For the traveller who loves beach getaways and underwater adventures, a waterproof phone pouch is a must. It’s a great low-budget but high quality gift that ensures her device is protected against splashes and accidental dips, allowing her to capture memories worry-free.

14. Portable steamer

Wrinkled clothes on arrival? Not anymore. For anyone travelling for business often or social events, a portable steamer is the perfect way to quickly refresh her outfits, ensuring she looks impeccable no matter where her travels take her. No more worrying if her hotel or AirBnB has an iron available. 

This steamer is compact and heats up ready to use within less than 30 seconds.

15. Travel hairdryer

Hotel hair dryers can be a hit or miss. A compact travel hairdryer ensures she has consistent power and style, keeping her locks looking their best in any climate. 

16. Travel backpack

A good travel backpack is both stylish and functional. It accommodates all her essentials and keeps them organized, ensuring she’s always ready to explore the city’s hidden gems or go on spontaneous hikes. When it comes to backpacks, quality is of utmost importance and there’s no better than Osprey’s travel backpacks .

17. Travel deodorant

An unusual gift that she’ll love! Travel size deodorants are the perfect gift that is compact and easy to use. The Salt of the Earth deodorant is 100% natural and long lasting, a small and simple gift that makes life so much easier for any girl. I know I love mine when travelling!

18. Packing cubes

Organization is key to hassle-free travel. The Amazon Basics Packing Cubes are perfect for compartmentalising your luggage, making packing (and unpacking) swift and efficient, leaving more time to enjoy the trip. 

19. Filter water bottle

Filter water bottles are one of the best travel gifts for women. They make staying hydrated on the go while being eco-conscious super easy. Brita’s Filter Water bottles can be refilled from any source, ensuring the water is always clean and safe.

20. Travel cutlery set

For the eco-friendly traveller, a reusable travel cutlery set is a great gift option. Lightweight and compact, they can be used to enjoy meals on the go, reducing single-use plastic waste. 

21. Reusable straw

A must-have for the eco-conscious traveller, a reusable straw is the perfect chic and sustainable gift. Compact and crafted from durable materials, it’s perfect for the beach, coffee shops and even parties.

22. Travel umbrella

Mini travel umbrellas are compact and perfect to take on vacation. The Samsonite Rain Pro mini umbrella is made of high quality and light materials, easy to carry in her bag and be prepared for unexpected rains on her travels. 

Travel gifts for her that will make travelling more comfortable

23. sleeping mask.

Sleeping in new places or while travelling can be challenging. That’s why one of my must-take travel items is a full-black out eye mask. The Halo Sleep sleeping mask is my favourite purchase so far –  creates complete darkness and is gentle on the eyes, helping you get restful sleep on any journey.

24. Travel pillow

Neck support is essential during long flights or car rides. The Snugl memory foam travel pillow moulds to the contours of your neck, ensuring you arrive at your destination rested and without stiffness.

Useful electronics gifts for travellers

25. portable power bank.

Portable power banks are one of the top essentials when travelling, making sure you can keep your phone charged while on the road or exploring. The INIU Portable Charger is the slimmest and lightest power bank of its kind, combining compact design with fast charging. It’s perfect to ensure she’s never left without battery when travelling.

26. Electronics organiser

Keeping wires and charges tidy can be a nightmare when travelling. This electronics organiser is perfect for travelling ladies, helping her keep everything neat and accessible. It offers dedicated pockets and straps for all cables and gadgets. 

27. Travel adaptor

Different countries, different sockets. A universal travel adaptor removes the worry of being able to charge your phone when you arrive at your next destination. This travel adaptor is perfect for international travel, compatible with outlets in over 150 countries, making her travels seamless and hassle-free.

28. Digital reader

Digital readers are the perfect gift for travellers! They’re lightweight and compact, able to store hundreds of books at once and keep your reading library stocked for months. The Amazon Kindle is the best of its kind when it comes to e-readers, with its high resolution display, long-lasting battery and enough storage to hold hundreds of books.

Gifts to help her capture her travel memories

29. instant camera.

Instant cameras are a fun way to capture memories on the go and enjoy the photos almost instantly. The Instax 11 mini is the best instant camera out there, easy to use and creating high quality photos within a couple of minutes.

30. Instant photo printer

As an alternative to instant cameras, the instant photo printers are a great gift for any woman traveller. These allow her to take any photos with her phone and instantly print them out. The Kodak Step wireless photo printer is one of the best and most affordable of its kind, super small and portable, printing 2×3 inch photos instantly. 

31. Disposable film camera

Disposable film cameras are back in fashion. With a touch of nostalgia they make for one of the best travel gifts for women. With the Kodak Single Use Funsaver , you can enjoy 27 exposures, adding a touch of unpredictability and excitement to your travel shots.

32. Action camera

Action cameras make a great gift for any traveller, especially if they’re about to go on some epic adventures. Whether it’s a diving trip, a safari or a mountain hike, a GoPro action camera or an Insta 360 are both amazing for any type of trip. Lightweight, water resistant, and most importantly discreet. 

A travel drone is the perfect present for a female traveller who loves photography but already has a camera and/or an action camera. The DJI Mini 3 is the best travel drone out there, compact and lightweight, easy to pack in a carry on. It has the ability to capture high quality photos and videos, recording in 4K and taking 12MP photos. Weighing just under 250g, it keeps it below the weight that additional legislations for drone flying kick in for most countries. 

Travel drones are amazing for capturing beautiful destinations from a unique perspective making it one of the best travel gifts for women.

Capturing travel memories on the move even if she’s travelling by herself is made easy with a travel tripod. With this multifunctional tripod and selfie stick , offering adjustable height and angle options, she can easily capture her travel photos anywhere.

Another option for keeping your valuables like passport, money and phone, while travelling is a travel money belt.

It’s water resistant and comfortable to wear, making it a no-brainer for any traveller.

A personal alarm can be useful wherever you go – whether it’s abroad or at home, at the park or at a club. The Ventamo Personal Alarm for Women has extra loud double speakers and can be easily attached to a keychain or purse. It’s compact and discrete, it has a low battery level notice and is easily rechargeable with a USB. It’s a must for any woman traveller, being able to draw attention in emergencies and ensuring her safety during solo adventures. 

38. Personal Water Filter

Water safety is super important when travelling, making a portable water purifier an excellent travel gift for women. The LifeStraw Personal Water Filter is perfect for hiking, camping and travelling in general. It’s small and portable, and protects against 99.9999% of waterborne bacteria and parasites. 

39. Door stop security

A door stop security alarm is another must-have security gadget that is portable and easy to travel with, but can keep her safe when staying at different hotels. This Door Stop Security Alarm fits right under the door and sounds a loud alarm if anyone tries to come in while you’re sleeping. Providing an extra sense of security while travelling.

A carbon monoxide detector should be a staple in any traveller’s luggage. The Kidde Carbon Monoxide detector can prevent unnecessary accidents and protect you against the silent threat. It’s a small and portable device, easily fitting into your luggage and ensuring the safety of your accommodation wherever you are.

The 55 Best Gifts for Travel Lovers in 2024

Peruse these practical and thoughtful gift ideas for every traveler on your list.

Travel + Leisure / Kristin Kempa

Shopping for your travel-loving friends and family can be tricky — after all, you’ll want to ensure you’re picking up something practical, but you also don’t want to gift them something they already have. It’s also worth considering that frequent travelers, especially digital nomads, tend to live a more minimalist life. This means practical gear will reign supreme over more frivolous items.

You’ll also want to take into account the kind of travel your favorite globetrotters or influencers are into. City explorers or luxury-leaning travelers, for example, probably won’t want the same gear as someone who spends their PTO hiking and trekking through the wilderness.

The following options were hand-picked by our team to suit every type of traveler and vacationer on your list. We’ve extensively researched (or personally tested) all of the following gifts to ensure your purchase will make a thoughtful and genuinely practical addition to your loved one’s travels. Here are the best gifts travelers will love — for all budgets and needs.

Paravel Passport Case

If your favorite travelers don’t already have a high-quality passport cover, you might want to consider the Paravel Cabana Passport Case. The elegant leather case can even be personalized with a hand-painted monogram or custom graphic to add another layer of elegance. We also like that this option has an abundance of pockets and card slots to make organization easier.

Boka Fresh on the Go

The Boka Fresh on the Go set was made for travelers who avoid checking a bag at all costs. It includes everything they’ll need to maintain good oral hygiene while on the go. The toothpaste is TSA-approved and the mouthwash — this is the best part — comes in the form of chewable tablets, so it won’t even count toward their liquid quota.

Jamaica Vibes

Jamaica Vibes is one of the latest in the Assouline coffee table book family — and possibly one of the most fun options to date. The stunning visual-first book will allow travelers to reminisce about any time spent in Jamaica (or dream about future trips) while the cover and spine of the book will add a dose of elegant and trendy style to coffee tables and bookshelves.

Contiki Tour

You can’t go wrong with the gift of travel itself. If you’re looking for a big-ticket experience gift for a younger traveler in your life, look no further than a Contiki tour. The pre-packaged trips will take them all over the world with like-minded young people and range from exploring the Garden Route in South Africa to road-tripping through the Balkans.

Epicka Universal Travel Adapter

Sure, a travel adapter might not immediately come off as the most exciting gift. But any traveler will tell you just how valuable a reliable one really is. The Epicka Universal Travel Adapter is the best travel adapter in our book; it works in more than 150 countries and it’s super compact and easy to pack thanks to the modular design. Plus, you can always pair it with a flashier item like a travel-themed phone case .

SereneLife Inflatable Stand Up Paddle Board

 Amazon

The SereneLife Stand-up Paddle Board is an excellent option for anyone who wants to bring the spirit of resort life home. We tested out a variety of inflatable paddle boards and our team agrees that this is the best board on the market thanks to the lightweight, portable design and impressive stability in the water.

LARQ Bottle PureVis

The Larq Self-cleaning Water Bottle is a true game changer for all kinds of travelers. The smart bottle uses UV technology to not just disinfect itself but also to purify the water you’re drinking. This means the jetsetter you’re shopping for will be able to comfortably drink from most water sources without worrying about getting sick.

Tommy Bahama Backpack Beach Chair

The Tommy Bahama Backpack Beach Chair is simply the best beach chair around — and it makes a great gift for road-trippers and camping enthusiasts alike. It’s super easy to transport thanks to the folding backpack design, and is surprisingly comfortable due to the adjustable head pillow and elongated seat. We also like that the frame is rust-proof, meaning it’s perfect for using at the beach or in the rain.

Intelligent Change Inc. The Five Minute Journal

Sometimes, it can be hard to live in the moment and absorb all the magic that is travel — but a gratitude journal can help ensure your globetrotter stays centered on the go. The Five Minute Journal takes, as advertised, takes just five minutes of a traveler’s time; but jotting down their thoughts for those few minutes will help them remember and appreciate the most exciting parts of their day while traveling or at home.

Andobil Car Phone Holder Mount

The best car phone holder mount in our book is the Andobil Car Phone Holder Mount, and it’ll make a great gift for road trippers and car commuters. It’s super easy to install and, once set up, is incredibly stable and easy to use while on the go. There’s also space to plug in a charger so drivers won’t have to mess around with their phone just to get some juice.

Puffer Hug 418 Scarf

Think of the Puffer Hug 418 Scarf as a stylish and equally practical alternative to the fishing vest. Hear us out: this cozy accessory serves as a regular scarf but also has tons of pockets for things like a smartphone or passport. It’s great for wearing to the airport when you need to have documents at the ready but is equally sensible for wearing to explore a new city.

Slip Silk Skinny Scrunchies

The Slip Pure Silk 4-pack Skinny Scrunchies is a fail-safe gift for travelers who want to care for their hair while they're away. The silk design is gentle on the hair and is designed to not pull or cause breakage, even with regular use. We also really like the elegant patterns and colors of the scrunchies, which can easily double as cute arm candy among a stack of bracelets.

Vinarmour Travel Wine Carrier

Wine-loving travelers will flip for the Vinarmour Travel Wine Carrier. This stunning carrier is designed to transport a bottle of wine without any risk of breakage. It features sufficient padding to keep the bottle safe while in transit, but it’s also made from leak-proof material — so even if the bottle was already damaged and cracks while in cargo, it won’t spill on the rest of your luggage.

The Harmonist Travel Coffret

The Harmonist

The Harmonist Travel Coffret is a game-changer when it comes to feeling fresh and relaxed in transit. The set of three heavily-concentrated perfumes were designed to foster a sense of calmness and relaxation thanks to the various notes, including patchouli, pomelo, Bulgarian rose, and vanilla. It also comes with a striking travel case to keep the vials safe in transit.

Twelve South AirFly Pro

The Twelve South AirFly Pro is a T+L editor favorite and such an easy way to upgrade the economy experience. This handy little device allows travelers to use their own Bluetooth headphones or earbuds with the inflight entertainment system rather than having to use the sub-par freebies provided by the airline. The AirFly is super easy to use as well — all you have to do is plug it into the headphone jack on the plane and pair it with your headphones.

Four Seasons Velvet Slippers

Four Seasons

There’s something inherently luxurious about slipping into a pair of hotel slippers upon check in — and the Four Seasons Velvet Slippers amplify that feeling and bring it home. These stunning slippers are made in Italy from sleek velvet and cotton with the Four Seasons logo embroidered on the top. The elastic back and rubber sole make them appropriate for both indoor and outdoor use.

Birdie Personal Safety Alarm

Here’s one for the solo women travelers on your list. The She's Birdie Personal Safety Alarm is designed to fit incognito in her handbag or pocket — but if she finds herself in any kind of trouble, it’s easy to grab and sound the alarm to draw attention and deter an attack. All she has to do is pull off the top tab to activate the 130-decibel siren and flashing strobe light.

Dagne Dover Tech Organizer

Dagne Dover

Nobody thinks they need a tech organizer while traveling, but when you take into account all the cables and adapters required to make international travel smooth, having a specific spot to keep everything untangled is major. The Dagne Dover Arlo Tech Organizer is small enough to pop into a carry-on but has plenty of interior space to store everything a traveler needs.

Lindsay Albanese Toptote Leather Hat Holder

Traveling with a cute hat seems like a great idea, but in practice it can be a bit of a pain. The Lindsay Albanese Toptote Leather Hat Holder allows travelers to bring along a wide-brim hat without having to wear it the entire commute or risking it getting crushed in a suitcase. The clip attaches to the brim of a hat and the built-in carabiner lets you pop it onto a handbag or carry-on for a hands-free solution.

Diptyque Travel Cleansing & Moisturizing Set

This cleansing and moisturizing set will be a welcome addition to any routine whether at home or on the go. The decadent set includes both rinse-free and regular hand wash as well as a moisturizing hand lotion — all of which smell just like your favorite luxury hotel bath products. We also like that this option comes with a cute carrying case that makes it easy to store the items in a handbag or carry-on.

Vasco V4 Language Translator Device

World travelers always have a few favorite travel products they swear by. For traveling abroad, the Vasco V4 Language Translator Device makes the experience so much easier — not just on the traveler but on the locals as well. This genius device provides instant voice translation in 108 languages and comes with free lifetime internet to ensure it’ll always be functional anywhere in the world. The instant translations mean your traveling pal can have real-time conversations with people across the globe, even if there’s no common spoken language.

Pokoloko Harem Towel

The Pokoloko Harem Towel is handcrafted using 100 percent Turkish cotton by artisans in Turkey — and it’s the perfect beach bag essential. It’s very lightweight and rolls down much smaller than the average towel. However, it’s also incredibly absorbent and quick-drying, so travelers can pop it back into their beach bag at the end of the day without worrying about lugging home a soggy towel.

lululemon Everywhere Belt Bag 1L

It’s called the Everywhere Belt Bag for a reason! This Lululemon staple has quickly become a cult classic for travelers (it has quite literally been everywhere this year). The adjustable belt bag is super convenient for everything from hiking to exploring cities hands-free, and the durable nylon material means you won’t have to worry about potential spillage or getting stuck in the rain (it’ll wipe clean with a bit of water).

Longchamp Le Pliage Filet Mesh Bag

Regular travelers know the importance of throwing a decent-sized tote into their luggage. After all, you never know when you’ll need the extra bit of space while on the road. The Longchamp Le Pliage Filet L Mesh Bag offers a sophisticated take on the humble mesh tote complete with a snap closure and both a top handle and shoulder strap for added versatility.

Conair Travel Garment Dual Voltage Steamer

The Conair Power Steam Handheld Travel Garment Steamer makes looking and feeling put together on the road a snap. The compact steamer is small enough to slip into a carry-on bag and pull out as needed while traveling. It boasts a 35-second heat-up time so the traveler in your life can power away wrinkles and creases in no time at all.

YETI Roadie 24 Cooler

The Yeti Roadie 24 Hard Cooler will be well received by the road trip warriors and beach bums on your list. Not only is it super aesthetically pleasing, but it can also actually fit an incredible amount in such a compact space — we’re talking up to 33 cans, 26 pounds of ice, and even full-sized bottles of wine.

Loop Quiet Ear Plugs

You don’t quite realize how high-quality the Loop Quiet earplugs are until you really need them. The surprisingly stylish earplugs were designed to be comfortable while sleeping and will serve as a major blessing the next time your gift recipient has been put in a hotel room next to a crying baby or bachelorette party.

Paravel Mini Fold-up Backpack

The Paravel Mini Fold-Up Backpack earned the top spot in our books as the best mini backpack of 2024 , and it’s easy to see why. It’s easy to fit all the essentials — think a tablet, a wallet, sunscreen, and shoes — but it also folds down into the size of a wallet when not in use, which makes it great for tucking into a carry-on bag in case of emergencies. We also love that this bag has the option to be monogrammed, making your gift all the more thoughtful.

Béis The Cosmetic Case

We love Béis for its cheeky and innovative take on travel accessories — and the Cosmetic Case in particular is one of our top picks of the year for best makeup cases . We love that this option is highly durable but still elegant in design and also has a generous-sized built-in mirror that makes it easy to do makeup or skincare while on the go. It’s also worth noting that this case is available in eight different colorways, so you can choose one that’ll best suit their specific style.

Paravel Aviator Carry-on Plus

If the traveler on your list is in need of a new carry-on, you’ll want to consider the Paravel Aviator Carry-on Plus. This innovative carry-on bag earned top marks in our books as the best piece of luxury luggage thanks to its super sturdy build and variety of organization options within the luggage. It’s also worth noting that all carriers are ethically produced — which makes this a great gift for conscious travelers as well.

Baggu Nylon Crescent Bag

We love a crossbody bag for travel — and the Baggu Nylon Crest Bag is definitely the top crossbody bag of the year in our books. We love just how versatile this bag is and how easily it can be packed into a suitcase without adding any bulk or weight. The crossbody bag is also highly durable and even machine washable, which is a huge perk for travelers who don’t want to have to baby their accessories while on the go.

Awake Caffeinated Chocolate Energy Bar

Frequent flyers know the perils of trying to get a good cup of coffee on an airplane or in an airport — which is why the Awake Caffeinated Chocolate Energy Bites are such a game changer for caffeine-loving travelers. The tasty chocolate bites have the caffeine equivalent of half a cup of coffee, and also offer a sweet sugar kick that’ll help them get through everything from red-eye flights to long layovers.

Nitecore MT21C Flashlight

You might not immediately think of a flashlight as a standout gift for a traveler — but a rechargeable flashlight is a packing essential for travelers who do any kind of adventure or outdoor traveling. The Nitecore MT21C Flashlight is one T+L editors swear by thanks to its compact size, impressive brightness, and longevity (it has a maximum output of 1000 lumens and a peak beam distance of 201 yards). It’s also adjustable by 90 degrees which can be highly practical for getting into tight spaces.

Moon Dissolving Whitening Strips

There’s something about indulging in a self-care routine while flying that can make an economy seat feel like you’re sitting in first class — and what could be more luxurious than whitening your teeth while on the go? The MOON Teeth Whitening Strips were designed to be used while traveling, the strips work the same as your classic Crest variety, but all you have to do is stick them on and wait for them to dissolve — no sink or rinsing required.

Amazon Fire HD 10 Tablet

Sure — most airplanes have built-in in-flight entertainment, but boy does it suck when you board a flight only to realize there’s no screen on the seat back. The Amazon Fire HD 10 Tablet will let them download all their favorite shows and movies to watch on the flight. It’s also great for reading e-books or checking into social media while in transit.

Aer Travel Weekender

Aer  

The Aer Travel Weekender is our favorite carry-on duffel bag right now thanks to its versatility and durable design. We like that this bag can easily be used as a top-handle tote, but that it also has a built-in strap that makes it easy to use as a duffel bag while on the go. It’s worth noting that the bag also has a 16-inch padded laptop sleeve, which means they’ll be able to keep their laptop or tablet safe and secure while traveling.

Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 3

A portable speaker makes a great addition to any traveler’s packing list. Not only does it ensure the vibes will be good no matter where they find themselves, it’s also a great tool for playing white noise and making it easier to fall asleep in unfamiliar places. We highly recommend the Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 3; this one is super easy to connect to any phone and is both waterproof and dustproof — so they won’t have to be precious with it while traveling.

nCamp Café Portable Coffee Maker

If you’ve got a coffee lover on your list, the nCamp Café Portable Coffee Maker is going to be a game changer in terms of the quality of their morning joe. This compact coffee maker is especially great to bring on camping trips because it crafts espresso-style coffee without any power source. The only thing they’ll need is a hot water source and they’ll have cafe-quality brew wherever they go (which, let’s be honest, will also save them a ton of money on morning coffee).

Nintendo Switch

Travel can be endlessly thrilling and entertaining — but there’s a lot of downtime that comes with it as well. A Nintendo Switch is going to make a great gift for the gamers on your list (or those traveling with little ones). The beauty of the Switch is that they’ll be able to use it as a handheld to pass the time at airports or train stations, but it can also be set up television-style to play party games at the hotel room or Airbnb.

Infinity Pillow Travel Pillow

Infinity Pillow

Unless you’re lucky enough to get a miraculous upgrade to business class, sleeping on a plane can be a struggle. That’s where the Infinity Pillow Travel Pillow comes in. This innovative pillow was designed with neck support and can be adapted to work whether they’re in the window, aisle, or even the middle seat.  It’s also temperature regulating, so it won’t make them sweaty mid-flight, and doubles as an eye mask.

Call You When I Land: A Memoir

Travel writer and author Nikki Vargas spares no detail in her evocative memoir Call You When I Land , which follows Vargas as she relentlessly pursues her dream career, and in turn, dream lifestyle. The juicy travelogue is ideal for fans of Eat Pray Love or What I Was Doing While You Were Breeding . Oh — and there’s a love story and murder mystery baked into it as well. Can you say beach read?

Nimble Champ Portable Charger

It doesn’t matter how streamlined their travel is — every traveler struggles with having juice for all their devices while on the go. Sometimes it’s a lack of adequate adapters, and sometimes it’s long excursions with no charging outlet in sight. Either way, a decent portable charger just makes things easier. We love the Nimble Champ Portable Charger in particular. It’s compact and durable, but it’s also eco-friendly having been crafted in part from recycled water bottles.

Slip Lovely Lashes Contour Sleep Mask

Traveling without a sleep mask sucks — especially if you’re sensitive to light or plan to sleep on the plane. The Slip Lovely Lashes Contour Sleep Mask in particular is an awesome gift and great alternative to the classic eye mask model. It’s crafted from real silk, so it won’t pull or mess up their hair. It also has a contoured eye area so it won’t squish their eyes or lashes, even if they use it all night long.

Away The Insider Packing Cubes

Away The Insider Packing Cubes are a game changer for travelers who want to pack light and travelers who like to pack more than they might need. For starers, these packing cubes allow them to organize their clothing by categories, which allows them to have a better grasp on exactly what they have. The cubes also gently compress clothing which makes it easy to fit everything into a carry-on or smaller-sized suitcase as needed.

Skyborne iTravel Folio 4.0

Staying organized and on the ball on travel days makes the whole experience go much smoother — and that’s why we love the Skyborne iTravel Folio 4.0. This sleek travel wallet is designed to fit all their travel documents (including passport, smartphone, AirPods, and more) in one stylish zippered wallet. It also has built-in charging capabilities to keep their electronics juiced up, no matter where they are.

Rewined Bordeaux Candle

If they’re always waxing poetic about their trip to wine country, why not gift them an olfactory memory of their time? The Bordeaux Candle by Rewined comes as an homage to the French countryside with notes of Maritime Pine, Crushed Herbs, and Cypress that are designed to transport them right back to the vineyards of Bordeaux. Rewined’s candles are also beautifully made and will look just as good as they smell on a coffee table or kitchen counter.

Pocket Tripod Universal Kit

Pocket Tripod

Let’s be honest: no matter how cool we think we are, everyone wants to get some good photos to share on social media (or to look back on) while traveling. The Pocket Tripod Universal Kit is a super compact and discreet alternative to the larger tripods on the market. It’s about the size of a credit card and is easy to pop onto a smartphone for an instant tripod, wherever they find themselves.

Foreo Luna Mini 2 Facial Cleansing Brush

Traveling can wreak some serious havoc on the skin — which is why skincare-loving travelers (and really anyone who likes a clean face!) will flip for the FOREO LUNA Mini. This innovative skincare tool uses T-sonic pulsations to clean the skin, brushing away any traces of makeup, dirt, or acne-causing bacteria that might be lurking on their face after a long flight or day of exploration.

Audible Membership

If you’re shopping for a traveler who is big on podcasts or listening to audio books while on the go, a subscription to Audible is pretty much a no-brainer. This subscription will get them one free audiobook per month and allow them to listen to all kinds of different books at their own pace while traveling. It’s also a great alternative to packing various books or having to remember an e-reader; all their audiobooks will be accessible right on their smartphone or tablet!

The Essential Guide to Turkish Wine

The Essential Guide to Turkish Wine by wine writer and author Andrea Lemieux is the only English-language anthology you’ll find sharing the ins and outs of Turkish wine. Turkey is one of the oldest wine-producing countries in the world, and Lemieux’s comprehensive guide will inspire them to book a trip to the wine trail of Turkey thanks to her captivating (and comprehensive) descriptions and gorgeous illustrations and visuals to match.

Riemot Luggage Cup Holder

It would be nice to have another set of hands when rolling through the airport, wouldn’t it? Well, that’s where the Riemot Luggage Travel Cup Holder comes in. This handy attachment can fit onto any rolling suitcase or carry-on. It not only accommodates a beverage, but also easily fits a wallet or passport and most smartphones. There’s nothing better than being hands-free without having to dig through a handbag or backpack to get out the essentials.

BasicConcepts Airplane Foot Hammock

Sure — it might look a little cheesy at first glance… but they will be incredibly grateful for this whimsical gift when they’re on hour five of their next red-eye flight. The Basic Concepts Airplane Foot Hammock attaches underneath the tray table, providing them with instant relief of aches and pains that might crop up after sitting upright for hours on end. It can adjust to three different positions as well, so they’ll be able to continue to change their position throughout the flight for added comfort.

Steamline Luggage The Palm Cosmetics Set

Steamline Luggage

Frequent flyers are always on the hunt for streamlined packing accessories — and this cosmetics set from Steamline Luggage is a standout option. It ranks number one in our best travel pouch of 2024 thanks to its charming tropical-inspired prints and the fact that the pouches are crafted from recycled water bottles. The pouches can easily fit inside of one another when not in use and lay flat, which makes them easy to pack and store.

1,000 Places to See Before You Die

1,000 Places to See Before You Die is one of our favorite travel-focused reference books. The anthology is a veritable bucket list that is just as good for armchair travel as it is for reference when planning a trip. We also love flipping through this book to reflect on all the places we’ve been — the intriguing descriptions and photography evoke memories while also seeing even the most popular tourist destinations and monuments in a refreshing new light.

Native Union Universal Sling

The Native Union Universal Sling is designed to pop onto smartphones like a phone case — but it comes with a built-in strap that allows travelers to wear their phone like a crossbody bag or around their neck like a lanyard. It’s available in a variety of colorways and is made from recycled material for a more sustainable approach. It’s perfect for travel as it’s more secure than throwing a phone in a pocket or bag as well.

Inspired by the vibrant colours and patterns of festival season, this sustainably made leather glasses case will keep those precious pairs of sunnies protected from any bumps and scuffs.

Luggage, bags, & travel accessories

Any traveler—frequent flier or not—can benefit from one (or more!) of the below pieces of luggage , bags, and accessories. Founded and designed by Traveler contributor and mom Jordi Lippe-McGraw , PAK Rêve’s Wilder Bundle is especially ideal for families looking to stay organized during their travels. Your giftee can also keep their suitcase clutter-free by utilizing handy travel accessories like timeless leather travel pouches, a space-saving hanging toiletry bag, or even a set of leakproof magnetic capsules.

Additionally, to make the in-flight experience all the more enjoyable and relaxing, splurge on a sumptuous cashmere travel set complete with a blanket, eye mask, and zippered storage pouch for convenient carrying. Alternatively, treat your giftee to a weighted sleep mask or memory foam pillow so they can catch some zzz’s ( even in a dreaded middle seat! ).

Need even more inspiration? Consider snagging a chic passport holder , a Traveler -favorite belt bag , a customizable piece of luggage that’ll last for years, or an uber-versatile weekender bag that’s perfect for shorter sojourns.

Beauty & skincare products

Surprise and delight your lucky gift recipient with something they’ll truly love and use—both at home, on the go, and away on vacation. You can’t go wrong gifting timeless skincare staples like good ol’ SPF (especially one from beloved brand Supergoop ) or a soothing, sensitive-skin-approved, redness-banishing facial spray they can spritz on mid-flight.

Hydration is the name of the travel game, especially on airplanes where cabin air is dry and humidity levels are low. That’s where nourishing lip balms and skin salves come into play, both of which make excellent gifts. Meanwhile, beauty enthusiasts of all ages will appreciate tried-and-true essentials like a botanical-infused hair care set that’s TSA-approved, or a restorative hair mask to combat dry and dehydrated strands, which can happen all too often when globetrotting.

Travel-friendly clothing & shoes

When it comes to fashion, comfort is key—and some things just never go out of style. It’s always a good idea to stock up on travel-friendly wardrobe staples , including cute joggers , everyday leggings , and blanket scarves to keep you warm and toasty in flight. Alternatively, present your giftee with a full loungewear set , our uniform for long-haul flights. Last but not least, don’t forget about footwear. When it comes to gifting, options abound, from supportive walking shoes to versatile ballet flats , which, yes, are officially back in style.

Tech-savvy travelers are sure to love the following gifts: A portable sound machine , which easily clips onto backpacks, diaper bags, and totes, makes it easy for kids and adults alike to snooze (almost) anywhere. Wearable tech, including Oura Rings and Apple Watches, is functional and, frankly, pretty neat, tracking biometrics like heart rate, step count, sleep, and more. Meanwhile, a quality pair of noise-canceling headphones can come in especially handy on plane, train, and car rides filled with screaming children, chatty seatmates, and, well, you get the gist.

Allow your giftee to enhance their in-flight entertainment set-up with a Bluetooth wireless transmitter, which lets them pair their wireless headphones to the seatback entertainment system without purchasing a pair of wired headphones while in the air. Finally, a tech accessory travel storage case will help keep wires and cables organized and tangle-free throughout the duration of their trip.

Home & kitchen items

These home and kitchen accessories will inspire wanderlust all year long. Highlights include scented candles and a fragrance diffuser set from one of our favorite hotel brands. In the kitchen, your giftee can enjoy at-home sushi nights, home-cooked Italian pasta courtesy of an incredible pasta maker that rolls and cuts the dough into traditional shapes like lasagna and taglioni, and authentic French press coffee reminiscent of the cups you’d find in a Parisian cafe. Other honorable mentions include a glossy travel-themed coffee-table book that’s chic enough to double as decor and a splurge-worthy sheet set from none other than the Four Seasons, transforming any ol’ bedroom into a luxury suite.

Gourmands will especially love one of these food-centric gifts , which lets them savor the flavors of the world from the comfort of home. For breakfast and brunch, they can feast on bagels and lox from NYC staple Russ & Daughters, while Lauduree’s French macaroons make the perfect afternoon pick-me-up. Similarly, sweet tooths can indulge in Belgian chocolate courtesy of Neuhaus; the 24-piece Collection Box is filled with a combination of pralinés, ganaches, and caramels that are (essentially) edible works of art. Meanwhile, those craving a sweet taste of Italy will especially enjoy the Pastificio G. Di Martino x Dolce & Gabbana Picnic Tin, which is filled with five one-pound pasta bags plus two picnic print placemats. If your giftee likes to try a bit of everything, snag them a snack box filled with Turkish delights, or, for something savory, a gourmet assortment of French cheeses coupled with smoked salmon, pork paté, trout roe, and French-made blinis.

The 40 Best Gifts for Travelers from Day Trip Adventures to Long Vacations

Adventurous friends and family will appreciate these travel must-haves including wireless headphones, luggage organization tools, and more starting at just $6.

If you buy something from the links on this page, we may earn a commission. Why Trust Us?

As a travel writer and professional shopper, I’ll be the first to admit that the best present for a loved one who loves to explore the globe might just be a plane ticket. But we didn’t just give you the second-best gift idea for a traveler. After researching, testing, and consulting on gift ideas with an expert flight attendant and travel author, Best Products gave you 42 more too.

There are two main types of travel gifts: the practical and the aspirational, explains Nikki Vargas , Senior Editor of Fodor’s Travel and author of the memoir Call Me When You Land . For Vargas, a practical gift would be an item to “make a traveler’s journey easier and safer.” She suggests picks like a carry-on suitcase, toiletries holder, or even a personal safety alarm. “An aspirational gift might inspire wanderlust, like an armchair traveler book that sweeps you across the globe or map to start tracking your trips.”

I tend to opt for practical items that can reduce the friction of being away, but others may prefer gifts to inspire wanderlust or sweet sentimental commemorations of a beloved venture. My own recommendations as a hotel reviewer and digital nomad range from a blackout sleep mask that salvaged my sleep in a boisterous hostel to the portable TV stick that made a cold resort room feel homey when I needed it most.

Check out our list of best travel gifts starting at just $6 — before your giftee checks in to their next flight.

K. Carroll Harper Crossbody Bag

This adorable (and affordable!) small purse, named one of Oprah's Favorite Things , is perfect for traveling. Made of synthetic leather, it holds all the essentials, such as your phone, credit cards, and cash. Plus, it comes in a ton of colors and patterns and can be worn across the body or on your belt.

Lululemon Everywhere Belt Bag

Look, you certainly don't need us to explain why a lululemon bag is a notable gift to give. But in this case, it's more than just attractive. This Everywhere Belt Bag is designed for those who embrace their wanderlust or their daily routine, with a comfortable fit that can be worn crossbody or around the waist. Its water-repellent fabric is a fit for any adventure, whether a hike or a night out.

Epicka Universal Travel Adapter

It may not be the most romantic travel gift, but frequent travelers definitely are always in need of this travel essential .

This all-in-one adapter works in almost every country (you can easily change prongs with a flip of a switch), charges up to five devices at once, has a built-in safety fuse, and comes in shades like grey, rose gold, or white.

Knock Knock Pack This! Pad

Eliminate the stress of packing for your giftee with a thorough list that will help every traveler keep track of everything in their suitcase (or everything they always forget). The list is quite extensive, so they can get as thorough as humanly possible as they plan for practically any trip and leave fully prepared.

Knild Magnetic Wireless Charger for Apple Devices

Carrying a tangled mess of charging cords while traveling is a bigger pain than it should be, as is carrying multiple plug adapters if you’re traveling internationally. So if you’re buying for someone loyal to Apple products, this foldable charger is an incredibly useful gift. Its strong magnetic pull ensures a stable connection to your device, and it takes up very little room in a backpack or handbag.

Veken Packing Cubes

For the traveler in your life who just can't seem to keep their suitcase in order, gift them a set of these discounted, durable, and lightweight polyester packing cubes available in 14 stylish colorways.

Packing cubes will compress their luggage so they can fill any suitcase to the brim while keeping their newly organized contents safe. Plus, the visible mesh fronts mean they can easily keep track of what’s stuffed where.

eBags Mother Lode Travel Backpack

Of the thousands on the market, the Mother Lode is the best travel backpack around the $200 price point considering it's packed with useful features. It has everything a traveler needs for maximizing carry-on space, like internal compression straps for clothing, external side straps for larger items like a tripod or rolled jacket, a laptop sleeve, lie-flat pockets for travel docs, and tuck-away backpack straps so you can use it like a duffel bag.

The clamshell-style, suitcase-like zipper is also helpful if you need to unpack your bag during a surprise TSA security search.

Que Bottle The Collapsible Bottle

Staying hydrated during travel is pretty darn important, you guys. This water bottle is the absolute best for traveling because it collapses small to fit easily into your carry-on. Head to the water fountain after you're through security, expand it out to full size, and make sure to drink up!

ThunderBunnyLabs USA Photo Map

Our 50 states encompass a rich array of ecological, sociological, and cultural diversity. Here's a way for those travelers working their way through the USA to display their favorite photos from every state, highlighting what landmarks and hidden gems made each location stand out.

National Geographic 100 Places That Will Change Your Life

For over a century, the pages of National Geographic have provided stories and images about the far reaches of the globe, allowing readers to visit new regions, if just in their minds. Now, your intrepid traveler friend can use those same pages to inspire their next real-life trip, in this sprawling collection of life-changing destinations, from the iconic to the hidden gems.

Jet Set Natural Jet Lag Remedy Pills

Pills might not seem like the most appropriate gift for someone, but anyone who has experienced jet lag knows it's no joke. This convenient little package can even be wrapped up with tickets to a faraway destination where the time-zone change can really get to a person.

Compendium “Everywhere You Go:” A Guided Travel Journal

This thought-provoking travel journal is a great travel gift for recent grads taking their first big trips abroad or anything who appreciates the life-changing moments that can happen on the road. They don’t have to be a writer or journalist to appreciate the book’s thoughtful prompts on everything from their favorite views on vacation to lessons they’ve learned while traveling.

The book is slim and small, and can be used while traveling or after they get home.

AllBirds Tree Runners

AllBirds is the brand most associated with the idea of “one-shoe-to-do-it-all” while traveling, and no single shoe shows that off better than the Tree Runner. The packable shoes won’t take up much space in the recipient's bag, and the cushioning and grip make them well-suited to light hikes and treks.

And if that hike happens to be muddy, no problem: they can throw them in the washing machine when they get home. Bonus: they don’t scream “athletic shoe,” so wearers won’t get laughed out of that Parisian cafe like they may if they showed up in traditional sneakers.

Intenext Book Reading Light

As convenient as e-readers like Kindles are, some people just like the feel of paper pages. And for those people, reading using an airplane’s overhead light can feel like someone is shining a flashlight in your eyes.
