When it comes to travel gifts, there are many routes to take: You can get your go-to vacation companion something practical that they’ll reach for every time they take out their carry-on. Or, you can gift something to encourage them to start planning that next trip—and hopefully invite you along. There are also gifts that bring travel to them, making the space between trips feel a bit more like a vacation, and experience gifts to make their next trip even more exciting. No matter the occasion, or the traveler, we’ve rounded up nearly 60 travel gifts from brands we love, so you can find something for each person on your list.
For even more specific gift guides, be sure to check out all our recommended gifts for travelers, which we’ve gathered for you here. And keep an eye on the calendar—the sooner the better if you’re shipping presents straight to a giftee, or mailing to yourself to wrap. Standard free shipping deadlines end as early as December 13 for delivery by Christmas, so aim to order by that date if you’re hoping to avoid shipping costs.
