25 Gifts For The Guy Who Loves To Travel
Is your man obsessed with travel? With the holiday season fast approaching, he’ll need some new gifts to accompany him during his next trip. Here’s a list of twenty-five gifts for the guy who loves to travel.
1. Olympus Tough TG-5
The Olympus TG-5 is great for the man who loves to travel. It’s lightweight, waterproof, and crushproof at certain heights. More importantly, it has 4K video quality at 30p or high-speed footage at 120p in Full HD. It’ll capture every wrinkle in his smile and every spec in the air.

2. Iphone 11
If he’s wanting a new phone anyways, the iphone 11 is the perfect option for the man who loves to travel. Disregarding all the Android supremacist who would say otherwise, it’s really the best phone on the market. And with a camera that shoots 1080p HD video at 60 fps, he’ll be able to capture every blissful moment of his trip.

3. A Map
He’ll love showing off his geographical knowledge. Some may roll their eyes, but you love his pedantry as he corrects his friends. And most of all, it’ll be emblematic of his love for travel.
4. A Party
Before he leaves for his travels, he’ll need the last memory of his loved ones to be inexorable. Throwing a party will show him that his loved ones care enough to savor their last moments with him before he takes flight. It’ll show him that you don’t just love him but that you love spending time with him.
5. A Topographic Map
A topographic map of the area he’s traveling to will show him the elevations in the land. He’ll be able to know which hikes are treacherous and which are sufficiently challenging. It’ll be an unexpected gift that he’ll love.

6. A Snow Globe
If he’s traveling to warmer areas during the holidays, a snow globe is a great, lightweight option. He can sit it on his nightstand and cherish the warmer weather, or he could think of you and long to come home, which is just what you want.

7. A Rei Tent
You really can’t go wrong with Rei. Every tent is made to withstand harsh elements and still stay intact. He’ll be delighted that you thought of his toils while camping enough to purchase him a tent. Plus, his old tent has probably seen better days.
Buy this:
8. A Sleeping Bag
Keeping with camping gear, he’ll need a new sleeping bag to go along with the tent. For sleeping bags as well, I would go with Rei for the maximum comfort during cold winter nights. Plus, you may be able to get in some snuggling before his flight.

9. A New Book
Though he loves travelling, he’ll likely get bored during his trip without you. Therefore, a good book can provide a means of escape from his melancholy. He can even wrap himself in his new sleeping bag as he reads it.
10. Amazon Kindle
Just in case he won’t settle for a hard copy, an Amazon Kindle can come in good use. It’s perfect for a pitch-black forest, and he’ll love the long battery life. He won’t have to resort to traveling back and forth to charge his portable charger.

11. A Portable Charger
A charger has no use without a plug unless, of course, you have a portable charger. This gift is especially useful on a hike when there’s not a plugin sight. I recommend the Anker brand for the longest charge.
Buy this:
12. Airpods
Music will be another vital tool he’ll need to escape his boredom, and new air pods will take his listening experience to the next level. People will likely give him odd looks during the plane ride, but he’ll be too immersed in the music to care.
Get it here:
13. A Movie
If, despite all of those distractions, he’s still utterly bored, try downloading a movie onto his phone. He can follow the story without engaging any of his brain cells. Or you can buy him the new season of his favorite episode. I recommend the new season of Glow.
14. A Car
If you’re willing to go on the more expensive side of things, you can rent him a car for his travels so he’s not waiting for Uber after Uber. Just make sure he knows that you have a tracker on him to prevent any one-night stands.
15. New Clothes
Clothes are great for a shift in the weather. Whether he’s traveling to a cooler area or a warmer area, he’ll need more clothes to account for the change in temperature. I recommend purchasing Patagonia for the winter months.
16. A Compass
In case his phone can’t help him, a compass is a great gift to help him find his destination. They’re particularly useful for escaping the forest.

17. A Neck Pillow
These come in handy during flights. He’ll be thanking you when he returns.
Get it here:
18. Duffel Bags
Occasionally, if he’s purchased way too many souvenirs, his suitcase may be too heavy to check on a plane. In this rare circumstance, he’ll need multiple duffel bags for his trap, and his old ones are a bit worn out. Again, I recommend Patagonia (yes, I’m biased).
Get it here:
19. Luggage
Luggage is a better choice for the man who isn’t obsessed with souvenirs. Again, his old luggage is worn out. Don’t let him board the plane with it.
Get it here:
20. Cologne
If severe body odor plagues your man, cologne is the best gift for his travels. It’s lightweight and easy to carry onto a plane. Plus, it’s incredibly robust, which means you’ll never run out. Just make sure the scent isn’t so great that it’ll attract other girls.

21. A Portable Speaker
A JBL Xtreme is the perfect gift if he wants other people to listen. That way he doesn’t have to worry about all that gross earwax coating his airpods (that’s a personal pet peeve of mine).
Buy this:
22. Snacks
This is hardly a sufficient gift on its own, but a snack tends to come in handy on a flight. Your commercial flight won’t allow them? Just take the risk! It’ll be worth the anxiety.
23. Pictures
If the trip is long, he’ll want some pictures of his family.
24. Binoculars
No way of seeing the full beauty of those distant mountains? Now he does. Binoculars are a must for the avid hiker.

25. A Kiss
This last gift is so sappy, but you know it’ll be the most appreciated before he leaves.
