BEST TRAVEL GIFTS FOR HER
1. PACSAFE STYLESAFE ANTI-THEFT CROSS-BODY PURSE

This little beauty has been my constant companion since we started travelling full-time almost four years ago. With all of its anti-theft functions, it takes all the worry out of walking around busy tourist areas. It’s big enough for my iPhone, phone charger, passports, wallet and a few other bits and pieces.
It has slashguard material, Turn and Lock-zip security and an in-built RFID to protect credit cards and passport IDs from scam scanners.
It wipes clean and even though I’ve used it almost every day it is still in great condition. It’s the one item I wouldn’t have been without. I have the black one but it also comes in mocha and navy
This is the perfect travel gift for someone who will be visiting crowded cities and needs that extra security on their handbag.
Various styles and colours can be found on Amazon too.

3. WOMEN’S WALLET
This soft leather purse is RFID SAFE and is a much better option than using paper RFID wallets which can be a real pain trying to get your credit card out of each time you use it. Therefore a wallet like this is perfect for anyone who loves to travel.
This handy travel wallet not only comes in lots of different colours.
4. TRAVEL COOKERY BOOK — GETAWAY: FOOD AND DRINK TO TRANSPORT YOU
For travel lovers who love to cook this is a wonderful gift to bring back memories or to inspire future travels.
Acclaimed chef Renee Erickson invites the reader on a culinary journey via her favourite places in the world―Rome, Paris, Normandy, Baja California, London, and her hometown, Seattle.
A travelogue and practical guide to cooking at home, the book offers 120 recipes and 60 cocktail recipes for simple meals that evoke the dreamiest places and cuisines

7. TRAVEL JOURNAL
I was given a travel journal as a gift before leaving on our adventures and it made it that little bit extra special every time I used it.
My favourite pick is this Vintage Travel Journal But there are so many designs to choose from on Amazon, including beautiful leather travel journals.
You could think about adding some coloured journal pens to help make journal writing more fun. A great easy travel gift.
8. TRAVEL PILL ORGANISER
Each travel pill box consists of 6 small and 2 large compartments for different sizes of pills and vitamins.
Made with durable material, moisture-proof and easily portable. Fits snuggly in a coat pocket, handbag or backpack.
9. LIGHTWEIGHT INFINITY NECK SCARF – W/ZIPPER POCKET
Having a lightweight scarf has been really handy on our travels. It can be used to keep out the chill, dress up a plain t-shirt, and can be popped over your head when visiting religious places.
This quality made infinity scarf has the added bonus of a zip pocket for storing a credit card or any other light belongings, such as lipstick. It’s great for hiding credit cards and IDs while travelling.
There are various styles and colours, to choose from – I’d avoid a black one with a white zip though because that’s not really a hidden zip!
10. HANGING TOILETRY BAG – LARGE COSMETIC MAKEUP TRAVEL ORGANIZER
.
Having a place for all of your toiletries is a must while travelling, and after having been in so many showers that don’t have a bench to put your things on — just a hook on the door —then this hangable toiletry bag comes in really handy.
I have this actual one and love it.
This is a great travel gift for someone who will be travelling in a motorhome, campervan or camping.
11. PORTABLE PHONE CHARGER
This travel phone charger fits in your purse just like lipstick. It’s both a cute and useful travel gift.
Having a portable phone charger while travelling is super handy — especially if you are also using your phone as a camera or using GPS because the battery runs down much quicker.
This one has the added bonus of having a torch within it.
12. THE BEST WOMEN’S TRAVEL WRITING
I absolutely loved this book, The Best Women’s Travel Writing, Volume 12: True Stories from Around the World which is the latest collection in the best-selling, award-winning series that invites you into the stories and lives of intrepid female nomads as they wander the globe discovering new places, faces, and facets of themselves.
13. TRAVEL ORGANISER INSERT TIDY COSMETIC HANDBAG
This nifty little bag is really handy and cheap! It’s perfect for popping in another bag to keep makeup or cables organised.
When it’s not in my backpack it’s in my drawer keeping everything in order. It also comes in purple, blue, orange and black.
14. The Freshette (Pee Funnel)
I absolutely wouldn’t be without my Freshette when travelling. It’s the perfect travel gift for all women … especially if travelling in the bush or the outback, on long road trips and hiking.
When you gotta go, you gotta go! This reusable, washable funnel can easily be packed in a backpack, car glove compartment or even a handbag.
It is my lifesaver when we are travelling in Africa.
15. Vlando Viaggio Small Jewellery Case Box,
This practical Viaggio Jewellery roll-up case fits in a handbag, backpack or suitcase. It’s an ideal on-the-go companion and will keep jewellery organized and easy to find.
The jewellery box is made from durable synthetic leather with a velvet lining to protect accessories from getting tangled, damaged or lost.
16. MATCHING PASSPORT HOLDER AND LUGGAGE TAGS
World Map Design Passport holder & luggage tags are the perfect gift idea for any avid traveller.
The passport holder has card slots, passport block and travel document holder, making it convenient to keep your passport, bank card and air ticket all easily on hand during your travels.
This attractive and stylish pair sets the mood for exploring the world.
17. CUTE LILLY PULITZER VEGAN LEATHER PASSPORT POUCH
This cute Lilly Pulitzer Vegan Leather passport holder is that extra special travel gift for her.
It comes in 7 different pretty designs and has three card slots, and easily fits in purses and bags making this the perfect travel accessory for any adventure.
18. Pacsafe Go Anti-theft Sling Pack

This Pacsafe Go anti-theft sling pack is not only pretty in pink but is so functional and eco-friendly.
It’s the perfect accessory for someone on the GO! and ideal for city day trips, long walks, sightseeing, music festivals, bike rides, or a night out. The sling pack has anti-theft security and is made from 6 recycled plastic bottles.
It comes in pink, black and grey.

USEFUL & UNIQUE TRAVEL GIFTS
19. BUY A TINGGLY ULTIMATE TRAVEL EXPERIENCE
Now, if there is one gift that is a no-brainer for a travel lover is the gift of an ‘experience’ rather than ‘things’. I definitely get the ‘travel tingle’ when I look through all the amazing options available.

20. KINDLE PAPERWHITE, WATERPROOF SIGNATURE EDITION
When travelling you need as much space-saving as possible. Up until recently, I was reading books on my Ipad but it was always difficult to read outside, so I am loving my paperwhite Kindle which is easy to read outdoors and has the added bonus of being waterproof.
This version comes with a wireless charging unit and leather cover.
Give this great travel gift of easy reading to your travel lover and they’ll think of you every time they open it.
🎁 Buy this great Kindle on Amazon here
21. SUBSCRIPTION TO KINDLE UNLIMITED … OR AUDIBLE
Why not gift a subscription to Kindle Unlimited? You can cancel the subscription at any time, so it’s really worth signing up for at least the first month free.
Another great gift idea for a traveller is Audible. Whether on a road trip, a long flight or backpacking, being able to listen to a book while on the move is an added bonus. This comes with a free one-month trial too.
22. WHO KNOWS WHERE
This is one of our favourite games. This brilliant, award-winning board game has over 1000 questions in 5 categories, including capitals, major cities and towns, events and facts, famous tourist sites and beautiful images of iconic landmarks.
Everyone plays at the same time, so no hanging around waiting for your turn. Where in the World is an educational and fun game perfect for travel lovers.

23. TRAVEL PILLOW
This travel pillow is a little different to the standard as it is a Twist, Memory Foam Travel Pillow.
It provides head, chin and neck support and is particularly great for long travels.
It comes with earplugs, a sleep mask and a travel bag. The cover is machine washable for a fresh experience every time.
24. SONY WH-1000XM4 NOISE CANCELLING WIRELESS HEADPHONES
Sony WH-1000XM4 Noise Cancelling Wireless Headphones with Mic, 30 Hours Battery Life, Quick Charge, and ALEXA voice control.
Noise-cancelling earphones definitely make a flight more comfortable and with 30 hours of battery life, these will last most long-distance flights.
25. 3 in 1 Retractable Charging Cable
This one retractable cable Offers USB C, Micro USB, and a Phone Port to replace a whole mess of cables. 3 in 1 multi-charging cable works well with all kinds of cell phones, tablets, laptops, and power banks. No need to get leads tangled in your baggage.
26. LUGGAGE TAGS – THE PERFECT SMALL GIFT
You can’t go wrong with these gorgeous luggage tags as a small travel gift or stocking filler. There are so many varied designs to choose from. Click on the images above or check out all the other amazing designs on Amazon.
27. MICROFIBRE BEACH TOWEL
This extra-large microfiber towel is lightweight, compact and soft. The perfect travel towel for beach, camping or travelling light.
As Antoine de St. Exupery said,
‘He who would travel happily must travel light.”
28. 8-PCS LUGGAGE PACKING CUBES
These lightweight premium upgraded nylon fabric packing cases are just fantastic. They are hard wearing and the mesh part enables you to see the clothes that are inside. You can pack all the same types of clothes together and saves heaps of time rather than rummaging around in your suitcase to find something. I just love these and am really happy with this brand.
They are an invaluable part of our travel accessories and would make a handy practical travel gift.
They come in assorted colours too. We recommend getting different colours for each person to differentiate packing.
29. ANTI-THEFT BACKPACK

This anti-theft backpack has been another lifesaver whilst we have travelled across Europe. It has anti-slash mesh material and a metal mesh lockable pulley cord. This both closes the bag and can also be locked to something to prevent grab and run.
In the campervan, we attached it to the table and locked all our laptops etc. inside. It would make things very difficult for any opportunistic thieves and it really puts safety at the top of the agenda.
🎁 Buy This invaluable Backpack From PACSAFE here
30. BENRO 3XS LITE SMARTPHONE STABILIZER GIMBAL
Our Benro Gimbal has been fantastic. The quality of the videos we take is now much better without all the jolting around.
The collapsable arm means it’s easy to store and it has the added bonus of being used as a tripod if necessary.
It’s also easy to change from portrait to landscape mode at a touch of a button and to zoom in and out as well as pan around.
Another great gift idea for a traveller – especially if they are going to be taking videos with their smartphone.
31. ANCESTRY DNA KIT
One more idea for an unusual and unique gift is to buy an Ancestry DNA Testing Kit – this is ideal for those of us who are travellers who aren’t at home to buy presents. The kit can be sent directly to the recipient as a gift. How cool would it be to find out where in the world all your ancestors have come from?
32. DIGITAL LUGGAGE SCALE
One of our main concerns each time we take a flight is whether we will be over on our luggage allowance. It’s also not ideal when you are checking in and trying to juggle weights between your bags or deciding which items you can get rid of so you don’t have to pay any astronomical excess baggage fees.
This small and lightweight digital scale is just perfect for popping into your bag and is great for taking the stress out of possible excess baggage fees. This is another really practical and handy travel gift.
🎁 Buy Luggage Scales on Amazon here
33. PORTABLE PHONE CHARGER
There is nothing more annoying than not being able to capture a stunning shot or being stranded without directions because your phone battery has died. Therefore, this item is a necessity for convenience and safety when travelling.
This Bonai Power Bank is powerful, and light with high-speed charging technology.
34. TRAVEL ADAPTER PLUG
Having an International travel adapter with USB charging ports is super handy because sometimes you only have one power outlet and with laptops, iPhones and iPads to charge it can be quite a juggle.
This adapter is great for worldwide travel.
35. CABLE ORGANIZER BAG – FOR HARD DRIVES, CABLES, CHARGER
Travelling with laptops, iPhones, cameras, iPad, portable phone chargers, hard drives etc. means we have a lot of cables that tended to get jumbled up and lost in the bottom of our bags – until we bought this cable organiser.
It saves so much time because we’re not searching around in every little nook and cranny trying to find the right cable. It also comes in grey and pink.
PERFECT TRAVEL GIFTS FOR GUYS WHO LOVE TO TRAVEL
It always seems so much harder to buy travel gifts for the men in our lives.
With three grown sons, you’d think I’d have it off-pat by now but it’s still a struggle. My go-to gifts are normally practical, electronic, books or photographic equipment.
