Looking for unique gifts for travelers? Here are twenty-four meaningful travel gift ideas for the traveler in your life.
This gift guide is for the woman who catches flights instead of feelings, daydreams about faraway places, and lives for those ten(ish) OOO days when she can truly say ciao. Maybe she’s loved Italy since she watched The Lizzie McGuire Movie for the first time. Maybe she’s a collector of passport stamps and ticket stubs. And when she comes home from a trip, her souvenirs are worn, her clothes are rumpled with memories, and she — she’s aglow, refreshed. Her joy for life is magnetic.
These travel-themed gift ideas are for her. We’ve rounded up twenty-four meaningful, unique gifts for the travel-loving woman in your life, and if you’re that woman who loves to travel, feel free to treat yourself.

The Adventure Book
Gifts For Travelers
This Adventure Book
is for the artsy traveler who doodles, sketches, paints, and scrapbooks her adventures. Think simple journal spreads for 196 countries (and 69 territories) and travel-themed pages to deepen memories.
Letterfolk Road Trip Journal
Gifts For Travelers
This Passport-Sized Journal
is one of the cutest stocking stuffer gifts for the traveler who cares more about the journey than the destination. Use it to log road trips and snapshot memories!
These Cozy Travel Books
for those who delight in every moment
🗺️ A Year In Tokyo: a former travel writer’s memoir and mixed media guidebook to Japan

🗺️ Pacific Coasting: a whimsically illustrated West Coast guidebook perfect for the travel lover planning a Pacific Coast Highway getaway (or the one looking to reminisce)
Weekend Vibes Bag
Gifts For Travelers
This Weekend Vibes Bag
is a mood. Playful, confident, clocked out for the week vibes. The tote is fully cotton, with sturdy leather handles holding up a canvas roomy enough for road trip snacks and a book.
Travel Set Pouch
Gifts For Travelers
This Cozy Pouch
has a creamy, neutral palette. Inside is a little phone stand, cord organizer, sleep mask, pair of earplugs, and silk scrunchie – all are welcome upgrades for the traveler who insists on flying frill-free budget airlines.
These Travel Gifts For Her
top-tier, highly-rated choices
🗺️ Travel Cable Organizer: one of the most practical gifts for frequent travelers, this soft leather cord organizer (for Apple cables) can be customized with an embossed name and birth flower!
🗺️ Scratch Off Bucket List: you’ve listened to her get excited about particular places and watched her eyes light up at the names of dream destinations. You know where she wants to go. So now, all you have to do is send those city names to this designer, and they will make a cute, custom scratch-off bucket list.
🗺️ European Scratch Map: for the traveler who has gone on a European adventure. This map is all about the details, so she can scratch off just a city (if she wants) instead of a whole country.
🗺️ Stitch-Where-You’ve-Been Passport Cover: this passport cover becomes more personal and meaningful with every trip. The vegan leather is pre-perforated, so you can easily stitch where you’ve been. A travel needle and thread are included!
Apple AirTag
Gifts For Travelers
This Tracking Device
is the perfect gift for the anxious traveler (I’m totally this person) who wants a little peace of mind. After connecting the AirTag to her iPad or iPhone, she’ll feel a smidge more relaxed about the location of her bags and passport.
Travel Document Organizer
Gifts For Travelers
This RFID-Blocking Wallet
doesn’t come with an AirTag, but has an AirTag slot. It’s a stylish (and practical) gift that can snugly hold boarding passes, loose cash and coins, admission tickets, and of course, a passport.
These Gifts For The Woman In Love With Italy
if you don’t know that woman, you might be her:
🇮🇹 Italian Travel Journal: this blank-page notebook, with a map of Italy, laser-cut onto a thick cover, will win the love of any Italophile.
🇮🇹 Andiamo Sweater: a cozy, summery pink Vespa sweater with the ultimate “out of office, ciao, bella” vibes.
🇮🇹 Italian Countryside Print: this fairytale watercolor print of the little Italian town of Orvieto is perfect for the travel lover who watches Letters to Juliet and Under the Tuscan Sun on repeat.
Travel Paint-By-Numbers Kit
Gifts For Travelers
This Paint Anywhere Kit
is one of the best travel gifts I have ever received. I recommend the 16×20 paint-by-number kits over the 8×10 kits! The detailed 16×20 canvases come with a wide range of thick, vibrant paint colors. The paintings take a while to fill in, so this gift is best for the patient traveler who is only sometimes on the go.
These Luxury Gifts For Travel Lovers
for that special someone you want to splurge on
🗺️ Tinggly: the recipient gets a cute gift box and e-voucher and then chooses a once-in-a-lifetime experience (and when she wants to go). I personally think Tinggly is overpriced, but I don’t think anyone would complain if they received a travel gift like this.
🗺️ Getaway Cabin: cozy, semi-secluded, tiny cabins in the woods (with little amenities and a bed next to a sunlight-dripping window) just a short drive from busy American cities. Use our exclusive code TOEDEN for $25 off.
🗺️ Faredrop Subscription: a great wedding or gap year gift, Faredrop is a flight deal notification system that scans the web for the best flight deals and sends them to your inbox! The Pro Plan can help save $100s of dollars on international flights and will make any frequent traveler confident they can travel even more.
Travel Puzzle
Gifts For Travelers
This Map Puzzle
is another one of the best gifts I’ve received. I’m a travel lover and homebody, so this whimsical 500-piece map puzzle was fun to piece together (the puzzle took half a Saturday to complete, and it looked so cute, I ended up modge-podging and framing it near my entryway).
These Travel Coffee Table Books
FOMO-free places for travel inspiration
🗺️ Accidentally Wes Anderson: think psychotically symmetrical and aggressively pastel travel photography. This book will make any traveler smile, and Wes Anderson himself writes the forward!
🗺️ Chic Stays: celebrities like Florence Welch, Sofia Coppola, and Eva Longoria describe their favorite getaways. Chic Stays is for the traveler equally obsessed with Vogue and Conde Nast Traveler.
🗺️ Atlas Obscura: a cabinet of curiosities in coffee table book form. This book is all the weird, odd, and truly bizarre places you never knew you wanted to see.
