6 holiday gifts for the traveler on your list

Does your holiday shopping list include an avid traveler? Whether that person is planning for one of our student educational travel programs in 2016, or embarking on their dream tour of Southeast Asia, here are some great—and practical—holiday gift ideas for the explorer on your list.

Portable Charger

We live in a connected world and many of us rely on our smartphones to document our adventures. Help your favorite traveler avoid being left with a dead battery while looking over the Parthenon by gifting them with a portable phone charger so they can keep their battery full of juice while on the go.

Phone lenses

Turn those smartphone shots into high quality photos with detachable photo lenses. Some phone lenses are even capable of producing DSLR-quality shots! Bonus? A detachable lens is a lot easier to travel with than a bulky camera.

Passport Cover

Help that adventurer dress up their passport with a passport cover. Colorful covers also help the traveler locate their passport in the bottom of their bag quickly when the need to present it arises.

Power Adapter

Power sources vary country to country. A power adapter makes a great gift, and ensures your favorite traveler will be able to power their devices, no matter what country they are in.

Travel Guidebooks

One of the downsides of planning a trip? Waiting for departure day to finally arrive. Help the time go by with the gift of guidebooks. They will be able to read all about their destination, its history, and pick up tips from the locals.

Luggage

Feeling generous? Any traveler will appreciate the gift of luggage, whether it’s a weekender bag or a suitcase big enough to fit all of their souvenirs from their European adventure. You can always throw in customized luggage tags as well!
