Holiday Gift Guide: 7 Presents For Men Who Travel

With Thanksgiving almost here and Christmas right around the corner, it seems like the perfect time to talk about gifts for men!

gifts for travelers
world scratch off travel map
The first gift on my list is one that can be meaningful in many ways: a scratch-off travel map. I have already purchased this for Nick, and he claims it is one of his all-time favorite gifts ever. If you are giving this to the traveler you love, it can be one of many things: places you have been together, places he has been, or even places that you both have been and future destinations. Whatever the case, this scratch off travel map will be sure to please!


The second item is a sturdy carry-on suitcase. This suitcase may be (and, probably is!) too small for most women- but for men, it is perfect. The bag will fit under your airplane seat, and also has a separate  frontal compartment for your laptop or iPad. With this, you won't have to worry about the hassle of removing electronics from your bag- as they are in their own compartment, no worries!
iPhone Power Bank…Give the traveler you love a little boost of power, anytime they need it! Power banks usually give you at least a few hours of extra battery life, if not an entire day. No matter what, the banks are easy to pack in your bag and take with on your travels, guaranteeing you connectivity, whether you need it for photos, maps, or communication! The highest ranked on Amazon now: Anker.


Noise-cancelling headphones are another great gift for men who travel. The most popular and top-of-the-line are Bose Noise Cancelling Headphones. However, if the retail price is a little high, personally I purchase Skullcandy headphones for both Nick and I, which work great for what we need!

This USB Travel Shaver is another great option for a guy who frequently travels. It is easily portable, as it is smaller then a smartphone and charges with a USB cord. This is the perfect gift for a guy on the go!
There isn't much that is worse than arriving to your travel destination and discovering wrinkly clothes from being packed away. Fortunately, with this portable steamer, the problem is now solved! Of course, wrinkle-free shirts are always a possibility, but even those may come away with a wrinkle or two.
The last item on my list today is this compact, portable down jacket. When traveling towards cold weather, it is often difficult to pack warm clothes. Fortunately, this jacket stuffs into a small pouch, taking up a minimal amount of room and allowing your traveler plenty of space for other items.

So there you have it with 7 great gift ideas for guys who frequently travel! When you are traveling, what is your number one must-have item?

  17. Those noise cancelling headphones would be great on a plane. They'd also ward off communication if the person next to you was weird. #justsaying :)

  18. My husbands birthday is coming up soon. I am really considering that iPhone batter. We do have car chargers and wall chargers here at home, but he works in a hospital. With those 12 hour shifts, he can often have battery loss. I think this would be a nice gift for him.

  25. This is a great list. My husband and I both travel a lot, and I'm always in need of good gift ideas for him. (I love the down jacket!)

  26. My husband's number one travel item is his ipod mini and a baseball hat. He loads up the ipod with podcasts and puts the hat over his eyes so no one talks to him. :)
