Unique budget gift ideas for Travel lovers for under £30

1) PASSPORT HOLDER FROM £4.65

A passport holder is a great and affordable gift for every travel lover. Not only does it make their passport stand out so they can keep track of it but it protects it to! You could even look into a personalized passport holder on Etsy.

2) TRAVEL JOURNAL FROM £4.99

Even if your friend is not a big writer, having some paper is really useful when travelling to jot down random pieces of information, whilst also being a great place to record memories.

3) MICROFIBRE TRAVEL TOWEL FROM £6.99

Although it would be amazing to travel with a big fluffy towel, it is not practical. Microfibre towels are lightweight and dry quickly, they are essential to any travel lover, and something I always pack for a trip!

 

4) HEADLAMP FROM £7.99

You would be surprised by how many times I wished I had a headlamp whilst travelling. Luckily phones nowadays do have torches but these definitely aren’t as strong as a headlamp, and also require you to carry them.

5) EDITING PRESETS FROM £7.99

If your friend is into photography and capturing their travel memories, then Lightroom presets are a great gift to help them improve their photos. Presets are available both for laptops and the free mobile app. My editing presets are available in my shop.

6) TRAVEL JEWELLERY BOX FROM £9.99

A really pretty gift idea for a travel lover is a miniature jewellery box! These come in a variety of sizes depending on if your friend has more earrings, rings or necklaces.

 

7) REUSABLE WATER BOTTLE FROM £10.49

When you’re travelling for long periods it’s super important to bring water with you. Every traveller needs a good reusable water bottle, not only is it a useful gift but it’s eco friendly too! I have one from Chilly’s which keeps my drink hot or cold.

8) PACKING CUBES FROM £16.99

Another travel essential is packing cubes! These help to keep your suitcase so much more tidier and organised.

 

9) GIFT A TRAVEL EXPERIENCE FROM £16.99

A great gift idea for any travel lover is an experience that they can enjoy abroad! From learning to bake croissants in Paris to flying over the Grand Canyon, there is something for everybody! You can book a variety of experiences through Get Your Guide.

10) TRAVEL HAMMOCK FROM £18.99

For the camping loving friend, a great gift idea is a portable hammock for their travel adventures!

 

 

11) PORTABLE CHARGER FROM £19.99

Nowadays we use our phones so much, especially when travelling. Whether we’re taking photos, using a map or watching Netflix on a long bus ride. My phone’s battery barely lasts a day so I always have a portable charger with me. Power banks are also useful for those long camping or hiking trips when you might not have electricity for a while.

12) TRIPOD FROM £20

Whether your friend prefers to travel solo or in a group, a tripod is the ideal gift to help them take the best photos! Amazon offer a great affordable tripod, however if your friend has a heavy camera I would recommend investing in a sturdier tripod.

 

13) HOTEL GIFT CARD FROM £20

What do you buy someone who has everything? Why not offer them a hotel gift card? booking.com have gift cards of varying amounts that can be used toward a night stay in a hotel of their choice!

14) HIKING STICKS FROM £25

If you’re friend is into walking, then a great gift idea could be some hiking sticks!



15) BACKPACKS FROM £25

I personally always travel with a backpack. From small waterproof bags to large travel rucksacks. Even a small one is super useful for those active days where you walk a lot. Backpacks are a must have for a long travel trip!

16) ENGRAVED STREET MAP COASTERS FROM £25

On Etsy you can find lots of unique gifts made by small businesses for travel lovers! For example these beautiful acrylic engraved street map coasters.

17) WORLD MAP FROM £40

A world map is a very popular gift to get travel lovers, so why not make it more unique? Enjoy the Wood offer beautiful world maps made of wood. They come in a range of different sizes and colours to suit any home. You can even get country pins with little flags on so that you can pin the places you’ve travelled too!

18) KINDLE FROM £69.99

An ebook reader like a Kindle makes the best travel companion! Not only can it keep you entertained for hours but it’s a lot lighter to carry than a load of books! A kindle is a great gift for travel lovers, you could also offer them some book credit to go with it!

Unique gift ideas for Travel lovers over £100

19) NEW CAMERA LENS FROM £119

A camera lens is a great present for photography lovers. Known as the ‘nifty fifty’ the canon 50d 1.8 is a beautiful lens for portraits (lovely blurry background), and it is super affordable too! I also love the Tamron 70-300mm for epic landscape shots or portraits.

20) HANDHELD TRANSLATOR FROM £250

If you’re searching for a gift for someone who loves to travel all over and chat with as many locals as possible then you might want to  buy them a handheld translator! I have the Pocketalk Voice Translator which is able to do a 2-way translation. This means that I can speak to someone in English and have it translated into their language, and then back into English when they reply! It comes with its own SIM card so it can connect to the internet all over the world. Pocketalk not only allows you to chat with locals but also helps you to learn the language of the country you’re in!

21) GO PRO FROM £299

The Go Pro is a great gift for that friend who loves adventure! This waterproof and shockproof camera is a great way to document travels both with videos and photos! The ultra wide fish angle lens makes it easy to take selfies with all of the background in! You could also offer them a selfie stick or accessories to go with it!

22) DRONE FROM £329

A drone is really a magical gift for travel lovers! The ability to take bird eye view photos and videos will really help to up their photography and videography game! You’ll need to dig deep into your pockets to get one with a decent camera quality, but it will be 100% worth it! I recommend getting a DJI drone as they are the most adapted for travellers (light and small).
