Best Travel Gifts for Men (Updated for Father’s Day 2023)

What do you get for the guy who has everything? What about travel gifts for men on the go? How about a scratch-off world map? Portable hammock? Or a romantic just-for-two trip to a luxury all-inclusive resort? From gifts that sell for less than $20 to some that sell for a whole lot more, we’ve got the gifts your guy wants.

Forget the t-shirt, tie and gift card this Father’s Day. Instead, choose one of these great travel gifts for men.

1. Electronics Organizer Travel Case

We all stuff more cords than underwear into our duffel bags these days. Help your guy keep his iPhone charger and computer cables organized and in one place with this electronics organizer travel case. His battery life will thank you.

2. Packing Cubes

They’re one of our most recommended gifts because they make packing so easy! With these stylish packing cubes, he can pack more into each suitcase. Even better, unpacking in the hotel room is easy; just slip the packing cube into the drawer. These travel accessories really up the functionality of any suitcase.

Traveling as a family? We recommend buying different colored cubes for everyone in the family, so it’s easy for the kids to identify their stuff.

3. Personalized Leather Passport Holder

Every adventure you’ve taken together (or solo) tells a story. With this personalized leather passport cover, you can make sure the best moments are never forgotten. Engrave it with a destination, date or quote that keeps your memories close, even when you’re miles apart. Plus, it features two large pockets for his passport and two smaller pockets for his cards and cash.

4. Carry-On Cocktail

Know someone who’s always on the go? This carry-on cocktail kit makes the coolest gift!

5. Scratch Off World Map

Imagine the joy that comes from experiencing a destination and then scratching that location off your world travel wall map. With this Scratch Off World Map, the travel enthusiast in your life can keep track of just how far he’s gone!

6. Bluetooth Tracker for His Wallet

One frequent traveler we know (we won’t name names here, but he knows who he is) has a bad habit of taking his wallet out of his pocket and putting it … somewhere. Then, when it’s time to fill up the gas tank on road trips, a panicked search of the car ensues. Enter the Bluetooth tracker finder. It’s an ultra-slim credit card sized device that slips into his wallet. Then, when the wallet is lost, he can use an app on his phone to make the card ring. Easy Peasy!

7. BlendJet Travel Blender

The BlendJet 2 Portable Travel Blender is perfect for making your favorite smoothies, shakes or margaritas on the go! With just the push of a button, his favorite beverage will be blended to perfection and ready to drink straight from the jar. He’ll also love how easy it is to clean and recharge with a simple USB port. Even better, it’s water-resistant and can handle being accidentally dropped in a pool – not that he would…

8. Travel Coffee Maker

Never be too far away from a great cup of coffee with this favorite travel coffee press! We love this stainless steel Bodum Travel Coffee Press because it’s a coffee press and travel mug in one – making it the best travel gift for the man who can’t make it through the day without his cup o’ morning joe (and maybe that afternoon cup too).

9. Telescoping Magnetic Flashlight

Enhance his road trip toolkit with a telescoping magnetic flashlight. When vehicle repairs need to be done on the go, he’ll appreciate having this compact tool at the ready! Because it’s magnetic, it can also help him find that bolt he dropped in the dirt or grass.

10. Wooden Wall Map

Made of high-quality birch plywood, this 3D Wooden Wall Map is a perfect addition to any traveler’s home! Use push pins to map off where you’ve been – or where you dream to go.

11. Portable Hammock

Whether camping or simply making the most of any opportunity to relax, all men deserve this ENO Hammock. Why is this hammock made of breathable woven nylon with high-strength triple interlocking stitching the perfect travel gift for men? Because it folds into a travel bag the size of a softball! That makes it easy to take along on any trip.

12. Rainbow Sandals

You know that pair of favorite travel shoes that you always take with you? The ones that seem to go anywhere? These Rainbow Sandals may just become that go-to shoe for the traveler in your life. This classic men’s sandal is made of genuine leather and features a non-slip sole. Perfect for wherever his travels take him.

13. Allbirds Shoes

Frequent traveler Kim Orlando raves about these travel shoes. “I can walk for miles (and I do!) with no issue. They wash up perfectly,” she says. Every member of her family — including her husband and two sons — has at least one pair. Trust us: One of our biggest travel tips is “always pack comfortable shoes.” As a bonus, these are easy to take off for TSA and comfy enough for long flights.

14. Digital Photo Frame

This is NOT your typical digital photo frame. What makes this photo frame “special” is that you can send photos to an email address and those photos will instantly appear on the frame. The Skylight Frame is a great gift for travelers who want to share their adventures with the folks at home. What a beautiful way to stay connected with the ones we love and miss the most!

15. Hey Dude Lace Up Loafers

Treat his feet to a vacation with Hey Dude Lace Up Loafers–the shoe travelers are raving about! They’re lightweight, breathable, easy to fold for packing and the best part is, they’re fully machine washable. This really helps to cut down on odors. Not that his feet stink or anything…

16. Mini Portable LED Projector

With the Mini Portable LED Projector, he can turn any room into a theatre-like experience. Take it camping or bring it along to your hotel for a fun movie night experience. Movies can be streamed from a variety of different devices, including his phone, laptop and select gaming devices.

17. Travel Experiences

The travelers in our lives are all about “experiences” over “things.” So when we buy travel gifts for men we want to buy them experiences. Finding the right experience can be a challenge, though. That’s why we were so excited to discover Tinggly’s unique “experience” gift boxes. It’s a gift that lets the receiver choose the experience he covets most. Tinggly has boxes for travelers who like adventure, romance, self-care, food or culture.

We vote for the “bucket list” box. It lets the receiver choose from among 600+ travel experiences around the world — from surfing lessons in Santa Cruz, California, to a craft cocktail experience for two in New York City, to a hot air balloon ride over Cappadocia Turkey. So, essentially, you’re giving the experience-loving man in your life a travel gift he can customize to fit his next trip.
