Our 2024 Guide to Great Gifts for Travelers


At Trekaroo if there is one thing we know, it is travel. We have been in this business for nearly two decades, and our travels have taken us around the world. Through this experience we have learned which products help us travel better as well as get us excited to keep traveling.

I put together this gift guide for travelers of all types, whether they be campers, jet setters, or fans of the carry-on only travel strategy.

Great Gifts for Travelers

Comfrt Travel Essentials Hoodie

great gifts for travelers include the Comfrt hoodie

Two things seem to be true every time I take a flight, especially a long flight- 1. I am always cold, and 2 I never seem to have enough pockets. So when the add popped up in my Instagram feed for the Comfrt Hoodie, I couldn’t resist clicking.

To be honest, I am skeptical of social media ads, but I did my research and discovered that this product had hundreds of five-star reviews, so I decided to purchase it for my long-haul flight from California to Switzerland this past summer.

The Comfrt Travel Essentials Hoodie is over-sized and has multiple pockets to store things like passports, cash, Airpods, and anything else I am worried about someone stealing. I like that the pockets have zippers and that there is a large mesh pocket inside the kangaroo pouch that is perfect for storing both my and my kids’ passports as we are getting through customs.

The hoodie itself is quite heavy yet soft, so I felt comfortable for the duration of my flight. I also appreciated the oversized hood that I put on when I was trying to get some rest on the flight.

I also found the hoodie to be useful when we were at high elevations in the Alps and things got chilly. I could keep our SwissPasses, gondola tickets, and my phone all in one secure place while we hiked, ziplined, and cruised down alpine slides without worry of anything falling out.

Buzz Foldable Centris Electric Bike

We love to have our e-bikes with us when we take road trips but some e-bikes take up more space than others. That is why I fell in love with the foldable Centris E-bike by Buzz.

Because this bike folds down to 34”L x 22”H x 34”D, it is easy to just throw a couple bikes in the back of our car and head down to the beach for an afternoon of cruising. We have also put them in the back of our camper van so we can cruise around our campsites, national parks, or anywhere else the road takes us.

Deal Alert: For the holiday season, Buzz has dropped the prices on ALL e-bikes $300. For Black Friday week, they are offering an ADDITIONAL $200 off with code BLKFRIDAY200.  The sale runs Monday, November 25, through the end of Black Friday, November 29.

HercLeon Laundry-Free Socks and Tees

This shirt doesn't need washing!This shirt doesn't need washing!

Shirts and socks that can be worn multiple times without washing? I know, it sounds weird and believe me, I was very skeptical when I was sent these to try, but I am happy to share that these products really do work!

Now I am not advocating for never washing your clothes but sometimes when we are camping or backpacking and space is precious, having items that can be reused without stinking to high heaven is really nice!

HercLéon’s clothing uses anti-bacterial fibers to kill the bacteria that cause odor. The HercShirt 3.0 is made from a blend of beechwood, copper, spandex, and other materials and is said to be able to go 100 days without washing. I wasn’t willing to go that far but I did wear it multiple times without washing and it never got stinky or gross.

The HercSocks are light, stretchy, and fight odor. They are thin so I suggest wearing them as a barrier layer if you are going to go on long hikes. They do dry quickly if they get wet which is really nice. I wore these socks over a dozen fine and they still held up to the sniff test!

Deal Alert: The HercLéon website is currently having a “buy more, save more” sale where you can save up to 25%!

Foldie Backpack

As I mentioned, I’m a carry-on traveler, so efficiency is important to me. I also like to have a backpack that I can use to take for the day’s adventures, without having to unpack my carry-on backpack so I was very excited when I discovered the Foldie Backpack.

Foldie is already well-known for its travel bags, but my bag is much happier with a backpack than a shoulder purse, so this new product is right up my alley.

The backpack has 32L of storage, plus plenty of pockets, a laptop sleeve, and attaches to a rolling suitcase with ease. Best of all, it easily fold down into itself and takes up only a little bit of space. Its folded dimensions are just 10.2 inches height x 10.2 inches length x 2.75 inches width.

BAGSMART Travel Jewelry Organizer Case Foldable Jewelry Roll

I like to travel with inexpensive jewelry because it can dress up an outfit for evening meals or more special occasions. I have found that just putting my jewelry in my toiletry case is a bad idea because it just gets all tangled up.

I was happy to find this inexpensive solution on Amazon. Since I am typically a carry-on only gal, the compact dimensions of 5.51″ L x 6.10″ W x 0.98″ H and lightweight materials are a welcome addition to my suitcase. There are several little spots to put jewelry like the long buckled band for rings, an earrings panel, a necklace buckled strap, a zip pouch, and a long zip pocket.

Deal Alert: BAGSMART is currently having a Black Friday deal on Amazon where you can save 20% off your purchase.

BAGSMART Toiletry Bag

Another BAGSMART product that I can’t live without is their medium-sized toiletry bag. I love that it has plenty of room for all my toiletries and cosmetics, is water resistant, has a hook to hang on a towel bar and save precious counter space, and folds up nicely to just 10.8’‘L x 3.5″W x 7.9H.

There are elastic straps in a couple of pouches to hold bottles upright and secure. Plus, it comes in a variety of colors, so my daughter and I can share the same space without having to wonder which bag belongs to whom.

Deal Art: Amazon currently has select colors of these toiletry bags on sale for 26% off!

LAISHEN Wide Leg Jumpsuits

When it comes to packing for travel, I am all about efficiency. I love an outfit that doesn’t wrinkle easily, can be dressed up or down, and doesn’t take up much space. I have fallen in love with these jumpsuits on Amazon for these reasons. I especially love the black, wide-leg jumpsuit because it looks like a dress but is more practical for a variety of adventures.

And because when I find a good thing, I keep coming back for more, I also have both the blue and green floral options! I am tall (5’10”), and these fit me well, but they can also comfortably fit average-height women. Best of all- they have pockets! Score!

Eurosoft Sandals

I have been on the lookout for great sandals for travel for years. I needed something that I could walk around in all day without getting blisters, offered support for walking on the cobblestone streets of Europe, was stylish, and went well with casual outfits as well dresses or jumpsuits in the evening.

I finally found what I was looking for in the Eurosoft by Sofft Women’s Gianetta Sandal which I purchased on Amazon. These sandals are cute and very comfortable. I like that they have an adjustable strap that uses Velcro without a design that makes me look like an old lady. I wore these and walked over 10 miles a day without issue! I now have these sandals in both black and tan.

EARPEACE SLEEP Earplugs

Have you ever shared a hotel room with someone who kept you up all night with their snoring? I am a light sleeper so sharing a room with a snorer is a recipe for no sleep. Airplanes can also be very noisy and if you have chatty neighbors, your chances of sleep are little.

EARPEACE SLEEP reduces sound up to 30db and comes with six reusable contour earplugs and filters for just $19.95. They also have small sizes for kids, earplugs for concerts, and earplugs for loud sporting events.

The Omnia Camping Oven

Does the idea of fresh baked goods sound like an amazing addition to your camping experience? We have a grill that we use to do most of our cooking but baked bread and cakes while camping is a new novelty I recently discovered and don’t want to give up!

The Omnia is a portable oven that uses the heat of a campfire, grill or stovetop. It’s easy to use, lightweight, takes up just a little space. The design allows for hot air to travel up the sides, moving through the holes to the lid, where the heat reflects down on the food.

There are also a number of optional accessories for your Omnia such as the custom-fit muffin ring and the perforated baking tray for crispy French fries.
