Suitcase
What a better gift for someone who’s always on the move than a new suitcase? Every avid traveller would be pleased with a nice big suitcase that can fit all of their belongings and also has room for all the souvenirs from their adventures.

Tent or Sleeping Bag

After the tent a sleeping bag is the next thing required for ultimate comfort during camping. Every camper would love to receive a comfortable sleeping bag that would keep them warm at night and allow them to sleep comfortably away from the comfort of their house.
Map

You never know where your travels might take you, so every travel lover should have a map at hand in their campervan glovebox or in their bag. It can also be used as a nice memento to remember all their travels by colouring in the places they’ve been to or pinning pictures from their adventures.
Travel Cutlery
Every seasoned devotee of the camper life should have a set of essential cutlery for when they go camping. This includes fork, knife, spoon, plate and a drinking mug or cup. A good choice for travel cutlery is stainless steel or bamboo cutlery. Those are sustainable and can be used for a really long time but as well as that they’re also easy to clean and won’t break if dropped or get scratched or damaged.
Hiking Boots
If you know someone who’s always out and about on different adventures chances are they could benefit from a new pair of hiking boots. A pair of comfortable boots for walking is a fundamental necessity for every traveller.
Good hiking boots would last for years upon years and would allow your loved ones to go on many more adventures. From mountain treks to long walks amongst the country side, hiking boots are the ideal shoes for an active traveller.
Camping Voucher
What a better way to show your appreciation to someone with wanderlust than sending them on an adventure? Every person who loves travelling would appreciate a gift voucher to their favourite camping site, so they can hit the road with their motorhome or their tents and enjoy a few days of undisturbed peace and relaxation among nature.
You could also get a voucher for a camping site they’ve always wanted to visit or have on their bucket list. The memories and the chance to tick off a dream destination will be the most valuable gift you can get someone who enjoys adventuring.
Camera
