My idea of the ideal traveler gift remains as always: something that (1) focuses on travel and (2) is an extravagance that you’re sure the traveler would enjoy but is not apt to arrange for him/herself. Giving something a traveler has already asked for is easy; just buy it. Other travel gifting isn’t as easy, because so much travel is tied to specific times.
If you can gift a trip with specific dates, start shopping: My inbox is full of “Black Friday” deal promotions on sale for another week or so. Tours, flights, hotels, restaurants, you name it: Just start searching for a destination you know your traveler would like or call a travel agent.
