Great Holiday Gifts for Female Travelers

Tep Wireless Pocket WiFi

Portable WiFi is a must-have for international travel. That’s why the Tep Wireless ‘Teppy’ Pocket WiFi makes a great stocking stuffer. It provides access to reliable internet in over 100 countries! That means you don’t need to worry about switching SIM cards or accumulating ridiculous roaming charges!

When turned on, the Teppy creates a WiFi hotspot by connecting to the best telecom operator in your destination. This is basically a secure, private network just for you. With the password, you can connect your phone, laptop, computer, or another WiFi-enabled device. You can connect up to five devices at a time. When fully charged, the battery lasts at least 6 hours. For me, it typically lasts 9 hours because I turn off the device when I‘m not using it.

Tep Wireless also provides a security feature for solo travelers. It’s called Kitestring, and it was created to assist travelers in the case of an emergency. The Kitestring app allows you to set up regular check-ins based on the frequency you’d like. At a time you choose, Kitestring will send you a text message. If you don’t respond, the app will send an alert to your emergency contacts. Just one more way Tep Wireless provides you peace of mind during your travels. Read my complete review of Tep Wireless to learn more about the features, pros, and cons.

Nikon D3400 Camera

The Nikon D3400 is the perfect DSLR for those who are new to photography. The best thing about this camera, other than the professional-quality photos, is that it’s so simple to use. You can start with the auto mode that automatically adjusts the settings for you. As you learn more about shutter speed and aperture, you can start using the manual mode like the pros.

The Nikon D3400 is also small and lightweight, making it easy to fit in your carry-on bag. It comes with two lenses – a long and a short one. That way, you can capture images from different distances.

Gatta Camera Bag

Let’s face it: most camera bags you’ll find at Best Buy and other retailers are kind of blah. They tend to come in one color, black, and are often bulky. If you don’t want a camera bag that screams ‘camera bag!’ then the Gatta bag is a great alternative. This shoulder bag is spacious and looks like something you would carry for a night out with your girlfriends. When traveling, you don’t need to bring a separate purse to store your wallet and phone in addition to your camera bag. This fine leather purse serves both purposes, making packing just a little bit easier. It comes in two colors: Lola Miel (brown) and Lola Noir (black).

Adobe Lightroom Classic

After taking tons of fabulous pictures, you can spruce them up with the Lightroom app. Lightroom is the number one photo editing app that travel bloggers use. Forget Photoshop, which has a bunch of complex features. Lightroom’s user interface is simpler and more intuitive to use. The great thing about this app is that you can edit hundreds of photos at once. You can apply a preset, a pre-made combination of photo settings, to all your photos. Then, if you’d like you can look at photos individually and soften your skin, increase the saturation, blur the background, and virtually anything you can think of. For more advanced photographers, you can also purchase the Adobe Creative Cloud Photography plan. It comes with Lightroom, Photoshop, and a 1 TB storage plan.

Sony Noise Cancelling Headphones

At 30,000 feet, the sound of the airplane’s engine and noise in the cabin can drown out your music. These Sony Noise Canceling headphones eliminate cabin noise so you can hear your music. I used Beats headphones prior to these, and they weren’t that great. The engine noise was overpowering so I could barely hear any music.

With the Sony Noise Canceling Headphones, that problem no longer exists. Sony developed a technology to eliminate any noise in the environment so that all you hear is the sound coming from the headphones. You can listen to music and watch movies on flights without the need to crank up the volume. These headphones are a must for travelers who listen to music a lot.

Cabin Zero 36L Backpack

Cabin Zero is a British luggage brand that specializes in cabin-sized, lightweight luggage for travelers. Their 36 L carry-on backpack is my go-to travel bag. It’s a medium-sized backpack with enough space to accommodate everything you need for a month on the road.

With padded shoulder pads and a cushioned back panel, this backpack is also really comfortable. It makes even the heaviest load feel light due to its sturdy structure that distributes the weight evenly on your shoulders. Another great feature of this backpack is that with a tracker that you can use to trace your backpack in the in case it gets lost. Check out my complete review of the backpack to learn about the pros and cons.

Airbnb Gift Card

Airbnb offers a wide selection of homes and apartments around the world, from treehouses to mansions. They’re usually cheaper than hotels and more comfortable than hostels. That’s why an Airbnb gift card would make a perfect gift for a female traveler. You can purchase one on Amazon and have it emailed directly to the recipient.

The procedure to purchase the gift card is simple. First, you have to choose an amount to put on the card – $25, $50, $75, $100, or a custom amount. Then you enter the recipient’s email address, write a message and choose a delivery date. For instance, you could choose for the gift card to be delivered on Christmas Day.

Estee Lauder Blockbuster Collection

Looking for the best luxury travel gifts for your traveling friends? It’s hard to beat the quality of Estee Lauder’s luxurious makeup. With the Estee Lauder Blockbuster Collection, you can get your travel makeup essentials all in one place. This includes lipsticks, eyeshadow palettes, blush, bronzer, makeup remover, and more. The makeup is packaged in a luxurious red bag that you can easily slide into your carry-on. When you go through security, it will be a breeze to take out the liquids. Any female traveler who loves makeup will surely love this collection!

Etekcity Digital Hanging Luggage Scale

There’s a much easier way to weigh your check-in luggage besides putting it on a scale or waiting to get to the check-in counter. This Digital Hanging Scale by Etekcity is the smarter choice. It’s very easy to use. Simply attach the handle of your backpack or suitcase to the hook of the scale. Then it will give you an accurate reading in seconds.

The Nike Air is the perfect pair of tennis shoes for the active traveler. Whether you’re sprinting through an airport or hiking up a rainforest, these shoes provide incredible support and comfort. Their versatility makes them a great addition to any women’s travel wardrobe. This particular version of the Air is really lightweight and is built with a shock-absorbing sole.
