8 Tech-Savvy Travel Gadgets You Should Know

Working in the travel industry, I’m always amazed by the gizmos and gadgets travelers carry with them to enhance their travel experiences. I thought it would be fun to share with you 8 cool tech-savvy travel gadgets I’ve seen or enjoy myself (even though they might not be new to you). Check them out below, and you might just be inspired as to what to give the traveler in your life for a birthday, holiday, or some other special occasion!

  1. The Soundbender - This little gizmo connects to your phone or tablet and amplifies the volume up to 5X. Not bad for a product under $5, just please don’t use it on your next flight!

  2. Zoom lenses for your smartphone - Um, what? Yep! You can get zoom lenses and a tripod for your smartphone to take your travel photos to the next level.

  3. Noise-Canceling Headphones - Okay, these are far from new, but one of my favorites, especially on those long overseas flights. I need to tune out all the different sounds so I can sleep to ensure I'm refreshed and ready to hit the ground running when I arrive. Also, noise-canceling headphones have gotten much nicer in recent years. You used to have to spend a lot of money for a decent pair, but now there are good ones for under $100! Read the reviews before purchasing though. You don’t want to get a lemon!

  4. Universal (All-in-One) Plug Adapter - There are a plethora of these on the market now, and they are a wonderful invention. There’s nothing worse than not being able to use your plugged devices because even though you brought an adapter to Italy, the part of Italy you’re in uses a different outlet than everyone else! Yes, this can happen!

  5. Weatherproof/Waterproof Phone Case - There are cases you can get for your smartphone that will protect it from the elements. This would be wonderful if you’re going to be on a boat where some splashing may happen or get stuck in a rainstorm. Use caution with cases that claim you can submerge them in water, however. Again, read all reviews and product instructions, and use them at your own discretion.

  6. Multi-Port USB Wall Charger - I’ve seen wall chargers with up to 4 USB ports. This is great for all the devices you’ll want to keep charged up while traveling.

  7. Portable Solar-Powered Phone Charger - These are just too cool not to share. There are portable solar-powered phone chargers available that actually can charge a smartphone completely after a day in the sun. This is great for those camping trips where you won’t have access to electricity.

  8. Fitbit (or similar devices) - I love that these devices can tell you how much walking you’ve done, your heart rate, and even how well you’re sleeping at night. And, it doesn’t hurt that they tell you how many calories you’re burning so you can justify having that extra dessert at dinner!

Destinations HD has a cool travel gadget too! We offer a Mobile Travel App that is customized just for you! This is where you will find all your travel details, confirmations, requirements, contact info, travel tips/advice, recommendations, & so much more.
