The Perfect Holiday Gift for your Travel Enthusiast

I am usually very prepared for Christmas and have all my shopping done by end of November.  However, there is always one or two people that I struggle with finding the perfect gift. My younger brother is normally one of those. He has recently caught the travel bug and always he keeps suggesting we take a trip together instead of gifts. 

​If you have a travel enthusiast in your family, the gift of travel is certainly better than anything you can buy on the shelf. However, how do you determine if this choice is right for your loved one(s) this holiday season?  Here are a few simple tips that may help you decide how to go about sending someone a vacation as a present...

  1. Don't assume you know where they want to go! Just because you thought Hawaii was amazing doesn't mean that everyone wants to go to Hawaii. Shocking I know, but it's true!

  2. Decide early on if you're paying for the whole trip, or just a portion of it. While a vacation is a nice gesture, it's no secret they can be expensive. If you're only purchasing a portion, you'll want to make sure you are buying a certificate that can be used for any destination. For example, Walmart may sell Southwest Airlines or Delta gift cards, but the problem with these types of gifts is they lock the recipient into an airline that they either may not like, or may not be able to use to visit their dream destination.

  3. Refrain from choosing their travel dates. Unfortunately, we don't always know someone's work schedule or their restrictions for taking leave from work. Open-ended travel dates are much better for gifts.

  4. Consider the time they will be traveling. Some trips are more or less expensive depending on the time of year you go. Then again, there is often a reason for slow seasons of travel, so do your research ahead of time.

  5. Work with a reputable travel agent like Destinations HD for the best results. Purchasing a gift certificate through Destinations HD will help you give the amazing gift of travel without locking your recipient into anything they don't want. By purchasing with us, we can apply your gift to any trip your recipient may want to go on.
