Last Minute Electronic Gifts for the Travel Lover
Noise-canceling earbuds are an awesome last-minute gift for any traveler. These earbuds drown out background noise while at the same time enhancing the sound of your movie or music experience. As a side note, these also work great when talking to a friend or a colleague.Â
A Go Pro is an ideal gift for the adventure traveler because it is tough and waterproof. With smooth 4K video and vibrant WDR photos, every moment can look amazing. Also, GPS lets you track how fast, high, and far you went on your adventure. Â
The Microsoft Surface is a lightweight touchpad computer great for creating content on the go, streaming videos, staying on top of emails, and doing homework.  With 10-hour battery life, you will likely get tired before your Microsoft Surface. In addition, there are two HD cameras (front and rear-facing), allowing you to take and share crisp photos or take a business call.
If you are not in the market for a camera, you can still enhance your smartphone photos with the Zenvo lens kit. The two lenses included in this kit let you capture 45% more picture as well as more of the intricacies and details of the image. This is a unique gift for travelers.

Many of you might be thinking you don’t need a camera because everyone has a smartphone. And yes, smartphone technology is getting better. However, your pictures’ quality on a real camera versus those on most smartphones is far superior. A point and shoot camera takes excellent pictures, easily fits in your purse or pocket, and offers unique features to enhance your photos.
A travel adapter is a terrific last-minute gift for travelers because the adapters can be used around the world. Depending on the country you are traveling from/to, the electrical current may vary. So, a travel adapter will come in handy.  After ruining my hair straightener, I now travel with a reliable adapter.
Popular last-minute gifts for the travel lover include external battery packs. Travelers can never complain they can’t call because they forget to charge their phone when they have a battery pack. I have used a battery pack countless times on vacation, and I am always glad I have one with me. A battery pack is a small travel gift that every traveler needs!
A Kindle makes a terrific gift for the reader in your family. Let’s face it, books are heavy, and you can only take so many with you on vacation. But with a Kindle, the world’s library is your oyster. The Kindle is light, easy to use, gives you the ability to see text in any light, and can store far more books on my Kindle than I could ever dream of reading on vacation.  I love my Kindle Paperwhite.
Kindle E-Books and Audio-books
If you are buying a gift for an avid reader or lover of audio-books, consider signing up for Kindle Unlimited or Kindle Audible. They will have thousands of e-books or audio-books at their fingertips with just a few clicks of a button.Â
Unique Clothing and Accessory Gifts for the Travel Lover
The infinity scarf is the perfect travel gift for older travelers because not only is it stylish, but it also has pockets to securely keep your passport, phone, sunglasses, or wallet. The snap design lets you wear the scarf in several different ways, so you don’t look like you are wearing the same outfit in all of your pictures.
In this COVID era, health and safety are paramount. Tesalate has developed quick-drying exercise towels with patent-pending antibacterial technology to keep the Tesalate towel smelling fresh. The double-sided design allows you to keep track of which side has had contact with your body or gym equipment. Tesalate towels make a unique travel gift and can be used inside or outside, for traditional exercise, yoga, or tennis. And if you don’t love your towel, you can return it for free!Â
I took my Tesalate towel out with me for a workout and loved it! It’s light, easy to travel with, and makes for a terrific workout towel. Â
A comfortable pair of pants for traveling is essential. However, so many comfortable pants are not stylish. But, these pants are comfortable, stylish, and you can dress up any outfit.Â
