Gifting Travel: The Most Memorable Gift You Can Give

Forget the sweaters and stuff—here’s why travel makes the best holiday gift for kids, spouses, parents, and friends.

🎁 This year, give them something they’ll never return—a vacation. Whether it’s a surprise weekend getaway, a future girls’ trip, or a family cruise with memories built-in, travel is the gift that just keeps giving.

Here’s why gifting travel is better than anything you’ll find on a store shelf—and how I can help you make it happen.

💡 WHY TRAVEL > STUFF

  • It lasts forever. No one remembers the sweater from 2016. But they do remember snorkeling in Aruba or seeing the Eiffel Tower sparkle.

  • Quality time > clutter. Travel means shared moments, not more things to dust.

  • It’s personal. You can tailor a trip to your loved one’s dream destination or interests.

🎁 HOW TO GIFT A TRIP (WITHOUT STRESS)

Not sure how to wrap a trip? I’ve got ideas!

  • Use a TravelJoy link (ask Marci for help with this!) or printable gift certificate to reveal the surprise.

  • Pair with a small gift: Guidebook, luggage tag, or cute passport holder

  • Let them choose the dates: I’ll help plan the trip when they’re ready

  • Add a special note: “We’re going to Greece!” or “Time for a spa weekend”

✨ TRIP GIFT IDEAS

  • For kids: Disney Cruise, theme park getaway, or snow adventure

  • For teens: Royal Caribbean or NCL Cruise, Xcaret resort getaway, or adventures in Costa Rica

  • For couples: Romantic resort, wine country escape, or spa weekend

  • For parents/grandparents: River cruise, escorted Europe trip, or family reunion

  • For friends: Girls’ trip to Charleston, Napa, or Cabo

  • For yourself: Yes, you’re allowed! Pre-book your own 2026 reset or retreat

🔥 HOLIDAY BONUS:

Book a 2026 trip as a gift by Dec. 15 and I’ll include a custom trip reveal card you can print or send digitally—perfect for under the tree or inside a stocking.
