Welcome to our gift guide for campers and travel lovers. Ok, so it hasn’t been the best of years for travelling. Oh let’s be honest – it couldn’t have been any worse 🙁 We managed just 3 days in Kent and 5 days in the Outer Hebrides. But we MUST keep positive – 2021 will hopefully see things start to return to some kind of normal. It might not be advised to book trips, but it shouldn’t stop us planning!
PackThePJs has scoured the internet (as we can’t go shopping) to find what we think are the best gifts for the wanderlusters in your lives this Christmas. Enjoy x

Adventure Print from Ink&Drop
This is a beautiful bold typography print from ink&drop to brighten up your desk or office. Everyone loves ADVENTURE and this poster print highlights that. Positive and bright prints like this transform a room, and will get you reminiscing of past trips. Or maybe it will give you some inspiration for future travels! Available in Matt and Gloss finishes and in a variety of sizes.
RRP: £13.00
Bird Multi-Tool from Kikkerland
This is beautifully designed 6-in-1 multi-tool, perfect for campers and cyclists alike. The helpful birdy’s beak is a stainless steel Philips head screwdriver; its plumage is durable Beechwood, and her 3mm and 2mm Allen key feet and 6mm, 5mm and 4mm tail feathers are always at your service. It looks so cool too!
RRP: £9.65
Tesalate Antibacterial Workout Towel
PackThePJs are massive fans of Tesalate towels. They are perfect for campers as they dry quickly and are lightweight (so great to travel long-haul with too). Their latest addition to the range are these antibacterial workout towels – just the right size (100 x 45cm) to take to the gym, or put in your backpack if you are hiking. And of course it provides a universal drying option for campers, who have to limit how much they can take away with them! The pattern of this workout towel is Ray of Sunshine x
RRP: £29.00
Personalised Aluminium Water Bottle
I love this 500ml metal water bottle from Always Personal! Your name of choice is engraved in a block style lettering on the top of the bamboo stopper. Perfect for travelling, camping, days out – school or work … it is in the style of a vintage milk bottle. Choose between green, black or white.
RRP: £16.95
Snugpak Travel Pillow
This cosy snuggy headrest from Snugpak is principally intended for use with sleeping bags, but any time you want a restful pause you will find it is a practical cushion that conveniently packs away into its own integral stuff sack. A brilliant carry-on tool for long-haul flights too. Relax on those long journeys in comfort as the Snuggy Headrest provides an amazing amount of support for the head and neck. The snuggy uses the same high-quality insulation and fabrics as Snugpak sleeping bags themselves.
RRP: £6.95
Personalised Postcode Map Print
This personalised printed postcode map from Maps International is printed on silk art paper and can be centred on any postcode, a great way to create a custom map of a memorable location in the UK. You choose the centre location by postcode – this could be your home, a friend’s home or maybe a favourite area. Not only can you centre the map on your postcode, but you can also personalise the map by choosing a border colour and title and/or subtitles.
RRP: £22.00
Zippo Heatbank Hand Warmer
This is a great multipurpose gadget for campers and all travel lovers. Zippo’s Heatbank Hand Warmer has a slim design, being under 5 inches tall & weighing 5.5 oz. You don’t need lighter fluid … this hand warmer has a charging cable for easy recharging. It gives dual-sided heat up to 50°C with six adjustable heat settings. But it’s more than just a hand warmer. It is also a 5200 mah lithium-ion battery power bank, so you can charge your devices like mobile phones and tablets while out and about. When charging a mobile device, the heat functions are disabled to prevent overheating. This product comes with a 2-year warranty.
RRP: £39.95
Nighttime Campsite Vibes, Simplified
One of the best parts of camping is sitting around under the stars – but navigating in the dark? Not so much. Whether you’re heading to the toilet block at midnight or trying to identify rustling in the bushes (fox or flapjack thief?), having reliable night vision gear makes a world of difference. For those who love being prepared, DNT Zulus Night Vision Scopes are a game changer. Compact and easy to pack, they offer clear visibility in low-light conditions and make nighttime exploring feel like a high-tech adventure rather than a hazard. Add one to your kit and keep the good vibes going, even after the sun sets.

Oh the fun we’ve already had with this map! Our plan is to tour regions and photograph the name signs of all the silly places listed! Perfect for map lovers, adventurers and, well, anyone! Britain’s funny, rude and delightfully odd place names, from the Twatts of northern Scotland to the Bottoms of England, via the fabled Pants of Wales, are not only bewildering, but also truly world-class.

RRP: £14.99
Buzz Toys’ Air Spinner
I have placed this toy within the travel gift guide, because our one lived in our caravan and whenever we pitched in an empty campsite, we’d fill it and play with it outside. As a frisbee is flies a long way, hence playing in empty campsite fields! The UK Air Spinner is a giant floppy outdoor frisbee. Fill the inflatable with air or even helium to enable it to bounce. A toy with many uses – great when camping and being short of space.
RRP: £8.00
Ivy Lights from Kikkerland
We used our set of ivy-inspired string lights from Kikkerland in our caravan awning (past tense as we don’t have a caravan anymore – children outgrew the bunkbeds). Powered via USB, this set totals 10 feet of remote-controlled string lights. They feature eight animation settings. Batteries are included.
RRP: £15.00
