- Many students take the opportunity to travel in the months immediately following graduation.
- The big post-grad trip is likely the last chance they’ll have to travel for more than a few days at a time, so help them make the most of their vacation with these 20 travel-related graduation gifts.
- These items will be useful for all their future travels as well, not just their celebratory graduation trip.
With new jobs, grad school, and other post-grad opportunities on the horizon, members of the Class of 2019 have another pressing concern on their minds: traveling the world, with their best college friends in tow.
For many, the months after graduation are one of the few times of their life when they’ll be able to travel for weeks on end uninterrupted, before company vacation policies and conflicting school breaks get in the way.
Planning a trip as big as this is not an easy undertaking. If you’re gifting a new grad in your life, your contribution to their trip of a lifetime — whether in the form of an Airbnb gift card, a shiny new suitcase, or a luxurious toiletry bag — won’t go unappreciated.
Check out 20 travel-related gifts for your grad, whether they’re leaving for a week or three months.
