From the practical to the decadent, the Fodor’s gift guide has something for everyone on your holiday shopping list.
Every holiday season, our Fodor’s editors share their favorite product recommendations, pulling together a list of items—from the practical to the indulgent—that helped make the past year, and travels, that much better.
Some of the gift ideas below are, of course, travel-oriented, whether a sleek carry-on bag that relieves your shoulders of the added weight of a laptop or a collection of chic travel-themed books to remind you of your favorite destinations. Other gifts are about making the moments in between trips better, like a nifty gadget that delivers on the promise of reclaiming your attention from screens and social media. There are culinary-minded gifts, stylish presents, and even a new collection of Fodor’s-branded items for our most loyal readers.
So, whether you’re shopping for loved ones or treating yourself, here are 25 gift ideas (and things our team is loving) for the 2025 holiday season.
