Whether you need a couple extra travel-themed stocking stuffers, funny travel survival kit gifts, funny travel games or funny group travel shirts, these 20 funny travel gifts all under $25 will absolutely crack you — and your favorite traveler — up.
1. Funny Travel Gift T-Shirts
First, destination merchandise screams tourist.
But, funny travel gift t-shirts, like this “Alpaca My Bags” tee or this hilarious “We Be Trippin'” tee, declare dedicated adventurer.
Furthermore, a great aspect of gifting t-shirts is that they can always be repurposed as pajama or workout shirts if your giftee isn’t quite hysterical enough to brave them in public.
2. ‘RV There Yet?’ Funny Travel Journal
Similarly, not only does the witty humor of this “RV There Yet” travel journal make it one of the funniest travel gifts, but the writing prompt section makes it completely practical for seasoned travel writers, hobby journalists and even those who claim to hate journaling.
3. Book Of Unusual Knowledge
A universal trait among travelers is that we all love to learn — even if said learning entails useless information.
The Book Of Unusual Knowledge is an affordable, hilarious gag gift that would be perfect for any traveler.
Pair it with The Book Of Extraordinary Facts and/or The Book Of Useless Information for an entire series of global trivia reads.
4. Funny Travel Mug
Like t-shirts, mugs will always be used, no matter how much laughter or chaotic energy the mug delivers.
I personally adore my Como Te Llamas travel mug, and I know other travelers will too.
If you don’t already get it, the saying on the mug is a comical Spanish pun that reads “what is your name?” with llamas. (If you don’t get it, trust me, your Spanish-speaking traveler will find it hilarious.)
5. Travel Size Poo-Pourri
Next, I hate to admit it, but this travel-size Poo-Pourri definitely comes in handy when travelers are sharing a hotel room.
Plus, it will certainly inspire a chuckle or two when unwrapped. This funny travel gift idea is 100% a-poo-ved by me.
6. Burrito Blanket
Moreover, this burrito blanket or this pizza blanket will keep your traveler cozy on every starkly air-conditioned plane, car, train, hotel room or breezy camping tent.
Talk about a new take on comfort food, am I right?
This iconic blanket comes in a burrito/tortilla pattern, pizza pattern, waffle pattern, pie pattern and more.
7. Croissant Shaped Neck Pillow
Likewise, combine the aforementioned burrito blanket gift with this croissant shaped neck pillow for maximum giggles, conversation starters, physical comfort and, quite possibly, hunger.
Note, this neck pillow also comes in shrimp and chili pepper shapes too, in case your traveler is a French pastry fiend.
8. Funny Travel Cosmetics Bag
While we’re discussing these funny takes on basic travel essentials, let’s talk about this funny travel cosmetics bag that sarcastically reads, “Might be makeup. Might be snacks.”
As a full-time traveler, I’ve noticed that travel cosmetics bags tend to get really dirty over the year and need to be replaced relatively often. That’s why I know cosmetic bags make great practical funny travel gifts.
9. Car Trash Can
Have you ever been inside a traveler’s car right after one of their trips? If not, consider yourself lucky.
If you have, you know why this car trash can makes an appearance on this practical yet funny travel gift guide.
My husband and I have this exact car trash can, and I must admit that it has been a cleanliness game changer for our frequent road trips. It attaches right to the back of any headrest for easy accessibility and to maximize crammed car space.
10. Collapsible Female Urination Device
This funny travel gift is for the female travelers in your life.
Sometimes, nature calls while she’s in nature. Sometimes, nature calls where the toilets are so grimy that the thought of sitting or even hovering makes her gag.
Luckily, this collapsible standing urination device for women removes both of these problems and inspires a hard laugh! (Don’t worry, it comes with a travel bag to keep her other belongings clean.)
11. Travel Bidet
On the same note, while toilet paper is (hopefully) a regular household item in your home country, it’s a luxury in other countries.
With this hilarious travel bidet, there’s no more need for leaf wiping or air drying. Plus, it’s a lot more sustainable than toilet paper or flushable wipes.
12. Public Toilet Survival Kit
In addition, this public toilet survival kit is for the traveler that, well, doesn’t have the travel bidet or collapsible urination device on hand.
Have you seen some of those airport bathrooms?
There will definitely come a time where your traveler needs the seat cover, antiseptic wipes and latex-free disposable gloves that this funny travel survival kit gift comes with.
13. Instant Underwear
Bathroom issues aside, sometimes travelers need an extra pair of underwear.
Perhaps, their clothes got soaked in a rain storm. Or, maybe they did have bathroom issues. Either way, this pair of emergency instant underpants is certainly a cackle-worthy travel gift.
14. Airplane Footrest
Now travelers can truly kick back (pun intended), relax and enjoy the flight. Thank you, airplane footrest!
Practically speaking, this Amazon basics footrest will help reduce flight-induced elevation swelling and leg cramping.
15. Funny Luggage Tags
These funny travel gift luggage tags are self-explanatory, literally.
Help your favorite travelers quickly identify their own suitcases at baggage claim with these hysterical luggage tags.
Who knows, maybe you’ll prevent baggage theft, too.
16. LED Beanie
Although humorous at first glance, any traveler, adventurer or camping enthusiast would agree that this LED beanie would be one of the most useful items on this funny travel gift list.
And, it’s available in numerous colors to suit all your travelers’ style preferences.
17. LED Gloves (Funny Travel Gifts)
Similarly, although these LED gloves look like something extraterrestrial, they would be completely practical for those same travelers and adventurers who would like the previously mentioned LED beanie.
Pair the LED beanie and gloves together for the ultimate practical, funny travel gift set!
18. Inverted Windproof Umbrella
Additionally, windproof umbrellas are 100% practical for every traveler. After all, no one likes a floppy umbrella that breaks from wind.
Apart from their naturally awkward appearances, this windproof umbrella in particular depicts ironically sunny skies overhead, which is actually pretty funny.
19. Universal Phone Stand And Necklace
Travelers can use this bendable phone holder as a hotel phone stand, or, better yet, they can hang this puppy around their necks to watch a movie in-flight without uncomfortably holding their arms up or looking down into their laps.
My sisters, husband and I all have one, and even though it’s probably pretty comical to see from a stranger’s point of view, it’s actually really handy!
20. Airplane Phone Mount (Funny Travel Gifts)
Last, but certainly not least, if your traveling giftee isn’t outrageous enough to sport the hands-free phone necklace from above, they’ll love this bestselling pocket-size airplane phone mount.
As extra as it may seem, other passengers will be downright jealous when they find out their seat-back doesn’t have a built-in TV screen.
Plus, it makes a fabulous travel stocking stuffer! Even I was excited to receive it in my stocking last year.
