Gift ideas for travellers and book lovers

Here at Bradt we might be best known for our comprehensive destination guides, but that’s not all we publish. We also have dozens of travel literature titles, wildlife books and activity books too!

There’s bound to be a book here for the traveller in your life, but if not – we also offer gift cards (redeemable against all our products), gift memberships to our Travel Club, exclusive Bradt travel journals and stylish tote bags.

The last posting dates for Christmas 2024 have now passed. But Bradt Guides make lovely gifts all year round! Our office reopens on 2nd January.

Travel journals and tote bags

This new hardback travel journal (A5 size) celebrates the birth of Bradt Guides. Its distinctive yellow cover is a facsimile of the first ever Bradt guide, Backpacking Along Ancient Ways in Peru and Bolivia, published in 1974 after Hilary and George Bradt discovered hiking trails through the Andes.

Bradt notebook #2

This new hardback travel journal (A5 size) evokes the early days of Bradt Guides. Its iconic yellow cover is reminiscent of the first ever Bradt guide to Africa, published in 1977 and covering 17 hikes through 15 countries. Hilary and George Bradt described Backpacker’s Africa: 17 walks off the Cape to Cairo Route as ‘the first book taking you on a walking tour of Africa’.
