Out of town guest gift basket ideas?

Published by admin on September 2, 2008

I live in Las Vegas and I have several guests traveling from Florida. In addition to the travel time, there is a significant time zone and weather difference.

On top of the normal gift basket items (the fun stuff), I would like to incorporate some items that will make their stay in the desert more comfortable. Things they may not even have expected they would need.

I will definently include lotion and chapstick. What are some other items that are important when traveling a long distance and to a place like Las Vegas.
I want to select items that are appropriate as a wedding gift basket though. I don't want it to just look like the dollar travel section at Target.

How thoughtful of you!

I'd say anything to make their stay comfortable. If they are all at hotels, they could use things to snack on and drink and a regional choice for both would be really nice.
Also, a packet of restaurant/things to do recommendations (with directions!) would be an asset, since they won't know your area, and you will be too busy to tell them in person.
If they have kids, put in some coloring books and crayons/a cute little plush 'travel buddy'….the parents will appreciate having some things to keep their little ones busy!
