After everything your dad has done for you in the past year (or, better yet, your whole life), it's important to recognize the special man that he is. Whatever your plans are to celebrate on the day itself, top it off with a fantastic, thoughtful gift.

If Pops is constantly planning his next trip, ignite his traveler’s spirit by choosing something he can put to use and take along on all of his adventures. Whether he’s a frequent flyer, an outdoorsman, a culture nut, or an adventurer at heart, there’s something on this list for every type of traveler (and budget).

If he is a tech geek, gift him a pair of amazing headphones for the plane. Does he travel for business on the regular? How about gifting the grandaddy of sleek carry-on suitcases? Or if dad enjoys a stiff drink, he will love an etched map rocks glass or the portable cocktail kit on this list — which is also great for camping or picnics!

Read on for the complete gift guide and everything you need to pick out a present this Father’s Day.
