Hot Gifts Adventure-Lovers Actually Want

How are you supposed to know what gift to buy for an adrenaline-junkie? Or a wanderlust soul who’s already got enough travel mugs and passport holder? Can’t give everyone universal adapters or neck pillows, can we?

If you’re looking for the best gifts for adventurer lovers or for things to give to your friends and family this year, you’re better off buying things that are meant to get them out there experiencing the world with things that they’ll enjoy for years to come and create memories that they will cherish even longer. After all, none of it is going to do you much good sitting in the closet or garage…

The VIOFO A119 V3, the Thinkware M1, and the Thinkware U1000 are perfect gifts for those who love to start every adventure with a vroom-vroom.

The VIOFO A119 V3 is the perfect little dash cam for those who spend long hours on the road, and have probably collected more than a few bumper stickers from their car rental journeys. It’s always nice to send them a gift that is functional, something that makes their trip easier and more enjoyable and most importantly, something that they can use on a variety of car rental excursions.

With a 140° wide viewing angle, the A119 V3 captures more of the open road, sunsets, city skylines and just about everything else along the way in 2K QHD. The A119 V3 comes with an adhesive mount, but an optional suction cup mount is available so they easily bring the dash cam with them from city to city, car to car, no tools required.

The Thinkware M1 is the ultimate must-have for all adrenaline junkies. This 1080p Full HD dual-channel dash cam is built for any type of weather conditions and terrain. An epic ride on the Dragon’s Tail? Bumpy desert on a dune buggy? Snowy mountains on a snowmobile? You bet, thanks to the rugged and weatherproof IP66-rated body. Advanced Electronic Image Stabilization ensures a smooth and steady video recording, making shaky footage due to bumpy roads and vibrations a thing of the past. Capture all the excitement of adventures or rushes in cinematic Full HD with the M1.
