Father’s Day gift guide for the Travel Dad

If your dad has a strong case of wanderlust, these gifts are the perfect things to enhance his globe-trotting adventures save buying a boat.

Aukey 3-in-1 Clip-on Cell Phone Camera Lens Kit

Aukey clip-on lenses are the perfect gift for the dad who wants to take super high-quality snaps of the world’s wonders without sacrificing the portability of a smartphone. The 3-in-1 set comes with a fisheye lens, wide angle lens and macro lens that’ll work with phone models across Apple and Android by simply attaching it over top of the camera. The best part? The kit’s surprisingly cheap, starting at $17.99.

Pricing: $17.99

Narrative Clip 2

While some dads who travel are all about photography, others forget to take a single picture on their adventures. What better gift for those dads than the narrative clip? The clip is an inconspicuous wearable camera that automatically takes an 8 megapixel photo every 30 seconds and takes 1080p video when double tapped. It can then store up to 4,000 of those photos, or 80 minutes of video, which is a surprising amount of storage for so small a travel companion.

Pricing: $199

Roam Mobility

One of the first things that crosses any traveler’s mind when they’re planning a trip is cell service. Do you get a travel pack, use your roaming program, grab a SIM card where you’re headed?

This present won’t break the bank, either, with 2GB of U.S. data for a month at the price of only $30.

Pricing: $30 for 3GB of U.S. data lasting 30 days, $60 for 5GB of U.S. data lasting 30 days and a variety of other options.
