Finding the perfect gift is sometimes not that easy. Many recipients don’t really want or „need“ an item. I’m a huge fan of experience gifts! Because that’s exactly when experience gifts come in handy. There are countless ways to tailor the gift perfectly to the recipient and give the gift of time together and a special little adventure. Giving the gift of experiences and trips instead of material things is becoming increasingly popular. It allows us to share unforgettable moments and create lasting memories. If you’re looking for special gift ideas for your loved ones, we’ve put together 25 unique suggestions for friends, husbands, parents and other important people in your life.

Hot air balloon flight:
Give your loved one an unforgettable ride in a hot air balloon as you float over scenic landscapes and enjoy the sunrise or sunset. You can often book this directly in the area or combine it with an excursion or plan it as an addition to an already planned trip.
Cooking class for gourmet lovers:
Spend a day together in a cooking school and learn from professionals how to prepare delicious dishes. Together you can discover new flavors and inspire each other. I think that is just a lovely gift idea!
To find a suitable cooking course, you can either search online for a suitable offer or enquire directly at a restaurant that offers this. I personally find a sushi cooking course or an Italian cooking course the best!
Wine tasting at a vineyard:
Immerse yourself in the world of wine and enjoy a private wine tasting at an idyllic winery. Learn more about the different grape varieties, aromas and winemaking techniques.
Other wine-related gift ideas also offer great opportunities to make your boyfriend happy. If you have a smaller budget, you can also simply put together a great picnic yourself with your own wine tasting and different wines.
Wellness weekend:
Escape the stress of everyday life and pamper yourself with a wellness weekend in a luxurious spa. Enjoy massages, steam baths and relax with facial treatments.
Here, too, there are lots of great ways to give your boyfriend or girlfriend a great and special treat. Whether it’s a complete weekend in a great hotel or a day trip to a beautiful spa.
Paragliding
Fulfill your dream of flying and experience the indescribable feeling of paragliding together. Enjoy the freedom and the breathtaking view from above. If your recipient is particularly adventurous and loves action, then this is definitely a great gift idea.
Photography-Workshop
Discover the world of photography together and improve your skills at a professional photography workshop. Learn how to get the best out of every shot and take unforgettable pictures. There are even special travel photography tours which make a really special gift for adventurous couples.
Concert or theater tickets
Is there a particular concert or musical that the recipient has always wanted to see? Then this is a wonderful gift idea! It makes the most sense to know their preferences and then choose a suitable event.
A day at the theme park:
Spend an action-packed day full of fun and adventure at an amusement park. Ride rollercoasters, enjoy shows and experience unforgettable moments together. I have written a detailed article about my favorite amusement park here. If that sounds interesting to you, take a look.
Romantic candlelight dinner:
Looking for a romantic gift for your partner? Surprise your partner with a romantic candlelit dinner in an exquisite restaurant. Enjoy the intimate atmosphere and have a lovely evening together!
Escape-Room-Adventure
Put your puzzle-solving skills to the test and solve tricky tasks together in an escape room. Work together as a team to unravel the mystery and escape the room. I think this gift is great for siblings or friends. Simply a great team experience!
Mini Road Trip
If you love camper trips as much as we do, then this is a great gift idea. Going on a weekend trip with the camper, even if it’s not that far away, is a great gift idea.
Weekend in a Mountain Cabin:
Escape the hustle and bustle of the city and spend a romantic weekend in a cozy mountain cabin. Enjoy the tranquillity of nature and explore the surrounding hiking trails.
