Family is the most important thing in life and Father’s Day is a great time to show your dad some appreciation for everything they’ve ever done for you.
Coming up with a good present can be a bit tricky, especially if he already has everything he needs.
So, a good alternative to a physical presence can be an experience gift – it’s a way to treat your father with a fun or adventurous activity! Here are 5 experience gifts ideas to surprise him with.
A Relaxing Getaway
Booking your dad a relaxing getaway is one of the most perfect ways to spoil him and show him just how much he means to you.
The destination you choose will, of course, depend on your budget. You may book him a cosy cabin for the weekend somewhere locally or a family holiday somewhere exotic.
The Canary Islands, for instance, is an amazing destination for a relaxing getaway. They offer great weather all year round, beautiful beaches, breathtaking landscapes, lots of fun activities and great accommodation options – Iberostar’s All Inclusive Canary Islands hotels are a great luxury option.
Ticket to an Event
Everyone has an event they would like to attend, but never get around to buying the tickets. Father’s Day is a good opportunity to surprise your dad with a ticket to an event you know he would enjoy.
This could either be watching his favourite sports team play or perhaps seeing his favourite music band or artist perform live. Whatever that may be, booking it will only take you a minute, whereas the experience will create a lifetime of memories for him!
A Rally Driving Experience
If your dad enjoys an adrenaline rush, a rally driving experience may be the perfect adventurous day out for him.
He can either try driving a rally car himself or simply be a passenger next to a professional racer. This experience will be filled with fun and excitement as well as a chance to learn more about rally cars and driving techniques.
Food or Drink Tasting
Treat your dad to a lovely tasting experience, where he can enjoy some mouth-watering foods or high-end drinks.
There are a lot of different tasting experiences you may choose from: you can go for solely alcoholic drinks (e.g. wine, beer, whiskey or gin tasting) or a specialised gourmet food experience, such as patisserie tasting.
All-in-one tasting experiences are also possible, combining a number of small courses with carefully-selected drinks to complement them.
A Specialised Class
Is there anything your dad has always wanted to learn, yet never got a chance to do it? If so, signing up to a specialised class will be the best experience gift for him on Father’s Day.
There are so many classes to choose from, from cooking and baking to specific crafting and skill-learning courses.
Even if he doesn’t have an interest in a particular class, this will be a good time for him to get a new hobby!
Final Thoughts
Experience gifts can be very easy to organise yet they also show a lot of thoughtfulness. Not only that, they create a lot of fun and meaningful memories that your dad will remember and appreciate forever.
