Looking for an extraordinarily unique Christmas gift for her this year? One of the most challenging things when buying a special present is trying to find a sentimental, useful, fun gift that can arrive in time for the big day.
Whether you need the perfect present for mum, a girlfriend, a partner, or your best friend- you can't go wrong with a gift that's filled with adventure and helps them learn a little more about themselves!
This is where experience days can come in handy (especially if you've left it last minute). Giving the gift of an unforgettable experience in Bristol is a brilliant alternative to busy shops, delayed deliveries, and panic buying something that isn't as heartfelt as you would have liked.
If you want to be creative with your gift-giving this year, switch it up from the usual bath gift sets, boxes of chocolates, scented candles, perfume gifts, or food hamper.
Below you can find a Christmas gift guide for her that will help you pick an unusual gift that will suit any interest she might have whilst giving her something to really look forward to in 2023. Each of these experiences is hosted by an independent creator or small business, so you support Bristol's local community whilst crossing names off your list.
Spoiled for choice or still unsure of what you really want to get that special person? A gift card means that she can choose her own adventure! She might have always secretly wanted to learn how to sing, maybe she'd love to try foraging, or perhaps she's always wanted to learn more about wine? A Yuup gift card means that she can pick any day or evening out, to do something that she's always wanted to experience.
Below you'll find a list of Christmas gift ideas for women, divided up into these helpful sections:
