How To Buy A Gift For Anyone And Guarantee They’ll Love It

*I was gifted an Ultimate Moments box in exchange for this post.
But all thoughts and opinions are my own

Anyone who has read my blog before will know how much of an advocate of experience gifts I am. There are so many advantages to experience gifts. The person you’re gifting will get the chance to do something and create lasting memories. I’ve booked experience gifts for my dad quite a lot as it’s meant we can go out and do something together like archery or shooting.

The brand has been pioneering the idea of experience gifts since 1989. Before I was even born (just!) And they have so many gifting options.

Red Letter Days not only offer a lot of experience’s but they also offer gift boxes like the Ultimate Moments Box* featured here. This means you’re giving them an experience gift but they can choose exactly what they want to do. Great for someone who perhaps you don’t know as well. Or you want to give them the ultimate choice.

The boxes can be sent digitally if you’re a bit last minute, but these physical boxes are beautiful and mean you’ve got something to wrap.

Red Letter Days Gift Boxes

With the Ultimate Moments Box, you have the choice of over 945 different experiences to choose from all across the UK. The thing I love most about this is you can choose to do something locally. Or you can use it as an excuse to get away and have a mini-break.

Within the various options of what to do, you can choose to book a mini-break away with plenty of 1 or 2-night hotel getaways. I love this idea as if you gift it to someone you’re not only giving them a present. But you’re giving them a holiday. A chance to get away and relax, which after Christmas is just what I’m sure we’d all love to do. And you can choose from hundreds of hotels all over the country.

One option we were debating with when we booked our experience was a spa day. We’re heading up to Edinburgh in January for my birthday and were tempted to choose somewhere here. But this was beaten by something else which caught our eye.

Experiences you can book with Red Letter Days

For our experience, we’ve booked into the Hotel Chocolat Bean to Bar Chocolate Making class. We’ll get the chance to learn about the art of chocolate making, create our own chocolate and then leave with a goodie bag of treats. I didn’t realise an experience like this even existed and I’m really excited to head there as a pre-Christmas treat.

If you’re a food lover but sweets aren’t quite your thing you can choose a Michelin star meal with drinks or dinner with champagne.

For adrenaline junkies, you can bungee jump, go-kart, or even indulge in thrilling jet ski rentals at Fort Walton Beach. I’ve done the Lee Valley white water rafting, which is such an incredible experience that I’d 100% recommend it if you get the chance.

If you’re in London you can choose tickets to a West End show which is an amazing idea as there are so many great shows out at the moment.

Have you ever thought about buying an experience gift?
