American gifts for large budgets
#1 A trip to the USA
Let’s start this list with the number one gift for people who love the United States; a trip to the US!
It doesn’t even matter which state you take them to, as long as it’s in the US.
So check out Skyscanner and find a flight to a city the recipient loves.
Or head over to Viator and find out which tours they offer in the US.
And lastly, if you want to play it safe, go for the Global Experiences Gift card. It’s the Viator gift card that allows the recipient to pick a tour themselves.

#2 American hot sauces
Are you looking for American-themed gifts for someone who loves spicy food?
This is the gift you need.
A set of five American hot sauces. It includes mixes from Georgia, Florida, Texas, Chesapeake Bay, and Virginia.
#3 Mug with color-in map
This is one of the best American-themed gifts for people who love exploring every side of the US.
They can keep track of all the places they have visited on this mug!
So with every coffee, they can have a look at all the destinations they still want to visit.
There are two different options to go for.
One is a mug of the major US national parks, which is a great gift for nature lovers. The other option is a mug with the map of the US and all the states.
Oh and if you thought the colors would just fade away once you put them in the dishwasher. That’s not the case.
The ink will set by placing the mugs in the oven after coloring them. That way, the recipient can always update the mug when they’ve visited a new state or national park.

#6 USA-themed board game
Are you looking for American-themed gifts for board game lovers?

#10 Tote bag with a color-in USA map
This is one of my favorite American-themed gifts! A tote bag with a map of the United States. But what I love about it, is the fact that you can color in the states you have visited so far.
And I am 100% sure that people who love the US will love this bag too. There’s something about scratching and ticking off places you have visited, which is why most travelers love scratch maps so much.
However, if you would rather go for a different type of tote bag, check out Zazzle where you can find over 15,000 different American-themed tote bags.
#11 USA travel guides

#12 National parks scratch-off posters
Do you need American gifts for someone who loves nature? And who loves exploring US national parks?
Then you just found the perfect gift.
Scratch-off posters with US national parks. I selected three different options you can choose from.
The first one includes 54 national parks and 36 animals to be seen at these parks.
The second one includes 63 different US national parks and has the option to be personalized (a feature, I really like, but you also pay extra for it).
And the last one is a map with stickers, instead of a scratch-off poster.
#13 Something from their favorite city
People who love the US often have a city they love the most. So a great American gift idea is something related to their favorite city.
One example is this New York City etched glass for people who love NYC.
#14 USA cookbooks

#15 US landmarks scratch-off poster
Alright, I promise. This is (almost) the last scratch-off or color-in map gift on this list.
But you have to admit, scratching-off and coloring-in is just so much fun, that it always makes a good gift.
And one example of that is this poster with the top 100 USA landmarks. It’s one of the best American gifts for people who love bucket lists!
If you prefer a different design, check out the 75 iconic landmarks scratch-off poster on Uncommon Goods. The idea is the same though, just a different design (and price).
American gifts for small budgets

Í already shared quite a few map-related American gifts, but of course, I also had to include the regular scratch-off map.

You can choose from two options.
The first one on Amazon is the cheapest option and provides a colorful map once all the states have been scratched off. The second option on Uncommon Goods will show beautiful photographs of the states once they’re scratched off.
