Long Distance Relationship Gifts

LDR Activities · June 26, 2019 · Updated August 31, 2026

When you're in a long distance relationship, sending your partner a surprise gift or present for their birthday takes extra thought. It's harder to enjoy the gift together.

Since there's distance between you two, you can't always buy gift experiences like concert tickets, couple's massages or weekend getaways.

Luckily there's a solution! We've found some of the best long distance relationship gifts you can enjoy together — updated for this year with the ones couples keep coming back to.

  1. The #LDR Activity Book - fun and interactive activities you complete with your partner, from a distance. The physical book is like a scrapbook of memories of your LDR — and yes, we're biased, but it's also the gift hundreds of couples trust with their relationship.
