In today’s article, we want to show you what would be the best travel books for you to give as gifts for car travelers and drivers who want to travel when this pandemic is over.
Although some people are selling their cars due to several reasons like financial difficulties, many are also buying because they feel bored at home and want to go somewhere else. This is the reason why buying and selling cars have been active at ZeMotor for more than a year now.
In addition, this list is also useful if you want to give a traveler a special gift or, it may even serve as inspiration for your next reading if you are a travel lover like us.
Because nothing better than mixing two of a person’s passions, reading, and travel, in the same gift.
Next, you will find books that we have read ourselves or books that we have good and reliable links to. We hope you can find the best travel book among them to buy or give away.

The following travel books are written by travelers. In this section, we include books that have been written by travelers, in which you can read about their travels and find inspiration to travel.
We personally know the authors of many of these books, and I have to say that not only did they write these books and travel a lot, but they also have great people.
Catch your dream is the book that Candelaria and Herman Zapp wrote at the beginning of their great adventure, when they began their journey in an old Graham-Paige from 1928 and which has taken them around the world for more than 17 years.
It is a recommended book for travelers and dreamers since it shows that any dream is possible if it is pursued with enthusiasm.

This book is a teaching of life and humility. If you don’t like this book by Álvaro, you can choose any of the ones he already has published, they are all very large.
Travel guides to give to travelers
Within the travel book genre, it can sometimes be a practical gift for any traveler to give a guide related to the next trip you have in mind.
Next, we leave you a series of guides that we believe may be useful to organize a trip and, as you already know, we have focused on guides to organize road routes
Lonely Planet guides may be the best known among travelers, but we want to highlight this series that they have released on-road routes.
In these guides, you will find information of interest, some pre-established routes, interesting indications, etc. on each corresponding zone.
Traveling Freely in Europe is the book in which Marc Ripol and Fernando Lázaro propose 30 routes to travel by car in Europe.
Like us, they defend the means of transport that offers the most freedom in the car, therefore the routes they propose are designed to be done by car.
West Coast Travel is the book in which Delfi Sánchez offers all the necessary information so that you can design your route along the West Coast of the United States.
Books to give to traveling children or traveling families
Although we do not have children, we do know families who travel with children or have traveled with children on occasion, that is why we know the importance of involving children in trips and awakening their curiosity before, during, and after trips.
The ease or difficulty of the task depends on the age of the kid but we are convinced that any child can read with proper parental guidance.
For that reason, we do not want to leave the little ones out of this list and we have made this special section with books to give to traveling children and we have also included a book for parents who travel with children
How Much Left? is the book in which Marc Ripol and May Borraz propose 20 routes to travel with children by car in Europe, which include activities to do with the little ones in the house.
Traveling by automobile with youngsters is typically a retardant for several families, however, we will say that it’s not impossible, you only ought to skills to adapt to the trip and this book helps during this task.
My first Lonely Planet is another example of the special series Lonely Planet has, this time a series of guides for children who travel.
The guides in this edition help children better understand what they are seeing, what they are going to visit, etc.
Pepe Mouse and His Friends is a series of books by the Everest publishing house that travels through the main Spanish capitals teaching the little ones all the curiosities of each one of them.
We know that there are many missing, but we wanted to leave some to make more editions of this list that will come out soon
