Are gift vouchers a good 50th birthday gift?

Choosing the right gift can feel challenging, and when it’s a birthday as big a deal as a 50th, the pressure is on. So why not consider giving a gift voucher, and give them the freedom to decide exactly what they want? 

A gift voucher is a great 50th birthday gift - but only if you give the right kind of voucher. Avoid gift cards for a mall or shop, as those are basically just a fancy way of giving someone cash. It doesn’t have a personal touch or a lot of thought behind the gift, and it shows. 

But a gift voucher for an experience is completely different. You are giving someone the opportunity to do something exciting that they might not have done otherwise. People are not always likely to put time aside to enjoy themselves, let alone pay to do something extra special purely for the purpose of enjoyment. That’s where we come in. With an Adrenaline gift voucher you are giving them permission to have an adventure, do something exciting, and make memories worth remembering. That’s the most valuable gift you can give anyone, and it’s a great gift idea for a 50th birthday. 

So, you could give them a gift voucher for a specific experience, like skydiving or an adrenaline gift voucher for a dollar amount of your choice to spend on an experience of their choice. Either way, you’re nailing it with a unique and thoughtful 50th birthday present.

As a bonus, our gift vouchers operate with complete flexibility. A voucher is valid for five years, and can actually be used to purchase any experience on the site - even if it was originally purchased for a specific experience. So, for example, a skydiving voucher could be used to book a horse riding tour, and vice versa. If it costs more than the value of the original experience someone just has to pay the difference - it’s that easy! So whatever happens, you know that in the end your gift will be used on something that they’re really excited about, and that’s a great safety net.

Plus, you can purchase Adrenaline experiences and vouchers online in a matter of moments - with Afterpay available - and have it instantly delivered by email. So it’s a great last minute gift idea no matter how late you’ve left it. You can buy online easily and find thousands of great 50th birthday gift ideas at your fingertips.

Make the 50th birthday the special occasion it should be with an Adrenaline experience.
