Socially-Distanced Experiences to Gift This Christmas

Socially-Distanced Experiences to Gift This Christmas

This year has been completely different. All the holidays that have passed have been different but, we’ve adapted and enjoyed them fully but, differently.

Christmas will be no different.

If anything, thinking outside-the-box and giving unique gifts that give an experience will be one of the top gifts to give.

Even with social-distancing and taking more safety measures, there is plenty of fun, unique, and unforgettable experiences you can give a loved one.

Breakaway Experiences have over 1000 experiences to choose from. Bucket list and once in a lifetime experiences like car racing and helicopter rides.

Certificates never expire and you can always exchange your experiences. No hassle. I love the flexibility!

Plus, if you are here because you left Christmas shopping for last-minute, Breakaway Experiences has got your back with an instant gift that will give memories to last a lifetime.
