Unique Father's Day Gifts That Create Memories

Looking for some unique father's day gifts that are sure to please that special guy in your life? Whether he's the easiest guy in the world to buy for or the hardest you can go wrong with the gift of a fun experience that creates fond memories for him. Give the gift of an experience from Breakaway Experiences.

Breakaway Experiences has embraced the ever-growing popularity of “once-in-a-lifetime” and “bucket list” experiences. They offer certificates for a remarkable variety of unique experiences across the United States and Canada.

Here are just a few reasons that a gift from Breakaway Experiences makes for an awesome Father's Day gift (or birthday or anniversary well any occasion!):

  • Instant gifting – While some dads are last-minute shoppers now we can all wait until the last minute and not even leave the house! You can buy their present any time of day and instantly print it up to put in a card or simply email them.
  • A one-stop shop for some unique experiences for gifts in Canada and the United States.
  • Certificates never expire – They guarantee the value of all certificates. If a certificate is not redeemed within a year of purchase and the cost of the experience increases, the certificate holder will only have to pay the difference between the original value and the new price.
  • Hassle-free exchange policy – Not sure they will love the experience you picked? With our hassle-free exchange policy, they can simply trade it for the full value of the original certificate.
  • Can’t decide what experience to buy? Breakaway Experiences’ gift certificates are a great way for you to buy them a gift that he/she can use towards an experience that is on their bucket list.

  4. I did a blacksmith experience years ago with a friend through a Renaissance group and loved it. I think a blacksmith experience would be a great gift for anyone. You get to create something you can keep, and you get to have a memorable experience

  5. Experiences are always a preferred type of gift to receive and hand out. My home is already full of random decorations/appliances. Not a fan of gifting things which the receiving party may not even want or need. Experiences are what we live for and are typically a lot more memorable & enjoyable! 🙂

  11. For many years now in my family, we've exchanged "experiences" like tickets to events and such to cut down on landfill waste. A company like Breakaway Experiences is great for this.

  12. Experiences are the best gift, our daughter gave us a weekend away that we just used, (Christmas Gift) it was for her family plus my other daughter and my husband and I. She had us all booked in a large beachside cottage.

  13. My father is the least materialistic person I know so I think getting him an experience would be more fulfilling for the both of us. There's so many different choices for every type of dad out there.
