1. Gift them a few special essentials to take on the trip
This is such a cute way to reveal the surprise!
2. Surprise trip scavenger hunt
Where your family or loved ones have to follow a trail of surprise clues that will lead them to the main surprise, the trip reveal! For example, clues for a surprise trip to Dublin in Ireland could be the Irish harp symbol, a clover leaf, the celtic spiral, a castle... so many ideas! A fun thing to do is write the surprise trip location with a secret pen and hide the lights around the room that would reveal the message!
3. Set your screensaver or homescreen
On all your devices to a picture of the location or a sneaky emblem that points to your surprise vacation! This is a great way to surprise your partner.
4. Change text autocorrect on their phone
Change a common phrase they're always using to 'we're going to (vacation place)' or some similar phrase, to surprise them when they use it.
5. Put a surprise keyring on their keys
Car keys or house keys, secretly pop one of those vacation keyrings you can find, or souvenir keyrings, on their keys. It's one of the most fun ways to announce a holiday and the fact that this is so discreet builds anticipation for the best surprise ever!
6. Decking the whole room out like the place you are going
You could create palm trees, leaf garlands and vines out of paper - all the balloons and streamers too for a surprise birthday trip! You could even put together a special themed meal with mocktails or mugs of hot cocoa, depending on where you are going!
7. Pack a mini suitcase for them
Full of things they might need when going to that location, like suncream, sunglasses, a sun hat...
8. Plant the trip reveal inside a wrapped up 'gift'
Wrap the trip reveal, it could be a slip of paper or a postcard of where you are going, up in several layers of boxes and paper (try to make sure they are recyclable!) to make it look like you are giving them a huge gift. They will be confused as they unravel layer after layer and the gift gets smaller and smaller - until they receive the epic surprise at the bottom. This is the perfect time to try this trick as you can guarantee your recepient will be getting more and more disappointed as they continue and see the present getting smaller and smaller - only to be given a huge surprise at the end! A rollercoaster of emotions and so much fun for the whole family!
9. Sneakily plant a postcard of where you are going on the family fridge
You could even subtly add an extra postcard to the fridge every day until the fridge is full of pictures of your location and someone twigs the surprise!
10. Make them special meals for tea that pertain to the location where you are going
You could even adorn dishes with little mini flags for a big hint!
11. A surprise trip reveal poem!
Ideas for this could include an anagram or riddle to keep your loved one guessing. You could hide it inside a surprise holiday reveal card and post it to your boyfriend or loved ones!
12. A surprise holiday reveal balloon
Have it waiting in your living room when everyone wakes up. An alternative could be a surprise pinata, filled with confetti and a folded up picture of your surprise destination.
13. Get your furry friend to announce the surprise
Why not attach a special custom tag to your pet's collar revealing the surprise - or dress up your pet to reveal the surprise. They will be sure to get plenty of fuss!
14. Prank them at the same time!
Leave a mess for them to clean up, but position your clue just sticking out where they will be able to find and see it. Use big letters to pique their curiosity - so they don't discard the clue as a piece of litter!
15. Pop a sticker on them while they are asleep
With the surprise reveal written on it. This is a hilarious way to prank your recipient in the best way and surprise them at the same time!
16. Create a 'pin the correct destination' game
The most fun way to announce your trip ever!
17. A 'spin the wheel' surprise announcement
18. The decorated plate surprise announcement idea
This is such a good trick! Get your hands on a plain white plate and some plate decorating pens or paint - even the kinds kids often use to decorate a plate for Grandma. You can create a really cute message or design - and then be sure to follow the instructions to let the paint or ink set - it is often recommended to pop in the oven for a certain time. Once it is completely dry, you can set about preparing the meal or batch of cupcakes and dish it out on to the newly decorated plate, covering the message. Then wait til your recipients start eating to reveal the cute surprise! You get to keep the memory and relive it every time you use the plate for a meal! It's such a cute surprise idea and you can get really creative with the design and message you choose to give.
19. A heated mug surprise announcement
You can get personalised heated mugs that are amazing! Once your recipient goes to use it and pours in hot liquid, the surprise will be revealed. This is one of the cutest surprise trip ideas ever!
20. Play a game of Pictoword
Where they have to figure out the message from a bunch of symbols and images! This will increase the excitement and anticipation to figure out the surprise.

This is such a cool and exciting way to surprise your recipient! Just replace with a hot drink of their choice.
22. Announce it on a cushion 👈🏻
