The Top 5 Backpacks for Traveling

Traveling can be a fun and exciting experience, but it can also be a bit daunting if you don't have the right gear. I find having at least one piece of luggage that's hands free saves so much stress and struggle. Finding the perfect backpack for your journey is essential to ensuring comfort and convenience during your travels. To help you make an informed decision, here is an in-depth look at some of the best backpacks for travelling!


The Osprey Farpoint 55 is a great choice for those looking for a lightweight bag with plenty of storage space. It features adjustable hip fins that provide extra support while carrying, as well as side zip entry which makes getting your items out easier without having to take the pack off. Plus, its durable construction stands up any kind of weather while still being comfortable to wear on long trips anywhere in the world.


The Amazon Choice Extra Large 52L Travel Laptop Backpack earned that title for a reason. We wanted to try something at a more affordable price point than many of the other packs we've reviewed. This backpack is perfect for carrying around heavier items in comfort and style. It features 20 independent pockets for large storage and organization, as well as three spacious main multi compartments with hidden pockets to store college supplies, travel accessories, clothing and more. Plus, it comes with an external USB port that allows you to charge your phone conveniently on the go. The shoulder straps are also adjustable and include a lanyard design to hang sunglasses or other small items. For the price, the durable construction is pleasantly surprising.


This backpack is an amazon best-seller that was actually recommended to me by a friend. This backpack features a component that the others don't... a shoe compartment! This is perfect for traveling as it can be worn as a backpack but the contents can be accessed suitcase style. No more dumping out your backpack on the floor! The shoe compartment keeps your clothes and other items seperate from potentially dirty/wet shoes. This backpack is really innovative and comes in the nicest modern colors.


For something also stylish yet still durable, check out The North Face Vault backpack. With its sleek design and generous internal storage offerings, this bag can accommodate all your needs without sacrificing style points! And its waterproof materials ensures that your belongings stay safe and dry no matter what kind of weather you face along the way. This backpack is available in a wide variety of colors so you definitely won't lose track of it at baggage claim (though we recommend it as a perfect carry on!)

Last but not least, consider the Fjallraven Kanken Classic if you're after a reliable yet affordable option that won't let you down. We know you're probably not surprised to see this make an appearance on the list. It's a classic for a reason. This bag offers great durability regardless of any conditions outside - plus it's still light enough to carry around easily everywhere else! The Kankan is aesthetically pleasing, versatile, and suits anyone!


No matter which backpack you choose, hopefully this guide helps make finding the perfect travel backpack easier so you can enjoy your trip no matter where life takes you!
