Whether you’re traveling for business or pleasure, you might be looking for a way to, well, pleasure yourself while on the road. Just as they can in your own bedroom, sex toys can make nights (or days) at a hotel or rental even more enjoyable, no matter if you’re checking in alone or with a partner. But if your trip involves passing through an airport or any other place that might want to peek in your bag, you might prefer traveling with a toy that won’t make people look twice — or worse, ask what it is — if they come across it. Those looking to maximize every inch of luggage space might also want something smaller that doesn’t sacrifice power when it comes to stimulation.

To find the best travel-friendly sex toys, we asked six experts — including sex therapists, educators, and shop owners — about the ones they’d recommend. (Then we checked our archives for any others we’ve written about that seem particularly suited for travel.) Discreet toys, or ones that don’t obviously look like a sex toy, came up a lot, suggesting this is a most important factor when choosing something travel-friendly. Size can help when it comes to discretion, according to several of our experts who pointed us to tinier toys that deliver just-as-strong sensations as larger models. Another general tip? Look for single-use toys that, while not better for the environment, typically cost less and can be easily tossed so you don’t have to worry about bringing them back. No matter what toy you choose to travel with, Samantha Bard, a co-owner of Williamsburg’s Shag, has some advice: “Don’t check your toys! I hear time after time from clients that their toys go missing from their checked luggage and this has also happened multiple times to a personal friend of mine who is a sex educator,” she says. Bard adds to store any toys in a “lint-free bag apart from each other” — we’ve got lots of expert-recommended sex-toy storage here, if you’re looking — and to remember to “turn on a toy’s travel lock if there is one.”

Below, Bard and our other experts’ favorite travel-friendly sex toys, which take many forms, from bullet vibrators to wand vibrators to palm vibrators and air-suction toys, to rings, strokers, and plugs. If you know the type of toy you seek (or want to learn more about), you can click on any of the links in the previous sentence to jump to that section. Where applicable, we begin each category with any travel-friendly sex toys we heard about the most.

Crave Vesper

In reporting our story on the best bullet vibrators, Zoe Ligon, the owner of Spectrum Boutique in Detroit, told us that the style is “great for travel” because they tend to be smaller by design. Plus, as we wrote, while bullet vibrators are typically thought of as being designed for clitoral stimulation, they can actually be used to stimulate many different body parts in solo or couple’s play, and this versatility also makes them more travel-friendly. So it might not be surprising to hear that Crave’s wearable Vesper bullet vibrator, which looks like a necklace, was by far the most recommended sex toy by the experts we spoke to for this story, all six of whom mentioned it.

Bard says it’s great “because it is so discreet — you can literally wear it as a necklace, just put it in the X-ray bin with your other jewelry, and no one will be the wiser.” Sex and confidence coach Jennifer Doan agrees, calling the vibrator easy to transport because of its design. Certified clinical sexologist Gigi Engle, the author of All the F*cking Mistakes: A Guide to Sex, Love, and Life, says she’s successfully worn it through airport security and that the toy doesn’t just look nice, but “offers intense pinpoint clitoral stimulation.” Sex therapist Megan Fleming seconds that, saying this toy “packs a lot of punch.” Sex educator Jacq Jones, the owner of Baltimore’s Sugar shop, also told us that this vibrator is way more intense that it looks. As Sid Azmi, the owner of Please in Brooklyn, explains, that’s due to its four different speeds. Shown in silver, it’s also available in gold and rose gold.

We-Vibe Tango

When we asked Azmi about the best bullet vibrators, she told us that We-Vibe’s Tango made a splash when it was released because it was the first bullet vibrator to deliver really strong vibrations in such a small package. Dalychia Saah and Rafaella Fiallo, the creators of Afrosexology, say this is why it makes a great travel-friendly sex toy, calling the Tango, which has eight different vibration settings, “small but powerful” and easy to pack.

Tenga Iroha Stick

Here’s another travel-friendly sex toy that doesn’t look like one. As sex educator Lola Jean notes, the lipstick-shaped Tenga Iroha “looks like it could be just another cosmetic in my makeup bag.” It has another fan in intimacy coach Davia Frost. The toy’s tip delivers precise vibration to the clitoris and there’s a dial at the bottom of the tube you can use to increase its intensity.

Femme Funn Booster Bullet

“As an erotic educator, pre-COVID, I was traveling up to 11 times a year,” says Organic Loven founder Taylor Sparks. “And traveling with my own personal sex toys is a must.” Sparks calls the Femme Funn bullet vibrator her favorite travel-friendly toy. “It’s my go-to because of its slim design and 20 vibration modes” she says, adding that it’s also great for couples because its thinner profile means it “doesn’t get in the way during oral or penetrative sex.”

Lelo Lily 2

This next batch of toys all share one travel-friendly feature: They’re tiny enough to fit in the palm of your hand (and therefore very easy to pack). “This vibe looks like a mouse for your computer,” Bard says of Lelo’s Lily, which she notes has one of the “widest ranges of intensities on the market.” That range, as she puts it, “goes from barely a whisper of vibration to full on whoa, including multiple pulse modes and patterns.” Bard also told us this has a particularly travel-friendly feature that will never have you worrying about it turning on in your bag. “Hold down both buttons at once to engage the travel lock,” she instructs. “Problem solved!”

Clandestine Mimic Plus Vibrating Massager

Sparks says the Mimic is a “palm-sized vibrator” that also “has its own travel lock, amazing rumbly vibrations, and is waterproof.” While compact, she says the toy is quite ingeniously designed: “It is curved to fit in the palm of your hand, but lays so nicely on the vulva, and the tip can be used on the clitoris.” Flexible wings make it even easier to get the toy, which has eight vibration patterns, right where you need it.

We-Vibe Touch X Green Velvet

The Touch X from We-Vibe is another ergonomically designed vibrator with a slightly curvy shape that fits easily into the palm of your hand. It has eight intensity levels and seven different vibration patterns. When we tested it out, we wrote that “one cool feature is the travel lock: Just hold down the plus and minus buttons and the vibrator won’t accidentally turn on in your bag and kill the battery — or get you into an awkward TSA situation.”

Satisfyer Pro Traveler

Sparks told us that this air-suction toy — a category we dive deeper into here — is her “newest travel companion.” The clitoral stimulator, like the others in this group, is “small enough to fit in the palm of your hand” and has “11 whisper-quiet programs,” she says. Plus, there’s a “travel cap that keeps it very discreet” — so discreet, in fact, you might be able to use it before you get where you’re going. “It’s perfect for long flights when a bathroom pick-me-up is needed,” Sparks says.

Palm Power Pocket Vibe

While they’re a little bigger than the palm vibrators and still look like sex toys, our experts’ favorite travel-friendly wand vibrators, for the most part, are smaller than your average wand and therefore more discreet and easier to pack. Bard pointed us to Palm Power’s Pocket Vibe, which she calls a “big vibrator in a discreet, small package.” She notes it not only has a “flexible head and multiple speeds and patterns,” but also comes with a “tough carrying case convenient for travel and storage.”

Le Wand Petite

“I adore this toy for travel,” says Engle. “It’s super-powerful, but much smaller than the original,” with ten vibration speeds and six patterns. The cordless wand also comes in stylish colors like rose gold, making it a bit nicer-looking than a standard Hitachi. “Plus, it comes with a travel bag and has an airplane setting,” Engle adds.

Zalo Kyro Wand Massager

Daniel Saynt, the founder of sex-and-cannibis-friendly private-members club the New Society for Wellness, admits this wand is not exactly travel-size, but recommends it to anyone looking for “a multifunctional pleaser” while away. It comes with a few attachments — a standard head, one for more targeted stimulation, and another for internal stimulation — all of which can be used with one of the toy’s five vibration modes and six speeds. As Saynt puts it, this wand “provides endless options” when it comes to self-stimulation — something you may want if you’re traveling for a long period of time.

TENGA Egg Lovers Heart Textured Male Masturbator

Tenga’s eggs have been recommended to us time and time again by experts. “Tenga has gorgeous, really well-designed toys for penises,” says Searah Deysach, the owner of Chicago sex-toy shop Early to Bed. What makes them travel-friendly is their disposability. As Andy Duran, the educational-outreach coordinator at sex-toy retailer Good Vibrations, told us, “I often say, ‘Hey, throw this in your backpack while you’re going away for the weekend, and just throw it out before you come back.’ It’s just a little treat.” The toy is made from a thermoplastic elastomer that sex counselor Ian Kerner, the author of She Comes First, says “opens easily to wrap around the penis and adds different flair to both masturbation and partnered hand jobs.”

Ohnut Intimate Wearable Ring

The Ohnut is a set of stackable silicone rings that allows a user to adjust depth during penetrative sex. It’s a great travel-friendly alternative to traditional rings because the toy looks more like loose silicone pieces to the unsuspecting, like your friendly TSA agent. Experts have recommended it to us a lot — they’ve said it is one of the best non-vibrating sex toys, best sex toys for partners, and best sex toys for men. “It takes off as much length as you need in a comfortable seamless way,” explains Ligon, who calls the non-vibrating toy “a really innovative piece of sex technology that is not motorized.”

Screaming O Vibrating Ring

Should you prefer a vibrating ring — that also happens to be less expensive and disposable — Duran told us about this option from Screaming O. He calls it effective, discreet, and travel-friendly because it’s designed for one-time use.

Chakrubs The Xaga Root

Chakrubs’ sex toys are all made from body-safe crystals like amethyst, rose quartz, and jade. Because of this, intimacy coach Alexandra Roxo, the author of F*ck Like a Goddess, says they’re more like works of art — and look like décor, too, making them discreet enough to leave out on a hotel’s bedside table. The brand has a range of products from anal plugs, like the toy shown, to dildos that you don’t need to worry about charging when you’re on the road.

Cute Little Fuckers Princette Puppypus

Finally, Jean told us about this sex toy that looks like an octopus figurine — “a literal toy,” as she puts it — complete with eight little legs. Those legs, though, serve a purpose beyond making the sea creature appear anatomically correct: They give the vibrating toy a flared base that makes it a great butt plug. As Jean notes, it can also be used as a vibrator to simulate the clitoris.
