Benefits

You're about to take the trip of a lifetime and need a backpack that's an asset, not a problem. Most bags are designed for hikers and are not properly sized or organized for travelers. Learn more about the Tortuga Travel Backpack below.

  • 1Designed Specifically for Travel

    We've designed the Tortuga Travel Backpack to be the ideal piece of luggage for traveling. We searched everywhere to find a backpack designed for long-term travel, but it didn't exist. So we created it. You're not going hiking, so don't buy a hiking bag. Instead, opt for Tortuga, the first and only bag designed specifically for urban travelers.

  • 2Guaranteed

    Because we designed the Tortuga for our own demanding travel needs, we know you'll love it.

    If you are dissatisfied for any reason, you can return your backpack within 30 days for a prompt and courteous refund of 110% of your purchase price.

    If your bag ever breaks, just return it to us for a replacement under our Lifetime Guarantee.

  • 3Always Free Shipping

    We hate paying for shipping as much as you do. Because the Tortuga is only available online, shipping is free. No coupons needed.

  • 4Carry Everything

    Even if you have all of your worldly possessions on your back, the Tortuga can handle them. The main compartment provides 45 liters (2,772 cubic inches) of storage, the maximum size for carry on luggage. When you're on the go, use the exterior pockets for quick access to everything you need. The Tortuga has all the space you need to pack smartly for your trip without any extra bulk.

  • 5Be Comfortable

    Many backpacks can cause painful neck, shoulder, and back pain. When you're spending your days on the go, you can't sacrifice comfort. 

    The Tortuga's padded hip belt distributes the pack's weight to your hips, preventing shoulder strain. Airmesh back padding provides a cushion for your back while allowing airflow to keep you cool. 

    To ensure that the Tortuga is packed for maximum comfort, use the interior, mesh pocket to keep your heaviest items (like shoes or a laptop) centered to avoid backache.

  • 6Hassle-Free

    Avoid the usual airport headaches by easily hiding away the Tortuga's shoulder straps. When the shoulder straps are hidden away, you can carry the Tortuga with the comfortable top or side handle. As frequent travelers, we know that one broken strap can ruin a bag, so avoid the risk and enjoy your trip.

  • 7Keep Your Stuff Safe

    Having your passport or money stolen is the quickest way to ruin a trip. The Tortuga's two main compartments use lockable, double zippers, so you can securely padlock them. Unlike other backpacks with drawstring or buckle closures, the Tortuga is designed with your security in mind. 

    You can also hide small items like your passport and money in the Tortuga's interior, zippered "Stash Pocket." Enjoy your travels and stop worrying about theft at the hostel or on the train.
