Does she want a camera? If not, don't get her one. If so, maybe she has some idea of why she wants it.
Does she have the most recent iPhone?
My top recommendation is to make sure she has a top model iPhone. iPhone 15Pro has 3 cameras and 4 focal lengths, and is very good at close-up.
My second recommendation is if she is active then consider an Olympus Tough model. Whichever you can afford.
And up your cost assumptions.

Okay, I misread the situation. But I repeat the idea of an Olympus "Tough" or equivalent. Yet I will also repeat the concept about a phone recording to the cloud cuz bad things happen to hardware.
I guess with a camera you could alternate just two cards, swapping them every night. Then if the hardware went astray with one card, the other card still preserves the alternating days activities up to that point. Half a loaf is better than none.

If you use a micro card in an adapter in the camera you can take the card out at night and put it in the phone and send the pics to the cloud. Then save the micro card in a envelope or case and start with a new ew card the next day. Double back up for almost free

There is a time and a place for the big iron. Sometimes I want more control and versatility. But if I just want to enjoy the trip unencumbered, I take the phone.

A Pixel 8 Pro. Or, if you want to spend a little more, an iPhone 15 Pro.

Does it have to be new? If not, a second hand older Sony RX100 (Mk iii or thereabouts) would be a good choice.
I have a Mark 1 and a Mark III. Get the Mark iii. Great little camera.
