• Mark Twain Travel Quotes
Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the Earth all one’s lifetime.
To do something, say something, see something, before anybody else — these are the things that confer a pleasure compared with which other pleasures are tame and commonplace, other ecstasies cheap and trivial. Lifetimes of ecstasy crowded into a single moment.
![tourism motivational quotes](https://theworldtravelguy.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/DSCF3169-2.jpg)
It is the loveliest fleet of islands [ Hawaii ] that lies anchored in any ocean.
No alien land in all the world has any deep strong charm for me but that one [ Hawaii ], no other land could so longingly and so beseechingly haunt me, sleeping and waking, through half a lifetime, as that one has done. Other things leave me, but it abides; other things change, but it remains the same. For me the balmy airs are always blowing, its summer seas flashing in the sun; the pulsing of its surfbeat is in my ear; I can see its garlanded crags, its leaping cascades, its plumy palms drowsing by the shore, its remote summits floating like islands above the cloud wrack; I can feel the spirit of its wildland solitudes, I can hear the splash of its brooks; in my nostrils still lives the breath of flowers that perished twenty years ago.

The great affair is to move; to feel the needs and hitches of our life more nearly; to come down off this feather-bed of civilization, and find the globe granite underfoot and strewn with cutting flints. — Robert Louis Stevenson
![tourism motivational quotes](https://theworldtravelguy.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/DSCF1562-2.jpg)
Stuff your eyes with wonder, live as if you’d drop dead in ten seconds. See the world. It’s more fantastic than any dream made or paid for in factories. — Ray Bradbury
We leave something of ourselves behind when we leave a place. We stay there, even though we go away. And there are things in us that we can find again only by going back there. — Pascal Mercier
Once in a while it really hits people that they don’t have to experience the world in the way they have been told to. — Alan Keightley
Every dreamer knows that it is entirely possible to be homesick for a place you’ve never been to, perhaps more homesick than for familiar ground. — Judith Thurman
![tourism motivational quotes](https://theworldtravelguy.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/DSCF4433.jpg)
Once you have traveled, the voyage never ends, but is played out over and over again in the quietest chambers. The mind can never break off from the journey. — Pat Conroy
No man is brave that has never walked a hundred miles. If you want to know the truth of who you are, walk until not a person knows your name. Travel is the great leveler, the great teacher, bitter as medicine, crueler than mirror-glass. A long stretch of road will teach you more about yourself than a hundred years of quiet. — Patrick Rothfuss
It is always sad to leave a place to which one knows one will never return. Such are the melancolies du voyage: perhaps they are one of the most rewarding things about traveling. — Gustave Flaubert
![tourism motivational quotes](https://theworldtravelguy.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/DJI_0678.jpg)
The wish to travel seems to me characteristically human: the desire to move, to satisfy your curiosity or ease your fears, to change the circumstances of your life, to be a stranger, to make a friend, to experience an exotic landscape, to risk the unknown. — Paul Theroux
Although I deeply love oceans, deserts and other wild landscapes, it is only mountains that beckon me with that sort of painful magnetic pull to walk deeper and deeper into their beauty. They keep me continuously wanting to know more, feel more, see more. — Victoria Erickson

• Travel With Friends Quotes
A journey is best measured in friends, rather than miles. — Tim Cahill
You will never be completely at home again, because part of your heart always will be elsewhere. That is the price you pay for the richness of loving and knowing people in more than one place. — Miriam Adeney
We are all travelers in the wilderness of this world, and the best we can find in our travels is an honest friend. — Robert Louis Stevenson
![tourism motivational quotes](https://theworldtravelguy.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/DSCF0577.jpg)
• Adventure Travel Quotes
Adventure is worthwhile in itself. — Amelia Earhart
If you think adventure is dangerous, try routine; it is lethal. — Paulo Coelho
Most of us abandoned the idea of a life full of adventure and travel sometime between puberty and our first job. Our dreams died under the dark weight of responsibility. Occasionally the old urge surfaces, and we label it with names that suggest psychological aberrations: the big chill, a midlife crisis. — Tim Cahill
Only by going alone in silence, without baggage, can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness. All other travel is mere dust and hotels and baggage and chatter. — John Muir
Wilderness is not a luxury but a necessity of the human spirit, and as vital to our lives as water and good bread. — Edward Abbey
![tourism motivational quotes](https://theworldtravelguy.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/DSCF3678.jpg)
Once a journey is designed, equipped, and put in process, a new factor enters and takes over. A trip, a safari, an exploration, is an entity, different from all other journeys. It has personality, temperament, individuality, uniqueness. A journey is a person in itself; no two are alike. And all plans, safeguards, policing, and coercion are fruitless. We find after years of struggle that we do not take a trip; a trip takes us. Tour masters, schedules, reservations, brass-bound and inevitable, dash themselves to wreckage on the personality of the trip. Only when this is recognized can the blown-in-the glass bum relax and go along with it. Only then do the frustrations fall away. In this a journey is like marriage. The certain way to be wrong is to think you control it. — John Steinbeck
What is that feeling when you’re driving away from people and they recede on the plain till you see their specks dispersing? – it’s the too-huge world vaulting us, and it’s good-bye. But we lean forward to the next crazy venture beneath the skies. — Jack Kerouac
A ship is safe in harbor, but that’s not what ships are for. — J.A. Shedd
Do not follow where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and make a trail. — Ralph Waldo Emerson
![tourism motivational quotes](https://theworldtravelguy.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/IMG_0942-2-3.jpg)
It’s a terrible thing, I think, in life to wait until you’re ready. I have this feeling now that actually no one is ever ready to do anything. There is almost no such thing as ready. There is only now. And you may as well do it now. Generally speaking, now is as good a time as any. — Hugh Laurie
Adventure is a path. Real adventure – self-determined, self-motivated, often risky – forces you to have firsthand encounters with the world. The world the way it is, not the way you imagine it. Your body will collide with the Earth and you will bear witness. In this way you will be compelled to grapple with the limitless kindness and bottomless cruelty of humankind – and perhaps realize that you yourself are capable of both. This will change you. Nothing will ever again be black-and-white. — Mark Jenkins
![tourism motivational quotes](https://theworldtravelguy.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/DSCF4099.jpg)
The very basic core of a man’s living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun. — Christopher McCandless
Adventure is allowing the unexpected to happen to you. Exploration is experiencing what you have not experienced before. How can there be any adventure, any exploration, if you let somebody else – above all, a travel bureau – arrange everything before-hand? — Richard Aldington
Be careful because Cambodia is the most dangerous place you will ever visit. You will fall in love with it, and eventually it will break your heart. — Joel Brinkley

• Solo Travel Quotes
To awaken quite alone in a strange town is one of the most pleasant sensations in the world. — Freya Stark
Do not go where the path may lead; go instead where there is no path and leave a trail. — Unknown
I can’t think of anything that excites a greater sense of childlike wonder than to be in a country where you are ignorant of almost everything. Suddenly you are five years old again. You can’t read anything, you have only the most rudimentary sense of how things work, you can’t reliably cross a street without endangering your life. Your whole existence becomes a series of interesting guesses. — Bill Bryson
The true fruit of travel is perhaps the feeling of being nearly everywhere at home. — Freya Stark
![tourism motivational quotes](https://theworldtravelguy.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/DSCF3895-9.jpg)
When you’ve managed to stumble directly into the heart of the unknown – either through the misdirection of others, or better yet, through your own creative ineptitude – there is no one there to hold your hand or tell you what to do. In those bad lost moments, in the times when we are advised not to panic, we own the unknown, and the world belongs to us. The child within has full reign. Few of us are ever so free. — Tim Cahill
No one realizes how beautiful it is to travel until he comes home and rests his head on his old, familiar pillow. — Lin Yutang
He travels the fastest who travels alone. — Rudyard Kipling
![tourism motivational quotes](https://theworldtravelguy.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/DSCF5260-2.jpg)
Travel can be one of the most rewarding forms of introspection. — Lawrence Durrell
When the traveler goes alone he gets acquainted with himself. — Liberty Hyde Bailey
The man who goes alone can start today; but he who travels with another must wait till that other is ready. — Henry David Thoreau
![tourism motivational quotes](https://theworldtravelguy.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/DJI_0013.jpg)
I think one travels more usefully when they travel alone, because they reflect more. — Thomas Jefferson
Loving life is easy when you are abroad. Where no one knows you and you hold your life in your hands all alone, you are more master of yourself than at any other time. — Hannah Arendt
Personally I like going places where I don’t speak the language, don’t know anybody, don’t know my way around and don’t have any delusions that I’m in control. Disoriented, even frightened, I feel alive, awake in ways I never am at home. — Michael Mewshaw
![tourism motivational quotes](https://theworldtravelguy.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/DSCF1709.jpg)
I can speak to my soul only when the two of us are off exploring deserts or cities or mountains or roads. — Paulo Coelho
Afoot and light-hearted I take to the open road. Healthy, free, the world before me. The long brown path before me leading me wherever I choose. — Walt Whitman
• Anthony Bourdain Travel Quotes
If you’re twenty-two, physically fit, hungry to learn and be better, I urge you to travel – as far and as widely as possible. Sleep on floors if you have to. Find out how other people live and eat and cook. Learn from them – wherever you go.
Travel changes you. As you move through this life and this world you change things slightly, you leave marks behind, however small. And in return, life — and travel — leaves marks on you. Most of the time, those marks — on your body or on your heart — are beautiful. Often, though, they hurt.
It’s an irritating reality that many places and events defy description. Angkor Wat and Machu Picchu , for instance, seem to demand silence, like a love affair you can never talk about. For a while after, you fumble for words, trying vainly to assemble a private narrative, an explanation, a comfortable way to frame where you’ve been and what’s happened. In the end, you’re just happy you were there — with your eyes open — and lived to see it.
![tourism motivational quotes](https://theworldtravelguy.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/DSCF7530-4.jpg)
Travel is about the gorgeous feeling of teetering in the unknown.
I’m a big believer in winging it. I’m a big believer that you’re never going to find the perfect city travel experience or the perfect meal without a constant willingness to experience a bad one. Letting the happy accident happen is what a lot of vacation itineraries miss, I think, and I’m always trying to push people to allow those things to happen rather than stick to some rigid itinerary.
Do we really want to travel in hermetically sealed popemobiles through the rural provinces of France, Mexico and the Far East, eating only in Hard Rock Cafes and McDonalds? … I know what I want. I want it all. I want to try everything once.
![tourism motivational quotes](https://theworldtravelguy.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/DSCF3123.jpg)
It seems that the more places I see and experience, the bigger I realize the world to be. The more I become aware of, the more I realize how relatively little I know of it, how many places I have still to go, how much more there is to learn. Maybe that’s enlightenment enough – to know that there is no final resting place of the mind, no moment of smug clarity. Perhaps wisdom, at least for me, means realizing how small I am, and unwise, and how far I have yet to go.
I think food, culture, people and landscape are all absolutely inseparable.
Food is everything we are. It’s an extension of nationalist feeling, ethnic feeling, your personal history, your province, your region, your tribe, your grandma. It’s inseparable from those from the get-go.
Southeast Asia has a real grip on me. From the very first time I went there, it was a fulfillment of my childhood fantasies of the way travel should be.
![tourism motivational quotes](https://theworldtravelguy.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/DSCF5929.jpg)
I wanted adventures. I wanted to go up the Nung river to the heart of darkness in Cambodia . I wanted to ride out into a desert on camelback, sand and dunes in every direction, eat whole roasted lamb with my fingers. I wanted to kick snow off my boots in a Mafiya nightclub in Russia. I wanted to play with automatic weapons in Phnom Penh, recapture the past in a small oyster village in France, step into a seedy neon-lit pulqueria in rural Mexico. I wanted to run roadblocks in the middle of the night, blowing past angry militia with a handful of hurled Marlboro packs, experience fear, excitement, wonder. I wanted kicks – the kind of melodramatic thrills and chills I’d yearned for since childhood, the kind of adventure I’d found as a little boy in the pages of my Tintin comic books. I wanted to see the world – and I wanted the world to be just like the movies.
At this point I think my body is like an old car. Another dent ain’t gonna make a whole lot of difference. At best it’s a reminder that you’re still alive and lucky as hell. Another tattoo, another thing you did, another place you’ve been.
![tourism motivational quotes](https://theworldtravelguy.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/DSCF3021.jpg)
Without experimentation, a willingness to ask questions and try new things, we shall surely become static, repetitive, and moribund.
If I’m an advocate for anything, it’s to move. As far as you can, as much as you can. Across the ocean, or simply across the river. The extent to which you can walk in someone else’s shoes or at least eat their food, it’s a plus for everybody. Open your mind, get up off the couch, move.
Travel isn’t always pretty. It isn’t always comfortable. Sometimes it hurts, it even breaks your heart. But that’s okay. The journey changes you; it should change you. It leaves marks on your memory, on your consciousness, on your heart, and on your body. You take something with you. Hopefully, you leave something good behind.

95 most inspirational travel quotes ever penned
Our favourite inspirational travel quotes have encouraged us to travel with abandon over the years. Perhaps they will do the same for you…
For us, there is no such thing as luxury travel; travel is, by default, a luxury. It is a privilege provided by the country of our birth, a privilege that many are not as fortunate to enjoy.
Sometimes, we have to pinch ourselves at just how ridiculous our lives have become: an ex-teacher and jobbing writer travelling the world for a living. It is absurd, it is astonishing, it is luxury.
When I first went travelling at 21 years old, my father gave me this quote scrawled on a piece of card.
![tourism motivational quotes inspirational travel quotes](https://www.atlasandboots.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/“Twenty-years-from-now....Mark-Twain.jpg)
It infused me with wanderlust. It encouraged me to get out of my comfort zone, make the most of my time, see the world and enjoy the freedom that comes with being on the road. It remains one of the most inspirational travel quotes I’ve read (even if Twain did not actually say it).
Today, 20 years and almost 100 countries later, it’s still in my wallet. Despite its tattered and dishevelled appearance, it’s every bit as important to me now as it was then.
With that in mind, we’ve collated our most beloved inspirational travel quotes to encourage readers to “explore, dream and discover” for themselves.

Wherever you go becomes a part of you somehow is my favourite. It’s so true
I love travel quotes. They are so inspirational. Since I’m a solo traveller, #35 really resonates with me.
This is a hard one! Which would my favorite be…? I’m between my compatriot Rosalia de Castro and the unknown “Live your life by a compass, not a clock”. Thanks for sharing!
Wow, quote number one hit differently! Pieces of my heart have been left in nearly every place I’ve ever visited, any place I’ve ever made a memory with new or old friends.
“I’m in love with cities I’ve never been to and people I’ve never met.” I think that pretty much sums up why I’m driven to travel 😀 Great list!
Thanks for sharing these quotes! “Somewhere on your journey, don’t forget to turn around and enjoy the view.” is one that resonates with me most strongly. It is such an important reminder that sometimes when we’re traveling we need to put down our tour book and busy agenda and just stop to appreciate the new and exciting surroundings around us. Thanks for the reminder!
Absolutely! It’s easy to get swept up in all the “must sees” instead of what the destination is trying to show us!
Traveling is an adventure that comes with a breathtaking view is my favorite. Cant wait to travel again. Hope this pandemic ends soon
I completely love the first quote you mentioned!! I can see why you got it tattooed. After reading them all, the other one which stands out to me the most is the one about us being the foreigners!
So many beautiful quotes! I can’t wait to be able to travel again
Oh I just loved these quotes. Thanks for the great post!! I miss traveling so much!
Same here! Glad you enjoy them!
I love these! Thanks for sharing. 🙂
This is so inspirational! Love it!
Love these inspirational travel quotes! My favourite is number 11. It’s so true that a destination stays with you long after you leave it whether it’s a smell, a dish etc.
So many beautiful quotes! Love the positivity and inspiration during this crazy time we are in 🙂
So many great quotes, thanks for sharing. It reminds me of travel days.
This is a fantastic list of inspiring travel quotes! I’ve heard of most of them but also there a few that are new to me, so I really appreciate this! This one is one of my all time favorites –“Travel is not a reward for working, it’s education for living” – Anthony Bourdain
Thanks for including that one on this ultimate list!
Haha that’s my favorite reminder that work is just work. – Which (at least in America) is often forgotten.

The 100 Best Inspirational Travel Quotes to Spark Your Next Adventure

I was a voracious reader when I was growing up, typically reading two books a week on average.
My lower-middle class family didn’t have the money to do much in the way of traveling, outside of the occasional camping trip in North Georgia . Both my parents worked, and my dad worked multiple jobs to support his family of five.
The furthest we ever traveled was a trip to visit my godparents in Virginia when I was 14. So instead I read books about travel and adventure long before I had the financial means to start taking adventures of my own.
It was the written word that originally fueled my travel dreams, from Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island and Rudyard Kipling’s The Jungle Books to Ernest Hemingway’s The Old Man and the Sea .
It was through Henry David Thoreau’s Walden , John Muir’s Our National Parks , and Ralph Waldo Emerson’s Nature that I developed a passion for the environment. Without them, who knows if I would’ve become the advocate for ecotourism and wildlife conservation I am today.
And when I finally started traveling, the work of travel writers such as Jon Krakauer , Bill Bryson and Paul Theroux greatly influenced the way I did it.
But the first classic quote I remember having a significant impact on me came in the form of a Robert Frost poem: “Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— I took the one less traveled by. And that has made all the difference.” This idea influenced many of my choices, setting me on the path to becoming a full-time professional writer in my twenties.
For me, these inspirational travel quotes aren’t just words: They are the distillation of a philosophy that continues to drive my life and work today. I hope they will prove equally influential for you… –Bret Love; photos by Bret Love & Mary Gabbett

This is definitely one of the best travel quotes of all time, but it certainly reads true. One of our favorite travel quotes is “The World is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.
When you travel, the whole world opens up. Travel has helped us to understand the meaning of life and it has helped us become better people. Each time we travel, we see the world with new eyes. Just like reading a book, when you travel, you experience more than only one page of life. Make your life a novel, not a page.
2. “Not all those who wander are lost” ~ J.R.R. Tolkien
![tourism motivational quotes tourism motivational quotes](https://theplanetd.com/images/best-travel-quotes-jrr-tolkein.jpg)
This is one of our favorite travel quotes because it gets us. Throughout our lives, people have thought that because we keep traveling and searching for new things to do, we are not focused.
They have often thought we were flaky or unfocused. But travel helped us find our purpose and put focus into our lives. The more we got lost in our travels, the richer our lives became.
Seriously people, not all those who wander are lost. That’s a statement and a quote.
So when you think that the travelers in your life are flighty remember, “not all who wander are lost “

We need to give back to this world. People often feel they can take home a trophy, sneak a piece of stone from a historic site , or take something from nature.
Travel isn’t about taking, it is about absorbing the beauty of the world. So remember, sometimes only memories are all you need. They are your only private moments to enjoy. So try to take only memories.

27. “I always like to go to Washington D.C. It gives me a chance to visit my money.” ~ Bob Hope
![tourism motivational quotes bob hope funny travel quote](https://theplanetd.com/images/travel-quotes-washington-dc.jpg)
This one made me chuckle because we were just in Ottawa (Canada’s National Capital) and we made a point of saying “ Now we know where our taxes go, look at all the beautiful museums and buildings in this city! ”
And even though Bob Hope was talking about his home country of the USA, it certainly rings true anywhere. So, we put it in our best travel quotes list, because everyone can relate!
28. “Jet Lag is for Amateurs.” ~ Dick Clark
![tourism motivational quotes best travel quote | jet lag is for amateurs](https://theplanetd.com/images/travel-quotes-amateurs.jpg)
While I think it’s a funny travel quote, I tend to disagree with Dick Clark. It seems that the more I travel, the worse jet lag gets. But then I suck it up and think of him and then I say “Deal with it Deb, Jet Lag is for amateurs.” See, travel quotes can be motivating!
29. “Travel is glamorous only in retrospect.” ~ Paul Theroux
![tourism motivational quotes Travel is glamorous only in retrospect by Paul Theroux](https://theplanetd.com/images/travel-quote-travel-is-glamorous-only-in-retrospect.jpg)
I love this travel quote so much because it is very true. When we come home from our travels, we always forget the tough times and difficult experiences.
We only remember the beautiful things about our travels and the bad stuff fades away. But let me tell you, we’ve had some very unglamorous travels in our lives.

I am going to update this quote though and say Woman and Man Cannot discover new oceans until they lose sight of the shore.

But travel brings riches in life with experiences, learning, and making new friends.

When we saw the Taj Mahal for the first time, we had heard about it many times. We had read about it and people had told us all about it. But it wasn’t until we saw it that we really understand its beauty and meaning.
38. Wherever you go becomes a part of you somehow

Short Travel Quotes Captions
Dave and I have been gathering quotes about travel for 20 years and shared them since we started our travel blog in 2008. They have always helped to pick us up when we’re down, put life in perspective, or just brought a smile to our faces.
These are our favorite traveling quotes we’ve posted on social media from Twitter to Pinterest .
42. “Live with no excuses and travel with no regrets” ~ Oscar Wilde

![tourism motivational quotes The Road less Travelled travel Quotes We travel not to escape life but for life not to escape us](https://theplanetd.com/images/travel-quotes-escape-life.jpg)

44. “People don’t take trips, trips take people.” ~ John Steinbeck
![tourism motivational quotes Travel the World travel Quotes](https://theplanetd.com/images/Best-Travel-Quotes-trips-take-people.jpg)

45. “Don’t listen to what they say, go see” ~ Chinese Proverb
![tourism motivational quotes Travel quotes that are Inspirational](https://theplanetd.com/images/travel-quotes-go-see.jpg)
Perhaps people tell you not to go to a place because they think it is awful when it is really beautiful. Or perhaps someone constantly tells you how wonderful a destination is.
Go and see for yourself and make up your own mind. That’s what this says to me.
46. “Don’t Quit Your Day Dream”
![tourism motivational quotes Travel quotes | Be inspired by this list of the most inspiring quotes of all time](https://theplanetd.com/images/travel-quotes-daydream.jpg)
One of my favorite quotes about wanderlust. One of the things Dave and I are most thankful for is the fact that we never stopped dreaming.
If we settled (like we were supposed to in life) we’d still be working at our jobs thinking we weren’t allowed to have dreams once we reached a certain age. Never stop dreaming.
47. “I don’t know where I’m going, but I’m on my way”
![tourism motivational quotes Travel quotes | Be inspired by this list of the most inspiring quotes of all time](https://theplanetd.com/images/travel-quotes-dont-know-where-im-going.jpg)

48. “Oh, the places you’ll go.” ~ Dr Seuss
![tourism motivational quotes best travel quotes dr suess oh the places you'll go](https://theplanetd.com/images/Best-Travel-Quotes-dr-seuss.jpg)
It’s a short one, but oh it’s a good one. Whenever we meet someone that is starting to travel or is thinking of traveling, we always think of this quote by Dr. Suess.
These words make us think of adventure. Oh the Places You’ll Go! Doesn’t this make you excited to get out and explore thw world?
49. “Try to Be a Rainbow in Someone Else’s Cloud” ~ Maya Angelou
50. “life’s a journey, not a destination” ~aerosmith.
![tourism motivational quotes traveling quotes | lifes a journey not a destination](https://theplanetd.com/images/funny-traveling-quotes-3.jpg)
Okay so maybe Ralph Waldo Emerson deserves the credit for Life is a journey, not a destination, but we heard it first through Aerosmith, so I’m giving it to Aerosmith. Because I couldn’t find the proof anyway.
I’ll never forget being in Vietnam in 2003 and while sitting in a bar, they encouraged travelers to write their favorite quotes on its wall.
What did Dave choose? Life’s a journey, not a destination naturally. We have always lived by this motto and of course adventure is for everyone.
51. “Where to next?”
![tourism motivational quotes best travel quotes where next](https://theplanetd.com/images/Best-Travel-Quotes-where-to-next.jpg)

52. “To Travel is to Live” ~ Hans Christian Anderson
![tourism motivational quotes Travel Quotes - To Travel is to Live by Hans Christian Anderson](https://theplanetd.com/images/travel-quotes-hans-christian-anderson.jpg)
Why does this travel quote resonate so much with us? Before we traveled, we felt that we never truly lived. The more we worked, the more exhausted and disconnected we felt. When we introduced travel into our lives, we felt alive again.
53. “I want to make memories all over the world”
![tourism motivational quotes I want to make memories all over the world best travel quotes](https://theplanetd.com/images/travel-quotes-memories.jpg)
To us, memories mean more than things. When we are out with friends, we have so much to talk about. It’s way more meaningful to have a memory to share than to show off a “thing.”

It’s impossible to truly understand a place until you have met the people, and immersed in the culture.

Dave and I were on the road for seven solid years. We didn’t have a home. People often said to us that they couldn’t imagine not having a home base, but we felt at home on the road. We actually felt more at home on the road than at home.

Travel far, travel wide, and let your soul be your guide.”
Fantastic collection of travel quotes! Every single word goes well with the picture they’re pasted over. It is tough to say which one is the best travel quote.
Hi Dave and Deb,
I absolutely loved your article about the ultimate travel quotes! As someone who is always on the lookout for inspiration to travel, reading through these quotes made me feel excited and motivated to plan my next adventure. I especially loved the quote by Ibn Battuta that says “Traveling—it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller.” It perfectly captures the transformative power of travel and how it can change us in so many positive ways.
Overall, your article was beautifully written and showcased a diverse range of travel quotes that were both inspiring and thought-provoking.
great article.. and the quotes were really inspiring.. i loved them.. thanks for the quotes.. i literally took snaps from my phone and kept it safe for captions when i travel and post..

I was searching for the best traveling quotes, and I came across your blog and read a few of them. Really, I like them all. It will be helpful for writing Instagram captions. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for a ‘Wonderful article’, so many reasons given to ‘make smiling a habit’!
“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness.”. Can add this too 🙂
It was nice to go through your post. Thanks for sharing the beautiful quotes here. Keep up the good work. https://www.cakesandbakes.in/stories/category/customized-cakes/
It would be great if the pandemic ended soon so I could travel again for adventures. Thank you for sharing your quotes.
Your quotes is one of the best quotes that i have seen. specially number 90 which is “you only live once,but if you do it right ,once is enough” is best. Thanks to you for sharing such a nice things.
Great! Thanks for sharing really
Hi, Dave and Deb really I appreciate your creativity. Fantastic writing. Thanks
My favourite: You travel to see things and visit places – but what you remember when you come back home is the people you met…..
Who said so?
Great Words
I was looking for the best quotes for travelling and after getting your blog, I read some quotes. Really i like these all quotes. It will be helpful to me for write Instagram caption. Good job and keep sharing!
Wonderful collection
I was hoping the pandemic will end up so I can free travel again for adventure. Thanks a lot for sharing your collection qoutes.
Thanks for the travel quotes. I’m going to save some and print them out. My favorite is like a lot of people here. Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all. This year has proven that. We can’t sit around all day and be happy. Let’s make it an adventure.
My choices for the best travel quotes are: Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all Travel makes one modest you see what a tiny place you occupy in the world. The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page
Great travel quotes, although I don’t get this one… The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes. Does travel give you new eyes or do you have to have your eyes open before traveling? Hmm, things to think about.
These really are inspirational travel quotes. I love this one by Anthony Bourdain. “Travel isn’t always pretty. It isn’t always comfortable. Sometimes it hurts, it even breaks your heart. But that’s okay. The journey changes you; it should change you. It leaves marks on your memory, on your consciousness, on your heart, and on your body. You take something with you. Hopefully, you leave something good behind.”
These are the best travel quotes I’ve seen! What a list! And thank you for the pictures. This phrase “Travel makes one modest, you see what a tiny place you occupy in the world.” Really puts it all into perspective. When you travel (really travel, not as a tourist) you understand that you are not the center of the universe. And I agree travel really does make you richer. Thanks
Wow! What a list of inspirational travel quotes. I’m going to print these off to get motivated and start saving for travels. Here’s to traveling the world! My favourites are Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all Travel makes one modest, you see what a tiny place you occupy in the world Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore But I agree with you, it should be “people”
Thanks for the inspiration with these travel quotes. I am looking forward to traveling again!
Amazing list of travel quotes!! Truly inspiring. Keep up the great work!!
Those are amazing travel quotes, thanks for sharing! My favourite is “Once a year, go someplace you’ve never been before” by the Dalai Lama. May I share your picture of it on my social media? Of course, I’d mention that it belongs to you. Thanks and have a great day?
These are beautiful words to live by. Experience life and adventure.
Loved it: “KEEP YOUR FACE ALWAYS TOWARD THE SUNSHINE – AND SHADOWS WILL FALL BEHIND YOU.”
Congrats on the article and keep it updated! Love the one of: “Travel…the best way to be lost and found at the same time.” Travel is a mix of feeling with sometimes the fear of get lose but feeling free at the same time.
I wish you all a good holidays/travels for this 2021, if pandemics let us for sure! Keeping healthy is priority
Really amazing post on travel quotes, thanks for sharing these lovely quotes. And this particular quote “Doing what you like is freedom, liking what you do is happiness.” is the perfect example of happiness. Please keep sharing these types of posts. Thanks once again

Great article had fun reading it anyway my personal fav is “It’s good to have an end to journey toward; but it is the journey that matters in the end”
I love that quote. It’s short and sweet and right to the point. I always find that it is the journey that can be life changing and that offers me the most inspirations.
My travels should be the freedom of your dreams…!!!
Thanks for sharing! I hadn’t heard this travel quote before! Cheers.
I love seeing the combinations of quotes matched with photos. I really should do this with a lot of our travel photos so I have something to look at and continually motivate me to keep adventuring and taking the path less followed.
Thanks! We actually had these travel quotes in a vault for years before finally posting them into one article. We used to share daily travel quotes on Instagram and Twitter and then a few years ago we decided that one comprehensive post would be a better idea. So we rounded them up and put them in. Quotes really are great motivators.
Yup, I agree, these quotes are nothing but brilliant.
Love it. Would save a few on my notebook, so that it can be a source of inspiration for me when I am actually traveling and need some inspirational juice.
Love this blog, may come back later to read other parts 🙂
Thanks so much for the kind words. I love having quotes handy for inspiration. Especially in these trying times. I used to keep sticky notes posted around the house for motivation. I think I’m going to have to do that again now that we are home more often (at least for a bit:)
This is another awesome post with loads of inspiring travel quotes. Thanks. 🙂
Thanks so much! We appreciate the kind words. Do you have a favourite? Or do you have any unique travel quotes to share? We always love finding new ones to inspire.
We have nothing to lose and a word to see!.
I love this! I assume that is “world to see?’. It’s another fantastic short travel quote that is completely to the point. Thanks for sharing.
wow!! It’s was quite overwhelming to read all these travel quotes. some of them which got stuck to my mind are- i) “THE MOST BEAUTIFUL IN THE WORLD IS, OF COURSE, THE WORLD ITSELF.” – WALLACE STEVENS ii)“TRAVELING ALLOWS YOU TO BECOME SO MANY DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF YOURSELF.” iii)“I HAVE FOUND OUT THAT THERE AIN’T NO SURER WAY TO FIND OUT WHETHER YOU LIKE PEOPLE OR HATE THEM THAN TO TRAVEL WITH THEM.” ~ MARK TWAIN iv) “TWENTY YEARS FROM NOW YOU WILL BE MORE DISAPPOINTED BY THE THINGS YOU DIDN’T DO THAN BY THE ONES YOU DID DO” ~ H. JACKSON BROWN JR
Those are fantastic! My favourite is “I HAVE FOUND OUT THAT THERE AIN’T NO SURER WAY TO FIND OUT WHETHER YOU LIKE PEOPLE OR HATE THEM THAN TO TRAVEL WITH THEM.” ~ MARK TWAIN” We have found this out first hand in our travels and there is no truer travel quote 😀
Didn’t see this one above but it’s one of my favorites and from a very well traveled Nat Geo photographer:
“Ibn Battuta never dwells on what drove him on.
Curiosity? Perhaps . . . More likely it was a quest for knowledge.
One never seduced by a foreign culture cannot appreciate the fetters of his own. Life, after all, is a journey – a voyage of discovery.
Why not take the high road?”
Thomas Abercrombie, National Geographic
Thanks for sharing, that’s a great message. I love finding new words of wisdom.
travel makes your mind opened wider than before dudes. so, let’s go to explore
Is that your own quote? I love it. It’s perfect, straightforward and bang on. Thanks for sharing.
My favourite quote isn’t above. “The Journey Is the Destination” Sorry, I don’t know the source. Jules (46 countries and still counting.)
Congratulations on the wonderful travels Jules! I love that quote too. I remember Aerosmith sang “Life’s a journey not a destination” and that always stuck with me as well. It is a very wise phrase.
I have really loved all the quotes, they speak into our lives. Thank you so much.
Thank you! I am glad that you scrolled through them all. All the best to you!

Gustave Flaubert Travel makes one modest, you see what a tiny place you occupy in the world.
A 19th-century French novelist from Rouen, Gustave Flaubert (December 12, 1821 – May 8, 1880) was considered a leading mover in realism within French literature. He's best known for his 1857 novel Madame Bovary , a portrayal of bourgeois life, which was tried by the French government on the grounds of alleged immorality – Flaubert narrowly escaped conviction.

Mark Twain Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness.
Samuel Langhorne Clemens (that's right, Mark Twain was a pseudonym) was a novelist, journalist, humourist and lecturer born in Florida, Missouri, USA on November 30, 1835 (and died April 21, 1910, Redding, Connecticut). He became famous for his travel narratives such as The Innocents Abroad (1869) and for his novels The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1876) and follow-up, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1885). In Hartford, Connecticut, the Mark Twain House awaits your visit to learn more about the author.

Henry Miller One's destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things.
Henry Miller was a 20th-century American writer (December 26, 1891 – June 9, 1980) who spent a large portion of his career in Paris, France. His works are based on his own life and experiences which later became characterised as fictionalised autobiography, and include Tropic of Cancer (1934), Tropic of Capricorn (1939) and Black Spring (1936). His books often had explicit and obscene content which led the way for other American writers, but also resulted in both Tropic of Cancer and Tropic of Capricorn getting banned in the US for nearly three decades.
![tourism motivational quotes](https://deih43ym53wif.cloudfront.net/quote_shutterstock_198755885_6c16a6d362.jpg)
D.H. Lawrence When we get out of the glass bottle of our ego and when we escape like the squirrels in the cage of our personality and get into the forest again, we shall shiver with cold and fright. But things will happen to us so that we don't know ourselves. Cool, unlying life will rush in.
David Herbert Lawrence (11 September 1885 – 2 March 1930) was an English writer and poet. He's most famous for his novel Lady Chatterley's Lover (1928), a reflection of the state of modern society under relentless industrialisation, which faced years of criticism and legal pushback for its explicit sexual content when such language was still considered taboo. D.H. Lawrence also wrote poems, plays, essays, travel books and more, making him one of the most distinguished writers of his day.
![tourism motivational quotes](https://deih43ym53wif.cloudfront.net/quote-shutterstock_1777921967.jpg_4f11130433.jpg)
George Bernard Shaw I dislike feeling at home when I am abroad.
Born in Dublin, George Bernard Shaw (26 July 1856 – 2 November 1950) was an Irish playwright, literary critic, comic dramatist and political activist for socialism. So impressive were his contributions that he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1925, but he refused the prize money (he had no desire for public honours). He was highly influential across generations for his wit and intelligent critiques.
Dagobert D. Runes People travel to faraway places to watch, in fascination, the kind of people they ignore at home.
Dagobert David Runes (January 6, 1902 – September 24, 1982) was a philosopher and author born in Zastavna, Bukovina, Austro-Hungary (now in Ukraine), emigrating to the USA in 1926. He spoke at least nine languages fluently and was friends with Albert Einstein. His most significant legacy is arguably the founding of the Philosophical Library in 1941, a US publisher specialising in philosophy, psychology, religion and history.
![tourism motivational quotes](https://deih43ym53wif.cloudfront.net/quote-shutterstock_1071492125.jpg_c7ccb79360.jpg)
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart A man of ordinary talent will always be ordinary, whether he travels or not; but a man of superior talent will go to pieces if he remains forever in the same place.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, baptised as Johannes Chrysostomus Wolfgangus Theophilus Mozart, (27 January 1756 – 5 December 1791) was an influential and highly acclaimed Austrian musical composer of the classical era. Some of his most famous compositions include the Piano Concerto No. 23, Symphony No. 41 and Requiem, among many, many others. The Mozart House in Vienna is the only former home of Mozart in Vienna that has been preserved and today serves as a museum.

Henry David Thoreau Not until we are lost do we begin to understand ourselves.
Henry David Thoreau was an American essayist, poet, philosopher and naturalist, who started his career writing nature poetry under the mentorship and friendship of Ralph Waldo Emerson. He's one of America's most famous writers, most known for his book Walden (1854), which he wrote during a two-year stay on Walden Pond, Concord, Massachusetts, living a simple life in a home he built for himself.

Aldous Huxley For the born traveller, travelling is a besetting vice. Like other vices, it is imperious, demanding its victim's time, money, energy and the sacrifice of comfort.
Aldous Leonard Huxley (26 July 1894 – 22 November 1963) was an English author, critic and philosopher famous for writing one of the most highly acclaimed novels of all time, Brave New World (1932), which became a base for dystopian science fiction for future writers.
Benjamin Disraeli Like all great travellers, I have seen more than I remember, and remember more than I have seen.
Benjamin Disraeli (21 December 1804 – 19 April 1881) was a British Prime Minister (twice) and novelist who played a central role in the formation of the modern Conservative Party.

I used to think all quotes were cliché. People would always mention them like overused pieces of advice to throw their wisdom at people. The thing is, all the quotes you keep hearing over and over don’t resonate with you. You need to find phrases that will inspire your heart and motivate your mind. You have to keep the ones that you can relate to and discard the ones you disagree with. Now I use quotes as an inspiring way to tell someone to follow their dreams.
As cliché as it sounds, life is short. Even if you always say that you want to travel, time gradually creeps up on you. So I hope that my favorite travel quotes will make you want to travel today because now is the time to pursue your travel goals.
In a hurry? Pin this post for later!

Your body will collide with the earth and you will bear witness. In this way you will be compelled to grapple with the limitless kindness and bottomless cruelty of humankind – and perhaps realize that you yourself are capable of both. This will change you.

So that you can come back. So that you can see the place you came from with new eyes and extra colors. And the people there see you differently, too. Coming back to where you started is not the same as never leaving.” ― Terry Pratchett 78. “What you’ve done becomes the judge of what you’re going to do — especially in other people’s minds.
