• 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.

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.

• Inspirational Travel Quotes

Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all. — Helen Keller

Come back and you’re going to see your country differently, you’re going to see your president differently, no matter who it is. — Henry Rollins

Because in the end, you won’t remember the time you spent working in an office or mowing your lawn. Climb that damn mountain. — Jack Kerouac

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.

A long stretch of road will teach you more about yourself than a hundred years of quiet. — Patrick Rothfuss

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

• 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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Travel With Friends Quotes – 42 Epic Quotes About Travelling With Friends!

Posted on Last updated: January 8, 2022

Like most people, I love cheesy travel quotes. Especially when I’m at home dreaming of travelling, I love reading inspirational travel quotes, especially if paired with epic travel photos.

My favourites are usually the cute ones about forming friendships and relationships on the road. Which is why I put together a compilation of all the best travel with friends quotes!

This post is full of quotes that are all dedicated to the beauty of travelling with your mates.

Whether you’re looking for a cute travel buddies quote for your next Instagram photo, or an inspirational quote to reflect on your last trip, here you will probably find it.

Short travel buddies quotes

I thought I’d start this post nice and easy, with some of my favourite short quotes about travelling with friends.

1. “ Sometimes all you need is a great friend and a tank of gas .” – Thelma & Louise  

This is also one of my favourite road trip quotes. It perfectly sums up the essence of going on a road trip with your mates (I definitely felt that way while on a road trip in Australia !)

2. “ A journey is best measured in friends rather than miles. ” – Tim Cahill

3. “ There is an unspoken bond you create with the friends you travel with. ” – Kristen Sarah

4. “ Together is our favourite place to be. ” – Unknown

5. “ Good company in a journey makes the way seem shorter. ” – Izaak Walton

I can totally relate to this quote, especially when on a really long flight or drive (btw, make sure to have all your long flight essentials packed before your trip!)

6. “ Good times and tan lines. ” – Unknown

I use this beach quote quite a lot to caption my beach photos!

7. “ Travel is better with friends .” – Unknown

Admittedly, what isn’t?

Memorable quotes about making friends on the road

These are my favourite travel and friendship quotes.

Meeting new people on the road is one of the best things about travelling, so it’s only fair that there would be so many memorable quotes about it (there are also many epic quotes about solo travel !)

8. “ We are all travellers in the wilderness of the world, and the best we can find in our travels is an honest friend. ” – Robert Louis Stevenson

9. “ The fastest way to make a friend for life is to travel with a stranger ” – Unknown

It might sound crazy but I actually agree with this!

I met my friend and fellow blogger Hanna of Solar Powered Blonde in Marrakech , four months later we ended up travelling together for two months to Sri Lanka , Thailand and the Philippines , and it was one of the best trips of my life!

Everywhere we went people thought we had known each other for years. It’s a friendship I will always cherish, made all the stronger by the bond we formed while travelling.

10. “ There are no strangers here; only friends you haven’t met yet .” – William Butler Yeats

11. “ A friend may be waiting behind a stranger’s face. ” – Maya Angelou

12. “ One of the great things about travel is that you find out how many good, kind people there are. ” – Edith Wharton

At a time when every day that we turn on the TV we only see bad news, this is extremely true. Sometimes we can’t travel and have to unfortunately only try travel experiences at home , but it’s important to remember the real thing.

Getting out there will show you just how kind people can be. I found this to be very true especially in Japan , where even if they didn’t speak English, people always went out of their way to help.

13. “ The more I traveled, the more I realized fear makes strangers of people who should be friends. ” – Shirley MacLaine

14. “ It’s the friends we meet along the way that help us appreciate the journey. ” – Unknown

This is also one of my favourite travel quotes !

15. “ We are travellers on a cosmic journey, stardust, swirling and dancing in the eddies and whirlpools of infinity. Life is eternal. We have stopped for a moment to encounter each other, to meet, to love, to share. This is a precious moment. It is a little parenthesis in eternity. ” – Paul Coelho

16. “ We all start as strangers .” – Unknown

17. “ In life, it’s not where you go – it’s who you travel with. ” – Charles M. Schulz

18. “Happiness is hiking with friends.”  –  Unknown

If you love hiking, you will love these quotes about hiking ! 

19. “ Sometimes all you need is a great friend and thirst for adventure. ” – Unknown

20. “ Life was meant for good friends and great adventures. ” – Unknown

21. “ Friends, sun, sand, and sea – that sounds like a summer to me. ” – Unknown

Growing up I spent all my summers in Sardinia , and the above quote perfectly captures the essence of those summers to me. Sardinia also features in some beautiful quotes about Italy .

22. “ Take memories, leave only footprints. ” – Unknown

23. “ Life by the water is always better, especially with a few good friends in tow. ” – Unknown 

I couldn’t agree more with this quote. I have always been drawn to beach destinations and have a firm belief the sea cures all bad moods. It’s part of the reason I moved to Tenerife !

Funny quotes about travelling with friends

After the deep motivational quotes, it’s time for some funny ones! After all, travelling with friends is always fun, and it’s only fair that these travel quotes reflect that.

24. “ 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

Travel is the ultimate relationship test! If you can survive a trip with someone, you can rest assured that you will get along fine from then on. If you don’t survive the trip together, they weren’t your person anyway!

25. “ It was us against the world. ” – Burnell Glanzer

26. “ You can pack for every occasion, but a good friend will always be the best thing you could bring! ” – Unknown

27. “ And if I am not alone, then neither are you, and hand in hand we can marvel together at the strangeness of the human condition. ” – Stephen Fry

I find this to be a great reminder! It can be easy to feel like you’re alone and no one understands you, but if there is one good thing that came out of social media is it’s help in bringing the world closer.

28. “ Never go on trips with anyone you do not love. ” – Ernest Hemingway

29. “ No road is too long with good company .” – Turkish proverb

Adventure with friends quotes

Is there anything better than going on an adventure with your mates? These adventure quotes are specific to living your travel bucket list with your friends.  

30. “ As soon as I saw you, I knew a grand adventure was about to happen. ” – Winnie The Pooh  

31. “ Sharing adventures means enjoying them 100% more. ” – Unknown

32. “ Everyone needs this friend that calls and says; ‘Get dressed, we’re going on an adventure! ’” – Unknown

I’ll admit I’m that friend. I will regularly call my friends and say things like, “ Hey, fancy a road trip to Portugal this summer ?” but the crucial thing is knowing which friends will answer “ Sure! Why not ?”

33. “ A good friend listens to your adventures. Your best friend makes them with you. ” – Unknown

34. “ Good times and crazy friends make the best memories. ” – Unknown

35. “ When you get lost in a really strange place, nothing is more comforting than finding your friend whom you trust and can show the way. ” – Toba Beta

As Anthony Bourdain said in an epic travel TV show , travel isn’t always easy or comfortable, and when it goes wrong, having a friend with you will make it much more bearable.

Inspirational quotes about travelling with friends

I couldn’t help but end this compilation with some inspirational quotes, that will leave you thinking and ready to call up your friends and purchase a flight! (Btw, do you know how to find the cheapest flight deals ?)

36. “ As with any journey, who you travel with is more important than the destination. ” – Unknown

37. “ The best things in life are the people we love, the places we’ve been, and the memories we’ve made along the way. ” – Unknown

38. “ If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go further, go together. ” – African proverb

39. “ I still believe in paradise. But now at least I know it’s not some place you can look for. Because it’s not where you go. It’s how you feel for a moment in your life when you’re a part of something. And if you find that moment… it lasts forever. ” – Alex Garland, The Beach

I guess this one isn’t explicitly about travelling with your mates, but it is about making connections on the road.

It’s from one of the most epic travel movies (inspired on an awesome travel book ), which inspired me (and many others like me) to visit Thailand !

40. “ Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry, but by demonstrating that all people cry, laugh, eat, worry, and die, it can introduce the idea that if we try and understand each other, we may even become friends. ” – Maya Angelou

41. “ I get a friend to travel with me… I need somebody to bring me back to who I am. It’s hard to be alone. ” – Leonardo di Caprio

I feel like I've seen this list before?  If not then I've definitely read most of the quotes before.  I'm such a sucker for quotes, I even have a quote app on my phone.

There’s lots of travel quote lists out there, these are just my favorite ones ;)

I've not come across a lot of these quotes before like Elle has. My favourite one from the list is "5. Do no follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail. Ralph Waldo Emerson"

Oh Yea, that’s a good one :)

These are good quotes,  I like 6, 18, 34, 40 and 42.

So glad you read and picked your favorites!

2 is my favorite and one that I live by. 

I love these, especially 18 and 31. Also ha ha to number 16. I always think of Uncle Traveling Matt's song from Fraggle Rock as inspirational for travelers. "Every sunrise shows me more and more/ So much to explore/ Come and follow me", etc.

So funny, I used to watch Fraggle Rock all the time!

Loved the list.. so inspiring ?

56 travel together quotes for friends and loved ones

By: Author Sylvia

Posted on Last updated: February 21, 2024

Are you looking for the best travel together quotes? You came to the right place.

I’m the sort of person who doesn’t like to travel alone.

Although I always hear from people who travel alone that it is super fun because you get to know a lot more new people, it is not for me. For me, nothing is more fun than traveling together.

Therefore we made an overview of the best quotes about traveling together.

But traveling together doesn’t always mean you should travel with your partner.  Traveling with friends or with your best friend can also be lots of fun.

That’s why besides travel together quotes we also include couple travel quotes, couple adventure quotes, travel partner quotes, travel companion quotes, quotes on traveling with friends, and travel buddy quotes.

There is a really good chance that this post contains affiliate links. If you click one of them, we may receive a small commission (for which we are deeply grateful) at no extra cost to you.

Couple travel quotes 

We start off with a collection of the best couple travel-together quotes. You must admit, what is more, beautiful than to travel with your loved one.

1.  “It doesn’t matter where you are going, it’s who you have beside you.” –  Anonymous 

I partly agree with this quote. Whom you travel with is super important.  You could be in an epic destination and your company could ruin the complete experience. 

The opposite is true as well, an evening in a subpar guesthouse could turn into one of the most memorable experiences if you make some new friends.

We are fortunate to have already seen a lot of wonderful things like Antarctica, Japan , India , Alaska , etc.

Because of this, the destination has become somewhat more important for us.

Unfortunately, it seems that the more you travel, the harder it gets to get that wow-feeling. That’s why we now focus more on unique experiences instead of merely visiting places.

For example, I have been dreaming of a dog sledding trip in Lapland for years and spotting gorilla’s in Africa is also on my list.

Hopefully, we can scratch those items from our bucket list in the near future.

We will see what the future will bring.

2. “Life has taught us that love does not consist in gazing at each other, but in looking together in the same direction.” – Antoine Desaint-Exupery

In a long-term relationship, I think it is extremely important to have the same opinion about the important issues and to have the noses in the same direction on these issues. That makes having a long-term relationship much easier.

And it helps if your ideas about traveling are the same. 

When we just met I had planned a trip around some African countries with a tent. 

I still remember how relieved Kris was that, when I came back after spending 3 weeks in a tent, I admitted that I would appreciate somewhat more comfort on our next trips. 😊

3. “Our goal is to run out of pages in our passports.”

I think this is a nice goal, but to be honest, we will have a lot of work to get our passport full.

Now that it is valid for 10 years, who know, we may succeed.

Have you already got your passport filled out?

4. “In Life, It’s Not Where You Go, It’s Who You Travel With.” –   Charles Schulz

I completely agree with this travel quote. Kris and I have already made many beautiful trips to eg Korea , Borneo , India and much more.

And despite the fact that these are beautiful destinations, it is always more special to share this together with Kris.

Read also: Where to go in Europe in winter. 

After all, we have always made the most special memories together and without his presence, those trips would be less special.

The following quote fits in nicely with this.

5. “I want to travel the world with you.”

I think, as someone who is addicted to traveling, that this is really a romantic quote.  This is one of the most romantic things someone can say to me.

6. “Let’s travel together and get lost in beautiful places.”

We like nothing more than to wander through small streets and supposedly get lost. This is how we usually discover the nicest spots.

The best travel with friends quotes

7. “Never go on trips with anyone you do not love.” – Ernest Hemingway

Some people say that taking a vacation is the best way to get to know each other. And just as I agree with this quote, I think they are right.

When you’re going on a journey together, and certainly when you go to a somewhat adventurous destination, you can sometimes face surprises. 

Discover things about each other that you didn’t know yet and didn’t expect.  Some positives and some negatives.

With your loved ones you will manage to see through some of the annoyances but we’re sometimes reluctant to go on a trip with our friends because we’re afraid it would cause trouble in our friendship. 

Then again, your trips with your friends can also bring you closer together.

Vacations cost money and you should be sure that you get to enjoy them. 

That’s why I agree with this travel quote and I only take my loved ones and best friends with whom I’m sure I will have a good time.

8.   “I just want to hold your hand and wander the streets with you.”

Sometimes, even when we’re on a holiday, we tend to impose a schedule on ourselves.  It’s almost as if we are at work.  An hour to visit the first site, 20 minutes to rush to the next, a quick picture, and on to the next sight.

Yet it feels so good letting go of time and plans!

We both really enjoy just heading to a neighborhood and wandering around, holding hands, like a romantic couple just watching daily life.

9.  “ I would like to travel the world with you twice. Once, to see the world. Twice to see the way you see the world.”

10. “I want to travel the world with you, go to every country, every city, take pictures and be happy.”

I think this is certainly a romantic idea for a bucket list. Although we have traveled already a lot an visited many amazing places such as the Azores , Lisbon , Rajasthan, and Kerala in India , Borneo , Korea , Japan and much more.

Unfortunately, there are far too many countries and places in the world and it is absolutely impossible to do them all in one lifetime.

So as it usually goes in life, we should make choices. I certainly want to discover the Azores , Hawaii, Iceland, Namibia, The Philippines and so on.

Which countries are still on your bucket list?

11. “Let’s find some beautiful place to get lost together.”

And there are so many beautiful places to discover. I do not know how it is for you but for every destination that we can scratch off our bucket list, we add at least 2 new destinations.

As much as I love the idea of spending some months in one location it would be really hard to choose.  We have seen so many beautiful places already…

12.  “Will you give me yourself? Will you come to travel with me? Shall we stick by each other as long as we live?” – Walt Whitman

This quote could definitely be used for me as a marriage proposal. I would certainly say yes if the right person asks me to marry him with these words. 

Marriage is a lifelong journey in itself, with ups and downs.  The journeys we did together only brought us closer together.

We have been married now for several years.  Kris didn’t ask me with these exact romantic words but I said yes anyway. 😍

13. “Here’s to all the places we went. And here’s to all the places we’ll go. And here’s to me, whispering again and again and again and again: I love you” – John Green.

This is the perfect quote to toast on with your loved one.

14. “Love is being with you anywhere.”

Certainly true for me.  I love nothing more than discovering new places with Kris.

15. “Go the distance, couples who travel together are more likely to stay together and feel more connected.” – Anonymous

This quote absolutely refers to us. By discovering new destinations and doing things together, our relationship remains fascinating. What about you?

16. “I would gladly live out of a suitcase if it meant I could see the world with you.”

I do not fully agree with this quote. No matter how much I love to travel, always living from my suitcase is nothing for me. I am always happy to go back home after a trip.

17. “I want to laugh often, feel love, have a lot of insanely dirty sex and travel the world with you.”

18.  “some souls just understand each other upon meeting” – n.r hart.

With some people, it clicks from the first moment you meet them. I remember the first time I met Kris.

We met through common friends and it immediately clicked. We also immediately had a common topic.

The whole evening we only spoke about traveling. Meanwhile, we are more than 10 years further and travel is still something we can not stop talking about.

19. “A journey is like marriage. The certain way to be wrong is to think you control it.” –  John Steinbeck

This is true in a way.  We do prepare our trips quite extensively and always have a very good idea about what we’re going to do,  but we still need to change our plans sometimes. 

Unexpected things interfere with our plans, sometimes for the good. 

Because of some of the hiccups we have encountered we met interesting people we would not otherwise have met and we discovered beautiful places that we would not have known existed.

20. “Take that person and travel around the world. Buy a plane ticket for the two of you to travel all around the world and go to places that are hard to get to and hard to get out of. And when you come back… and if you’re still in love with that person… get married at the airport.”– Bill Murray

I think this is very good advice.

Only when you leave your comfort zone you can really experience who your partner is, how you both react to certain situations and whether you are suitable for each other.

21. “That is why best trips like best love affairs, never really end.” – Pico Iyer

Your best trips don’t end with the flight back home.  Several years later we still reminisce great stories about our journeys together over dinner. 

When we’re out with friends we have good laughs about the funny things we encountered during our trips and when we look at the pictures we imagine ourselves being back there. 

The memories of your best travels will stay with you for a lifetime.

22. “Fifty years from now, when you’re looking back at your life, don’t you want to be able to say you had the guts to get in the car?” -Sam Witwicky

23. “home is not where you are from, it is where you belong. some of us travel the whole world to find it. others, find it in a person.” – beau taplin, adventure couple quotes .

Here’s a list of the best adventure quotes for couples we came across during our journeys. I’m a person who gets quickly bored.

I’m always looking for new things to do and new adventures to experience. 

And nothing is more fun than undertaking these adventures with your partner.

24. “Date someone who is a home and an adventure all at once.”

In my opinion, it keeps the relationship fascinating.

25. “Maybe it won’t work out. But maybe seeing if it does will be the best adventure ever.”

I think this quote applies to everyone who starts a relationship. It is always a bit of a step into the unknown and, unfortunately, often it doesn’t work out.

They say you have to kiss a lot of frogs before you meet your prince. And this is absolutely true.

Sometimes, however, it becomes the greatest adventure of your life. 

So if you are single and you get the chance to start a relationship, do not hesitate and go for it.

That first date may be the start of the most beautiful adventure of your life.

26. “As soon as I saw you I knew a grand adventure was about to happen.”- A.A. Milne

I can still vividly remember how on the evening we met, and again on our first date, we both talked passionately about all the destinations we had seen. 

It was so much fun to exchange those stories. 

We did of course talk about other things as well but those travel stories made us dream about all the adventures that we could still do together.

27. “Let’s go on an adventure. I’ll make some sandwiches and a flask of tea, we’ll get out walking boots on and get lost somewhere.”

We find nothing more fun than putting on our walking shoes during the weekend and going out to explore.

28. “I’ve fallen in love with adventures, so I begin to wonder if that’s why I’ve fallen for you.” – E.Grin

29.  “actually, the best gift you could have given her was a lifetime of adventures.” –  lewis carroll.

This quote definitely refers to me. You can not give me a better present than enough variety and adventure in life.

30.  “Why should a relationship mean settling down? Wait for someone who won’t let life escape you, who’ll challenge you and drive you towards your dreams. Someone spontaneous who you can get lost in the world with. A relationship, with the right person, is a release, not a restriction.” –  Beau Taplin

I certainly found someone like that with Kris. And you, have you already found someone who challenges you and drives you to your dreams?

31. “What we find in a soulmate is not something wild to tame, but something wild to run with.” – Robert Brauld

32. “you keep me safe, i’ll keep you wild.”.

33. “Oh darling, let’s be adventurers.”

This is a quote that absolutely suits me.

As a child, I always wanted to become an explorer.

And although we now like to travel in a comfortable way, there is nothing more fun than to undertake new adventures.

34. “We must take adventures in order to know where we truly belong.”

Everywhere we go we wonder how it would be to live there.  Sometimes we just try to imagine it by watching daily life. 

But in our opinion, the best way to find out is to engage in conversations with locals in pubs.  This is so much fun and we even created some new friends doing this. 

Sometimes our opinion about a particular city changes completely after we have spoken with the residents. 

And despite the fact that we’re annoyed by many things in our home country (the sky-high taxes just to name one thing), it is often only when we travel that we value certain aspects of our home country more.

35. “If happiness is the goal, and it should be, then adventure should be a top priority.” – Richard Branson

I am, as I  said already, someone who gets bored very quickly. So I need variety and new things to make me happy. What about you?

Travel partner quotes 

I still have keen memories of some of the trips I took with my best friends back in college. 

Traveling is so much fun and being able to share it with your best friends makes it even better.

Years later we still feel connected by those fun and crazy adventures that we have experienced together.

So here we share the best travel partner quotes, travel with friends quotes and get-together quotes.

36. “Friends are as companions on a journey, who ought to aid each other to persevere in the road to a happier life.” —  Pythagoras

It is so important to have good friends who support you when you have a hard time but also share and celebrate your successes when you’re on a roll.

37. “In the end, what you do isn’t going to be nearly as interesting or important as who you do it with.” — John Green

I agree completely with this quote. 

I do need some time for myself from time to time, but when it comes to going out, it’s so much more fun when you’re in good company.

And that goes for many things.  It’s always much more fun to share the good things in life with somebody else whom you care about, and who cares about you.

That’s why it is so important to find a great travel companion with which it really clicks and with which you share the same interest.

38. “Surround yourself with people who make you hungry for life, touch your heart, and nourish your soul.”

It is so necessary to surround yourself with people who believe in you and who see a better version of yourself than you see. Only in this way can you grow.

39. “When traveling with someone, take large doses of patience and tolerance with your morning coffee.” – Helen Hayes

A very wise quote. Even though you may be best friends, and you may share the same interests in daily life, it is possible that you have a completely different idea about a vacation.

You may be someone who is up early, excited about the new adventures that are coming and who is out and about all day long. 

Your travel partner may not get so excited about an active vacation and would rather relax by the pool.

This is an example with extreme opposites, a situation that is not likely to occur, but possibly over the course of your vacation, some small habits of your travel partner may start to annoy you.

Making some good arrangements in advance and showing the necessary understanding for each other will bring you a whole lot further.

40. “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

Unfortunately, I have heard this from others and even personally experienced it.

I will not go into details here, but that holiday together was almost the end of our friendship. 

So there is certainly truth in this quote from Mark Twain.

41. Everyone needs a friend who will call, and say, ‘Get dressed, we’re going on an adventure.” — Unknown

Sometimes spontaneous decisions result in the best experiences!

42.“Sometimes all you need is a great friend and thirst for adventure.”

When you have the feeling that life is boring and all days look-alike, a good friend and some sense of adventure can definitely change that. 

Let go of control and have your friend take you on an adventure.

43. “The most beautiful things in life are not things. They’re people and places, memories, and pictures. They’re feelings and moments, and smiles and laughter.” — Unknown

It’s sad to see that we are increasingly evolving towards a materialistic society. Brands want us to believe that we will be happier with a bigger house, a bigger car, and a more expensive watch. 

But the most beautiful things in life aren’t bought with money.

Enjoying a beautiful sunrise, and spending a pleasant evening with good friends. These are things that do not cost money but are priceless.

44. “Don’t tell me how educated you are, tell me how much you traveled.” – Mohammed

I’m not saying you should quit school early to do a world tour but I did learn a lot from my trips around the world.  

There are so many things that you can not learn from books. 

You only completely understand them once you have experienced them yourself. 

I do believe the world would be a better place if everybody traveled more and showed real interest in the places they were going.  Connecting with the people and being open-minded about their culture, beliefs and habits.

The best travel buddy quotes

Last but not least, below we share the best travel buddy quotes.

45. “A good friend listens to your adventures. A best friend makes them with you.” — Unknown

46. “life was meant to great adventure and close friends.”.

Adventure and good friends are very important to me.  I always feel good when I’m surrounded by my best friends. Adventures keep life exciting and when you can enjoy them with good friends they’re twice as fun.

The best travel proverbs

47. “There is a whole world out there. Pack your backpack, your best friend and go.”

Although we have exchanged our backpack for a suitcase a long time ago, this is certainly a quote that still applies to us. There are still so many destinations on our bucket list and there is so much to discover.

So we regularly pack our suitcase and we are gone.

What’s your next destination?

48. “Life is about doing things that don’t suck with people who don’t suck.”

This is a straight-to-the-point quote. Maybe it can be better expressed but it is entirely right.

49. “We are all travelers in the wilderness of the world & the best we can find in our travels is an honest friend.” – Robert Louis Stevenson

Friendships are so important. Everyone should have at least one sincere friend to share successes and failures with.

50. “Be careful whom you make memories with. Those things can last a lifetime.” – Ugo Eze

Nothing is more beautiful than reminiscing about things that you have experienced together. 

Most often the person you have experienced it with is just as important as what you did. 

The real profound memories create a bond for life.

Looking back at those great moments that you enjoyed together with your friends, acquaintances and family members will not only give you a good feeling, it will also reinforce the bond you have with each other.

51. “Good company in a journey makes the way seem shorter.” – Izaak Walton

I am fortunate that I can travel together with Kris and even though I hear from solo travelers how great it is to travel alone and how many cool and interesting people they meet.

Yet I would not want it any other way.

After all, nothing is more fun than to experience unforgettable things such as spotting a tiger or seeing a beautiful sunset together with your partner.

It is always more fun to be able to share experiences with someone else.  It makes the memory for me more beautiful.

But if you aren’t in good company I do think that good music and a good book will also help to kill time.

52. “I get a friend to travel with me… I need somebody to bring me back to who I am. It’s hard to be alone.” – Leonardo DiCaprio

53. “you and me, we are more than friends. we are like a small travel gang”.

I think this is such a nice travel buddy quote and I would love to be a member of such a travel gang with which I could regularly discover a new destination. I think it’s a lot of fun.

How about you?

54. “A journey is best measured in friends rather than miles.” – Tim Cahill

55. “travel only with thy equals or thy betters; if there are none, travel alone.” – the dhammapada.

I do agree with this quote when it concerns my daily life.  I believe that you become like the persons you spend the most time with.  So I like to spend time with people that are positive and at least equal or better than me.

But I don’t yet see myself traveling alone.  I met people who are really enthusiastic about it but it would be a big step for me. I have not tried it yet, so maybe I’ll change my mind once I’ve done it.

56. “Friends that travel together, stay together.”

Or they argue so much during their holiday that the friendship is partly over after it. 😆 But I firmly believe that if the journey is a success this will strengthen the friendship that already existed. 

That is why it is so important to make good arrangements in advance, you don’t want to risk losing a friend over a vacation.

I really enjoyed writing this article.  It brought back many good memories, both to the journeys I did with Kris and the ones I did with my friends.

I’m sure you will be able to cheer up your travel buddy or travel partner with one of these quotes if he or she is in a bad spot. 

Or you could use them to surprise them and show how much you appreciate their friendship.

And don’t forget to keep your travel partner adventurous, because he or she will do the same for you.

I hope that you enjoyed reading these travel together quotes as much as I enjoyed writing them.

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.

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.

Quotes That Define Travel

1.”Traveling is a brutality. It forces you to trust strangers and to lose sight of all that familiar comfort of home and friends. You are constantly off balance. Nothing is yours except the essential things—air, sleep, dreams, the sea, the sky—all things tending towards the eternal or what we imagine of it.” -Cesare Pavese

2. “Traveling is like flirting with life. It’s like saying, ‘I would stay and love you, but I have to go; this is my station.’” -Lisa St. Aubin de Teran

How Travel Defines Us

4. “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

5. “So much of who we are is where we have been.” -William Langewiesche

10. “We travel not to escape life, but for life not to escape us.” -Robyn Yong

11. “We travel initially to lose ourselves; and we travel next to find ourselves. We travel to open our hearts and eyes and learn more about the world than our newspapers will accommodate.

And we travel, in essence, to become young fools again—to slow time down and get taken in, and fall in love once more.” -Patrick Rothfuss

15. “I travel because I’d rather look back at my life, saying ‘I can’t believe I did that’ instead of ‘If only I had…’” -Florine Bos

16. “I need to move around a bit. To shuffle my surroundings. To wake up in cities I don’t know my way around and have conversations in languages I cannot entirely comprehend. There is always this tremendous longing in my heart to be lost, to be someplace else, to be far far away from all of this.” -Beau Taplin

We were made to move

56. “Anybody who travels knows that you’re not really doing so in order to move around—you’re traveling in order to be moved.

Inspirational travel quotes to fill your sails.

There are key phrases you pass through when planning a trip. First, your wanderlust grows into a pang you can’t ignore. You put a budget together and decide it’s finally time to get going. You start planning, and excitement builds … but then, you look over the crest of your euphoria and see the downward plunge of the roller coaster pre-departure loose ends.

If you’re traveling to a different country and don’t speak the language, for example, you suddenly wonder, how well will you navigate signs? You also start asking, will your budget be enough?

Family travel quotes—from touching to “touché.”

Traveling with family conjures a special kind of magic. There are few people in the world who can annoy us so much, and yet we still adore them. That makes traveling together a seesaw of going nuts and having the time of our lives.

Your role on a family trip changes over time, from the backseat of the car on family trips as a kid to the adult who treats Mom and Dad to a flight somewhere fantastic. There are elements of family travel that never change, though. There’s always a moment when you’re begrudgingly awake but together at the crack of dawn. There are evenings when no one realizes it’s time to call it a night. There are photo-ops galore, and always more memories made than you could count.

Family travel quotes bottle that magic into something you can use in a card or letter , post on Instagram , or to keep in your head—just like the memories you make.

Not every trip has to be exotic or flashy for Instagram. Often, it’s more important just to be together and have fun.

Donna Hedges

Having family to travel with is also the best reason to never say never to a dream trip or destination.

Travel quotes for couples with a shared sense of adventure.

Would you take a trip with a new partner to get to know one another? Would you take a trip to shake things up after years of daily routines? Maybe you already travel with your partner, and these famous citations are the travel love quotes that define your chemistry.

Whatever your case, traveling as a couple creates shared experiences that are unforgettable.

Go catch the sun with these superb travel quotes for couples. Pick your favorites to use as social media banners , Instagram posts , and cards or letters to family and friends. You’ll want to document the next adventure every way you can.

Ernest Hemingway

Travel is wonderful, but it’s also stressful. Travel is insightful for couples as well as individually, because your partner will see you in every state.

Samuel Johnson

This thought-provoking travel quote is also true of your romantic relationship. Use travel to anchor the reality of your relationship—because it will expose how things really are.

If you’re in a long-term relationship and haven’t felt excited about life at home recently, travel as a couple can act as a defibrillator of excitement.

Make this a rule for a romantic relationship, and the benefits will compound year-over-year.

A.A. Milne, Winnie the Pooh

When you meet that special someone and discover you both love travel, the future before you glows with exciting possibilities.

Anita Desai

Wherever you go together becomes part of your relationship, too. Reflect on that together after a trip as a couple.

Travel with a partner can be scary, but that can also mean it’s something to try.

Travel with friends quotes to caption photos, fill collages, and inspire more trips.

Road trips after graduation, backpacking to learn a language, and trips to find yourself alongside your best friend can become the stuff of legends.

It’s fun to jump on the bandwagon, too, when a friend is going somewhere and you want to tag along. Travel with friends is that easy—if you share a passion for adventure, taking a trip together gives you a sense of familiarity that contrasts in an unforgettable way with the new places you experience together.

Choose your favorites of these quotes about traveling with friends, and they can serve as the perfect captions for your Instagram stories along the way.

Shirley MacLaine

Travel with friends makes better friends of those you travel with, and offers the opportunity to make new friends in unlikely places, too.

Leonardo DiCaprio

One of the best parts about traveling with friends is the time together without other distractions.

Crestless Wave

Are you “that friend?” If you aren’t, you should become that friend’s co-pilot.

Turkish proverb

Another benefit to traveling with friends is having company during the pleasant and the tough parts of a trip. No airport layover feels quite as long with a good friend by your side.

Charles M. Schulz

Sometimes, it’s hardly about the destination. It’s about the time spent together and the memories made.

The next time any friend of yours says “travel,” you should say, “let’s go.” Put this on a poster and keep it in sight as a reminder.

Marcel Proust

Experiencing and discovering places through your friends’ eyes opens yours to new perspectives, too.

Travel alone quotes for the bona fide adventurers.

Traveling alone is for true adventurers. Not only do those who travel alone often choose destinations off the beaten path, they also venture into new aspects of themselves on the way.

Travel alone quotes highlight the value of spending time solo and they celebrate the full control over every aspect of a trip when it’s yours. They send us off with affirming “safe travel” quotes, and they’re perfect for banners and flyers at a bon voyage party, too.

Choose your favorite travel quotes about solo journeys, then make them your own. They’ll quickly inspire your next adventure.

When you travel alone, you don’t have to wait for anyone. Use this travel quote on a poster to encourage you to take any adventure you dream up.

J.R.R. Tolkien

Not all who wander are lonely, either. Traveling alone is the favorite way to travel for some people.

David Mitchell

Consider journaling or writing letters to friends and family while you travel so you can capture things you learn about yourself along the way.

William Langewiesche

Some places and some trips we have to experience solo for them to form us the way they ought to.

Antoine de St. Exupery

Sometimes, that means traveling light on company, too.

Neale Donald Walsch

If traveling alone seems like a stretch for you, that’s more reason to do it.

Matthew Karsten

This is a great message to put on a flyer for any kind of travel offer, especially if it supports solo travelers.

Tips when using quotes about travel.

Where can you use travel quotes? The short answer is “anywhere.” For the travel quotes that are so good you just have to share them, think about:

• Cards — use travel quotes in cards to send quick messages packed with feeling.
• Letters — when you write letters to friends and family during a trip, travel quotes act as a view into the adventure you’re living.
• Posters — use travel quotes on posters for a constant source of inspiration.
• Banners — string your favorite travel quotes on banners to hang for a bon voyage party.
• Collages — one perfect travel quote in the center of a collage of vacation photos is always fun.
• Flyers — use travel quotes on flyers that promote different kinds of travel, upcoming trips, or travel resources.
• Instagram posts — for photos, reels, and carousels, a travel quote in an Instagram post can add context.
• Instagram stories — for the fleeting moments on a trip you just have to share, Instagram stories are always improved with a good travel quote.

75 best friend quotes that capture your unbreakable bond

You might remember this classic rhyme from your childhood: “Make new friends, but keep the old. One is silver and the other gold.”

Having a best friend is a rare and precious gift. Whether you were childhood playmates or connected later in life , it's likely that your best friend has been by your side since the day you met.

They've been there to support you through life's biggest moments, from breakups to new jobs, and they're always ready to cheer you up with some words of wisdom or a well-timed quip.

Your best friend knows you inside and out — flaws and all — and still loves you for exactly who you are. Whether you grew up with someone by your side and plan to be best friends forever, or you  just met and feel like you have already known them for a lifetime , spending time with friends can bring out our inner children and refresh the soul. These  bonds should be cherished  and nurtured consistently. 

Despite that unbreakable bond, it can be difficult to carve out time to see even our closest pals. If you and your bestie live in different places , there are so many ways to show your BFF how much you cherish them.

One of the best ways to connect with your friends? Simply talk to them. The words that you say to your besties ( especially the long-distance ones ) carry weight and meaning. Whether you like to send them best friend songs with meaningful lyrics or you text your bestie daily to remind them how much they mean to you, what you say can make a difference.

Even though there is so much that we  want  to tell our friends, it can often be difficult to put our feelings into words. So we’ve rounded up some best friend quotes to make the process a little bit easier!
