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.

Not truer words have been said about packing. The best way to travel is to travel light. You can always buy something if you forgot it or need it, but seriously, chances are you probably won’t.

    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.

  15. 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.”

    Reply
  16. 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

  28. 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?”
