We Are Loving These Travel Tattoo Ideas For Your Next Big Adventure

If ever you need a reminder of some of the greatest adventures you’ve ever had, or a hint of some the future can hold, a travel tattoo is a symbol of your passion for seeing and appreciating the world in all its glory. While it’s a bit of a painful symbol, it’ll be one that will last forever. Here are 15 travel tattoo ideas we love that would look great for your next trip.

1. These Boots Were Made For Walking The World

Footprint tattoos are a reminder of your go-getting attitude, and the fact that you’re literally ready to go get to your next adventure. Leave a mark on yourself just as you hope to leave a mark on the earth.

2. And The Mountains Echoed

A mountain tattoo can be very gap-yah but it’s also a cute minimalist tattoo to get that will never go out of style. Pick your favourite ranges to get emblazoned on yourself.

3. Let The Compass Tell You Where To Go Next

Never lack direction again with a literal compass inked onto your body. North points to adventure.

4. Names Of Places And Places With Names

Tattoos are important because of the memories they hold. Why not get tattoos in the places you want to remember forever, of the places you want to remember forever? Just make sure to get some sort of review of the place first.

5. Skyscrapers and Cottages

Architecture is not just meant to be appreciated once in your lifetime. Take the memories of beautiful buildings with you on your adventures with tattoos of your favourite constructions.

6. And I Would Walk 500 Miles

18, 000 km from London to New Zealand? 10, 000 to Peru? If you’ve made the effort to travel all that way, commemorate your journeys by tattooing your mileage onto you, to know that you’re prepared to go however far to seek adventure.

7. I Fly Like Paper

Origami tattoos are fun and whimsical. If you don’t take yourself too seriously, these are great travel tattoos to get.

8. Caravan-Spotting

Get your favourite mode of transport etched onto your skin, whether that be a plane, train or a caravan. You’ll get to your next destination however you need to.

9. Catch Your Dreams

A beautifully drawn dream-catcher tattoo is a constant reminder that you are fully capable of achieving your dreams. If you want to explore the unknown, you can. All you gotta do is dream.

10. Exact Locations

Commemorate significant locations onto your skin. You can even pinpoint exactly where you plan on going next. This is one of the most sentimental travel tattoo ideas!

11. The World Is Your Oyster

A world map is an obvious one, but with a big enough canvas you can fill in the countries you’ve travelled to, like an extremely personalised scratch map!

12. Lines of Skylines

This one is one of my favourites. Get your home city inked onto you and you’ll never feel too far from home, no matter how far you travel.

13. Waving Flags

This is a great tattoo to build on the further your adventures go. You can stretch these out into sleeves if you’re planning tonnes of great adventures.

14. Tickets Please

‘Did you know I did a study abroad?’ Get tattoos of tickets to your favourite museums, galleries and sights as a permanent reminder of why you lust for wandering.
