50+ Funny Travel Memes
They say laughter is good for the soul and I try to find humor every day. It makes the day go by easier and life’s too short to be serious 24/7. Sometimes I feel like a comedian but for now, I’ll stay in my created comedic traveler bubble. 🙂
Here are a few funny travel memes that I’ve created or come across over the years on social media that sparked conversation and a few laughs. There is a funny travel meme for every type of travel situation.
Baecation Memes
Some of us choose to travel over dating. Some of us have hilarious stories from baecations. Here are a few memes about traveling with or with a significant other.
This one was sparked after seeing several people talk about fly outs and sponsored Dubai trips. I also was still frustrated by traveling with someone I thought I knew (not a bae) but I didn’t know at all and in the end, cost me a ton of money and a friendship. When I created the travel bae application/Travel buddy, now available in digital format, I always knew I wanted my future partner to love travel so here’s an easy way to vet them. I reposted this at a later date and asked the WHTW Squad what questions they would add. In general, most people agreed they want someone to travel with and needed this “application” to hand out to prospects.

It depends on the destination and who had the idea for the trip. If it’s a destination I picked, I’m partner 1. If I’m just along for the fun I’m partner 2.
Funny travel memes about group travel vs solo travel
Unless it’s a baecation or my close friend. I prefer solo trips. I don’t even listen to people when they make comments about wanting to join me. Usually when it’s time to go they are nowhere to be found. Some will even go through the act of inquiring on pricing just to flake.
Does anyone else have people ask about joining your trip and then ghost you? The minute you post about the trip they are shocked you went without them? Ahem, just a friendly reminder.
You will be left behind. I’m not afraid of solo trips.
If I had a dollar for every time someone said they were interested in the trip and then dragged their feet but pretend to be mad when they see me posting from a trip we discussed, I’d be rich! We’re all adults and I’m not chasing anyone around to travel with me (chase a check). I’m not afraid of solo travel. Check out “7 Reasons To Travel Solo!”

Restaurants aren’t the only place for an awkward response. I know I’m not the only one?

Funny travel memes about travel deals and travel hacks
In 2016, Arthur returned to our screens, not for the reason you think. Someone started “meme-ing” faces and gestures from the childhood show. It was only appropriate that I adapt Arthur’s fist to travel. The caption was not far fetched as I constantly receive invites to travel but during this time I was ready to save money and take a small break. A lot of people can identify with the struggle of wanting to buy every flight deal vs being responsible.
Ok this one may not be funny but I want to mention the misconception about travel is that you have to make a lot of money to be able to travel. I receive far more questions about where I work versus how I travel.👎👎 Read this article to to find out how I was able to book over 15 flights on points last year. How I fast track to high hotel statuses. How I’ve been able to travel so much and not accumulate debt and pay off student loans. How an airline financed my trip to Dubai. 😁 How I visited Cuba for under $300 for everything. How I use social media to pay for trips.
Hint. It’s not all credit cards or having a lot of money. I use various discounts and points for every aspect of the trip. Down to even getting into airport lounges at a discount.
Here is a link to all the travel discounts I use to travel without breaking the bank.

Funny travel memes about travel bloggers
In my early travel blogging days, my friends would give me crazy looks or roll their eyes (you know who you are) when I would take extra time to capture a shot or walk off and start narrating. Before we unpack I have to capture the room and take notes. Some friends were afraid I wasn’t enjoying the moment. As time progressed they got used to it and realize they benefit from my effort to produce great content.
Check out this article on the misconceptions of travel bloggers.
I will never forget this moment. 2 years later after my trip to Iceland. I still feel cheated! The Sponge Bob/Mr. Krabs confused “effect” on a photo describes how I felt while in Iceland. Posting this photo sparked engagement from others who missed the Northern Lights and created awareness that there are certain times in the year that you can see Northern Lights in Iceland. I made the mistake of hopping on a travel deal without knowing this.

Yes, Kirk Franklin broke the internet, well at least social media when he danced during a concert. The song he danced to was a mix of his “Melodies From Heaven” and “Crush On You” by rapper Lil’ Kim. I’m usually not a fan of mixing hip hop and gospel music together. However, this dance fits perfectly with how I feel when I’m about to go on vacation.

Every time I saw articles about how to spend a tax refund on travel, I did a huge eye roll. Maybe I could do a road trip with a refund. Typically if I receive a refund it goes to bills. If I had a few dependents maybe we could talk about how to travel on a refund. Since I don’t, listen to this wailing meme to understand my pain.
A few weeks ago Al Sharpton videos hit the timelines. I didn’t know he had lost so much weight. I guess if you got it, flaunt it? Well, the only way I could see myself working out against a desk while in business attire is if I have an upcoming trip.
These are a few of the memes I’ve created over the years. When I see something trending, I try to find ways to tie it into travel without offending people. That’s the fun part. Which meme is your favorite? Comment below!
