Hi! We are Amanda and Scott or as we like to say “Mannings on the Move”. We are so glad you found us! We are passionate about helping you see the world, whether it be through our eyes (this website) or in person yourself. Over the past 10 years, we’ve been planning and taking trips that have only fueled our desire to keep exploring.

What kind of trips you ask? All kinds! From short weekend trips in the PNW to a bucket list cruise to Antarctica. Between the two of us, we’ve been to 28 countries, 7 continents, 63 national parks and all 50 states in the USA. We consider ourselves ‘mid-range budget’ travelers that prioritize activities when booking a trip. What does that mean? Click below to find out.

We’re excited about what’s next! Make sure to follow @mannings_on_the_move on Instagram to see what we’re up to.

“Once you travelled, 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

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”

Mark Twain

“I am well again. I came to life in the cools winds and crystal waters of the mountains.”

John Muir

“Travel makes one modest. You see what a tiny place you occupy in the world.”

Gustauve Flaubert

“Traveling. It leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller.”

Ibn Battuta

“To travel is to live.”

Hans Christian Andersen

“The mountains are calling and I must go.”

John Muir

“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.”
