Frequently asked questions
What types of travel do you specialize in?
Katie specializes in luxury, wellness, and adventure travel—curating retreats, getaways, and custom trips that balance comfort with authenticity.
Do you only plan international travel?
No, Katie designs both domestic U.S. and international experiences, with a focus on unique stays and local culture.
How much does it cost to work with a travel agent?
In many cases, it costs you nothing extra to work with Katie. Through her preferred travel partners, she’s able to access exclusive pricing, perks, and upgrades that often make your trip the same price, or even less, than booking online, while adding layers of support and luxury you wouldn’t otherwise receive.
Katie’s Signature Service—“Your Journey, Your Way” offers two levels of support:
Always Included ($0): Personalized planning, preferred partner perks, pre-travel review calls, and post-travel follow-up—all included at no cost.
Gold Service (starting at $45 per trip): Adds VIP-level support with 24/7 assistance while you travel, loyalty program management, rebooking help, and full concierge service from start to finish.
While some complex itineraries may include a planning fee, clients are often “credited back” in the form of complimentary upgrades, exclusive amenities, or savings that would normally cost extra—making her expertise not just valuable, but often cost-neutral or even cost-saving.
