Kate McCarthy

Videre Travel

Evanston, Illinois

The summers of Kate’s youth were spent on road trips across the US with her family, visiting countless national parks and recreation areas to enjoy the outdoors. Post college, her love for travel deepened following her first international trip to Thailand where she spent a year teaching English and traveling the country.

While her home base is currently just north of Chicago, you will rarely find Kate and her husband at home. Instead, they are off enjoying city outings, hiking and camping throughout the Midwest, jetting away for long weekends, or sharing weeks abroad exploring new cultures, tasting local dishes, and viewing natural wonders. Whether home or away, their next adventure is never far!

With a Master’s degree in Special Education, Kate fully appreciates that everyone learns and engages with the world differently, making unique individualized itineraries her specialty and she looks forward to sharing that with all of her clients!

  • Most Memorable Travel Experience: As a solo traveler in Southeast Asia, meeting and becoming friends with locals that guided me in exploring their country, not as a tourist but as a member of the community is one of my most memorable travel experiences!
  • Travel Tip: Try something new every trip! You may just surprise yourself. :)
  • How Do You Define Luxury Travel? Luxury is customization- moving beyond a one-size-fits-all itinerary to experiences that are uniquely curated for each person and family.
