Fourth amazing trip booked with Kate
Reviewed By ChefJYH - Chicago, IL | Traveled to Tanzania | Africa
Kate has been our go-to advisor for travel since 2018 when she booked us on a trip to Japan. This time, we were ready to go wild. It was a significant anniversary and we were joined by friends celebrating milestone birthdays. So we booked two weeks of safari and gorilla trekking. Naturally, we called Kate. Not only had she planned three other trips for us, but she's also gone to Africa several times. She explained what seasons were best for each part of the continent and asked our budget. We decided to visit Tanzania and Rwanda, the dates of our travel, then we left it all to Kate. She arranged transportation, lodging, safari guides, and meals. And we were blown away! Both countries are beautiful. On safari, we stayed in tented lodges right in the parks. We saw incredible wildlife- lions, giraffes, cheetahs, elephants, zebras, wildebeest, pumba, and one lonely rhino. Our guides were professional and went above and beyond to show us the best of their countries. Thanks, Kate, for making our trip so special and seamless. Can't wait to book trip #5 with you!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Trip of a Lifetime
Reviewed By AR - Libertyville, IL | Traveled to France | Europe
A big thank you to Kate Hutmacher for helping us plan a family vacation to France! From the beginning, she listened to what we wanted to do and had great suggestions to curate the trip. She was very communicative throughout the entire process. The entire trip was fantastic and everything went smoothly - hotels, cars, tours, trains, etc. I highly recommend Love Land & Sea and Kate!
