About Me

Feeding an alpaca in the Negev
Feeding an alpaca in the Negev

Hi, I'm Katie MacQueen, the owner of Better Kate Than Never Adventures.

I specialize in helping busy professionals craft bucket-list vacations that feel both extraordinary and effortless.

Whether it's an intimate river cruise through Europe or a luxury safari in Africa, I’m here to handle all the logistics, so you can fully immerse yourself in the experience.

My passion for travel took off during my deployment with the Army to Iraq, where I saw firsthand how stepping into a new culture can completely change your perspective.

It reminded me of the Golden Age of Travel—when the journey itself was as thrilling as the destination. Back then, rail journeys, transatlantic crossings, and grand explorations were part of the adventure.

That same spirit of discovery fuels my approach today.

Did you know you can still ride the legendary Orient Express? Or that you can stand in the shadow of the Pyramids and feel the weight of history?

I believe travel is a powerful tool for understanding not only our world but also our place in it.

And because I believe everyone should have access to these life-changing experiences, I'm certified in accessibility travel through the Special Needs Group.

I want to ensure that no matter your mobility needs or limitations, the world is still yours to explore.

If your bucket list includes iconic destinations like Easter Island, the Amazon, or cruising the Mediterranean, let's make it happen.

Where will you go next?

What My Clients Say

Laura C: Excellent agent! Provided exactly the right amount of support for me and let me handle the things I wanted to! Plus, she checked in to make sure everything went well on my trip. Amazing service and a friendly face!

Carrie M: She knows her stuff. All I did was give her the date of our trip and what our goal was. We literally just brought our bag and she did the rest. The best part was I could call her the day of with stupid questions and she had answers for me. I will for sure be using her again for our family's first Disney trip in May. Thank you Katie for such a great, worry free experience.

Best trip of my life!
Reviewed By Jo Johnson - Milford, NJ | Traveled to Rome ~ Italy ~ Europe
It was the first time I had a totally pain free vacation. She Talked to us about what was really important to us and gave a lot of suggestions. When she found out that one of us was turning 70 and had seeing the pope on our bucket list she moved heaven and earth to get us tickets to an audience. Made the whole trip. From the moment we got the airport, all the extensions, the wonderful train trip to Venice from Rome, she was behind the scenes making sure everything went perfect. Both hotels were quant, well located, and a great price. We got complimentary full breakfasts at both hotels, people met us at each stop to make sure we got to the next stop ok. I couldn't find a single fault. I could swear she ordered uninterrupted sunshine in late October just for us.

Families very first vacation!
Reviewed By Carrie - Fairhaven | Traveled to Walt Disney World ~ Florida ~ USA
She really listened to what we wanted. And was able to plan an amazing trip that stayed well in our budget. Because of her knowledge and experience, my family didn't wait longer then 15 min in any line. It was so well planned that, once I got my family to the airport, I was able to relax. Everything was planned and coordinated perfectly. From the resort stay, to the fast passes and itineraries, it was just the best trip ever and I am planning my next trip asap.
