Welcome to Jetsettery, a passion project born from our own love of immersive and enriching travel. We're Katie and David Walter, newly empty nesters residing in the picturesque coastal town of Harpswell, Maine. With our daughters, Libby and Molly, now embarking on their own adventures, we're thrilled to channel our lifelong love for exploration into crafting extraordinary journeys for you.

Our own travel style is the very essence of what we offer: independent exploration that allows for immersion into the heart of each destination. We believe in truly understanding a culture and its history by venturing beyond the typical tourist trails. This often means seeking out charming boutique accommodations with tons of character, engaging in tours led by local experts, and FOOD! For us, no journey is complete without a deep dive into the local culinary scene which is why we dedicate time to researching exceptional restaurants, participating in vibrant food tours, and even taking hands-on cooking classes.

Our lives have been a tapestry woven with diverse experiences, from living across the United States and in England to traversing 52 countries across the globe. Through these adventures, we discovered not only the wonders of the world but also the immense joy in meticulously planning each step of the journey – a pleasure we often extended to crafting unforgettable trips for our friends. This deep-seated love for travel and planning sparked the creation of Jetsettery.
