Mari was great!   She was incredibly knowledgeable, organized, and "tuned in" to the interests and needs of each individual, as well as the group.   Every day Mari shared her passion for the Galapagos Islands, its wildlife and its people and often engaged us in thoughtful, often humorous, evening conversations.   

Mari was an exceptionally knowledgeable guide. She was professional and attentive to the interests of the individuals in our group. For example, if one person was interested in seeing a particular species, she went out of her way to try to locate it. She has great skills in keeping the group interested and engaged in the current activity, and again went out of her way to try to meet the needs of all of the group members. Her knowledge of the ecosystem, history, and flora and fauna of each island of the Galapagos was astounishing. She shared her knowledge eagerly and her enthusiasm for her work was apparent to all. Thanks for a great tour!

Mari was everything I wanted in a guide: extremely knowledgeable, patient, funny and professional.
