Marina was very helpful throughout the process. From our intial call through the last day of our trip, she was always available to help.
Marina was communicative and responsive throughout. After I missed two scheduled phone calls in a row due to time zone challenges, we decided to just arrange everything via email and it worked great. Perfect English. She helped us explore Barcelona, refugios and hiking loops in a Pyrenees NP, and arrange fly fishing options for us well. Great value for those like me that wanted to pull together a last minute trip and needed help with recommendations, reservations, etc.
Marina helped us plan an amazing adventure in the Pyrenees. With her advice we were easily able to make all of our own arrangements for transit and lodging.
Marina put together a hiking trip for us in the Spanish Pyrennes. She knows the area so well and help us to whittle down all the info out there to find the best 5 day hike for us. She spent a lot of time listening to our needs and desires. The trip she put together was fab.

We had avery good and helpfull experience with Marina. Our son and his group (18 years old)planned to go to a trek in a trek named:trassvers de 3 refuges,with no experience of going on a long 5 days trek .we desided to call marina and we had a zoom conversation were all the 8 boys were listening too . Marina xplained us the route step by step .many tips and a list of equipment.she stayed in connection all the time for questions on email and through the trek too. We,the mothers,were worried ,but once we talked with her ,it calmed us very much. We recommand that anyone who needs any help and guiding will talk to Marina.!!!She is very kind and gives accurate information:))))

We bought the map to be able to locate places of interest on our trip through Catalonia and Andorra. Easy, practical and truly very useful. We have discovered spectacular restaurants, accommodations and activities. An essential map for every traveler. Good job ! UnexpectedCatalonia 👌

We had an amazing video chat with Marina! She explained us about Costa Brava and specifically about what we want to do (which is diving and travelling). Without her help we would have been a bit lost. Highly recommended for who wants to plan their trip in Catalonia :)
