Meet the team

I am British and lived near Manchester most of my life working in UK and Global HR roles including being a consultant for the Charles Darwin Foundation. During the last 20 years, due to my roles and ‘wanderlust’ I have been lucky enough to have visited over 80 countries.

In 2011 my life changed, I met my now wife Maria Augusta in London and visited the Galapagos Islands for the first time, both left an indelible impression on me. Every day living on the islands is a blessing, being so close to nature, stunning landscapes and the Pacific Ocean. I love traveling, running, playing football, squash and DJing.

Since 2020 I have immersed myself in the Galapagos community supporting conservation and animal welfare goals with our Corporate Social Responsibility Partners. Locally these include the Pan Animalia Galapagos Foundation whom I am a board member for and Frente Insular RMG, whilst globally we support the Galapagos Conservation Trust and PlasticBusters.

As the General Manager living in Santa Cruz, I will be your main operational contact on the Galapagos. Please get in touch with me if you would like to know more about our experiences or would like help to plan a tailor-made sustainable 'experience as unique as you'.

I am a Galapaguenian living in this paradise where I grew up surrounded by sea lions, sea turtles, iguanas, amazing landscapes and friendly people.

I have been working as a Naturalist Guide in the Galapagos National Park since 2002 and I love to spend time with visitors to share time and experiences together.

Some of my favorite activities are snorkeling and scuba diving, The diverse and endemic marine life around the Galapagos Islands ensures that I enjoy every jump in this unique and magical world.

I am Ecuadorian and I have lived in the Galapagos Islands for the last 25 years. As well as being the CEO and an equal partner of Uniquely Galapagos, I am also the owner of the Galapagos Deli, Puerto Ayora, which opened in 2010. I enjoy travelling, photography, gardening, baking and painting when I have spare time but most of the time managing the Galapagos Deli keeps me busy. As the CEO my role is more strategic, helping the business obtain annual operating permissions and agreeing its future direction but also assisting guests when the General Manager is away from the Islands.

I am a dual USA/UK citizen, but I consider myself a world citizen. I'm a Polyglot who speaks Spanish, Portuguese, and French fluently in addition to my native English and have also learned Arabic, Japanese and Swahili. Currently, I'm learning Quechua, building community with the many indigenous people working in the Galapagos. I have a B.A in Latin American Studies from Swarthmore College, a M.A. in International Development rom the University of Geneva and a certificate in Film from the London Film School. I've published two photo books on wildlife and conservation tourism in Africa, and now focus on social media content creation to promote sustainable tourism. When I first visited the Galapagos, I was captivated by the wildlife, the ecosystem and the people. My passion is photography, and my goal is to help our guests connect with the unique spirit of the Galapagos through photography and communication. Apart from being a Galapagos Tour Leader, I am also the Regional Sales Manager for North America. Please feel free to contact me as below.

My name is Lenin Ampudia from Quito. I've been working as a local guide and tour director for over 20 years. I love it dearly and wouldn't change it for anything in the word. Count on me to discover the hidden secrets and treasures in Ecuador mainland.

Stefanie Schreyer is a tri-lingial naturalist guide specialized in the Galapagos Islands and is fluent in Spanish, German and English. She is a proud third-generation resident of the islands and enjoys sharing the wonders of Galapagos nature with visitors from all over the world. Her hobbies include hiking and snorkeling.

"As a lifelong resident of the North of England, I've developed a deep passion for sustainability. With nearly 15 years of experience in the field, I've helped numerous companies adopt more eco-friendly practices and minimize their environmental footprint. Living in a conservation area, I'm committed to giving back to my community. In my spare time, I volunteer for a local charity supporting a food bank and can often be found cleaning up our local park with my children. When I'm not advocating for a greener future, I enjoy exploring the outdoors through cycling, walking, baking, and photography." E-mail - This email address is being protected from spambots.
