Moira Le Patourel2014
As a naturalist guide, Moira has spent countless hours observing and photographing wildlife in a natural setting. Maintaining a low impact on wildlife is paramount: observing, not disturbing, is a mantra she lives and guides by. Patience, respect and a solid understanding of animal ecology and behavior are her leading principles in the field. Moira recognizes that it is a privilege to be able to step foot into some of the world's most fragile ecosystems, and it is one she does not take lightly. She enjoys sharing her passion for wildlife, photography and the great outdoors with her guests, believing that a trip of a lifetime is made

What Our Guests Say
In all our years of traveling, which have been many, Moira has been the most outstanding guide we have ever had. She is everything you would want in an Expedition Leader: pleasant to be with, extremely knowledgeable and informative, and someone who takes exceptional care to make sure everyone is having an excellent experience! Moira is one of the best assets your company has!
Moira was absolutely exceptional. We were so impressed by her extensive knowledge (especially about all of the wildlife), boundless energy, glowing enthusiasm, constant patience, keen attention to details and sense of humor. She was able to predict and manage the needs and wants of every guest even before they knew what they were! Her organization skills, attentiveness and positivity were beyond superb. She is a true gem, and we were so fortunate to have her as our Expedition Leader.
Moira was absolute perfection. She has the knowledge and command of the biology and ecology involved to make this a learning experience for all. She also has a positive outlook and great people skills to help deal with the variety of guests on the trip. Her commitment to her job, the environment, the wildlife and the local community showed through in all her efforts to provide us with the most enjoyable, informative and broadening experience possible. She is an absolute treasure.
