Anne Marie Perry planned & organized my April 2017 land-based travel arrangements in Mali, Guinea, and Burkina Faso. She is originally from Guinea, speaks English fluently, & knows these countries very well. She was absolutely outstanding, unfailingly helpful & responsive to all my requests, communicated clearly & regularly about my arrangements, ensured that I knew exactly what to expect, & went way "above and beyond" to help me time and again. I cannot praise her highly enough! In fact when I couldn't find a local guide & driver for Burkina Faso (after many tries),I asked Anne Marie for help, though it was not her area of expertise.  She contacted her sister Kadi in Ouagadougou, who became my wonderful guide & also made all my local arrangements. In each of these countries Anne Marie arranged an excellent support team for me -- an English-speaking guide plus car & driver who met me at the airport, took me all around, helped me see & experience as much as possible in the short few days I spent in each country, and returned me safely to the airport.  My support teams (Boucoume & Jenabou in Mali, Bato Dore in Guinea, & Kadi in Burkina Faso) were all wonderfully helpful -- welcoming and prompt, always on time, knowledgeable & helpful, plus kind, cheerful & pleasant.  I was extremely fortunate to connect with Anne Marie to make all my land-based arrangements in these 3 "non-tourist" West African destinations.  I highly recommend her (& her great support team members) to any traveler who needs dependable, responsive and reasonably-priced travel support in these 3 countries.   Mary Levering, Washington, DC, USA
