Egypt · Morocco · Beyond
Small-group adventures, unlocked by a true local expert.
Travel Egypt and Morocco with National Geographic Expert Gwyneth Talley — Arabic speaker, anthropologist, and 15-year North Africa resident. For the curious traveller who values comfort, pace, and real connection.
Why go with a guide
You've always wanted to see Egypt.
You've just never wanted to do it alone.
I hear it all the time: “I want to go — but not unless I know someone there.” I understand completely. Western Europe is easy. North Africa feels different. That's exactly why I'm here.
You want a connection, not a chaperone. Rick Steves is wonderful for the Louvre, but North Africa rewards a local who can peel back the layers. Whether you're a seasoned traveler or this is your first big adventure, I handle the logistics and the language — fluent Arabic — not just to keep you safe, but to get you closer to the culture, the people, and the moments you'd walk right past on your own. You bring the curiosity. I'll handle the rest.
What “handled” actually means:
- Vendors briefed before you arrive
- Tickets pre-bought — skip every line
- Days shaped around what you want to see
- A pace that breathes — never rushed

What People Are Saying
"WanderinGwyneth's Pickleball and Pyramids (January 2026) in Egypt was fabulous — everything I hoped it would be and more. The tour was perfectly planned and well organized. The pickleball at El Gouna, the pyramids, temples, burial chambers, Cairo, and the museums were all fascinating. Gwyneth was so much fun and so professional. I can't wait for my next WanderinGwyneth tour. Morocco, here I come!"
Karen Drevo | Retired Teacher, Crete, NE
"Our trip with WanderinGwyneth was so well organized that we were completely immersed for 12 days in the marvels of Egypt's historical sites, from Cairo to Aswan. We felt safe and comfortable throughout — thanks to Gwyneth's choices of places to visit, our personable drivers and guides, and her knowledge of Arabic. Abu Simbel and the GEM Museum were two of our favorites!"
Terri & James | Retired Couple, Lincoln, NE
"I traveled with WGA to Egypt in January 2026 and had an incredible experience. Gwyneth's ability to anticipate needs, address concerns, and communicate clearly is unsurpassed. From the moment I landed to the moment I boarded home, I felt like I was in great hands. We saw incredible historical sites, played pickleball with locals, and did an unforgettable food tour in Cairo — a true highlight of the trip. I cannot wait to travel with WGA again!"
