About Me

Giraffe Manor - Nairobi, Kenya
Giraffe Manor - Nairobi, Kenya

Hi, I'm Betty Morgan, and I love to travel! From a young age, I've been captivated by the thrill of exploration.

At 18, I began my journey as a stewardess with TWA, immersing myself in the world of travel. This experience ignited a lifelong passion for discovering new places and cultures.

Over the years, I've had the privilege of visiting all seven continents, each offering unique experiences. From the ancient Pyramids of Egypt to the serene deserts of Morocco and the vibrant wildlife of Nepal, these adventures have enriched my understanding of the world. My favorite place to travel is Africa. 

I have traveled by land, by air, by sea and by train to many exciting destinations. I travel with a group of friends to a new place twice a year and come back home ready to share my experiences with you so that you can have a wonderful adventure too. 

With over 30 years in the travel industry, I specialize in crafting personalized journeys that cater to diverse interests and budgets. Whether you're seeking a relaxing beach vacation, an adventurous safari, or a cultural city tour, I'm here to help plan your perfect trip.

Let's turn your travel dreams into reality. Reach out, and together we'll create an unforgettable experience tailored just for you.

Creating Bespoke Experiences

As a travel adviser, I specialize in crafting exclusive custom private travel itineraries with the support of prestigious partners like Micato Safaris, Kensington Tours, and Journese.

With their expertise in luxury safaris, global destinations, and tropical getaways, I curate unforgettable journeys tailored to each client's preferences and interests. From intimate wildlife encounters in Africa to indulgent beach escapes, our collaborations ensure exceptional experiences that leave a lasting impression on travelers, creating cherished memories that will be treasured for a lifetime.

Dreams come true in Tahiti

Tahiti: A Luxury Escape Beyond Imagination

As a travel professional who has explored the world's most exclusive destinations, I can confidently say that Tahiti is nothing short of magical. From the moment I stepped off the plane, I knew this journey would be extraordinary. Our overwater bungalow at a five-star Sofitel Kia Ora Moorea Beach Resort was a sanctuary of pure indulgence....

Tahiti Anniversary
Hi Betty, I hope you are doing well. You probably don't remember me, but a few years ago, my husband and I were planning a trip to Moorea/Bora Bora, but we ended up having to cancel because my mother in law was diagnosed with cancer. You very kindly handled the cancellations, and we really appreciated your help. We are finally ready to reschedule our trip for the end of September 2026 or October 2026. I'm not sure if it is too early to start planning, but I saw this email and thought I would reach out to you. Please let me know if this is something you can help us with, and if so, when we should start planning.

Thanks for getting us home safe!
On October 6, my girlfriend and I flew from Istanbul to Tel Aviv, Israel, after our Long Beach Yacht tour organized by AMT travel. Betty Morgan, the owner of AMT travel, knew about our Israel plans. On Saturday, October 7, during a Jewish Holiday, Israel was attacked by Hamas, and war was declared. With cities filled with travelers trying to get home, Betty, even from Jordan, sent a concerned text. On Sunday, we got an email from Carole, her airline expert, who found us seats on the only airline still flying, El Al, for Monday afternoon. American Express who we did our flights with later confirmed the cancellation of our original flight. Despite spending 14 hours and seeking refuge in an airport bomb shelter, we made it to Athens, allowing us to catch our scheduled Wednesday flight home. Betty and Carole's assistance was invaluable. A personal relationship with trained travel experts is reassuring in times of need. Contact us to experience our dedication.

The Most Amazing Trip to Greece
It was amazing! Runa and I kept saying at every stop, “We love you Betty Morgan!” The accommodations were all in great locations and were all beautiful. We had great tour guides. The transitions from plane to hotel, hotel to ferry and ferry to hotels were well planned. We had one hiccup in Mykonos when we were taken to the wrong hotel from the ferry but it was quickly remedied after contacting Anthia. The order of visits starting in Athens (sightseeing, walking the city, restaurants) then Mykonos (pool relaxation, beach club, sunset cruise, restaurants) and ending in Santorini (wine, sightseeing, food) was perfect for us. Each location had it’s own appeal. I’m truly grateful for all your hard work organizing an amazing trip for us. It was the honeymoon we needed 14 years later. Now my wife has other trips in mind that she wants to organize with you. Like it or not, you have won our trust! I hope we talk soon to start working on the next vacation.

Our African Safari
We want you to know how much we enjoyed everything and appreciative of your guidance. The whole trip was spectacular. A&K was incredible- the Zambia and Botswana accommodations and service were great and the experience with our guides was just phenomenal. We saw everything possible to see and did it with great style. Thank you for suggesting that trip- it couldn’t have been better. We also really enjoyed our time in South Africa at Zulu Nyala. While not as high as A&K, the accommodations were lovely and our guide there was extraordinary. We were happy to have the contrast between the 2 locations as the countries and the game viewing are uniquely different. It was a wonderful time! We are sharing our adventure and I am steering friends your way. Thank you again for your help and we will be in touch about future travel. We were far more prepared because of your suggestions about clothes, travel, etc than our fellow companions!
