Advice for a new duo

[Salathor]

I'm new to P99 (and EQ in general). I've got a level 10 enchanter human in Qeynos doing Blackburrow and am going to start a new guy with my brother as an introduction to the game. I'd like to show him as much of it as I can early on.

I'm thinking we're going to play as a Shaman/SK troll duo and do some stuff in the swamps and hopefully some low-level stuff in Upper Guk, but I've never been to any of those places.

Does this sound like a reasonable plan for getting a taste of open-world exploring and dungeon crawling for new players? What level would we need to be to at least start the first few rooms of Guk?
