Our Story
We are Michelle, Seth, and Nathan — and together, we are Emerald Palm Travel.
We believe people matter. We understand the profound value of building cherished memories with the ones you love. We believe travel matters — for its power to transform, inspire, and connect us. And we know that time is life’s most precious luxury, never guaranteed.
After losing our incredible husband and father, Barry, we chose to combine our individual gifts and shared passions to help others experience the beauty of travel in a deeply meaningful way. It’s in those moments — away from the routine of everyday life — that magic happens. Relationships deepen, and the wonder of a new place, culture, cuisine, or simply uninterrupted time together leaves a lasting impact.
After 25 Years of Safari experiences and over a decade living in South Africa, our hearts are forever rooted in Africa. We fell in love with the wild beauty of the bush and the sense of awe that only a safari can bring. Our journeys across the globe have only deepened our belief in the transformative power of travel.
At Emerald Palm Travel, our goal is to serve, inspire, and guide you as you pursue your next unforgettable adventure. We are a family with a heart for people, a love for life abroad, and a passion for exploration — and we can’t wait to hear your story.
Travel That Gives Back
At Emerald Palm Travel, giving back isn’t an afterthought—it’s personal. We proudly donate a portion of every trip’s profits to Surfers Not Street Children, an organization close to our hearts and based in our hometown of Durban, South Africa. We’ve seen firsthand the incredible work they do—empowering street-connected youth through mentorship, mental health support, education, and the healing power of surfing. When you travel with us, you’re not just exploring the world—you’re helping change lives.
