I just enjoyed my second fabulous safari with Micato. They truly take care of everything that you could think of - including binoculars for each traveler in the safari vehicle!
The guides are extremely knowledgeable about the animals and everything you're seeing. The same guide stays with you for the entire trip and quietly sees to your comfort behind the scenes.
The drivers (in addition to being quite knowledgeable about what you're seeing) are great at getting you to where you need to be to experience the area at its best. I'm still reliving the experience of the wildebeest crossing the Mara River with a big smile on my face. I'm not sure how our driver got us to the perfect location to witness this amazing event, but he did it ahead of many other vehicles - very impressive and fun!
I feel safe and completely taken care of when traveling with Micato. And the icing on the cake - the tips are included so there's no worrying about the proper amount to tip or having the correct type of money!
I find myself contemplating what else I might like to see with Micato ...

Most incredibly experience! We had the best honeymoon of our lives. Micato made everything perfect. Our guide Emmanuel and driver Adam were the best of the best. They are so knowledgeable and made the entire trip perfect. Thank you!

If you are looking for a safari where everything is so well planned that you just need to sit back and enjoy the amazing trip, look no farther than Micato Safaris. From the moment we arrived, until we were escorted to the airport for departure, every day was a fun filled adventure. There were surprises around every corner, from cute gifts on our bed each evening to amazing meals hidden deep in the bush. Every request was met the a “yes”, from finding an emergency dentist to unforeseen flight changes. Our safari director who accompanied us on the entire 5 camp trip was an amazing individual, who quickly became our East Africa friend. I hated to leave all the pampering to go home.

Micato - Thank you for such a fantastic adventure and experience.
From day one to the last day of our trip, this was nothing short of a first class journey - the small gifts left on our bed every night, the luxurious accommodations, our guide, Peter, was beyond attentive, charming, clearly knowledgeable and was delighted to sing in Swahili with my grandson and a few of our drivers

My wife and I experienced a life-changing vacation like no other on Micato's Jewels of Southern Africa trip with a Botswana extension. Every aspect of the itinerary was phenomenal. Yes, we loved seeing the multitude of animals in their native habitats. As if that was not enough, the people we met, the cultures we saw, the topography, the accommodations, transportation, the food....everything was excellent. In addition, our Micato guide, Leslie Edgar, was exceptional. He was very knowledgeable in every aspect of the trip (history, animals, birds, culture), extremely kind and attentive to all five clients on the trip, and truly a nice guy. My wife and I are now trying to figure out when we can go another Micato trip (ideally with Leslie as our guide). It could not be soon enough. We recommend Micato without any reservations at all.
And by the way, Diana Meehan in the Micato offices in New York was fantastic at putting our trip together and making the arrangements for Botswana too. Diana was super.

Traveling with Micato in Africa was nothing short of extraordinary! From the very first moment, every detail was handled with such care and thoughtfulness that it made the entire journey seamless and totally stress-free. The accommodations were beyond luxurious each having its own charm and breathtaking views.
The daily game drives were awe-inspiring. We saw lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, African buffaloes, hippos….oh and penguins in South Africa! Our guides were not only incredibly knowledgeable but also attentive and passionate about sharing their love for Africa’s wildlife and culture.
What really set Micato apart, though, was the personal touch. From the gracious hospitality and the exquisite meals, the seamless travel logistics, and the special surprises along the way, everything was perfection.
I cannot recommend Micato highly enough. They turned a safari into a life-changing journey, and I will treasure every moment forever.
