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.

I don't have anything to compare this safari company with but I can't imagine a better tour group! Our trip was beyond fabulous! Our guides and the properties were out of this world. Micato thought of everything! So many incredible details to mention. We also felt like we were in good hands if any issues came up. I feel so fortunate that we went with this company. Truly a dream come true.

We cannot thank Micato enough for the most wonderful safari experience! We were a family group of seven -ages ranged from 7-77. Our awesome tour guide Julius was with us every step of the way- we definitely feel that we made a new friend! In addition, every Micato driver and staff member that we met along the way was exceptional. We did the East Africa Splendor tour and spent time in Maasai Mara, the Serengeti, and Ngorongoro. Each place was wonderful in its own unique way and we saw tons of beautiful animals, including the elusive leopard and a black rhino. We made so many wonderful family memories and have lots of wonderful photos as well. If you are considering an African safari, look no further than Micato Safaris- they rock!!!
