Micato delivers an unmatched experience. They think of everything -- and then do even more. The people of Micato are spectacular in both warmth and knowledge; their access to camps and the best drivers is unparalleled; their standards are exquisite. It is true you will never touch your bags, a boarding pass, stand in line to check in at a lodge or deal with a thousand other details. But more amazing than that is the way your experience builds on itself at each step. Because we had the same safari director accompany us (it is impossible to say enough good things about Joseph Mushi), he designed our game drives across camps -- meaning we didn't burn time hunting down lions while in Lewa as he had already called ahead to Masa Mara and knew we would see them there them (nursing cubs no less). Likewise, as he educated us about what we were seeing, he could reference what we had seen and discussed at prior camps, building our knowledge and understanding. There are so many things Micato will just handle for you (things like all of their game flights are on planes with two pilots) and you will be free to let the magic of Africa fill your up. We can't wait to go back -- and we will only do it through Micato. As a follow up, we added the Victoria Falls extension and had the same Micato magic experience. We felt like we had found the most captivating person at a local bar and had them tell us all about the area when we met our safari director, Michelle. And every little detail was simply amazing. We crossed paths with other Micato travelers twice in our travels -- and we all had the same reaction. Go ahead and surrender to Micato!

Best ever Safari in Kenya and Tanzania!Our family still talks about our trip of a lifetime with Macato. Over 1.5 and 2 million animals up close and personal over the 14 days. We are hoping to go on our fourth safari next year with our five star guide Kennedy.

“I was in India with MICATO in June/July. India is magical, the great history, temples , palaces and the sightseeing around the country was spectacular. The food was wonderful and the Masala tea with the wonderful taste and aromas from India spices was simply delicious. The trip was much more special because of the personal attention from the MICATO team. Marion was my travel advisor from the NY office; she did a fantastic job coordinating a wonderful trip for me since I was also attending a wedding in Ahmedabad. Everything was perfect from the moment I arrived to New Delhi. After the wedding, I met with Hem Singh, my tour director. Touring Delhi, Jaipur, Udaipur and Agra with Hem was spectacular. His knowledge and attention to detail was amazing. I feel honored to have met Hem, it was a privilege to tour such a beautiful country with him as my tour director. I can’t wait to go back to India to experience a safari with Hem as my Tour Director once again. Thank you Hem, Marion and MICATO for this unforgettable experience!

I have taken 7 Micato Safaris and will take more in the future. Their attention to detail is unrivaled. When there they make you feel like you are visiting your African Family. The safari directors are amazing and so knowable that every game drive is spectacular. If there is something special you request, Micato makes it happen. I wanted to celebrate my birthday in Africa, and they went above and beyond to make my day wonderful. For every safari booked they send a child to school. Micato is the GOAT Of safari tours.

My wife and I just complete a safaris through Botswana, Zambia and Zimbabwe with a 3 day extension in Cape Town. We can't say enough about our experience, from planning and pre-trip materials and guidance provided by Micato, onsight support each step of the way as we navigated international borders and bush flights. Their selection of bush camps - location, quality of facilities, services and guides/trackers provided for an optimal game watching experience. And our visit to Cape Town was illuminating from an historical, cultural and geographic perspective. The only thing we needed to worry about was making the most of our time; every other detail was taken care of by Micato. This was our first Micato excursion, but it won't be our last.

This was our 4th Micato safari, and somehow they just keep getting better. Meg Buffkin put together the most amazing experience that I’ll remember my whole life. She is truly amazing at what she does. Our guide Dennis was also incredible, and taught us so much. He is such a kind person, and we all can’t wait to see him on our next Micato safari. Everyone involved in this safari went above and beyond to make sure we had a wonderful time. Thank you for another amazing time in Kenya, Micato!
