“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!

What a fabulous trip to Africa! We really don’t know where to start with the accolades but this was a trip of a lifetime.
My husband and I went to Africa for our honeymoon many years ago and we wanted to take our 15 year old son Jack so he could experience the incredible beauty of Africa and see how other people love and live in the world. Goal Achieved! He was mesmerized with Africa and its people and as a teenager saw the world through a different lens than his day-to-day life he lives in Colorado. It was fun to watch a teenager soak in all the wonder and glory of this continent.
Everything went beautifully. The resorts were gorgeous and we so appreciated the warm staff and all our butlers, which was a new experience for us. Having someone being present 24/7 when needed was very comforting. Our compliments to our Maasai Tour Guide Kintai as he customized this trip on a personal level and bonded with our son on many levels. They really were best friends throughout our trip and we so appreciate his sincere care for our family. We met the Maasai people and experienced their rituals and lifestyle in a personal and beautiful way. We particularly enjoyed the Mara Nyiki resort in Kenya and Xanadu in Zanzibar as they were the ultimate in luxury and service.
The animals…..what can we say except AMAZING!
What a lifetime memory. Thank you for hosting us in Africa and a very warm Assante.

South Africa was wonderful. Meg picked four very diverse 5-star locations. We had the best guides in each place (IMHO). The close encounters with many animals were amazing to us. The very cool weather for the safaris was well worth our experiences.
