We just returned yesterday from our trip and I don't even know where to begin! To say this was a trip of a lifetime is an understatement! From the beginning to the end - from every detail - NOTHING was missed. Our main guide, in addition to being completely competent and knowledgeable about just about EVERYTHING was a total delight to be with. She managed any hitches brilliantly and knew when to respect our time alone although we also so enjoyed her company. I think it's safe to say that our experience was perfect and unforgettable and we could not be more appreciative.

My mom and I got to spend a wonderful day with Micato Safaris visiting their nonprofit project, a library in the Redhill township. They are doing very inspirational work, and while I've traveled with lots of different safari companies (I'm a travel journalist) this was the first time I got to see a company's charitable side in person. It's definitely made me want to travel more with Micato! Our Micato Safaris tour guide for the day also took us to visit the penguins at Boulder Beach, and he knew how to skip the line (without making anyone angry, LOL) and had umbrellas for us (it was pouring rain) and made the experience as comfortable as possible! He also arranged for us to have lunch at a really Insta-worthy restaurant with the most amazing farm-to-table food. We had reservations so we didn't have to wait (despite the line), and the entire day was a seamless experience! If they took such good care of us on a one-day tour, I can't imagine how spoiled we'd be if we got to travel with Micato on a multi-day trip. Can't recommend them enough!

I had an extraordinary trip (Hemingway with gorilla trek extension). Micato plans and executes the perfect (no-stress) luxury safari. The guides are friendly & supremely knowledgeable. Micato Miracles happen. I crashed my external hard drive backing up my photos from my gorilla trek (no photos were lost). In the morning, I contacted the Micato team about my dilemma. By that evening, a hand-delivered a replacement drive was there. I was surprised. I now know that I shouldn't have been surprised. I have learned that Micato means extraordinary service and (good) surprises. The effortless appearing execution of the trip only highlights the superior team working furiously behind the scenes to make it all appear seamless. The trip is expensive but the experience and memories are priceless. I wouldn't hesitate to do the exact same trip tomorrow, I would pick a different itinerary only for variety.

Five stars do not do justice for Micato. Seeing Africa is amazing in itself, but Micato’s level of personal service is unmatched. From the time we booked our safari to the moment we were met at the airport upon arrival until we were returning home, every single detail was considered and executed with seamless excellence. When I left something behind in a lodge, it was waiting for me at the next stop on our journey. Our safari director Peter was knowledgeable, personable and we enjoyed getting to know him. He really got our group to jell socially. We were fortunate to meet terrific people! Drivers and guides were exceptional, Laban was a favorite of ours, he spotted animals we would not have seen. Mercy managed us and our logistics from Nairobi, even a little surprise for us when we returned to Nairobi before heading home! The lodges and camps were luxurious and unique. The food was amazing. The bush… the drives, breakfast, dinner, and sundowners were breathtaking; my friends and family are getting tired of hearing me talk about them! Everyone associated with Micato took great pride in the fact that they are known for excellence and worked hard to ensure that every guest has a superior experience traveling with Micato.
