I just returned from the trip of a lifetime! My cousin and I did a safari with Micato at the Ngorongoro Crater and Serengeti National Park. The only complaint I have, is we should have made our trip longer! I'm a frequent international traveler and have been all around the world and this is by far the best trip I have ever been on. The Micato team was great to work with from planning in the beginning all the way through arriving back home after the trip. Marion helped us plan and prepare for our trip answering all of our questions and assisting with everything. We had Grace with us in Arusha and she even helped retrieve items left at our hotel. Peter and Emanuel were our guide and driver and we had the best time with them. We definitely left Africa with new, life long friends. We are already planning our return trip (which we really started planning our second day because we knew we couldn't get enough) which can't come fast enough. I still can't stop smiling thinking about our trip and giggling about our jokes we shared with Peter and Emanuel. I haven't laughed so much in so long! There aren't enough words to describe how spectacular this trip was. Everything was planned so well and executed flawlessly. We saw so many rare sites and had prime viewing spots and it was all because of the expertise from Peter and Emanuel. We could definitely tell the difference in caliber of Micato versus other safari companies while we were watching the animals and there's a reason Micato is the best! Don't tell the animals, but the people were the best part of the trip! (But the animals are a very close second!) I'm back home now and find myself scanning for animals in the grasses and trees. And dreaming about our next trip back!

Micato is the best for a reason. I had extremely high expectations and I was not disappointed in any way. I have three children 16,15 and 13 and they said that this was not a vacation but an experience. The also said that it was life changing each for different reasons. I honestly believe that my children are more grateful, compassionate, confident, adventurous and closer after doing this safari. It is single handedly the best thing that we have ever done as a family and don't feel that it would have been near as special with another tour group. Thank you Thank you Micato!

I can not put into words how grateful I am and what a wonderful experience it has been working with Micato Safaris. I confirmed my clients on the Splendours of Northern India 10 night journey.
Confirmed with Marion Miller in the Micato New York office. Every aspect of working with Marion to confirm my clients for their first trip to India was a 5 star experience. Marion was able to secure the dates my clients needed. Their small group journey was very small, only them! All the questions about the itinerary were promptly and thoroughly answered. Including assistance with the entrance requirements. Micato sent out multiple packages to the clients and myself with beautiful printed material and gifts. Unlike a few other luxury tour operators that expect the clients to print their own documents or refer to their lap top for their information. My clients emailed me numerous times throughout their journey to praise their driver Hari and Guide Puneet. They treated my clients like royalty. Also the hotels were perfect and the clients got great upgrades!!
Be sure to contact Micato and ask for Marion Miller to confirm your trips to India and Africa too!!!

Absolutely an epic trip! If you take one trip in your lifetime, this is the one and Micato is the company to go with for this adventure. Allyson is a super guide and she had to handle a medical situation with a member of our group and she was brilliant. The lodges, safari guides, and staff members were all top drawer! The game drives every day were just spectacular. After taking 3000 photos, yes 3000, we have a lot of work to do before we post. Don't bother looking at other Safari companies, just book Micato.

We just spent 2 incredible weeks with Micato in India! This company is stellar and well worth the price of admission. From pre-trip expertise, tailored itineraries, 5 star guides/ hotels/ food and multiple unexpected gifts/ add-ons-- this company truly sets itself apart from the pack. Our guide quickly was able to read our vibe and tailored our itinerary accordingly, offering my partner and I experiences that are not on a traditional tour. We felt so safe, well cared for and listened to. We would definitely travel with Micato multiple times over!!!

Our Micato 12 day grand Safari was the “trip of a lifetime”. As much as we saw many many animals, Micato made the difference from beginning to end.
The attention to detail was amazing. They met you the minute you got off the plane and walked you to your gate on the way out.
The accommodations were top notch. The leader, Peter, was over the amazing, knowledgeable, friendly, helpful….everything you would want in a leader.
By taking this particular tour, there were many short flights within the tour which eliminated many hours on the very bumpy roads.
All in all, you won’t find a better Safari company. Perfection from start to finish.
