We went on Safari to Tanzania in July of 2021 as a family, myself, husband , and two adult children. Micato exceeded our expectations at every turn. Our drivers and guides were outstanding and went out of their way to make our trip spectacular. Their knowledge and teamwork enabled us to see many animals and our game drives could not have been better.The accommodations and food at every place we stayed was wonderful. Traveling during a pandemic can be tricky, but Micato had everything handled from pre departure to our return. We can not wait to plan our next safari with Micato.

I recently went to Tanzania in a Micato tour. There aren’t enough good things to say about how wonderful this experience was. I’m a 62 year old grandmother, who had recently had brain surgery. My doctors said I had recuperated fully and I could travel, so off I went. I did not worry about anything for a single instant. Everyone, the Tour Director, the driver/guides, the concierge, everybody was professional, kind, friendly, and warm. I cannot wait to go back and take my granddaughter with me! Thank you, Micato (Renny, Simba, and Grace!) for the trip of my life. ❤️

Hard to imagine how they could have made it a better safari or travel experience. We went to South Africa and Namibia. It felt like they had an army of people helping us the whole trip, led by George our guide, who was fantastic. Amazing accommodations and great game viewing. When we had a medical issue in Namibia, they were ready with doctors and a flight to the hospital. As a result, everything turned out fine. They really tend to everything.
I had been on a couple of great safaris before, but not like this. Wouldn’t do it again without them.

A spectacular visit to Africa was had by all: my wife, Janet, my son David, and I. The Micato staff and all hotel staffs were wonderful to my family. I have not mentioned everyone's name, but people are important. They made our lives better!
The Micato guides, Afrika in Rwanda, Renny in Tanzania, and Sammy in Kenya were the best (most extraordinary) guides that I have traveled with to date. Traveling with guides, we have sailed to Antarctica (worst guides ever at Nathab), toured China by trains and planes (a great guide at Top China), and sailed to the Galapagos where we also had an extraordinary guide for OARS on our catamaran. I have also traveled with guides for Mount McKinley and Tetons mountain climbing, South American mountain climbing, ice climbing in the Rockies, Yellowstone horseback camping, white water rafting, and rock climbing. I have had instructors for drag racing, scuba diving, and sky diving. We, Janet and I, have traveled without guides to more than 20 cities in Eastern and Western Europe, traveled to Russia and Singapore, snorkeled with turtles in Hawaii, baracuda in the Florida Keys and sharks in the Galapagos, and we traveled to more than 40 cities and most of the national parks in North America. This travel list is provided to accent the quality of the guides that we traveled with, where guides typically have warm personalities and strong experience to alleviate the complexities of self-planned travels. Micato guides are at the top of the mountain.
In short, Micato guides, drivers, and staff put together and carried out an excellent trip, which included wonderful hotels and comfortably friendly staff. In fact, we currently plan to travel to India with Micato in 2022 or 2023. Asking someone to work for you again is the highest form of a compliment.

I cannot imagine doing this trip without the help of Micato during a pandemic. We were challenged by cancelled flights, requirements for extra covid testing along the way, and paperwork galore. Micato handled it all behind the scenes so our trip remained a fabulous vacation. They even had a doctor come to a hotel to do a covid test at their own expense to allow our itinerary to proceed. We went on the African Splendor. The service, accommodations, food, and ANIMALS were nothing short of extraordinary. This was a splurge for us far beyond our usual, in celebration of a 30 year career in emergency medicine. We were pleased beyond words. Worth every penny. Micoato ROCKS.
