I normally don't take the time to write reviews, but I just had to recommend Micato Safaris to anyone planning a trip to Africa. Everything about our Stanley Wing Safari made it the trip of a lifetime, agree to by our entire group, and in spite of thinking this would be a "one and done" experience, I now want to plan another trip to Africa or India with Micato. From the time you book your trip until the day you leave Africa, they present you with surprises that enhance the experience and show you the level of detail that goes into their planning. What makes Micato special? Culture - the Pintos hosted us, as they do all East Africa safari guests, in their home in Nairobi for lunch, and it was clear from their interaction with the Nairobi staff that they knew all their names and considered them family. Our knowledgable safari director and driver guides only work for Micato and most had been with the company for over 10 years or their entire career, and they worked together as a close-knit organization. Service - the staff seemed to anticipate our every need or desire, and they tried to accommodate every request. Our safari director, who was with us from the time we arrived in Nairobi until the time he dropped us at the airport for departure, worked tirelessly behind the scenes to make everything go smoothly. Mission-minded - the work Micato has done with AmericaShare is noteworthy, and we saw the impact while visiting their site in Mukuru, in the comments of a graduate who accompanied us on our visit, and in the waves of the Kenyans in the Mukuru slum as we drove by on our way to the site. I could wax on but it must be clear by now that I highly recommend Micato Safaris!

Wow, what an amazing trip with Micato. My lifelong dream trip was even more amazing and exhilarating than I imagined. I love the One for One program that helps educate Africans! The Micato people are true professionals who actually care about their customers' experiences. Excellent from top to bottom and A to Z!!

We just had our second custom safari with Micato, this one to Kenya and Tanzania. As with the first, it was outstanding in every respect. Our safari director, accommodations, food, bush pilots, and most of all wildlife viewing were all first-class. The efficiency of the operation and friendliness and skill of the Micato employees are truly impressive. The family nature of the business is very much evident despite the growth. Great company delivering a great product.

There are a lot of high end companies to choose from for Travel to Africa. I prefer to use Micato, they are considered above a 5 star Outfitter for African travel. Micato is very genuine, super knowledgeable, exceptional experiences where you feel completely taken care of. Do to their knowledge we were able to see a lot more animals than expected. Micato also works with America Share which is a nonprofit Arm of Micato Safaris where they give back to the local community which helps support the schools, Lacrosse, 110,000 girls empowered to stay in school. They also donate to the library and learning center.
