I just returned from a mission trip to Kenya with Micato. I cannot say enough good things about the tour company. I was extremely nervous traveling during this COVID-19 pandemic, but Micato handled everything expertly: keeping us informed on all the travel requirements and scheduling our return testing, providing vaccinated drivers & guides, and following all of the CDC guidelines for safety. Safety truly is one of their top priorities.
Another of Micato’s priorities is the happiness of their clients. There were 26 of us on this trip, and each of us were catered to as if we were the most important person in the group. Without going into too much detail, “Safari Jane” and Mercy went above and beyond to satisfy a wish for my daughter - their kindness will forever be remembered.
The lodging chosen by Micato was amazing and all of the food was delicious. We joked that we were constantly eating. The Sundowners while on safari were held in interesting outdoor spaces, allowing us to truly appreciate the breathtaking sunsets. (With rhinos within a hundred yards one evening!)
I look forward to traveling with Micato again in the future and hope that our travel consultant, Marion, will agree to plan it for our group. She is THE BEST!

This is my 5th African trip with Micato Safaris and they just get better and better. Everything about the trip: safety, travel, preparation information, tipping etc are all handled for you. The guides/drivers on the safari are knowledgeable and friendly. (Jeremiah at the Mara was a favorite) This makes for a relaxing, exciting worry free event. Marion in the USA is excellent at coordinating and answering questions. Kennedy and Johnson in Kenya are top notch. You won't be disappointed this is a trip of a lifetime!

I can't say enough good things about Micato. I have been a professional Travel Agent for over 35 years, and LOVED every minute of my Micato experience in Kenya! I now have a new "family" in Kenya! Thanks especially to Eve, George, Anthony, Dennis, and Marion! I can't wait to return!

Just returned from a 14 day trip to Tanzania with Micato Safaris and it far exceeded my already high expectations. I loved having a safari director with us the whole time, and lucked out having Willy as he's the kindest and best one out there (no bias :)). The surprises we had each day were incredible and really elevated the overall experience. I really can't say enough about Micato, especially traveling in these uncertain times. To have someone there navigating us through visas and check-ins and all the other minutiae was not only a time-saver but a trip-saver as I was totally relaxed and never worried about anyting. I sell travel and recommend them all the time, and will do so even more after the bucket list trip I just experienced myself. Thank you Micato!

I've been on many trips as a tourist around the world, many of them with guides. But i have never had such royal treatment as my wife, two friends, and I had on this safari trip. We started in South Africa and then most of the time was in Tanzania. The accommodations and food and service were superior, including that there were many menu choices. To get that level of accommodations in the bush of Africa was amazing. The vehicles were first class, and the guides and drivers and spotters were great. They got us up close and personal (in a safe way) to so many animals in so many settings. For example, we watched a lion eat a Gazelle from ten feet away. We saw many giant herds and many cozy animal families. We even had lots of wild animals within viewing distance of nearly all of our accommodations, without even leaving the room! The guides listened to our preferences (which were to wear outselves out finding animals instead of chilling at the accommodations) and responded. Best of all, the guides really became friends and gave us a great education on their countries, their villages, and their culture. I recommend Micato to anyone that wants a great safari experience.
