Voted the #1 World’s Best Safari Outfitter by Travel + Leisure 10 times – more than any other tour company in the world – Micato Safaris has been setting the standard for luxury and service for nearly five decades. Micato programmes deliver the very best experiences and lodgings in destinations throughout East Africa, Southern Africa and India. Sumptuous experiences await the Micato traveller in the company of Micato’s highly-credentialed safari directors and driver-guides. Travel + Leisure states, “Micato’s edge is personal warmth. The Pinto family run their show as though entertaining well-loved, out-of-town relatives.” This warm touch and personalized service means that all programmes include all luxuries, plus every last gratuity, even to Micato safari directors and driver-guides. A Micato adventure is life changing both for the traveler and for a child in Africa. Through the company’s One for One Commitment, for every safari they sell, they send a child to school. Micato’s nonprofit arm, AmericaShare, also operates a boarding school sponsorship programme and provides outreach through their community centre in the heart of Nairobi’s Mukuru slum. Micato is the only tour company to have won five Condé Nast Traveler World Savers Awards, three for "Education"​ and two for "Doing it All."​
