*Safari!*  *The word itself conjures images of adventure and romance.*

Micato Safaris&#8217; expeditions are luxurious by design, featuring world-class accommodations, legendary game parks, spectacular scenery at every turn and a richness of wildlife beyond your imagination.

Micato&#8217;s goal is to offer the most meaningful, luxurious and personalized safaris, striving to exceed our guests every expectation.  There is simply no better way to connect with the people, cultures and traditions of Africa.

With such dedication, unparalleled personal service and attention to detail, it is easy to see why Micato Safaris has been voted &#8220;World&#8217;s Best Tour Operator&#8221; by readers of _Travel+Leisure_ magazine for the past six years, as well as a &#8220;World&#8217;s Best Value&#8221;.

Micato operates safaris in Kenya, Tanzania, South Africa, Botswana, Zambia and Namibia as well as India, Nepal, Bhutan and Sri Lanka.  They can arrange extensions to the Seychelles, Maldives, Zanzibar, Mauritius and Lamu.  Micato offers scheduled safaris that range from 12 to 18 days, and invites guest to work with our Bespoke Department to create private, custom itineraries tailored to the interests of the individual traveller or group.

Micato Safaris in Kenya was founded in 1966 by Felix and Jane Pinto, whose family has a long history in Kenya, having settled in Nairobi at the turn of the last century.  They have welcomed thousands of visitors to Africa.  In fact, Micato guests travelling in East Africa are invited to cocktails and dinner at their home.  _Travel+Leisure_ wrote that Felix and Jane treat guests like &#8220;well-loved, out of town relatives.&#8221;

Through its non-profit foundation, AmericaShare, Micato gives back to the people of Africa, particularly children left orphaned or vulnerable as a result of the AIDS pandemic.  AmericaShare rescues these children from the slums of Nairobi and places them in reputable boarding schools, providing a quality education, room, board, clothing and supplies.  

Micato travellers are invited to spend a day visiting AmericaShare projects to learn of the challenges, meet the children and be inspired to help.  Travellers, corporate donors, industry friends and Micato staff have all helped make a difference in the lives of these children.  With administrative costs fully-funded by Micato, 100% of all donations go directly to AmericaShare projects.

In addition to the Travel+Leisure awards, Micato is proud to have garnered the following accolades:
