Why Micato

Safari is more than a word; it is a siren call for the travelling soul. For those who have yet to experience it, our luxury safaris are goals. For the fortunate who have felt its magic… safari is a magnetic memory, calling them back.

In truth, safari is often a once-in-a-lifetime experience—so it makes sense to travel with the best….

And that’s Micato Safaris.

Micato is proud to have been named “World’s Best Tour Operator and Safari Outfitter” by the readers of Travel+Leisure an unprecedented eight times.

Why have we won this award so many times? To us, safari is more than just a business. It is a way of life. Africa is our home, exploring it is our passion… and delighting our guests is what truly drives us.

The Pinto family has lived in Africa for several generations and run safaris for the past two—actually three generations, if you count the young Pinto grandchildren who are already experienced safari hands!

Suffice it to say that Micato has a long family history of safari, and of treating guests, as Travel + Leisure put it, as “well-loved, out of town relatives.”

We look forward to welcoming you to the family!
