Micato Safaris
Description
Micato Safaris has landed in the #1 spot on Travel+Leisure’s World’s Best Safari Outfitter list an unprecedented 10 times and has made the list every year since the survey started, giving Micato the distinction of being the only tour company in T+L’s Hall of Fame. Micato has also won five Condé Nast Traveler World Savers Awards: Three for Education and two for “Doing It All.” When Felix and Jane Pinto founded Micato Safaris 60 years ago in Africa, their only business plan was to treat guests like family, an approach Travel+Leisure recognized when they wrote “Micato Safaris’ edge is personal warmth. The Pinto family run their show as though they were entertaining well-loved, out-of-town relatives.” No matter what the Micato adventure, whether it’s a Classic scheduled departure or a designed-specially-for-you Custom journey, for Micato it’s personal. Every member of the Micato team in the U.S. and Africa is steadfastly committed to providing experiences that exceed expectations. Micato’s non-profit arm AmericaShare, formed over 30 years ago, has deep roots in educating vulnerable and impoverished children: though the Micato One for One Commitment, the company sends a child to school for every guest on safari.
