Splendours of Northern India
India is a land of rapturous liveliness, of art and devotion and flowering creativity, a land that values intense quietude amidst its endlessly swirling colour.
And, of course, it's a land of sublime natural and perhaps matchless human- made majesty. Based from some of the world's most expertly luxurious and serene hotels, this brilliantly choreographed two-week journey brings us into intimate contact with many of
And, of course, it's a land of sublime natural and perhaps matchless human- made majesty. Based from some of the world's most expertly luxurious and serene hotels, this brilliantly choreographed two-week journey brings us into intimate contact with many of India's most compelling splendours: Delhi's many monuments to Mughal and British imperial pride; Jaipur's whimsical pink buildings and vast royal residences; beautiful Udaipur's lakeside and island straddling palaces; and perhaps especially with the Taj Mahal, an edifice so bewitching that Micato's friend Theo Cruz "had to shut my eyes to escape the feeling of being in a dream."

Back in 1966, Felix Pinto, a ranking member of the ex-British Kenyan government, started a luxury safari company. He also dabbled in gentleman farming on the family's rambling acreage outside Nairobi, which was even profiled in the prestigious American edition of Geo magazine. Micato's private safaris ultimately prevailed over farming and forty-five years and a Stanford, Harvard and Stanford Business School graduation later, the Pintos are joined by their (well educated!) children in the running of Micato Safaris. As it has always been, Micato is more than just a business—it is a labour of love.
The thrilling jolt of discovery, the shared smiles of amazement. Connecting with nature, with new cultures… and with a timeless part of yourself. Such experiences are not always common… but in Africa, they are as regular as the rising Serengeti sun.
But this is more than just Africa—it's Micato's Africa. It's an experience unlike any other, where you are a VIP everywhere you go. It is a blend of excitement and elegance, a place of delightful surprises and uncommon luxury. It is the home of Felix and Jane Pinto, who treat their guests, as Travel+Leisure noted, like "well-loved, out-of-town relatives."
Whether you're looking for a classic safari, a private off-the-beaten path journey, or a personal exploration of Africa's tribal cultures and rituals, there is simply no experience like a Micato safari.
