We all know the song… It starts with Rafiki on a cliff shouting, ‘AAAAAAAAAAA…’ into the Kenyan morning. Who doesn’t get chills…even while sitting in a movie theater?

Now, imagine waking up in a luxury eco-lodge (or tented camp), opening your eyes to the real-life African savannah laid before you.

Imagine discovering a pair of ‘honeymooners’ while on a private game-drive. I’m not talking about the type you see on the beach in Jamaica…I’m talking the king of the animal kingdom finding a queen!

Safari experts Q Cruise + Travel Imagine being on the ground to witness the world’s greatest wildlife migration…watching ‘the Circle of Life’ unfold in real time.

Imagine no more…because Q can take you there!

And why not travel with the company named the World’s Best Safari Outfitter (9 times and counting)? Micato Safaris is one of Q’s favorite, family-owned partners and Africa’s oldest travel ambassadors. Take it from Travel + Leisure magazine: the Pinto family “run their show as though they were entertaining well-loved, out-of-town relatives.” The Pintos know Africa, because they live Africa. As native Kenyans, they, along with their team, have cultivated the best of the best for their travelers.

Give Q a call and let us curate the best of Micato and Africa for you!
