Micato Safari is the Ultimate Family Vacation
Virtuoso editorial director Elaine Srnka had a lot riding on her recent family safari with us.
She and her husband and 14 others were celebrating “a year of milestones, including our 30th wedding anniversary, our daughter’s 18th birthday and looming high school graduation, and our son’s 16th birthday.”
Srnka goes on to say something that will no doubt strike a chord with many moms and dads.
As all parents wistfully know, the opportunities to gather everyone together dwindle with each passing school year, so the decision to book such a big-ticket, bucket-list trip was both practical and poignant. The prospect that this could be one of our last vacations as a family before the kids venture out on their own imbued it with additional meaning.
Not too much pressure on us, right? So, how did Micato do?
Srnka notes that “Micato has perfected the art of anticipation” and “Micato’s planning and execution are beyond amazing.”
She later adds, “It’s said that you come to Africa for the wildlife, but it’s the people you remember most,” Srnka says about her safari, adding, “my family will never forget our experience and everyone we met on our dream trip – and we look forward to many returns.”

Africa
Africa is not unusually hot and is actually perfect as a year-round destination. East Africa is on the equator and at altitude, and South Africa is on the Tropic of Capricorn, so it’s even cooler.
