Amazing Safaris
I & my wife had an amazing time doing safaris as planned by Julius (JT Safaris).
We did 4 nights Masai Mara (2 nights in Masai Mara National Reserve & 2 nights in Mara North Conservancy). In MMNR, we stayed in Ashnil Mara, and in Mara North, we stayed in Royal Mara. Both properties were top-notch.
I had requested quotes from a few other tour operators as well, but Julius's was the most reasonable of all. His quote was the only one that included a stay in Mara North Conservancy (where usually the prices are on the higher end).
George, our Driver/Guide, was really good at his work. Highly skilled, punctual, and friendly person. Whenever we saw a bird/animal species that we couldn't identify, he would immediately refer to his book and show us the details. George gave his best for us to have a wonderful time.
The only thing I think Julius could improve on is his communication. Initially, he was very prompt in his replies, but later on, he would take time (sometimes) even to acknowledge your messages (which was frustrating), and I had to remind him.
Having said that, I highly recommend Julius Tact Safaris for wonderful experiences at competitive prices. I would definitely use their services again in the future.
Asante Sana, Julius and George

Available, prepared and attentive to customer requests
Our tour included a visit to the two parks Tsavo West and Tsavo East departing from Diani Beach with an Italian speaking driver and private jeep. The first stop in Tsavo West after a very good lunch of Swahili food (chosen by us from the various proposals). They escorted us to the beautiful room on stilts at Salt Lick Taita Hills. Highly recommended for the view and the presence of elephants. The safaris were also exciting thanks to our guide GeraGera, a true expert on animals, plants and a point of reference for all the other guides who traveled around the parks. In the second park, Tsavo East, we stayed at the Ashinil Aruba Lodge also immersed in the park with very kind and attentive staff. Different setting however characteristic and very clean. In the two parks we were lucky enough to meet every type of animal, from lions, elephants, gazelles, buffaloes, hippos, crocodiles, jackals, eagles, giraffes, zebras, we only missed the leopard . The organization of Julius Tact Safari was impeccable and highly regarded by the local structures. Recommended and to be repeated

Super
Julius was incredible in organizing the Safari for us. The guide Simon who spoke Italian and the driver Raam who managed to find the most hidden cats were really super. Thank you Julius for making us carry this Safari to our hearts. I highly recommend it!

Top organised
We did a 3-day private safari from Mombasa (Galu Beach) through JT tours in February, and we can definitely recommend it! Communication was easy via WhatsApp. We opted for the Landcruiser, which turned out to be no unnecessary luxury.
The first night we stayed at Salt Lick Safari Lodge, Taita Hills. What a beautiful lodge this is, truly a “once in a lifetime” paradise. And delicious food. The second night we stayed at Sentrim tented lodge in Tsavo East, a much smaller scale and more of an outdoor experience. Extremely friendly staff and delicious food. You are in the middle of the savannah, so don't be afraid of insects.
We saw plenty of wildlife in the parks. We saw lions in both parks, and the amount of elephants in Tsavo East was unprecedented.
We are very happy that we chose the 2 night safari. It is quite a drive from south of Mombasa, it would have been a shame if we had gone shorter. It costs a bit, but then you get something. We had a great time!

Amazing Kenyan safari with driver George
We are couple and we have been on safari with Julius agency in February for 7 days/5 nights. Everything from the beggining was amazing. We visited 4 national parks: Amboseli, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and Masai Mara. Of course we have seen amazing nature, lots of animals and of course famous big5. Our driver George was amazing every second - very good and carefull driver on crazy Keniyan roads, puctual at every time, he stops whenewher we wanted in the park and the most important - he knows the animals behaviour so we always had the nicest place to observe animals among all the cars in national park. We were sleeping in amazing lodges inside parks, which was truly beautiful experience. I can recommend Julius & his agency anytime.

Cannot recommend this company highly enough. Everything they promised, they delivered. First class!
Very easy to deal with from the UK, clear communication throughout the booking process. Had an excellent driver/guide and the vehicle to ourselves (party of two). Highly recommended, you will not be disappointed!
