JT delivered great services for Safaris trip
The trip was amazing. Lodging Accommodations are great although we didn't spend much time rather than sleep. Great food with caring staffs at all the lodges. We had 4×4 and experienced driver/tour guide. Since Roads are rough, 4×4 is a must. Our driver George knew his roads well, knew where to find animals. We saw a lot of animals even the lion hunting and the kills. Drives from one park to another is rather long. But it worth seeing the country side. Communication was a little delayed at times from JT, but expected as we are in different continent. Overall, Julius is very accommodating to our needs. I would highly recommend JT Safari and George the driver. We all had a great experience.

Trip of a lifetime!
We have just had the most incredible week in Kenya on safari organised by Julius and his team. I contacted Julius after deciding that using a local tour guide was the best option for us, in March .We had booked our flights but didn’t quite know how to proceed. Julius quickly came back with a suggested itinerary that would make the best use of the time we had, possible places to stay and prices, which seemed so reasonable, we didn’t bother looking elsewhere! I have to say that I was slightly nervous about sending a large deposit by bank transfer to someone I hadn’t met, all the things you are told not to do! However we were reassured by the trip advisor reviews and our trust wasn’t misplaced! Harrison, our guide, met us at our airport hotel and we put ourselves into his capable hands. He drove us to all the parks , gave us fantastic information about both the country and the many animals and Through a combination of his skill and knowledge and good fortune ( after all when you are dealing with wild animals nothing is guaranteed! )we got to see the big 5 and so much more, coming away with some amazing photos. We can’t speak highly enough of Harrison and the way he looked after us all week. Julius checked in regularly by WhatsApp and calls which was very much appreciated we really felt like we got excellent service that worth every penny that we had paid
Fantastic Service from JT Safaris
This was probably one of the most memorable holidays I have ever had, thanks to the detail and organisation by Julius and his team. I had previously sourced quotes from some UK travel companies, but these were all for shared, small group safaris. I really wanted a private safari and, after a lot of research, I decided to contact JT Safaris. To my surprise, Julius provided me with a quote for a private safari in the Masai Mara and a beach stay in Diani at much less than the previous quotes for the shared safaris. This included all internal flights, transfers etc so all we had to do was arrange our flights to Nairobi. Initially I was a little sceptical at booking something that I knew very little about but I was reassured by other reviews. At times communication was a little slow but I have since learnt that this is just how things are in Kenya - the internet can be intermittent and Julius is a busy man. Do not worry if he doesn't get back to you immediately - he will definitely make sure that everything is organised. I was also a little worried about transferring a large amount of money to an unknown company, but transferring via Revolut was quick and easy. As promised, we were picked up by our drivers at every point in the holiday and felt safe and secure at all times. The highlight of the trip had to be our safari driver Harrison, who is just the nicest man! He made sure that we had the trip of a lifetime and worked tirelessly to meet our needs. We learnt so much from him about the animals and the Kenyan way of life. He had a great sense of humour and amazed us with how much he knew about the Masai Mara roads. As a result of this, we managed to see the Big 5 and so many more! Our accommodation at both Fig Tree Camp and Diani Sea Resort was fantastic - again all organised by Julius who also came to visit us at Diani to check that everything was ok.
If you are looking for a bespoke service with everything organised for you then this is the company to book with. In addition to this, you will get a great price and memories that will last a lifetime! Thank you Julius, Harrison and your team.
Perfect Safari with JT!
The journey has been wonderful! Thanks to Julius who organized everything perfectly! We had the best guide Abdul - polite, attentive, funny and supportive. We spent 10 days on safari, traveling from park to park. All accommodation was excellent, no complaints.

Efficient, caring and excellent
We booked our 3 day 2 night safari to the Masaai Mara through JT Safaris before we had left home for our holiday because JT offers great service and price! Actually this is the second time we had booked a safari with JT Safaris as we were impressed with the service on our first booking.
The booking was smooth and easy. Julius kept in touch on WhatsApp so that communication was good.
The safari at Governor's Camp was fantastic, as much wildlife as you would want to see including the big 5.
We can't thank JT Safaris enough and recommend to anyone thinking of booking a safari in Kenya.

Amazing Masai Mara Experience
The safari in Masai Mara was wonderful. The agency had everything quite organized. The Fig Tree Camp was amazing!! Great food, the tents are great and comfortable, the service is outstanding. There are so many trees and a beautiful river, so it is a great place for birding....
My guide was Lucky. He is a Masai and knows so much about wildlife and also he is an expert on birds which was a big plus for me!!! I also learned a lot from him about the Masai culture.
I was a solo traveller and I felt quite comfortable. I really recommend Julius Safaris as a serious agency with high standards that offers good prices for the safaris!!

Incredible Safari Experience
After reading other trip advisor reviews I decided to book my safari with Julius before we even arrived in Kenya. His communication and organisation was excellent. We had an amazing safari and our driver Harrison was brilliant. We did a 3 night safari and 3 nights were at Salt lick lodge which was a wonderful place to observe the animals coming to the watering hole. Harrison was full of interesting knowledge and he was also flexible if we wanted to change our plan for the day. Harrison’s knowledge and keen eye for spotting wildlife meant that we saw so many types of animals. The last morning watching a cheetah chase down a Heart Beast was an unforgettable experience. On my birthday Harrison took us to a view point at sunset and arranged a bottle of champagne to watch the sun set. I can honestly say with everything we saw that day and the champagne at sunset that it was the best birthday I’ve ever had. Cannot thank Julius and Harrison enough and would definitely book another excursion with them in the future.

Attention to detail of every step through booking and follow up during trip and afterwardsx
Booking with Julius was a very easy process and his attention to detail to include everything we wanted was exceptional. His choice of camp and driver couldn’t have been any better for what we wanted and our budget.
