“If you do nothing else in Kenya..find Julius”

Having seen so many good reviews on Tripadvisor, we decided to find Julius when we got to Neptune Resort, Diani Beach. We are so glad we did. After speaking with Julius we asked him to arrange a three day safari in Tsavo East/West. Our driver Syrus was terrific, he ensured that we saw as much as possible in the time we had. Julius took care of every detail even telephoning during the trip to ensure everything was as we had hoped. We were treated like royalty. We had the best rooms in the lodges and a safari vehicle to ourselves. Julius works extremely hard to ensure complete satisfaction at a fraction of the prices charged in the hotels. We saw the "Big 5" and much more besides, it was truly magical. Julius also arranged a trip to Wassini Island and while we were snorkeling, dolphins came and swam alongside to see what we were doing !! ( I wouldnt be surpised if Julius had a hand in that too). Kenya is a beautiful country but it was made magical by the experiences that Julius created for us. We plan to return next year for another holiday tailor made by Jt Safaris. Thanks again Julius...See you soon.

“Fantastic service 10 out of 10”

We went on Safari with JT Safaris in December 2007 and did the 3 day / 2 night Tsavo East & West Tour. We contacted Julius at JT before we went as we had read such good reviews on his company. We met with Julius and arranged what we wanted to do. There were four of us and we had our own driver and vehicle (other companies we saw had more people in their trucks). We had an excellent driver called Lucky who had bionic eyes and we stayed at Ngulia Safari Lodge and Voi Safari Lodge-both of which were in such beautiful locations with spectacular views. I cannot fault the service provided by JT Safaris-we were so pleased with our safari that we also got Julius to arrange a half day city tour of Mombasa, which was excellent and cost only a third of what First Choice wanted for the same thing-again we had our own vehicle and guides. We want to go back to Kenya and will definitely use JT again.

“Best Safari ever!”

My wife and I holidayed recently in Kenya, and had our safaris, and day trips, organised by Julius and his team.
We could not have had better attention, and seen more wildlife in the time, than this. His staff were very attentive and went out of their way to look after us, particularly one of their guides, Lucky, who was very knowledgeable and madse sure we saw 4 out of the Big 5!
The lodges, Ngulia and Voi, were just the job and very well maintained, right in the middle of Tsavo. We did a 3 day trip to Tsavo East and West and had agreat time.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Julius Nzumbi and his team, they were brilliant.

We visited Kenya over Xmas and new year and was keen to go on Safari, after researching and reading reviews we contacted Julius via email befor our Trip, we agreed exactly what we wanted which was a 4 day safari and Julius was very helpful, replying to emails and making sure all our expectations where going to be met. We had a wonderful time and Julius is a greet guy very helpful, not pushy and making 100% effort to ensure we had a great expierance. We hope to return again as soon as troubles die down and would not hestitate to contact Julius again.

Absolutely fantastic! Julius went beyond the call of duty to arrange a fantastic safari for myself and my friend. Continually offering his best advice, answering all of my (sometimes quite difficult!) questions and requests. And!!! when I forgot the time difference answering my middle of the night phone calls. We did a 3 day/2night safari in the masai mara staying in kichwa tembo and flying out from mombasa old town. We LOVED IT! best holiday ever! Despite news reports that continually showed the
turmoil in kenya, whilst on Safari we were never affected by it.
Overall, I cannot recommend Julius enough, quality, price and service were second to none. Cannot wait to get back!
