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!

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!

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

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

Unforgettable 5 days safari experience in Masai Mara for affordable price but best service !!!
We recently did a 5 days safari in Governors Camp at Masai Mara. Julius offered us a fair price with top service.
They picked us up from Diani Beach to Ukunda Air Strip to fly over to the Musiara Air Strip.
However, the pilot was a bit lost and only let us out at Ol Klombo Airstrip by mistake. Due to days of heavy rain, we were unable to get to Governors Camp by jeep.
After a short call to Julius with description of the problem, we had a driver who drove us to the nearby Mara Intrepids. There we got a coffee and were able to have a look at the lodge. As soon as we had finished our coffee, we were driven back to the air strip. A small plane was already waiting for us to continue our flight.
Only when problems arise you realize how much the booking with Julius was worth and what contacts he has to solve our problem in the shortest possible time!
After 5 unforgettable days at Governors Camp, we returned to Diani Beach. Everything went absolutely smoothly. Julius' drivers were incredibly nice and very punctual. The driving was fast, but always careful. My wife even fell asleep during the drive, which doesn't happen to her when I drive ;-)
As we had changed hotels after the safari, Julius kept our luggage for us for the duration of the safari. Apart from the fair price for an unforgettable experience, Julius didn't charge anything for the extras, but took them for granted.
As Dixon our safari driver is retiring in 5 years we have promised to visit him again before retiring !!!
Of course via Julius....
Many, many thanks again and see you and your team soon !!!

Wonderful experience, happy to do it again!
We booked 14 days in Kenya + Tanzania with JT Safaris.
After our first inquiry, we quickly received good suggestions and the communication via email and whatsapp was unproblematic. Everything was well organized and went smoothly.
The camps and lodges were conveniently located and we liked them very much.
Our guide Dominic arranged everything for us on site and was great at finding animals and interesting places. His kind care and helpfulness made the trip easy for us.
Julius kept in touch almost daily via whatsapp. We had a wonderful trip and can recommend JT without reservation.
