We booked two tours (this one and the Caracol ruins tour) and our guide was Victor for both. Victor is an amazing human and was extremely knowledgeable, friendly and experienced. Having Victor for both tours made the trip. By the end of the second tour, we really got to know each other and had a great time. Lots of laughter and great conversations. The Caracol Ruins are breathtaking and massive. There was a lot of knowledge to take in and we were asking a lot of questions. Wonderful experience. The jaguar reef jungle hike and waterfall tour was great. This hike is not for the faint of heart but the waterfalls are worth it. 10/10 for both tours

We had an incredible experience with Julian Transfers in Belize! We booked a private airport shuttle as well as two tours, and everything was seamless from start to finish. Our driver and guide for both tours, Victor, was absolutely amazing. He truly made the experience unforgettable. We did a waterfall hike in the Jaguar Preserve and a trip to the Caracol ruins, and Victor brought each place to life with his knowledge, stories, and genuine enthusiasm. He really catered the days to us, making sure we were comfortable, engaged, and having fun the entire time. The shuttle service was also excellent—reliable, smooth, and made traveling to and from the airport completely stress-free. 5 stars all around. Highly recommend Julian Transfers, and we’ll definitely be booking with them again (and will request Victor!) on our next trip to Belize!

Nice hike but with little interest compared to the price. It is known that jaguars are very rare but have seen few birds and other species. Performance not up to what we expected. Can be planned without a guide.

Victor is wonderful! He was polite, knowledgeable and professional. We were lucky to have him all to our selves for hiking, wildlife and waterfall. The jungle was amazing and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

Victor was a wonderful guide on the tiger fern trail. A beautiful slightly challenging trail to a wonderful waterfall. Thank you Victor for a memorable day.

No experience to let anyone know about don’t book it - I should be getting my money back - take a taxi cheaper

I used Julian’s company to get from the airport to Jaguar Reef lodge- about 90 minutes on the Coastal Plains highway- then for tours to Antelope Falls and Tiger Fern hikes on two separate days and to the airport in Dangriga. All of the drivers were on time and personable- imparting interesting facts without talking nonstop at us- a good balance! The vehicles were clean and comfortable, the drivers safe and efficient. I take a lot of taxis and Ubers and it’s nice to have drivers who know the balance between the passenger wanting to get there quickly and wanting to get there safely. Communication was timely and friendly. I would 100% recommend Julian’s crew and would definitely use them again if I go back.

Victor was an awesome guide. He picked us up from our rental and took us to the park. He was friendly, knowledgeable, wise, and professional. He told us about the history of the land and culture and knew about the flora and fauna we came across. He also provided us with some snacks and drinks.

We thoroughly enjoyed our hike and waterfalls tour. Our tour guide was on time and well educated on topics concerning the landscape, geography and animals in the zone. Water was provided as well as a meal! Will definitely use Julian transfers & Tours again.
