I had booked Julian’s for both tours and transfers. The company was very professional, d and friendly. We had the experience of dealing with several members of the staff and we were very pleased and I would highly recommend this company for tours and transports!

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.

The tour for the jaguar preserve was wonderful. Our tour guide Victor was knowledgeable about the area and history. He was friendly and welcoming, and made sure every step that we were good. I absolutely recommend this for anyone on their trip to Belize and with the many different trials you can always come back to see more.

Tiger Fern is a Must See Tour!— My favorite Tour! Best Transfers and Tours in Belize We booked airport transfers and several tours with Julian Transfers & Tours (plus some with other companies), and overall, nothing compared to the experience we had with Julian Transfers & Tours. Professional Drivers Who Truly Care Everyone was early, professional, and shared incredible local knowledge — like must-try foods (Hudut, Fry Jacks, and Stuffed Fry Jacks) and hidden gems across Belize—genuinely aiming to make your stay unforgettable. Outstanding Communication and Organization Immediate booking confirmations, detailed follow-ups before tours, and helpful reminders (like bringing bug spray, sunblock, bathing suits, towels) — things other companies did not do. They truly help you —I also had a few special requests (like very late and early shuttle transfers for odd flight times), and they were extremely flexible and accommodating. Honest Pricing, No Hidden Fees Transparent prices, no surprise charges for stops or adjustments — making everything easy and stress-free. The Only Company I’ll Book With Again Their service, communication, knowledge, and overall care were unmatched. Can’t imagine booking with anyone else when we return to Belize. You can learn more or reach out at: https://www.belizegroundtransfers.com/ Special Shoutout to Alex: If you're lucky enough to have Alex as your guide, you’re in for an unforgettable experience. Alex didn’t just show us Belize — he made us truly experience it. You can tell he genuinely loves his country and sharing it with others. He is incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and easygoing. Alex made our trip unforgettable — knowledgeable, welcoming, and full of heart. He went above and beyond to create personal, once-in-a-lifetime moments not found on any itinerary. Thanks to him, I got to fulfill my dream of hiking Tiger Fern. Truly an experience I’ll never forget. Highly recommend! https://www.belizegroundtransfers.com/

Oscar was a true native (Mayan) guide. He was very knowledgeable. Our driver Einstein was good as well. It’s unlikely to see big cats but we did see a whole variety of birds. The jungle itself is the star.
