About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Freedom3030350 contributionsWorry free way to see Belize!We not only used the shuttle service to and from the airport for our stay in Hopkins, but we used it for transportation and coordination of four other tours in the area. We appreciated the coordination , timeliness, and flexibility that each day brought us. I highly recommend this company.Written February 5, 2025
- lingcod0 contributionsGreat ServiceExcellent service for two trips including a return. Courteous driver who was knowledgable about Belize and Hopkins. I would highly recommend Julian Transfers!Written February 4, 2025
- kpf2240 contributionsGreat service!Julian’s transfer was great. Traveling solo and wanted to make sure I had a ride from and back to the Dangringa airport. Both drivers were very kind, shared a lot about the local culture.Written February 3, 2025
- 719darlenet0 contributionsProfessional and prompt.Travis was our driver. He was prompt and polite. He made the 2 hour drive very enjoyable. I highly recommend this company.Written February 3, 2025
- Dreamer029173965270 contributionsFun experience with a large groupOverall, this was a really wonderful experience for our group of 9. The ruins were breathtaking and it was great to have a guide tell us about the history a bit. I wish we had more time to explore and learn more, but we had a lot to pack into the day. The place we stopped for lunch was delicious, and they accommodated our vegetarian group members. The cave tubing was by far the highlight of the day - our guides were absolutely incredible, and you could tell they had such a passion for the beautiful caves, river, and surrounding forest. It was a lot for one day, especially with a long drive coming from Placencia and having a larger group, but I would still highly recommend this tour to see some Belize history and natural wonders.Written February 3, 2025
- szbelka570 contributionsBelize Int to HopkinsOur flight was delayed for more than and hour, so we're very grateful that the driver was still waiting for us upon arrival! Both drivers to/from Hopkins were very friendly, skillful and demonstrated a very safe driving manners. The shuttles were very clean and comfortable. Great experience, thank you all!Written February 3, 2025
- szbelka570 contributionsMayan Ruins and tubingExcellent experience - friendly drivers with great sense of humor, very experience and safe driving manners, considering that it was pouring rain during the whole trip to/from Hopkins, we've learned some tips about local culture.

- GrandTour4035830 contributionsIsland hopping boat charterThe guides(Kiran and Christian sp?)) were adventurous, gracious, and fun.

- Extraordinary8218850 contributionsCacao Farm / Chocolate MakingWe went to the Che 'il Chocolate Farm and then had a chocolate making lesson and tasted newly made chocolate bars. The farm presentation was really interesting and it was fun to the see the states of the cacao beans and hear about the process of what happens once the beans are picked and sent to the factory. Then learning how they make the chocolate bars was super fun; and the chocolate was so good.Written January 31, 2025
- Extraordinary8218850 contributionsShuttle from Airport to HopkinsVery happy with the shuttle service to and from the airport. We had 2 great drivers and the driver from the airport to Hopkins answered all my questions about the area and also pointed out the restaurants we should try in the town. Very reliable and nice vehicles! We had 2 families of 4 so it was nice to be able to be in the shuttle together. Also, it was half the price of what our hotel was quoting us!!Written January 31, 2025
- J9587HRglennl0 contributionsA great serviceJulian's shuttle service was excellent in both our shuttle experiences- at night from the airport to Hopkins, and again from Hopkins to Placencia. Drivers (Travis was one of them) and were courteous, friendly and helpful. They were on time, easy to find, and knew their way around. The drives were safe and efficient. We also appreciated the communications from Julian's before and during the trip, with confirmations and reminders. We will certainly use Julian's services on any future trips to Belize, and would highly recommend them to anyone planning to to travel there.Written January 27, 2025

Where do I begin? I was googling different tours that picked up in Hopkins since that’s where I was staying and I came across Julian’s transfers and tours. Every tour guide we had was amazing and Julian himself was awesome. From being very responsive with emailing me back right away to accommodating me with whatever tours I wanted to add .We did the Mayans ruins and blue hole tour as well as the chocolate tour. We also did horseback riding and snorkeling. Reginald was awesome with the horseback riding. We had such a blast! And the captains of the snorkeling boat were so patient with me as I was scared to snorkel since it was my first time. I highly recommend Julian’s tours -they arrived on time to pick us up and were very informative and fun! Thanks Julian!

Travis took us around and did an excellent job. He catered to our needs and stopped when we needed a bathroom break. This was definitely worth the money and Travis/Julian Transfers & Tours is a good company. Would highly recommend!

The driver was very nice and we had a great time. We had a great lunch and were delighted to see a toucan in a nearby tree. We also used your service for transport and it was fine.
