Boost Safaris provides a fairly priced, high quality safari experience that I highly recommend.
Boost Safaris was exactly what I was looking for when planning my first trip to Africa and first safari. Steve was excellent in his communication, service, planning, experience in spotting animals while on safari, and pricing. I most appreciated that he picked us up at our hotel in Nairobi to begin the safari (we then drove to safari in Amboselli). He is very friendly, pleasant, and knowledgeable, which made it easy to spend many hours in the vehicle with him. He had thorough knowledge of the park and where to find the animals. Overall, the experience was excellent, and I would highly recommend him!

A happy trip where we saw lots of wild animals.
We had an absolutely wonderful time on our trip to Kenya!
Our guide, Steve, made this journey truly unforgettable. He’s such a cheerful, energetic, and optimistic person whose positive attitude is incredibly contagious. Throughout the trip, we had great conversations and even became friends. His natural sense of humor brought so much laughter and joy to our days.
Thanks to Steve, we were able to see an amazing variety of wild animals — not only the Big Five multiple times, but also many other fascinating creatures. He always went the extra mile to help us find the best viewing spots, which allowed us to take stunning photos and experience the wildlife up close.
We’re so grateful to Steve for making this trip such a memorable experience. Through his guidance, we truly felt the wild spirit of Africa, the vast open savannahs, the raw power of wildlife and the pure sense of freedom that defines this land.
This company is also locally owned and operated, which makes it an excellent choice for anyone who wants to support the local economy while enjoying an authentic Kenyan experience.

Kenya safari -The best safaris in maasai mara
Kenya Safari – The best safari in Masai Mara
"This was our first trip to Masai Mara National Reserve and Boost Safaris was always helpful and provided us with all necessary information to ensure a safe and smooth trip. I will recommend to everyone! Thank you!
Our trip was truly wonderful. We were picked form home by our guide Ben and drove very safely to Masai mara. The vehicle was in good condition and the guide was very informative. The Game drives were good we spotted the big five migration and plenty of game.
The Camp – Olkorok Mara Camp met our expectation and we really loved the staff and the food. Masai Village visit added the to the experience. We highly recommend this team.
Thank you, Boost Safaris- will do it again!

Amazing Safari with Steve
From start to finish the experience was incredible thanks to our guide, Steve. His passion for wildlife was contagious and made every day on safari exciting and enjoyable. With his deep knowledge and excellent local contacts, he always seemed to know where and when to find specific animals, giving us unforgettable sightings. Steve also made us feel completely safe and comfortable, even in the middle of lion/leopard/rhino territory when a bush-toilet stop was needed.
What stood out most was how much Steve cared about making the trip feel special. He went out of his way to make our experience as premium as possible, even securing us an upgrade to a fancier lodge in the Maasai Mara. His thoughtful approach, storytelling, and genuine warmth made him feel less like a guide and more like an old friend we had known for years.
On top of that, we felt the safari offered excellent value for us — balancing quality accommodations, seamless logistics, and a truly personalized experience. For anyone seeking a safari that combines professionalism, passion, and great value, I cannot recommend Boots Safaris and Steve highly enough.

Posted on Oct 26, 2025What started as a safari, ended up as a family re-union. We shared an unforgettable experience that will be in our memories forever. We can't wait for you to visit Kenya again and explore the parks that we didn't visit.

The best, most experienced and most friendly tour guide i’ve ever met
Steve was truly exceptional throughout our 4-day safari in Kenya, covering Lake Nakuru, Masai Mara, and Lake Naivasha. From the moment we landed, he ensured everything ran smoothly and made us feel completely at ease. His knowledge of wildlife is remarkable. He always knew where to go and what to look out for, and thanks to him, we saw the big 5 and best part was a leopard with it’s kill .
What stood out most was Steve’s genuine passion for his work. His excitement felt real every single day, and it was clear he takes pride in delivering unforgettable experiences. Beyond his professionalism, he’s incredibly kind, respectful, and always made sure we were comfortable and happy. He really knows everyone in Masai, and has good connections everywhere, which helped us a lot during our visit to Masai village. Was a great experience.
Steve is not just a guide, but someone who truly cares and that made all the difference. We left Kenya with amazing memories and a new friend

The perfect safari. Great value, excellent guide, and an unforgettable experience
Boost Safaris is amazing! We've done a few different safaris in Botswana, Zimbabwe, Kenya, and Tanzania, and Steve with Boost safaris really stands out. He organized the perfect trip that allowed us to see several of the parks in Kenya (Masai Mara, Amboselli, and Nakuru). He can build trips that fit your budget, as he has connections at all of the lodges across the parks. He can certainly arrange tented trips for more budget-friendly itineraries, as well as luxurious lodges for others.
When Steve first picked us up, it was clear it was going to be a great trip. He asked what we wanted to make it a great safari, and made it his goal to accomplish what we told him. Steve spoke excellent English (there was not a language barrier at all), and he mentioned he spoke 6 different languages. He was one of the best conversationalists I've ever been around. He asked questions out of a genuine desire to get to know us better and always had a perfect response or another question to keep the conversation engaging (which makes or breaks a safari when you're spending the entire day in the jeep). He knew a ton about every single animal, and he seemed to know several of the other guides very well, which helped in locating the action. During one of our days in Masai Mara, he took us directly to a cheetah which we got to see stalk prey for about an hour, then watch it hunt and kill a gazelle. It was truly one of the most incredible experiences I've had in my life! Since our trip, we still text Steve regularly--he's now a very close friend of ours, all because we trusted him to take us on safari. Do yourself a favor and book your Kenya safari with Boost.

The best choice
For our honeymoon, we decided to do a safari in Kenya, with Boost Safaris. We spent almost a week with Steve and his assistant George. Two wonderful people that we will never forget. We always felt safe with them. Steve knows very well his work and the different national parks of Kenya. Steve knows where to find the right spots to observe animals up close and he’s the best pilot ever seen! We were very satisfied with our choice and we can only highly recommend Boost Safaris. A very big thank you to them for making us live an exceptional moment in nature!

Steve was engaging,entertaining and well informed ,bringing every moment of the safari to life
We had an unforgettable experience visiting Shaba National Reserve with our amazing safari game driver Steve. Thanks to Steve, we were able to spot elephants, giraffes, Zebras and even a hard-to find lions family. He shared fascinating facts about each animals and made sure me and my fiancé felt safe and engaged.

Excellent value and quality tours with guides that will make you feel like family
From the moment we were picked up, we knew this safari would be a life changing trip. Our guide Steve immediately made it a priority to get to know us as people and we bonded instantly. Our flight was delayed by 24 hours and he worked diligently to rearrange our trip to be sure we didn’t miss any part of our itinerary. Steve knew our big goals of this trip were to see rhinos, to see a hunt, and see a leopard. He made all three of those goals happen!! It was very clear that he was just as excited as we were each time we met one of our goals. His knowledge of the wildlife is impressive. We were confident that we were with an expert. Steve knew photography was important to me so he sought out amazing photo opportunities for us too. We have recommended Boost Safaris to everyone in the US that we have sent to Kenya for vacation. I would trust them with my life! Book immediately- you will not regret it!
