    This film is a low-key travelogue with references back to "Born Free", in which McKenna and Travers first starred. It has the slow build-up and narrative style of "The Gods Must Be Crazy", with a strong sense of animal-watching and a paper-thin plotline for the wildlife shots to hang upon. My seven-year-old liked it very much, and it reminded me of Marlin Perkin's Wild Kingdom in its photography.

    If you like the Born Free movie, with lots of aminal situations that are more natural and not so much confrontational, you will like this. Great For everyone in the family. My husband and I really enjoyed it, it was like being there.

    Quite dated film...story of British couple visiting Kenya. Vaguely amusing.
