Tour organizer, Richard Dacier, bites off more than he can chew when he loses at poker to the South African mob. Coming face to face with Africa's cruellest Godfather, Mr. Charles, he is given two choices: either Charles' men kill Bako, a trusty old fellow who not only raised him but also runs his struggling safari company, or add an extra tourist to his upcoming safari and ensure the safe delivery of a locked briefcase. A simple task it seems... but not for Dacier who, as the result of a traumatic experience, has not entered the bush since he was a boy. As this hilarious safari of misfits lurches into action, it soon becomes clear that none of Dacier's guests are who they said they were, and as the briefcase drop goes disasterously wrong and the group find themselves being chased by an army of angry Mozambique rebels, the tourists’ true identities begin to emerge. As Dacier is forced to face his past, he learns a thing or two about loss, love and courage. But will he be able to save Bako?
