In the tradition of Bill Bryson, a new writer shares the lively adventures and sharp wit of an African safari guide. Peter Allison, a top guide in the Okavango Delta, navigates the whims of wealthy clients, often feeling the urge to escape from them, as they can be more dangerous than lions! His outrageous true stories include a young woman who chose hot pink over safari-friendly khaki, a drunken, half-naked British royal, a squirrel that overdosed on malaria pills, monkeys with an underwear fetish, and Spielberg, a Japanese tourist eager to film Allison's narrow escape from charging lionesses. These hilarious anecdotes reveal Allison's self-deprecating humor and respect for wildlife. His goal is to minimize human impact on nature, though this doesn't always go as planned, leading to encounters in a hippo-infested watering hole. Packed with essential wisdom—like never running from danger and avoiding frightened zebras—this vivid portrait captures the life of a safari guide. Readers will find engaging accounts of daily adventures, hair-raising escapes, and a deep appreciation for Africa's beauty and beasts, making it a must-read for safari enthusiasts.
Průvodcem na safari. Na stránkách Allisonových příběhů a vzpomínek ožívá svět afrického safari se všemi možnými tvory – očekávanými i těmi, které by zde čtenář zrovna nehledal. Kromě nezapomenutelného setkání s hadem, slonem, ptáky a samozřejmě lvy je celá kapitola věnována kupříkladu dost urputným myším, které se rozhodly okupovat tábor. Allison píše lehce a vtipně a nešetří ani sám sebe.
