The Carry On Gang goes on safari, where they're captured by a tribe of cannibals and then by a tribe of amazons. It's nonstop nonsense, blatantly lewd and broadly played, lechery run amok till the amazons put the men to work and the perils of getting what you wish for become apparent. The full title is "Cary On Up the Jungle or The African Queens or Stop Beating About the Bush or You Show Me Your Waterhole and I'll Show You Mine". Uh huh. That's "Carry On".
