Our StoryLegend has it that the once reckless 136 Squadron Crew were forced to divert from their planned flight path over the dark continent of Africa. A tropical cyclone off the east coast plucked them from the sky and cast them deep into the jungle.
Marooned the youthful crew had no choice but to survive this ruthless endeavor, using only their wits and pieces of their plane they built a shelter to defend them from the wild beasts and hostile natives. After many years of trying to find their way home, they found themselves captivated more and more by this home which they had built in the jungle. Vowing never to leave this paradise which they were unfortunately blessed with, eventually making peace with the natives through trade and contacting the outside world only to invite them to share this new found home, their piece of Africa. Today the legend still lives on strong in our Backpackers which is now a Family run and owned accommodation, catering for backpackers from around the world who would like to get a taste of this wonderful slice of South Africa. |
