I'd like to do a tour in Rwanda, primarily to see and LEARN about the gorillas, but it seems you have no availability when I will be there. Ideally, I'd like to do something from the 31 July. If this is impossible then I'd could do something en-route back to Canada from South Africa ... from the 14th Aug. Can you help me?

Looking at our dates of availability, it seems the only date that would be close to working with your timeframe is our August 18-25 departure which has one space remaining.
