The "Baptism of Christ" festival.
TRAVEL Directors has knocked $500 off trekking with the gorillas in Rwanda's rainforests in January.
Its African Dawn experience also includes attending the spectacular Timkat "Baptism of Christ" festival in Ethiopia and a picnic at the source of the Nile in Uganda.
Now priced from $19,950 per person twin share, the tour must be booked and deposited by August 30.
The exclusive 27-day journey departs Australia on January 4 and begins on the shores of Lake Victoria before boarding a boat to view the source of the Nile, then visiting chimps in the wild at Rwenzori before going onto Queen Elizabeth National Park for game viewing experiences.
