South Africa Itinerary

outh Africa's sublime wonders are revealed during our nine-day safari. Our winning family will first head to Phinda Zuka Lodge for four nights in a private retreat surrounded by densely wooded hills and lush valleys in the western region of Phinda. Each day will offer bush safaris in an area where wildlife from lions and cheetah to herds of buffalo and elephants roams freely. At night guests dine under the stars. On day five, they'll board a charter flight headed to Ngala Game Lodge in Kruger National Park, the largest wildlife sanctuary in South Africa. Here their days will be filled with safaris and bush walks, followed by restful nights in safari tents on the banks of the Timbavati River.

America voted last month. The winner? The Paine family from Ottawa, Kansas. Their destination? New Zealand. The contest is now closed, but here is a great way for you to experience South Africa.
