To apply for consideration, simply go to the Visit South Africa Facebook page and click on the very prominent banner on display there. After that, simply fill out the application form that downloads to your computer, submit it, and keep your fingers crossed. The application deadline is November 28th and if you're selected for the next round, you must be able to attend an audition in either New York or Lose Angeles in early December. The couple that is ultimately selected, must also be available to travel from January 20th - February 5th of 2012.
While in South Africa, the winning couple will stay at luxury resorts, visit the country's famous wine country, surf and spot whales along the coast, and go on a wildlife safari. All of their adventures will be filmed of course, and eventually turned into the commercial, which will air in a number of countries around the world.
Having visited South Africa earlier this year, I can tell you that this is a great opportunity. The country is simply spectacular and I definitely recommend it as a destination for anyone looking to mix culture, luxury and adventure. It sounds like this trip will pack in a lot of activity and give the winners a chance to really see everything the country has to offer.
