December 15: Win Cool Travel Prizes!

Posted on December 15th, 2009 by Andrea M. Rotondo in East Africa, Indian Ocean, North Africa, Southern Africa

Well, it’s finally our turn! The 2009 Travel Blog­gers’ Car­a­van wraps up today at LuxurySafariExperts.com. It’s been a fun two weeks and I’ve dis­cov­ered a lot of new travel blogs to watch through­out 2010. We hope you did too!

Today’s giveaway—a pair of Able Planet fold­ing noise-cancelling headphones—is cour­tesy of Magellan’s Travel Sup­plies. If you still need to pick up some last-minute hol­i­day gits, check out their web­site. Magellan’s offers some unique and very use­ful items for travelers.

If you’re trav­el­ing to Africa next year, you’ll want a pair of noise-reduction head­phones. They dra­mat­i­cally cut back on air­plane noise so you can lis­ten to music or a movie in com­fort. I tend to watch sev­eral movies on long-haul flights and noise-cancelling head­phones have saved the day on more than one occasion.

Win a Pair of Able Planet Fold­ing Noise-Cancelling Headphones

One lucky reader will be ran­domly cho­sen from all eli­gi­ble entries to win a pair of Able Planet Noise-Cancelling Head­phones. Con­test starts at mid­night on Decem­ber 15 and ends the same day at 11:59 pm. You must have a mail­ing address within the United States in order to be eli­gi­ble to enter and win.

How to Enter

Com­ment on this post between 12:00 am (mid­night) and 11:59 pm on Decem­ber 15, 2009. You’ll need to include your e-mail address so I may make con­tact if you are the win­ner. Good luck!

  40. Susan D

    My rel­a­tive has a pair of noise can­celling head­phones that she loves, espe­cially on long-haul flights, but it is not as space con­scious as these head­phones are. I am glad that LuxurySafariExperts.com is on the Travel Blog­gers Car­a­van. Until now, I had not heard of your site and, some­day, I’d like to do one (or sev­eral) safari tours in Africa, so I look for­ward to vis­it­ing your site again in the future.

  41. Jo Elizabeth

    We are plan­ning a walk­ing tour of the Amalfi Coast in the fall of 2010. These would be per­fect for me to lis­ten to my dream­ing of Italy music and to can­cel out the plan noise. Thank you for the opportunity.

  42. Andrea M. Rotondo

    Thanks to every­one who fol­lowed this year’s Travel Blog­gers’ Car­a­van! It’s been a lot of fun!

    The win­ner of these fold­ing noise-cancelling head­phones, cour­tesy of Magellan’s Travel Sup­plies, is Jen­nifer B. Con­grat­u­la­tions! —Andrea
