Trips of a lifetime, and for a good cause

The Naples Winter Wine Festival, the annual confab that raises millions of dollars for children's charities in Collier County, never fails to surprise with its over-the-top auction lots.

Consider these travel fantasies that will be auctioned at the festival in late January:

• Lot 16: In New York City over six days, get a private magic lesson with David Blaine, have lunch with Regis Philbin, work out with Kelly Ripa, and eat dinner with Judge Judy. Stay on Fifth Avenue, shop with a $10,000 gift card at Saks and get private tours of the Museum of Modern Art.

• Lot 47: Walk the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival, mingle with the stars at a private cocktail party and score prime viewing seats for the Grand Prix of Monaco.

• Lot 38: Fly to Kenya for a six-night safari with private guides and enjoy three different luxurious bush camps. Stay at Sala's Camp in the Maasai Mara, which overlooks the late summer migration of more than a million wildebeest.

• Lot 10: Two winning couples will fly to London in 2012 to enjoy the Olympic Games in category “A” seats to the opening ceremonies and daily Olympic events. A private tour of Parliament and tickets to a West End show are also included.

Couples will pay $7,500 for the privilege to bid on the lots at the by-invitation festival for 550 people in late January.
