just photoshop it

go to Filter>Artistic>Cutout. And add these settings.
Number of Levels: 8
Edge Simplicity: 4 (The higher you go the more it looks like a vector. The lower your go the more it looks realistic.)
Edge Fidelity: 3

no program will do it as good as it should be.

best is to trace it by hand, illustrator.

illustrator has trace functionality, like flash, but the outcome is too complicated or too messy and not as clean as it should be when done by hand.
