Gift an Experience Anywhere in the World
Personal and creative gifts are my specialty but sometimes, okay most times, I leave it to the last minute and scramble for a great idea. Wouldn’t it be fun to be able to gift hot air ballooning or river rafting or a day touring local wineries where your gift recipient is located? With just a few minutes online, you can! Tinggly is the ultimate gift with over 600 experiences in more than 100 countries. You buy the experience box and your gift recipient gets to pick how they want to use it over the next two years. Maybe they’ll go on a honeymoon adventure, book an excursion during a vacation or simply use it in their hometown – the gift can be used how they want making it the best and most creative they’ve ever received.
Your Tinggly experience gift can be sent by email after purchase so it’s perfect for last minute surprises. It can also be sent anywhere in the world by DHL worldwide delivery or you can print it, wrap it and gift in person. Weddings, birthdays, holidays and more – there really isn’t a wrong time to gift an experience of choice.
I looked over the experiences map and found many my family could incorporate into our existing travel plans. There are quite a few we could drive to or spend adventuring where we currently live and then there were hundreds where I would gladly turn the experience into a week away from home.
Each experience box gift is for 1-2 recipients so this is perfect for couples but you can easily pay to add your children to the reservation when booking the experience to make it a family adventure too.

10 bucket list items we could check off with Tinggly experiences
Grand Canyon Skywalk
I’ve always wanted to visit the Grand Canyon and see the Skywalk! Imagine walking out over the grand canyon on a glass bottom for a stunning view and adrenaline packed adventure. The Grand Canyon West Rim Skywalk experience includes tickets to the Skywalk, transportation and opportunity to see the Hoover Dam and Joshua Tree Forest and tickets to see the Wild West Show at the Hualapai Ranch.
Learn to Surf
We are in Southern California often but have never learned to surf. Surf Lessons in San Diego is an experience my entire family would love. My oldest daughter loves to boogie board but has yet to try surfing; this would make an excellent gift for her and her dad!
Shark Encounter
Diving in a shark cage in Hawaii is an adventure we have always talked about but never really made the plans to do it. The Extreme Hawaii Shark Encounter would definitely add some adrenaline to our next Hawaii family vacation.
See the Northern Lights
Both my daughters have Aurora Borealis nightlights in their bedrooms. What an amazing experience it would be to see them live! The Alaskan Northern Lights Experience includes transportation to a lodge for a great indoor viewing opportunity.
Visit the Giza Pyramids
This one speaks for itself. I’d love to plan a visit to Egypt and add the Giza Pyramids, Sphinx and Sakkara experience. The 8 hour tour includes air conditioned transportation, an English speaking Egyptologist and a day full of history.
Amalfi Coast
My friends were just married at the Amalfi Coast and their photos were absolutely breathtaking. I’d love to visit for an Amalfi Coast experience from Naples. Your experience includes transportation, visiting all the big destinations, an English speaking tour guide and light lunch.
Learn how to Stomp Grapes for Wine
Forget just touring a winery, I’m going to learn how to stomp grapes for wine in France! The Grape Stomping experience immerses you in one of France’s oldest traditions. The experience includes touring a working family winery, learning how to crush grapes and an authentic French buffet.
Race an Aston Martin
Driving an Aston Martin on a British race track would be an ultimate gift for my husband. The Thrilling Experience with Aston Martin across the United Kingdom has always been on his bucket list and includes a driving tutorial, safety briefing, Aston Martin experience and practice laps on purpose-built tracks.
Snorkel in the Great Barrier Reef
I can’t imagine a better place to visit for snorkeling and because we haven’t done it yet, the Full-Day Great Barrier Reef Snorkel experience is one our family would love. The day includes everything you need to get up close with the best of the Great Barrier Reef.
Lunch with an Astronaut
With two space obsessed daughters, I can’t imagine not doing the Dine with an Astronaut in Florida experience now that I know it exists. The adventure includes admission to the Kennedy Space Center for two days, entrance to all exhibits including the Space Shuttle Atlantis and lunch with an actual astronaut.

I would much rather have an experience than an actual gift. so I am LOVING this! What a great way to give someone the gift of memories.
Any of these would make such an amazing and special gift! Anyone would love it. Great idea for those already have enough stuff.
This seems to be very popular with newlyweds right now. I have been to several weddings where you could help with travel to the place they want to visit. Wonderful gift idea.
I wish I could gift a trip to the Beach to my sister as she works so hard and deserves some time away. As well as a Boys Vacation for my son and husband where they could go and just have fun with no worries.
Now that is such a good idea! I would love to give gifts to my relatives that live overseas and I never really understood how I can do that. This is perfect for that.
This is my first time hearing of Tinggly. It sounds like the perfect gift for so many people I know. I can’t wait to look further into possibly purchasing it.
Tinggly sounds like the way to go to have an adventure anywhere in the world. I love the choices you suggested and they are all different but amazing to actually experience.
I have always said that experiences are worth much more than things. I try to gift experiences to friends whenever possible.
I love to travel and treasure new experiences, so Tinggly is my idea of a perfect gift. Nothing is more valuable than making memories that will last a lifetime.
I would LOVE to get a gift like this. My daughter would enjoy the shark encounter. All of these activities look like a blast.
What a wonderful gift especially for the younger ones. It’s so nice to give them gifts that will allow them to experience more of the world. They’re also going to learn more about themselves!
It would be fun to put together a bucket list of ideas and be able to fund them, too! Having a way to gift experiences is pretty cool. Definitely my kind of gift!
This looks like so much fun! I would love to gift someone (or be gifted myself) with an experience! Thanks for the heads up!
I love giving gifts of experience. It sounds like Tinggly has some awesome ones to offer like the Hawaii shark cages.
OMG! These are amazing experiences. I’ve never heard of Tinggly but the Extreme Hawaii Shark Encounter and the Grape Stomping experience in France would definitely be something I’d love to check out.
wow, this is a pretty nice gift idea. I would love to give some to my close friends who love to travel. Thanks for sharing!

We love to travel abroad and local. Our lifetime plan is to travel across the globe. The map is a perfect fit for every travel traveler to inspire them to go distance more.
We have been trying to give our kids experiences instead of things! I think it makes everyone a little happier!
