What we’re about
Welcome to Tuki Tiger Adventures
Your portal for day hikes, trips & fully organised, outdoor adventures.
In partnership with Tuki Tours and Top Notch Hikes
As an active London based group our events & excursions are geared towards anyone who enjoys hiking, wants to have fun improving their fitness, loves new experiences, appreciates visiting beautiful places, or simply adores travelling - with the optional benefit of meeting new people on exciting, bespoke designed, expertly guided adventures.
You will find a varied range of events to entice your lust for new thrills, from relaxing countryside walks, to army tough hikes designed to push participants to their physical limits, to other forms of outdoor adventures, such as Kayaking or even Wine Tasting!
Ultimately we’re about embracing nature, escaping reality, seeking adventure - like-minded individuals, exploring and enjoying together! Real freedom lies in the wilderness, until you step into the unknown, you don’t know what you are truly capable of.
Do you yearn for more?
WHO IS TUKI TIGER?
As the founder of Tuki Tiger Adventures, I am an experienced hiker, walk leader & qualified fitness instructor - I have had the good fortune to enjoy the outdoors & extensive travel during my life & would like to share this passion with you. My emphasis is very much on devising highly creative hiking trails & organising fun, well-structured packaged trips & social events, where prominence is placed on making new friends in a joyful & relaxed environment.
If you’re seeking to improve your general health, crave exciting, passionately designed, expertly guided hikes & adventures in the great outdoors, with lively people from a range of cultural backgrounds, then a Tuki Tiger Adventures event is the one for you!
WHAT ADVENTURES DO WE ORGANISE?
The UK and the World at large has a plethora of hidden beauty and delightful treats. With the extensive knowledge garnered from decades of hiking & travel, it is the mission of Tuki Tiger Adventures to devise exciting days out & group trips for all to enjoy in a dynamic fun environment.
Day Hikes
We offer multiple day hikes of varying length & difficulty, ranging from leisurely trails geared towards the majority, to uniquely, very demanding days out with multiple ascents at a fast pace - very challenging & not for the faint hearted!
We visit locations across the whole of the East, South East & eastern edge of the South West, frequenting such beauty spots as the Chiltern Hills, High Weald, Kent Downs, South Downs, Surrey Hills & numerous coastal trails, brimming with serene peaceful countryside, challenging undulations, stunning flora & fauna, & nearly always accompanied by spectacular panoramic views; you decide what level of adventure you prefer!
Guests can expect a professionally organised & competently guided outdoor adventure. With extensive man hours, every single trail is thoroughly researched, pre-walked (recce) & custom designed to be as unique & creative as possible.
A hike grading system is used where TIGER PAWS are used to depict the nature of a day’s events. Please click on the link below for further info. It is VERY IMPORTANT you carefully understand the physical nature of each adventure to avoid disappointment as some hikes are for the strong & experienced only.

Weekend Escapes
We offer package getaways that usually involve 3-5 days of adventurous pursuits – sometimes with multiple hike options to choose from each day, possibly adrenaline packed activities, maybe an arranged tour to a site of interest, or even the occasional themed dinner for a fun-packed, social evening of entertainment.
Accommodation, occasionally travel and whatever form of entertainment planned – guided walks, a tour of a cave, kayaking down a river etc. – will always be included in the package price, or stated as an optional extra where applicable.
Our lodging could be as basic as bunk beds in a dorm room, to luxury hotel surroundings; price will reflect the quality of premises being used for the trip.

WHAT ABOUT SAFETY?
Safety is always our number one priority. Although we can never make the outdoor environment entirely safe, with our experience, training and meticulous planning we aim to minimise the risk.
Tuki Tiger Adventures day activities are led by very experienced event leaders with an Outdoor Activity First Aid qualification or similar.
Generally, event numbers are restricted to ensure activities are managed in the most effective manner possible for maximum guest enrichment.

HILLY FITNESS WALK

Link - TRAIL PHOTOSThe South Downs, stretching from the ancient cathedral city of Winchester in the west, first capital of England, through to the white chalky cliffs of the Seven Sisters and Beachy Head at Eastbourne in the east, this magnificent national park offers approximately 100 miles of pristine hiking terrain with spectacular, panoramic views to the sea and across the Weald.
Which is very apt being as this is also the birth place of Tuki Tiger Adventures, Origins being the inaugural hike I led several years ago, and still a cracker to walk to this present day.
