Day 2 of our Christmas Calendar is here and we don’t stop with awesome give-aways! Congratulations Abby on taking home that amazing weekend in Austria.
I ask you: what is the best part of traveling? Beautiful nature? Meeting awesome people? Amazing architecture? All these things are great and inherent to travel but there is one thing that will burn itself into your memory, more than a wonderful hotel or a nice dinner at a restaurant can: it’s those special experiences. The ones that make your friends jealous when you post about them on Instagram. That will make your family speechless when you tell them the story over Christmas dinner. The same stories you may well tell your kids one day.
That one time in New Zealand I rafted down the world’s highest raftable waterfall. Another time I saw the Northern Lights in Iceland, a couple of years before that I rode a canoe through Laos – it’s those stories that last a lifetime and that I like to remember, when it comes to appreciating how interesting my life can be.
How wonderful is it that one little startup called Tinggly.com has put it upon itself to gather all these experiences and hand them to you on a silver platter single website! Travelettes has partnered up with Tinggly on the occasion of our Christmas Calendar and we are excited to be giving away an Ultimate Voucher worth €249. What will this get you?
How about you and a friend go on a houseboat cruise in India?
See the Northern Lights in Iceland?
Or maybe go on a 2-day tour along the Mekong Delta in Vietnam? I guarantee that all the above will be unforgettable.
Whether you pick one of those or prefer rafting in Austria, bungee-jumping in New Zealand or taking a cooking class somewhere fabulous is entirely up to you.
The way it works: Tinggly currently offers 753 magical, hand-picked experiences from around the world, all of which come at one of 3 prices: €69, €99 and €249. You simply buy a voucher and then spend it on whatever experience suits your fancy. Have you ever heard of the age-old saying to “Collect experiences, not things”? Well, maybe this Christmas it should be all about that.
So what do you have to do to win this?

Seeing the northern light has been on my list for so long....
I'm all tinggly just thinking about all these cool experiences. It is definitely these types of memories that stick with you and make you feel like a globe trotting adventuress ;-) I'd love to try the 'Encode Your Own Crystal on the Red Rocks in Arizona' experience. Or go dogsledding in Sweden, or chase Aurora (Borealis) in Alaska. Or or or.... So hard to choose! Very fun contest btw!
my number one wish would be to see a Cheeta in it's natural habitat instead of the zoo. It had been my favorite animal since I can remember.
I love the idea of the house boat in India. I have never been to India, and this experience would be so unique - to see local life and feel part of the culture.
Austria is one of the most beautiful countries! I would love the opportunity to get to spend some time there! Our anniversary is coming up and would love to give him this as a gift! We both work full time at a restaurant just to make ends meet so this would be phenomenal!
The experience I've always dreamed of having is watching Northern Lights in Alaska. Actually, Alaska is my biggest dream in terms of traveling. As a huge nature lover, I'd give everything I have to see this part of the world and explore the beauty of its forests, mountains ans rivers that form all together one of the most stunning landscapes. I can imagin myself hiking alone...listening to my heart beat and the sound of nature...no rush, no problems...just pure peace. Plus Northern Lights, one of the phenomena that you can't just simply explain, you have to experience it to feel the grandiosity of our planet and get to know that nature is art.
I would love to win this to be able to travel to new places. If I won I would most want to be able to go somewhere where I would be able to see the northern lights in there full effect!
Since a friend of mine had taken a couple of months long yoga class in India it has become one of the things on my to-do list.
Ever since we were little girls my sister and I have dreamed of riding Icelandic horses in Iceland, so I'm pretty sure we'd love the Viking Horse Riding and Blue Lagoon Direct Combination Experience for Two :-)
I'm struggling, I wish to discover everything ! Northern lights are a deep dream, but... diving in Cacun or learn brasilian recipes in Rio... or I could just offer it for Christmas to my brother and his girlfriend who are currently picking plums in Australia ! A chance for them to experiment something more exciting in this awesome country ! Cross my fingers
It would be handy to fulfil my ambition to see the Amazon and all its wildlife
I like to do crazy things, but things you can actually influence. So no bungee jumping. Instead, hiking via ferratas and such things. So when I saw the canyoning adventure in Utah on Tinggly I got super excited! The scenery looks breathtaking. This must be the ultimate experience!
I've actually always dreamed of seeing the Northern Lights in Iceland! Although I'm sure if I won this I would have a pretty tough time choosing:)
Seeing the Northern lights has long been on my bucket list! I'm sure it must feel special to gaze at them while being surrounded by beautiful landscape. It sure would be a lifetime well treasured memory. I would be so greatful and it would be an amazing experience if I could see them for real! :)
I love to travel and experience all kinds of new things. From zip lining to skydiving, from a foreign country cooking class to scuba diving or snorkeling at the most tropical destinations. Traveling is amazing in more then just one way, but it's true, that those special experiences are the ones sticking to your mind the longest and always making the best stories to tell.
And tinggly just seems to have it all! Just scrolling through the site gets me excited and keeps me adding more and more points to my bucket list.
But one thing that’s on the very top since a pretty long time is learning how to surf. So the private surf lesson in San Diego would definitely be more then amazing. Another one would be the jetpack experience in Las Vegas, which would probably make the perfect gift for my very favorite travel buddy’s 21st birthday during our road trip on the US West coast next summer..
And then obviously seeing the Northern Lights in Iceland or Alaska would be just a dream coming true…
I have always wanted to stay in a jungle lodge in South America somewhere, probably in Bolivia.
I haven't quite gotten there yet but I am heading to Europe this winter so I'm sure there are some amazing experiences I can find over there :)
So many travel experiences in my dreams. At the moment, I'm dreaming to visit my adopted baby elephant, Faraja at the David Sheldrick Wildlife center in Kenya.
I am dreaming about a safari tour in South Africa. This has been on my wishlist for quite some time and I can't wait to make it happen one day soon.
The experience that I have always dreamed about is seeing the Northern Lights! It is at the very top of my (very extensive) bucket list and I know it would be an absolutely unforgettable accomplishment! I would be grateful forever if I won this prize!
Seeing the northern lights for the first time!
