The Best Experiences to Gift – As Chosen By You
In a world where material possessions often clutter our lives, giving experiences instead of things is becoming more and more popular. It’s all about the excitement, the fun, and the memories you make that will last a lifetime, rather than just owning more stuff. While there are so many incredible experiences out there to choose from, there are definitely some stand outs that prove to be most popular. Our Chuffed Gifts offer hundreds of options for the gift recipient to choose from but there are certain types of experiences chosen more often. So, let’s dive into the top pick for experiences to gift as chosen by you – these are the most popular experiences hand-picked by thousands of lucky Chuffed gift recipients!
Relaxation: Hot pools, spas and serenity
When life gets hectic, there’s nothing quite like sinking into the soothing warmth of hot pools or indulging in a luxurious spa treatment. These experiences offer a break from the hustle and bustle, allowing people to relax, unwind, and rejuvenate. From private hot tubs, relaxing spa experiences and special mud treatments, we aren’t short of choice all around NZ for a relaxing experience that’s always a winner.
Adventures on the water
Getting out on the water is always a kiwi favourite with our stunning lakes and beautiful oceans. Setting sail on the open seas offers an exhilarating experience like no other. Whether it’s cruising along a harbour or lake, or embarking on a sailing expedition, getting out on the water is always a top pick amongst hundreds of our Chuffed experiences.
Wine tasting and culinary delights
People love to eat and drink so indulging in exquisite wines and gourmet cuisine is a popular choice for many experience enthusiasts. Wine tasting (or spirit tasting) experiences provide an opportunity to explore different varieties, learn about the winemaking process, and savour carefully crafted wines. While unique dining experiences like lakeside fine dining or Christchurch Tramway dining are something a bit different that are some of the hot picks.

From ziplining through the treetops to kayaking the coastline, these adventures offer an adrenaline-fueled escape from the ordinary. Whether rolling in a ball down a hill or biking rugged terrain, these sorts of experiences push boundaries, challenge limits, and leave participants with unforgettable memories, which makes them some of the most redeemed Chuffed experiences.
Connecting with nature
There’s something magical about connecting with nature and experiencing the wonders of the natural world up close. Animal encounters allow individuals to connect with the creatures that share our planet and see the beauty of our landscapes. These experiences foster a deeper appreciation for nature’s beauty and diversity, instilling a sense of wonder and awe that stays with participants long after the encounter has ended.
Exploring film and fantasy
Tours exploring some interesting places unique to NZ have also proven to be super popular experience gifts amongst thousands of Chuffed gift recipients. Visiting iconic movie sets and behind-the-scenes studios offers a glimpse into the magic of filmmaking.
