Tikitoa 

Kia ora — we’re Rick and Kendyl, the couple behind Tikitoa Adventures.
 
What started as a shared love for hiking and storytelling has grown into something much bigger and deeper: a cinematic journey through Aotearoa, New Zealand, where wild landscapes, ancestral stories, and special moments merge into something unforgettable.

From documenting lost battlefields and sacred pā sites to sharing coffee and chocolate on windswept summits, we’re building something that feels raw, real, and deeply connected.
 
We don’t just walk trails — we walk through time, culture, and connection. Now, with a rapidly growing audience of passionate explorers, history buffs, and nature lovers, we’re opening the door to meaningful collaborations and partnerships that go beyond surface-level promotion.
 
Our videos don’t just entertain — they inspire curiosity, spark kōrero, and offer people a new lens on this incredible country we're blessed to call home. We’ve carved out a unique niche, and our followers trust us to guide them toward experiences and products that are authentic, purposeful, and unforgettable.
 
Whether you’re a tourism brand, outdoor gear company, sustainable food producer, or cultural organisation, we’re excited to explore ways we can uplift each other’s kaupapa.
 
We don’t do shouty ads or hollow promos.
What we do is story — grounded, intentional, and visually rich.

When we believe in something, our audience knows it’s the real deal. That’s the kind of trust we’ve worked hard to build — and we’re excited to share it with like-minded collaborators.
 
We’re not interested in generic deals or mass-market campaigns. We’re looking for partners who believe in legacy, who value storytelling, and who are building something special.
If that’s you — whether you’re keen to sponsor an episode, develop an affiliate relationship, or co-create something entirely new — we’d love to hear from you.
 
Let’s build something bold.
Something grounded in wairua.
Something unforgettable.
Something we’re all proud of — something with legacy.
