Founder and Story

Pete Tupper is a British outdoor education professional with many years of experience managing adventure companies in China and Asia. Imagine’s unique approach to adventure design has its foundations in Pete’s passion for creative, engaging activities, action sports, and a strong belief in the benefits of an outdoor lifestyle.

Originally a professional ski instructor in Austria, he moved to China with a bachelor degree in Mandarin Chinese, and begun offering weekend ski trips for families in Beijing. Soon he created Imagine, and expanded the range and scale of activities and locations over the years. His mission is to inspire development in people through action and adventure, by maintaining a reliable and well-known adventure brand, to promote outdoor lifestyle and culture.

Adventure education-related videos, articles and documentaries featuring Pete can be found on various channels online.
