Hilton Honors Experiences recently connected multi-platinum award-winning drummer and rock icon Travis Barker with young aspiring drummer, Tyler, for a private lesson at Barker’s personal studio. This amazing opportunity is just one of many that Hilton Honors Experiences has recently brought to life for Honors Members.

At first I couldn’t believe that my mom could get a Travis Barker drum lesson with her Hilton Honors Points, but it was real, and it was really exciting, said Tyler, a 14-year-old from Charleston, South Carolina. [He] was a really good teacher. He taught me how to be more authentic in my playing.

The Hilton Honors Experiences platform allows members to put their Points where their passions are, whether that’s sports, the great outdoors, exclusive elevated offerings at Hilton properties around the globe or music. Hilton Honors Members can use their Points to bid on experiences posted on the Hilton Honors Experiences website, which lists new curated packages, including a chance to play Topgolf with country artist Sam Hunt, meet the world champions of mixed-doubles figure skating, Sui Wenjing and Han Gong, sip cocktails under the sea at Conrad Maldives Rangali Island and more.

For a look inside Tyler’s musical experience, check out the video below.
