Tiki Pilot is a Tiki enemy that appears in Donkey Kong Country Returns and Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D. It is a drum-like Tiki that can be distinguished from others by having three feathers over its head and holding a stick with a Chomp-like end on the top.

Tiki Pilot was involved in stealing Donkey Kong's banana hoard along with the rest of the Tiki Tak Tribe. Tiki Pilot commanded airships to transport the treasure and send it to their maximum chief, Tiki Tong. Tiki Pilot only appears early in the first level Jungle Hijinxs, where it appears in the background piloting an airship with a large pile of the stolen bananas. Tiki Pliot also taunts Donkey Kong for being out of reach toward it and his banana hoard before flying off.
