We provide two types of tents: canvas and hard-shell.
Below, you can access detailed information about each type to help you decide which one is ideal for your trip.
Canvas tents are most used by travellers and is the most cost-effective option.
Canvas tents are made from canvas and has a cover that needs to be removed before it is pitched.
To pitch the tent, it must be opened manually by 180 degrees. It does not require much muscle power since the ladder is used as a lever.
The opposite action is used to set up the tent. The side canvas must be tucked in properly to close the tent and to cover it again with the rooftop cover.
It is ideal for 1 or 2 adults per tent.
One or two of these tents can be fitted on a double cab vehicle.
Usually, a 1.2 x metre and a 1.4 metre tent can be fitted on the same vehicle. Length when opened 2.4m
