Why buy a roof top tent?
You'll love the freedom that a roof top tent can bring as you reconnect with nature, and with each other.
Whether you're a weekend warrior or a seasoned wanderer, we're sure you'll love the experience.
Adventure
A backcountry adventure with a roof top tent brings freedom, fun and exhilaration like you've never experienced before. You'll never go back to the campground!
Freedom
No need to lock yourself into a campsite booking months in advance. You may not even know where you're sleeping from one day to the next. Just hop in your vehicle and go!
Fun
Roof top tents remind us of treehouses - great fun for grown-ups and kids alike. Your little darlings will love climbing the ladder, opening up the skylights for stargazing and cozying up at bedtime.
Exhilaration
There's nothing like getting away from the thrum of the city and out into nature, filling your senses with sights, sounds, smells, tastes and touches of our incredible outdoors.

Used Roof Top Tents Are Hitting the Market
At Vancouver Island Roof Top Tents, we know a good adventure leaves a few stories—and sometimes a little trail dust—behind. That’s why we’re excited to let you know that a selection of our used roof top tents are officially hitting the market. These are the same high-quality tents we trust for rugged Island adventures, now available at a reduced price.
The Story Behind Our 2nd Life Program
When a stove from our rental fleet stopped working because the manufacturer no longer supplied the right replacement parts, we had two choices: throw it away, or get creative. We chose creativity.
