Hardshell or softshell?
A hardshell has a fibreglass, plastic or aluminium lid. It opens in a minute or two and stays dry and dust-free while you drive. The 22 hardshells here typically cost R43 993.
A softshell is a canvas tent that folds out over the side of the vehicle, usually with a ladder holding it up. It is cheaper and often sleeps more, but takes longer to pack, and wet canvas must be dried out at home. The 5 softshells here typically cost R16 660.
Whichever you choose, check the tent's weight against your roof's driving limit and your rack's rating. Our rooftop tent guide covers weights, racks and which tent we'd fit to a Land Cruiser.
Questions
How much does a rooftop tent cost in South Africa?+
On 8 November 2026, the 48 rooftop tents on this page cost from R14 700 to R93 052. The typical tent costs R39 995. Softshell (canvas) tents start at R14 700. Hardshell tents start at R28 995. The tent price does not include a roof rack, mounts or fitting, so budget for those too.
Should I buy a hardshell or a softshell rooftop tent?+
A hardshell opens and closes in a minute or two and keeps dust and rain out on the road, so it suits trips where you move camp most nights. A softshell (canvas) tent folds out over the side, often sleeps more people and costs less, but takes longer to pack away. Here, hardshells typically cost R43 993 and softshells R16 660.
Where can I buy a rooftop tent in South Africa?+
This page compares tents from Dometic, Alpha Accessories, Go-4LO, Ironman 4x4 Africa, Evorevo4x4, 4x4 Wholesalers Africa, Rhino-Rack SA, Wolf Customs and Express Bakkie Covers. Prices and stock are checked every day. Click a tent to see it and buy it on the store's own website.
Do I need a roof rack for a rooftop tent?+
Yes. Most tents bolt onto a roof rack, load bars or a canopy rack. Check two numbers before you buy: the tent's weight, and the roof load limit for driving in your vehicle's owner's manual. The rack must be rated for the tent too.
