The Latitude Explorer — Built for Big Adventures 🌦️⛺️

Meet the Latitude Explorer, the rooftop tent built for those who chase adventure — come rain, shine, or sideways drizzle. Crafted from tough aluminium, this sleek design is ready to take on rugged coastlines, misty peaks, and muddy lanes with ease.

When it’s time to set up camp, just pop the gas struts and your home for the night is ready in seconds. No faff, no stress, no battling with poles in the wind.

Inside, an extra-deep base houses a 70mm thick foam mattress and anti-condensation mat, giving you hotel-level comfort under the stars. There’s room for two, and you can even store your bedding inside when it’s closed — freeing up space in your vehicle and making setup effortless.

The Explorer includes side accessory channels and a pair of roof bars, perfect for carrying your bikes, paddleboards, kayaks, or solar panels.

Tough. Quick. Comfortable.
The Latitude Explorer isn’t just a rooftop tent — it’s your all-weather basecamp for exploring every corner of the UK and beyond 🌄🚙

Opens in 30 Seconds!

Thanks to the magic of gas struts, popping open your roof tent is a total breeze. Just undo the latches, give it a little push… and voilà! The tent practically unfolds itself. Packing it back down? Just as effortless. An elastic cord swoops in to tuck the tent neatly as it folds, making setup and pack-up feel almost like a superpower.

Extra Practicality

The Explorer roof tent comes ready for action with roof bars already mounted on top—perfect for loading up all your adventure gear. Bikes? Check. Kayaks? Absolutely. Roof boxes? You got it. Solar panels? Why not! They can handle up to 85kg when closed and 25kg when open, so you can bring along all the goodies without a worry.

Inside the tent, a built-in LED light with three dimmable settings keeps things cozy and bright—just plug it into a battery pack.

And because every adventurer needs a place for all the essentials, there’s overhead storage to stash your camping must-haves safely and within reach.

Slim Design

The Explorer model comes in at only 20cm tall, excluding the roof bars. A small amount of bedding can still be stored inside the Roof Tent, such as a couple of sleeping bags or a lightweight quilt.

Full dimensions can be found in the table below.

Free Fitting - On Us!

Swing by our HQ and let us show you the ropes! Our Free Fitting service isn’t just about mounting your roof tent on your car, van, or 4x4—it’s a full hands-on adventure. We’ll guide you through the easiest way to take it off, store it safely, and even show you the simple steps to open and close your new rooftop like a pro.

Endless Views

Take in your surroundings in the comfort of your roof tent thanks to the unique window layout. With three large windows/entrances on the sides, plus a window panel at the narrow end for light and air flow.

Then, when you want a great night's sleep zip-up all the entrances to keep the morning light at bay for those well-earned lie-ins, typically not achievable when camping!

Functional Storage

The Latitude Explorer is packed with handy storage solutions for your must-haves and camping clutter.

Keep essentials close with the roof storage pouch, with a clear panel to place your phone or tablet in for movie night! There are also storage pockets at the narrow end of the tent.

You can neatly tuck some bedding away inside the tent, plus a hanging shoe bag keeps those muddy boots outside where they belong.

You can also utilise the accessory roof bars by adding a roof box on top.

Questions? Let us help.

If you have chosen to fit your Roof Tent yourself, you will have a guide with step-by-step instructions on how to assemble and install your Roof Tent. Alternatively, you can come to our HQ in Frome, Somerset, and our expert team will fit it for you free of charge.
We have video fitting guides on the respective product pages.
The roof load limit can be a confusing subject, as many vehicles and roof bar limits are around 75kgs. “But the weight of the roof tent plus me and any others inside will be much more than this” we hear you say.
However, don’t worry!
These weight limits are dynamic load ratings. This means it’s the weight limit when the vehicle is in motion, so when you and others are inside the roof tent when it’s stationary, this figure isn’t relevant and the static load rating is substantially higher and not an issue.
The forces applied whilst the vehicle is moving, such as air resistance at speed, braking, cornering etc are far more than when your stationary and inside the roof tent.
Yes. The Latitude Explorer is waterproof and highly weather-resistant, thanks to its heavy-duty rip-stop poly-cotton fabric with a waterproof and UV-resistant coating. Every model has a hydrostatic head rating of 3000 mm, meaning the fabric can handle heavy rain. Construction details like double-stitched seams with silicone backing and durable travel covers further protect against water intrusion while in transit or during storms.
Yes. The Pioneer Explorer is made for all British weathers, with a wind rating to Gale Force 8, so you can be cosy even when it’s windy.
We have designed brackets to seamlessly integrate our Wingman Awnings. We have a video here.
Yes you can leave our Roof Tents on all year round, alternatively you can store it flat or up on its side somewhere dry.
