VW Bus roof tent

The VW bus embodies the dream of freedom and adventure like no other vehicle. With a high-quality roof tent , you can take your camper to a new level of van life - without any complex bodywork or installing a pop-up roof. Gordigear helps you equip your bus with the right equipment for unforgettable travel experiences.

Gentle and cost-effective upgrade

Unlike installing a pop-up roof, which requires major intervention in the bodywork, a roof tent can be installed without damaging the structure. At only about a fifth of the cost of a pop-up roof, this solution not only offers maximum flexibility, but also significant savings. The characteristic silhouette of your VW bus is completely preserved.

Important information about roof load

The dynamic roof load plays a crucial role in the safe installation of a roof tent. It determines the maximum permissible load while driving and is significantly lower than the static roof load when stationary. When planning, be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions for your VW bus model and take the additional weight of the roof rack into account.

Please note : You can find these maximum permissible roof loads in your vehicle documents!

Optimal roof tent for the VW Bus or Bulli

The classic silhouette of the VW bus opens up a wide range of possibilities for your personal camping setup. Your vehicle becomes particularly flexible with two folding roof tents facing each other - opening to the front and back. This configuration transforms your bus into a spacious family accommodation where you can easily move between the tent rooms via the roof. Despite the extended living space, your setup remains compact enough for smaller pitches.

All of the models mentioned can also be installed with a side entrance up to 220 cm. For the ultimate vanlife experience, we recommend our hardshell roof tents:
