On top of the world, on the top of your car.
Made for adventure travel, the Thule Approach M is equally at home on rugged, off-the-beaten-path trips as it is on local weekend getaways with family or friends. Mount it quickly, sleep high above the ground, and wake up to big-sky views through panoramic windows and skylights.
Quick set up for easy getaways
Innovative, lockable mounting brackets let you install the tent on your roof in minutes — around half the time of traditional rooftop tents. Once you arrive, simply unzip the travel cover, unfold the base, and you’re ready to camp in under 3 minutes.
Comfort close to nature
A modern tent shape maximises liveable space while large windows and roof panels bring the outside in. The included dual-layer foam mattress provides a comfortable night’s sleep, and the removable rain cover adapts to changing weather.
What’s in the box
Approach M tent, dual-layer foam mattress, telescopic ladder, travel cover, removable rain cover, mesh panels/curtains, lockable mounting brackets.
