Redverz Atacama Expedition Motorcycle Tent — Green
The Atacama is a motorcycle expedition tent built for riders who go places.
Not a weekend warrior tent. Not a glamping setup. A purpose-built shelter designed around a full-size adventure tourer — panniers, luggage and all — that sets up solo in under five minutes and holds its shape when everything else is moving.
It's currently running in the Simpson Desert in Australia, through sub-Saharan Africa, across South America, and on routes through Europe and North America. Riders use it because it works. Because it's still working 14, 15, 16 years later. Because when the weather turns, it doesn't.
This is the tent you buy once.
The Garage
Two opposing J-doors open wide enough to ride a full-size adventure tourer straight in. Panniers on. No unloading in the rain. No gear left outside.
Standing headroom throughout. Use it as your living room, your workshop, your drying room. When the weather closes in, this is where you eat, plan, and wait it out.
It's not a vestibule. It's a room.
Sleeping Bay
Rectangular floor plan. Vertical walls. Enough space to sleep three, use cots for two, or spread out solo with room for gear.
Separate entry and exit doors mean two riders never have to climb over each other. Flow-through ventilation runs air from one end to the other — essential in heat.
Configurations
— 1 Up — full space to yourself. Gear stays inside. No compromises.
— 2 Up — queen-size footprint. Separate doors. Each rider has their own exit.
— 3 Up — tight but workable. Move gear to the garage bay.
Built for Real Weather
4000mm hydrostatic head on the fly. 10,000mm on the floor.
To put that in context: most camping tents rate between 1500–3000mm. The Atacama's floor rating is more than three times that — because when water pools around a tent in a storm, the floor is where it gets in.
Factory-sealed seams throughout. Bathtub floor construction. This isn't expedition-grade waterproofing as a marketing claim — it's what you need when the weather doesn't care about your schedule.
The Frame
Aircraft-grade aluminium poles, pre-bent to shape. The hoop design creates vertical inner walls — that's what gives you the headroom and the structural integrity in high winds.
Flexible enough to absorb gusts. Rigid enough to hold shape through the night. The frame is why this tent is still standing after 15 years of hard use in the hands of people who ask a lot of their gear.

Atacama Tent
The best tent I have ever owned. Ease of set up, packs to right size on a bike. Been in torrential downpours and me, my gear AND my bike have stayed snug and dry. My favorite way to sleep is to use the screens on both big doors of the sleeping area so I can look out at my bike. The sleeping area stays nice and ventilated and I slept like a baby. Some might think you're crazy to spend this much on a tent. Don't think twice or second guess. Do it. You won't regret it.

I just needed to write to tell you how much we love the Atacama tent.
I just needed to write to tell you how much we love the Atacama tent. I took a group of 8 on a motorcycle camping trip to Alaska last summer and after a lot of research bought and recommended your tent. 2 of the other couples followed my recommendations and purchased the Atacama Expedition tent. The other did not. Needless to say, we all LOVED the tent. It went up and down quick and easy, the garage was great to store our gear nice and dry, plus a great place to be able to get out of the sleeping quarters, still be private and be able to dress as needed. The garage fit a table and chair for us! (It was dry and warmer than the outside). The couple that didn't purchase... well, they had to replace their tent half way through the trip after a catastrophic failure.

love this tent
I have been admiring this tent at rallies for quite awhile. I have been camping my whole life and have finally become tired of crawling an my hands and knees in small backpacking tents. This tent is like a stadium inside. I only wish I had ordered it sooner. Very high quality and well thought out features. Watched all the videos on the website on setup and found them helpful. My only complaint, if you can call it that is better detailed info on how to pack this tent up neatly with less effort.

The best tent I have ever owned
Followed your advise and put the old model Redverz Atacoma on ebay, almost immediately had order at initial asking price. This is by the best tent I have ever owned or used despite the early design iteration items you have addressed in the later design evolutions. My companions all converted I think to the ease of setup, functionality, and ability to stow in remarkably small package despite rather palatial footprint. The large size is the key advantage and sometimes requires very creative accommodation in the National/State parks out west that have rather small camp sites for tents. It always fit though even when sharing with another tent.. I love the continuous engineering improvement you have made to this already tremendous series of tents, again well done and thanks.
