AfriTrail Ezy-Pitch 3 pop-up tent

R999, takealot.com

It’s easy to love the convenience of a pop-up tent (especially if you’ve experienced tent-erecting trauma in the past), and the Ezy-Pitch 3 is no different. Better still, it’s large enough to fit three people and aerodynamically shaped (like an igloo) so it doesn’t catch the wind. Warning: the dream of a pop-up tent is often tempered by the nightmare of packing it up. Watch YouTube videos to see the best way of getting it right.
