SnugpakJourney Duo | Tent | 2 Person | 4000mm 100% Waterproof Outer (2023 Style)

All good. Waterproof and windproof. Perfect size for one person with luggage. Would be snug for 2. Easy to put up & take down. Highly recommended for biker or walker, as in a neat dry bag and light. Porch is a good size for a small tent.

First thing to say is that delivery from KitWizard was so fast- 2 days early! So, out of the box, everything was there. Tent footprint is fab, covers the whole bottom of the tent plus the entrance-probs roll that back to avoid too much mud/water getting on it. Build quality looks amazing, as I’ve been told to expect from Snugpak. My only suggestion to Snugpak would be to add more guying points on the fly sheet. I know it’s not positioned as a hardcore mountain tent, but one more each side would be good-there’s quite a distance between the back side points and the side ones as you can see in the picture. Other than that I can’t wait to put it to the test. Easy to pitch in my own.

Before I start my review I should say this was a gift and I don't know from where it was purchased.I have had my eye on this for a while so my son decided to surprise me. I wanted to write a review after I had used it a few times and not as it came out of the box.I am an avid wild camper, so I use it as a backpacking tent. The weight isn't an issue for me but the weight does bring some advantages in that its so strong! I think its listed as a 3 season tent but I have used in in deep winter (UK) and in winds over 55mph gusts. Its never caused me any concern at all.The tent is very roomy for one and it could take two with a squeeze but for me on my own its perfect, lots of room for me and my kit.Pro's:Space - There is lots of it for one personHeight - Nothing i dislike more than not being able sit up inside.Ease of erecting - Takes no time. OK its inner first but it not something that bothers me. I have put this up in rain as well.Strength - Its solid and when guyed out, its a lot more than I ever imagined it would be.Condensation - Simple truth is, I have never had any and I mean, any. I sleep with the rear vent open and the door vent half open, although last time I used my tent I closed the door vent as it was really cold.Quality - I believe its a well made tent but I would expect that from a company like Snugpak.Cons:Opening the Fly door zip from the bottom is fiddly but I cant see a way around that.I will video review this on my youtube channel once Coronavirus leaves us alone. mywildcampingadventures

I fell in love with the Cave for basecamp, long nights, or colder/rainy weather situations. So I decided to replace my "one person and gear, over-nighter" tent with a Snugpak as well. Tried the Scorpion 3. Also very nice, but still a little too much packed size and work for quick overnights. I don't like its tent-first assembly, and the solid, full-length pole sleeves are an annoyance, both setting it up and taking it down. Decided to try my luck with the Journey Duo. I think I found The One.The online reviews, unboxings, and setup vids by Snugpak "Ambassadors" and whatnot don't go into much detail, or even really much further than just parroting back the spec list. So maybe my list of Yays and Sniggles will help some others out.Yays• Two partial pole sleeves with pole clips for everything else. The three solid, full-length pole sleeves on the Scorpion 3 can be a pain, and are the biggest reason I didn't want to use it as my go-to over-nighter.• Just big enough inside for me and my gear, and at 87" long, head and feet do not touch (I'm 6') - most tents this size are about 60x80ish and head and/or feet will touch tent wall.• Seems like most tents are majority mesh, now - this tent only has the small, triangle vent on the foot end that cannot be closed. For me, this is a Plus. It will be warmer than mostly-mesh in warm weather, but it will also be warmer in cooler weather.• It has a ridgeline! Hang lights, socks/gloves, etc the length of the tent. I will probably get a hammock style ridgeline organizer for it.• Bonus - there are also 4 more interior grosgrain loops to hang lights or a tent attic.• Fitted ground sheet. And with elastic loops instead of grommets.• Plenty of stake points and guy outs. Included guy lines are reflective!• Rear vent on fly has velcro prop to keep it open - wish the Cave and Scorpion 3 vents had these.• Double zipper on fly door - nice to have fly door closed, but top of door opened for ventilation• Tent-first assembly! Nice to not use the fly if not needed. Scorpion is a pain to hook the tent to the fly every time; only slightly less pain to leave the inner tent connected all the time. I'll never want to use the fly without the tent, but I will want to use the tent without the fly. YMMV.• Comes in a decent dry bag. The horizontal-fill zippered bags that come with the Cave and Scorpion are fairly useless after unpacking the first time.• Stuffable! Nice to have a stuffable tent again - stuff the rain fly, tent, and ground sheet into the dry bag. Reverse when setting up the tent. The Cave and Scorpion need to be folded and rolled to be put back into their bags, or if using different bags, still really too big to be stuffed instead of rolled.Not showstoppers, but definite Sniggles• Inner door mesh is only top 3rd of the door - would have been nice for full mesh double door like Cave/Scorpion.• Internal pockets are not elastic.• Fly door ties, door mesh ties are not elastic• Internal door pocket does not have a tie, elastic or otherwise• Has a ring for hanging a light, but at the "foot" end of the tent. The ridgleline and 4 grosgrain loops make up for this.I got the Journey Duo just two weeks ago and have used it twice. I try and get out for at least a night every weekend. Looking forward to my next weekends with this tent!

Shipped quickly and I set up my tent to check before it's first outing. It is a fabulous piece of camping equipment. Construction is excellent with tough seams quality zips and poles and pegs. Iove the ridge line inside to hand items on and the footprint. Great size vestibule for cooking in a gale and storing gear or just watching the wildlife. When I put my sleep system in it it really is the perfect one man tent size wise. I really could feel the space around me on both sides and above your head. You will get two adults in it but it's going to be cosy which is totally fine for warmth and company but you will be compromised for space however definitely not to point of uncomfortable. I staked it out and I have the sense that this tent low profile design will she'd high wind heavy rain and snow with ease ensuring you feel confident to roll over and sleep through the worst if weather. Great design patterns with snail sherls imprinted across the outer fly.Weiggt is 7 lbs so lashed into you rock at the top makes foecthe perfect four season shelter.

This tent was brands new. 1 night of camping on a rainy night after hiking 20 miles of 3000’ elevation I was exhausted, cold and wet. Woke up after a few hours to a soaked down sleeping bag because the rain shell has a flat spot that filled with water and basically held a puddle over my head which dripped all night. Poor design.
