Thinking of investing in a home away from home? Here are the 10 most innovative mini caravans and trailers that money can buy. If there were ever a billboard sign about rugged and durable off-road accommodation, then indeed something developed to tackle the wild savannah of Africa would be it. The Bhoma 4x4 Off-Road Caravan is one handy bit of equipment. Bridging the gap between traditional caravan and compact trailer, it still sleeps up to 5 people without feeling like you're towing a semi behind your car. A handy pop-top canopy and innovative fold-out sides really increase the real estate when you've found your ideal camping spot and want to deploy for the night. It's specifically designed and built with challenging terrain in mind. It features a live axle, heavy-duty suspension, and larger all-terrain tires to handle anything you can throw at it. It's cozy inside, with a complete and functional fold-out kitchen. Considering that it also comes equipped with an outside toilet, and it's your home away from home. Cinderella took a pumpkin carriage to the ball to meet Prince Charming but had to hurry home before midnight. If she had a Crawler TRC 458 Nordic, then surely, she could have set up camp on the front lawn of the castle for a month. It can only be described as a tank on wheels. Built on a galvanized steel frame and covered in relatively light but still heavy-duty aluminum alloy panels, the Crawler is well suited to braving the bleak but beautiful, alpine conditions of the far Northern countries. Unlike many in its class, the cooking and dining are done inside. Thanks to a smart modular bedding system that doubles as a couch. You won't find any easy-to-break plastic or timber parts inside either – it's fit for purpose. Durability? Check. Reliability? Check. Separate compartment for the toilet and shower? Double-check. Sometimes all it takes is the little things, executed perfectly. Sometimes good things come in small packages. The Pando 2.0 Off-Road may look small in stature, but you should never judge a book by its cover. Heading out into the remote hills and rocky outcrops of the mountain ranges tests your gear to the point of breaking. So often, luxury takes a back seat for a more streamlined trailer. The Pando is still that, but it's so much more. Being compact doesn't mean anything is left out. You'll find all the creature comforts like an outdoor toilet and shower, USB charging ports, and a fridge/freezer while still maintaining an industry-leading setup time. There is a choice of sleeping either inside the main compartment or in a fold-out tent on top. For those looking for a more immersive experience in nature. 21 inches of ground clearance and a 29-degree departure angle ensures that you can drag the Pando anywhere your 4x4 wants to go. All roads lead to Rome. The Art Expedition Overland won't have any trouble getting there – whether it's paved, gravel, dirt, or off-road. It's built with the wilderness adventurer in mind, capable of storing mountain bikes, kayaks, or canoes on its roof. This is the combination of a campervan's practicality with the utility of a towable light watercraft trailer. The kitchen and fridge slide out the back on roller hinges, with a cozy double bed on top. An additional slimline compartment on the roof can be made into a pop-up tent to accommodate another couple. The real selling point here is the fact that it can be towed by almost any vehicle. It's super lightweight, meaning a 4x4 isn't required. A mid-sized SUV is more than capable, and even an ATV 4-wheeler is up to the task of towing this little beauty behind it through the field. The Jetstream Twin Sport has everything you would expect a traditional caravan to have. Including a modular lounge and sleeping area, internal toilet and shower, and small kitchenette for cooking and washing. It satisfies any criteria a caravanning enthusiast would need to be ticked off to make this their next purchase. The big plus is the size. Despite being a micro caravan, it has a pair of full-length twin beds, which can be united to form one larger double bed. It only weighs 1653lbs, which is less than half the weight to pull compared to a regular-sized van. It boasts a one-piece GRP shell – translation, water literally cannot ingress inside, meaning you're dry, even when the outside isn't. An upgrade to the Phoenix model will reward you with a sport cherry red metallic finish and alloy wheels, as well as a rooftop solar panel, 4 extra USB charging ports, and 2 additional 230v power sockets. Super chic. Who says a teardrop camper trailer can't be a work of art? The Pino PI2010 may look a little like a snail, but it's no slouch – small enough to fit in your garage while being big enough to comfortably sleep, 2 people. The design had aerodynamics in mind, able to be towed along nicely hiding in the slipstream of your vehicle to keep those fuel costs to a minimum. It comes in at just 880lbs, meaning that sedans and even most small hatchbacks can tow it with no problems. The dining area can seat up to 4 people, so you can entertain a few guests for lunch or dinner while on the road. There are so many funky colors and designs to choose from. So you can fully customize the decals to make the Pino look precisely the way you want it to. The Aussie outback is relentless and unforgiving. Trekking through the red center unprepared or underestimating the elements' harshness would be your downfall. Thankfully, the TTA Expedition & Explore has the hot Australian sun in its DNA and beats harsh conditions. There is nowhere this thing can't get to. A revolutionary cross arm suspension system connects the axle to chassis like no other on the market, enduring the brutal level of torsion with ease. The knobbly mud tires are as at home on the road as they are in a swamp. The kitchen and tent top can be set up in well under a minute and tuck away to conserve as much space as possible. The addition of a ton of useful storage compartments and accompanying dual 100Ah lithium battery setup fed by a Redarc solar charging unit and power inverter are a nice touch. There are very few camper trailers on the market that can sleep 4 people – the Chobe Legend is one of them and arguably does it best. The rooftop tent is a complex looking affair, but it folds up nearly to nothing and is very easy to assemble. One couple lays over the trailer yoke supported by a subframe—the other couple out perpendicular to the trailer and opposite the outdoor kitchen area. One of the other main draws is the vast slide-out drawer and space for a much beefier fridge and freezer. Being able to keep more food onboard is always a big plus. The fold-out canopy and sun cover is absolutely massive. It will keep weary travelers safe from the elements, whether it be rain, hail, or shine. Gullwing doors not only look hot on your Lamborghini, but they also have the same desired effect when on the Migrator – it's bound to turn heads. The Basic model is anything but basic, with plenty of room for two inside with interior paneling that looks straight out of an RV – quality. The monobloc fiberglass body keeps the weight down while having the strength to support up to 440lbs on the luggage compartment on top. The Ultra Off-Road 100 goes one step further by adding a small kitchen and basin area, complete with 10-gallon water storage, outdoor shower system, and fridge. It packs in 2 USB charging sockets and a 230V power socket connected to an onboard battery charged by the tow vehicle. The best feature is a full heating system for those cold winter nights spent out in the wilderness. Small hatchbacks and electric cars aren't what would immediately spring to mind when you think of the words "tow vehicle." But the Dashaway brings caravanning to those who don't feel the need to own a big gas-guzzling 4x4. It's so thin and compact that it looks very proportionate to the smaller vehicle towing it, but once deployed, the ability for the Dashaway to make the most of the space really shines through. It's not small and pokey inside either. It sports full 2 berth chassis complete with a spacious double bed – thanks to a handy fold-out compartment and a pop-up roof that really increases the internal space. An adjoining canvas and plastic annex complete the living area. Keeping the rain and sun off while at the same time preventing the bugs and mosquitos from making a meal out of you – while you're making your meal.
