Alaska Overlander 4Runner Rentals with Rooftop Tents
Fully Equipped Camping & Aurora-Ready Vehicles Based in Fairbanks
Not your typical car rental-our Toyota 4Runner Overlander rigs come fully equipped with rooftop tents, camping gear and everything you need to explore Alaska’s backroads. Explore the sights around Fairbanks and across Alaska! WE RENT YEAR ROUND! *3 NIGHT MINIMUM*
What is Included in your rental:
✔ Toyota 4Runner Overlander Vehicle
✔ Rooftop Tent + Full Camping Setup
✔ Built for Backroads & Northern Lights
OVERLANDER EDITION
The Overlander is built to turn Alaska’s rugged backroads into your personal playground, combining comfort, capability and convenience. At the center of it all is the iKamper rooftop tent-fast to set up, weatherproof and unfolds into a spacious king-size sleeping platform with a 3" Gel-Infused & Bamboo Charcoal Memory Foam Mattress and premium bedding. Elevated off the ground, it delivers cozy sleep and sweeping views wherever you park for the night.
Meals are just as rewarding as the journeys. The full kitchen kit includes a propane stove with griddle, folding prep table, cookware, utensils and a cutting board that doubles as a portable sink. A Goal Zero refrigerator/freezer powered by an efficient LG compressor keeps food fresh for days, while a 60-second pop-up screen tent makes every roadside lunch or evening meal bug-free and protected from the elements.
Power is handled by the onboard Redarc system, wired to the vehicle’s alternator and fully rechargeable in under two hours of driving. It’s designed to run lights, the fridge/freezer and all camp gear for days at a time-so your adventure never gets cut short.
Every Overlander also comes equipped with a first aid kit, recovery gear & tools, including a jack, shovel, saw, fire extinguisher and firewood carrier. Whether you’re traveling Alaska’s highways, venturing onto gravel backroads or camping at remote trailheads, you’ll always be ready for the unexpected.
For those who want to go even further, the Garmin Tread Overlander 2 upgrade unlocks detailed maps of roads, trails and campsites-putting navigation, planning and exploration all at your fingertips.
With the Overlander, your vehicle isn’t just transportation-it’s a complete basecamp that turns every mile into part of the adventure.
AURORALANDER EDITION
The Auroralander has been engineered from the ground up to provide the ultimate Northern Lights viewing retreat. At its heart is the thermal Clam Lookout tent, offering insulated warmth and 63.5 sq ft of usable space to relax, photograph and enjoy the Aurora in comfort. An external diesel heating system pumps in adjustable warm air with no risk of carbon monoxide, while a dedicated power system runs all lighting, heating controls and accessories—plus keeps your devices charged, your cameras ready and even boils water for hot drinks.
Inside, guests can tailor their environment with custom aurora-style lighting, multiple brightness settings and curated accessories like padded Arctic Oven camp chairs, wearable Below Zero blankets, a rapid-boil electric water pot and headlamps. To further explore the Alaskan outdoors, each rental also includes complimentary snowshoes, giving guests the freedom to step out and experience the winter landscape up close.
For those who want to customize their adventure, the Auroralander offers a range of upgrade options. The Backroads Barista package delivers a taste of Alaska with locally made coffee, tea or hot chocolate brewed right in the tent. For added convenience, the Rooftop Cargo System expands storage capacity so more guests can ride in comfort while skis, snowshoes or the tent itself travel securely up top.
Every detail has been engineered specifically for the Auroralander operation, blending warmth, safety and modern comfort so you can settle in and focus on what really matters-watching the Northern Lights dance across the Alaskan sky.
