Is the Eriba Touring Tourist a practical choice?
The Eriba Touring Tourist is a compact, aerodynamic caravan designed for two to four people. It is defined by its 5.08m length, 1300kg MTPLM, and iconic pop-top roof. Built with a steel tube frame and PUAL sandwich insulation, it prioritises towing stability and longevity. While it offers a 350kg payload, its smaller footprint means storage and bathroom space are more limited than in traditional caravans.
- Compact dimensions with a 5.08m length and 2m width.
- Signature pop-top roof providing 1.95m of internal headroom.
- Flexible sleeping options including Fixed V-Bed and Transverse Bed layouts.
- Lightweight 1300kg MTPLM suitable for various tow cars.
- Robust aero-styled steel tube construction.
Worth knowing: Internal storage is more restricted than in full-sized caravans. Washroom facilities can be compact depending on the specific layout chosen. The premium price range reflects the specialist build quality.
Buying an Eriba Touring Tourist
Who it suits
- Couples seeking a compact, easy-to-tow vehicle with retro styling.
- Small families who require up to four berths in a 5.08m footprint.
- Drivers with smaller tow cars who need a 1300kg MTPLM limit.
Reasons to consider it
- Exceptional aerodynamic performance and fuel efficiency.
- High-quality PUAL insulation suitable for various climates.
- Strong resale value compared to many mass-market caravans.
What to check
- Verify the operation of the retractable entrance step.
- Inspect the canvas of the pop-top roof for wear or damp.

The Eriba Touring Tourist occupies a specific niche, focusing on aerodynamic efficiency and a 5.08m compact frame. When compared to the Adria Action or Swift Basecamp, it offers a unique steel tube construction and pop-top design, whereas competitors often provide more conventional internal height at the cost of a higher towing profile. While the Sprite Alpine range offers more internal length for a lower price, the Eriba maintains a higher price ceiling of 34500, reflecting its specialist build and materials.
Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.
Owning an Eriba Touring Tourist
- Utilise the 2m width to access tighter pitches that wider caravans cannot reach.
- Regularly clean the two-burner hob and galley area to maintain the compact kitchen.
- Ensure the anti-sway hitch is engaged to maximise the benefits of the aerodynamic shape.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Exceeding the 350kg payload by installing heavy aftermarket accessories.
- Attempting to store large items that exceed the compact internal locker dimensions.
Worth knowing: The 2.26m height is low for towing but requires the roof to be raised for full 1.95m headroom.
