This would be great news, as I have been trying to find something that would fit. I nearly got the nice guy in Go to take the porch of the zenobia and see if it would fit on the voyager, but i chickened out asking him.

Okay so we bought the Voyager 6 today...but afraid some not so good news...the sales rep we spoke to said the manufacturers were looking at making a 'generic porch' (ie to fit all hi gear tents) however with the voyager being such a different set up it is unlikely this is going to work (apparently they have already tried a couple of options which havent worked so back to the drawing board!)

IF they manage to set something up for the voyager it would be great but due to manufacturing times etc it doesnt look like it will be this year

Hope this info is wrong but thought you might like to know the word on the grapevine.

just been camping with our Voyager (love that tent)... we have bought a Vango Large Sun Canopy, and although it was put up a bit to quickly it DID fit and did a smashing job of keeping the door completely dry, even in full pelting rain. Very happy with our purchase... we bought THIS in the lead/marine option which looked fine tbh

HTH

Hi there :)

The porch for Voyager 6 is available on Go Outdoors website today - also in some stores.   Think they were planning to roll out across UK, but with sale on - not sure how far will get.
