Our approach:
Personal advice
You have a vision; we have the experience. Would you like to know what the possibilities are at your location? Visit our showroom or have one of our glamping experts visit you. Together we can look at the available opportunities for your campsite or holiday park. No challenge is too big, and no request is too small! We provide bespoke advice and help you find the glamping accommodation that best suits your needs. We then draw up a matching quotation that marks the start of our partnership.
Design and concept development
We believe it’s important that our safari tents fit perfectly into your vision. And whether that vision is all planned out or still needs to be worked out: we will gladly work with you on developing a complete concept! Because when you buy a safari tent with us, you buy more than just an accommodation space; you buy an entire glamping experience for your guests!
Assembly and turn-key delivery
When you choose turn-key delivery, you opt for convenience! Turn-key delivery is the ideal solution for many clients because we take care of the entire process for you. We arrange transport, construction, assembly and the interior complete with furnishings. Our experienced assembly teams ensure your guests can enjoy themselves to the fullest! Would you prefer to construct and assemble your own tents? Our clear assembly instructions make it all possible.
Innovation through customer experiences
We keep in touch with our customers after installing the tents. Your experiences and the experiences of your guests are vital to us! When you learn more about Outstanding, you will know we believe in progress, innovation and are always trying to find ways to improve the glamping experience. We love to innovate and optimise our business based on customer experiences and feedback worldwide.
The Outstanding Story
We have been working on your glamping success for many years! View the growth of our business to a worldwide supplier of safari tents and lodges here.
Safari tents from Pakistan
In 2009, Erik van Donselaar bought his first containers with safari tents from Pakistan. The shipment totalling 90 safari tents was sold out in no time. However, the quality left much to be desired.
Glamping continues to become increasingly popular. Erik partners up with Robin, and full of confidence and energy, they set up the Outstanding business! They decide to take tent production into their own hands to improve the quality of their tents.
First tents at Laag Kanje Holiday Park
The first Outstanding safari tents are installed at Laag Kanje holiday park! Spot the differences between these tents and our current models.
Outstanding showroom
Not only is a warehouse to keep stock essential for the business, but a location where we can display our tents is also an absolute must! That is why we transformed the front area of our logistics facility into a showroom for our customers.
First glamping trade fair
There’s a first time for everything! Robin and Erik travel together to the SETT trade fair in France. Today the trade fair season has become an Outstanding staple. Each year, we proudly display our products at the most prestigious trade fairs in the sector.
First container shipment
Customers from all over the world know where to find Outstanding. The first container makes its way towards São Tomé and Principe (an island off the coast of central Africa).
Showroom expansion
Moving our logistics facility to Woudenberg left plenty of room to display all our tents. A visit to our showroom has therefore become an experience in itself for our customers!
First megaproject
We supplied no fewer than 55 fully furnished safari tents to Arena One 99 Glamping, the first glamping-only resort in Croatia. It’s an achievement we continue to be proud of to this day!
New logistics site
It was once again time for a more spacious logistics facility. The 1500 m2 in Woudenberg made way to a space measuring 7000 m2 in Barneveld. View the video here for an impression of our warehouse!
The Outstanding fleet
We started to take transport and assembly into our own hands for more flexibility. Since then, we have our own fleet at our disposal.
A record-breaking year
A year in which we break many records. Over 1000 tents left our warehouse this season! A huge milestone!
First international office in France
We proudly open our first office abroad. France’s strongly developed camping market offers plenty of opportunity for the glamping field. Welcome to the team, Eric Ballofet!
Outstanding on the move
Our expanding offices and showroom were ready to move to a new location, leaving behind many fond memories after years of tremendous growth. The new site is located next to our warehouse and and proved to be the ideal location for our new showroom!
100 safari tents at Serengeti Park
We delivered our largest project ever: 100 safari tents at the Serengeti animal and amusement park in Hodenhagen, Germany!
Launch of the seas-on
Proudly, we launch our newest innovation: the seas-on lodge! An insulated lodge available for rent all year round. With our customers’ growing demand to offer glamping in winter as well, we thought it was high time to meet this need.
Outstanding is established in America
With the arrival of our very first American colleague, Outstanding USA Inc. is now a reality! Glamping is gaining popularity in America, making this the perfect moment for Outstanding to establish itself here.
