How much does a geodesic dome or glamping tent cost, delivered and installed?
The price you find online is the factory price, ex-works China. What matters is the price of the structure standing on your land. Here are ours, all-in.

The factory price is not the price of the structure
Search "geodesic dome price" and you get factory figures, in dollars, for a structure sitting in a container on the other side of the world. Between that number and a unit hosting guests there is a list of costs the listing rarely mentions:
Sea freight to Europe.
EU customs duties and clearance.
Transport from the port to your land.
Assembly by a team that has built that structure before.
VAT at the rate of the delivery country.
And the risk: importing directly makes you the importer of record, responsible for compliance — snow and wind loads included.
We are the importer. Our price already includes all of this, except VAT, which depends on the country where the structure is assembled.
Starting prices, delivered and installed
Prices depend on the delivery zone. Portugal and Spain are the base; here is Portugal, France and Germany side by side, all calculated by the same engine as the configurator.
These are starting prices: the structure as it leaves the factory, no options, assembled on your land. It is the right figure to compare with a direct-import quote — once you add freight, customs, transport and assembly to that quote.
A unit ready to operate
Most professional projects add a deck, the winter pack and a bathroom. With those three options, in Portugal, each model comes to:
Right-hand column: structure + deck + winter pack + bathroom, ex-VAT. Options have fixed prices and are all in the configurator.
What changes the price
The delivery country. Portugal and Spain are the base. France, Belgium and Luxembourg are one step up; central Europe another; the Nordics and Eastern Europe one more. Switzerland, the UK and islands carry a logistics surcharge and, in some cases, their own customs.
Options: deck, winter pack, bathroom and solar. Fixed prices, visible in the configurator.
Islands and hard-to-reach sites: delivery and assembly cost more, and that goes into the firm quote — not into surprises on the day.
The number of units. We quote per unit and for the whole set, with phased delivery and assembly if you prefer.
VAT, at the rate of the delivery country.
What is included — and what is not
Included in the starting price:
The structure and its original equipment.
Sea freight and EU customs duties.
Delivery to your land.
Assembly by our regional team.
Not included, assessed case by case in the firm quote:
Foundations or platform, beyond the optional deck.
Water, electricity and sewage connections.
Furniture and equipment beyond what comes as standard.
Planning permission with the local authority.
For a first project, or several identical units on the same land, the best value in the range is the geodesic dome: Sirius 7m →
