Tornado Alley Guided Tours no longer supported!
If you would like to fly into tornado alley to meet up with me on the road on a guided storm chasing adventure, you can rent a vehicle and follow me around tornado alley at a reduced price of
U.S.$125.00 per day (not available)


(This is not available) to persons that wish to follow me around while I am storm chasing in the US.  These "guided" storm chase adventures have no minimum amount of chase days. Note:  "Guided" storm chase pricing does not cover your motel room(s), your rented vehicle or your fuel.  No tour covers your food.  You must pay those extras yourself.

My "Guided" storm chasing adventure tours have come to an end.  Thank you to those who supprted me!  But you can decide how many days, or which days you want to chase yourself to the severe weather or tornadic supercells!!  On down days, you can stay with me for a travel day to the next risk area.  Travel days are free with no limit on "your" passengers but I'll still be targeting for myself, my clients and you for the next day, or series of days.  It's totally up to you!  (NOT) AVAILABLE in Ontario short notice, 1 day mini tour.  Much less expensive than a full week of chasing in the U.S., so you can experience severe weather in a safe and controlled manner!  1 day tours are no longer available!

Southern Ontario Mini Chases are no longer available on severe weather days.  According to Environment Canada, Southern Ontario has not one, but two "tornado alleys".   Which one do you want to check out?
