General review

These guys are awesome! Nick, the owner, was especially accommodating to me since I had to switch dates (and tours) the last minute. He was great to deal with and very understanding with my scheduling dilemma. Extreme Tornado Tours (ETT) had great vans, expert chasers, and really got us into the heart of the storms. They seem really aggressive about getting you up close-- and they didn't disappoint! But Nick was big on safety and made sure everyone understood and followed the rules. He even spotted a rattle snake for us on the side of the road before anyone stepped on it 😉 Hotels were great, plenty of pit stops for bathroom breaks (when not in emergency chase mode), and great choice of non-chase activities and restaurants during down periods. I would definitely chase again with ETT!!!

Vehicle review:

Vans were comfortable and everyone had a window seat. Power outlets and USB connections for everyone. The WiFi was not working on my tour, but Nick says he will get that fixed with a new system.

Tour guide review:

Tour was operated very professionally. No issues at all. Nick is a great leader and wants to make sure everyone is looked after and has fun. Plenty of activity options on non-chasing days. Nick and his team of Kevin, Blake and Ashleigh were great forecasters and had a high batting average in picking the right storms to chase. We saw tornadoes, lightning and some awesome mesocyclone storms. Extreme Tornado Tours got us right up close.
