Kilimanjaro and Safari Cyber Monday Deal

Receive our exclusive Kilimanjaro and Safari Cyber Monday Deal with $500 off our Mt. Kilimanjaro summit trek African safari package with a Zanzibar resort retreat on January 16, 2025. Just enter SAFARI25 during checkout.

YExplore is thrilled to offer this Kilimanjaro and Safari Cyber Monday Deal on our premier tour package just in time for the Holidays. Our trip will coincide with the great migration in January 2025. This will be our 4 trip to the summit of Mt. Kilimanjaro. We will begin our trip with a one day visit to Taranagire National Park. We should be able to view herds of elephants in this wildlife enclave.

Mt. Kilimanjaro Trek and Safari

From there we will travel to the Great Plains of the Serengeti. We will have abundant wildlife viewing opportunities while camping in the savannah. We will explore the Serengeti on a magical balloon ride on our third and final day.

Then we climb out of the great plains and into the Ngorongoro Highlands. Our group will visit the crater that is teeming with wildlife. We may have an opportunity to see the Big Five. Following that, you will be on a cultural exchange in a Maasai village.

Our trip then moves to the next phase, Kilimanjaro. You will embark on an epic 7 day journey to the summit at Uhuru Peak. This trek will be gradual at first and then you will feel the challenge. After we rejoice at the summit, we will make our way down. From there, we will return to civilization.

Before returning home, we will enjoy a three night stay at a fine resort in Zanzibar. Your body will recover while you soak in a few days of relaxation.

Kilimanjaro and Safari Cyber Monday Deal

Act now. Our Kilimanjaro and Safari Cyber Monday Deal lasts until December 31. You will receive $500 off this exclusive tour package. All the details can be found on our Kilimanjaro Trek and Safari Page. You may also view the full itinerary for the trip of a lifetime here. This package starts at $10,000 per person including all transportation once you arrive. It also includes all lodging, and meals. We will have a private chef during all camping trips. The price will decrease as the group size increases.

As the owner of YExplore, I personally will accompany you on this wonderful trip. I am looking forward to exploring the Serengeti and summiting Africa’s tallest peak with you. To receive our exclusive Kilimanjaro and Safari Cyber Monday Deal, just enter SAFARI25 during checkout.

2023 Half Dome Permits

YExplore has received our 2023 Half Dome Permits. If you would like to attempt the summit of Half Dome on a guided hike, we are offering the following dates to the public: June 27,29; July 16,17; and August 11. Please visit our Hike Half Dome page to book this tour.

Half Dome is the tallest peak in Yosemite Valley, rising 8,842 feet above sea level. It is one of the main attractions in Yosemite National Park and one of the most popular day hikes in the world. The only way to hike to the summit of Half Dome during peak summer months is to obtain a permit through the lottery program. Each year, the lottery becomes more difficult to navigate, and the management team at Yosemite continues to make it more difficult to run tours to Half Dome. This year we only received 5 dates so we anticipate selling out our inventory of Half Dome Hiking Tours early.

2023 Half Dome Permits

YExplore was established in 2006 with a passion for exploring the natural world with fellow adventure seekers from across the globe. All of our guides are local to Yosemite with a wealth of experience. John DeGrazio, our lead Half Dome Guide, has reached the summit of Half Dome 200 times. He made his 200th ascent last October. “I enjoy sharing nature with guests from all over the world. Spending a day in this setting creates an unbreakable bond shared by the entire team. I only wish the National Park Service would find more value in the safety benefits we provide to our groups and the general public and try to be more cooperative instead of imposing more restrictions on us each year,” DeGrazio states.

2023 Half Dome Permits

The guided Half Dome hike typically lasts 12-13 hours and covers 19 miles with about 5,000 feet of elevation gain. It requires maximum endurance and serious physical training. Our experienced guides help prepare you for the day while also lending support for the extreme physical and mental challenge of the hike. We will also send you a a gear preparation list to help you pack efficiently for the trek.

2023 Half Dome Permits

If you would like to have added safety trekking with an experienced leader and have already acquired 2023 Half Dome Permits through recreation.gov, then YExplore can be added as your guide. You’ve done the hard part, and we’d be happy to assist you in achieving your goal. If you did not receive 2023 Half Dome Permits or believe this trek may be a little too extreme, we have many other guided opportunities to choose from. We have several Yosemite tours that are suitable for all levels of experience and fitness in every season.

Please also visit our Yosemite Shop with a newly developed product line featuring our Yosemite Tunnel View Bear.

Yosemite Bear Gear Clearance

YExplore Yosemite Adventures is having a Yosemite Bear Gear Clearance Sale on all of our inventory. Please visit the Yosemite Gift Shop for all items that must be sold by the end of March. We created this line of hats, shirts, and decals as a fundraiser to support black bears in Yosemite. We are currently looking to improve our line of merchandise to offer but must sell out our remaining stock before we move forward.

Yosemite Bear Gear Clearance

These items are priced to sell quickly so you need to act fast to get your favorite Richardson trucker hat, classic trucker, tshirt, hoodie, or decal. Each choice is of high quality standards and adorned with our Yosemite Tunnel View Bear logo.

Yosemite Bear Gear Clearance

Color supplies are limited so please list a backup choice if your original color is not available. Be sure to shop the YExplore Yosemite Bear Gear Clearance Sale for the best deals. https://www.yexplore.com/yosemite-gift-shop/

In 2017, YExplore Founder John DeGrazio developed a concept for a new logo he hoped would be iconic for Yosemite. In a collaboration with Lawson Studios in Oakhurst, CA, we have created the Yosemite “Tunnel View” Bear. It is a native Yosemite black bear outlining the iconic scene from Tunnel View. We have selected the finest quality garments to proudly display this attractive design. We are equally proud to announce that proceeds from sales have been donated to the Yosemite National Park Bears. Thank you for helping to protect Yosemite bears. Keep bears wild!
