Along the northern stretches of the Outer Banks lives a relic of a time long since past on these barrier islands. With an ancestry tracing back to the very fist days of European exploration in North America, the legendary Corolla wild horses still roam our beaches, dune fields, and maritime forest as they have for hundreds of years. The elemental forces that sculpt these islands that we love so much, are the same forces that have created a breed of horse unlike any other in the world. Wind, waves, storms, sand, and salt have coalesced into sculpting this truly remarkable breed known officially as the Banker horse – banker, as in the Outer Banks.

For nearly 20 years, Outer Banks Tours has been providing the world and opportunity to view these wild horses on their own terms. Melding together a one of a kind experience of both high energy off-road adventure through the 4×4 back country with top notch professional naturalists and guides, our wild horse safari cannot be beat.

One of the great things about being a company with a long standing history working in this area, is our access to large tracks of both private and public preserves that remain off limits to the rest of the tour companies in the area. As a partner of the private Spanish Mustang Preserve and with our unique partnerships with large landowners, we have helped to create and conserve a network of protected lands for these horses.

Join us on this unforgettable adventure into the backcounty in search of the Corolla wild horses!

 

 

Outer Banks Tours offers you a variety of options to see the wild horses! You choose the level of adventure that’s right for your family, we make it happen.

 

Open Air Safari Cruisers

•Outer Banks Tours is proud to offer this one of a kind off-road adventure in our open air safari cruisers. Just riding in these trucks is an experience in and of itself. Ever heard of the monster truck called the Gravedigger? Well we had his guys put their heads together to come up with and build these beasts. Our safari trucks are not only built just for this trip, but they carry up to 10 passengers as well so that we can cater to the largest of families.

•One step down from our fully open Safari Cruisers are the semi-open air cruisers. Like our other vehicles, these trucks have been customized and fabricated just for Outer Banks Tours. These vehicles offer a bit more protection from the elements while we are out there, but still allow for customers to stand up and photograph right from the vehicle.

Comfort Controlled Air Conditioned SUVs

We know that the open air safaris are not for everyone. So we make sure to also offer wild horse safaris from the comfort and class of our luxury suburbans. Routes are the same here, its just this version provides you with a climate controlled smoother riding alternative.

Outer Banks Tours demands only the best guides on the beach, because you deserve nothing less. Worried about not seeing horses? Well worry no more. We offer a money back guarantee that your guide will find the wild horses.
