  • 5Last minute booking was perfect

    We had a last minute cancellation on our first company and had to scramble to find something that fit our schedule. We were able to book online about 1 hour prior to the tour. We arrived to confirm and there were no issues. Our guide was very knowledgeable and knew all the best spots to spot horses. I think we spotted around 20. We also got to learn about the area and the ecosystem. Highly recommended tour

  • 5Top rated OBX adventure for a reason.

    The Corolla Outback Adventures team did not disappoint. Rick as our guide was wonderful and lived on the island and knew the horses well. Clear instructions on the meet up point and what to expect. You won’t be disappointed with this highest rated excursion in OBX!

  • 5Spectacular!!!

    Wonderful adventure. Our guide Carla was great! Saw many horses during the tour. As they do mention, it can be a bumpy ride in some areas.

  • 3Don’t waste your money.

    Marketing shows horses running unimpeded on pristine beaches—not in local resident’s backyard. The tour guide was OK—but was in the cab driving for the vast majority of the trip and could not transmit to the tourists.
