Wild Horse Tour – Corolla & Carova 4WD Adventure
$49 - $65 per person
2 hours
When you think of Corolla, you think of the wild Spanish mustangs roaming free along the northern beaches—and this is your chance to see them up close.
Join us for a 2-hour off-road adventure into Carova aboard our brand-new 2026 open-air 4WD vehicle. We travel along the shoreline and through the dunes, where these incredible horses live exactly as they have for centuries.
Along the way, your guide will share the story of the Outer Banks—from its early development to the unique ecosystem that supports the wild horses today. We’ll stop for photos, take in the scenery, and keep an eye out for local wildlife.
Most tour trucks pack in 14 people. We cap ours at 10—same space, way more breathing room.
