The entire staff was very helpful. We were not sure if our two year old son would do well, but we were able to bring his car seat, and he was very comfortable and enjoyed himself the entire two hours! I highly recommend this tour! read less

He even provided detailed recommendations of his favorite restaurants and local spots around the Outer Banks, which was an added bonus. It was awesome getting to see the horses but also getting to see some tough to access neighborhoods while taking a ride over and around the dunes at the same time. Definitely a must do when in or around the outer banks, thanks Ned! read less

It all starts with the most helpful gentleman on the phone. He answered all of my questions, and made me so comfortable.

The Hummer was the only way to go. The seats were very comfortable. Getting to the back row took some effort, but was well worth it.

I can't say enough about our driver The Lawman. He kept us entertained while we learned so much. He was wonderful answering our every question.

We come every year, and this will be on our itinerary. read less

Ryan stopped and positioned the vehicle so everyone could see the horses and take pictures while respecting the horses' space. He also stopped at different times to give us a brief history of the horses and the area. It was really fun driving on the beach and around some amazing beach houses in a hummer. This tour is worth doing at least once in your life! read less

We were split into 2 humvees, prompting an immediate rivalry, both guides were highly rated by our group after. Our guide was Dan, did an excellent job explaining more than just the horses. Great personalities from beginning to end. Even out on tour what they did well was working together to find the horses. Loads of opportunities to take pictures of the horse and their surroundings. All in all, highly recommend this organization if you are looking for fun entertaining tour, history and horses! read less

He made sure that everyone was able to get good views of horses on the beach, in the dunes, and even took us back to show were they spend the winter. Ask for Tom Baker "the Outlaw"! He definitely made it a memorable tour. read less

I appreciated his knowledge of and concern for the horses and their environment. I was lucky to get to ride 'shot-gun,' an advantage as a Solo Traveler, in what I learned was the largest Hummer in the world. What a great experience!

Thanks so much,

Mike, our guide, was super knowledgeable about the protection of the wild horses and their history. We were very impressed that Wild Horse Adventure supports the protection of the horses to the point that they have purchased a section of the land the horses roam in order to assure that there will always be an unspoiled spot for them. My heart was in my throat as we watched the various harems interact. The icing on the cake was finding a harem down by the seashore. read less

He stopped a lot, and during his intro speech on the beach, he backed into a parking spot so both sides of the Hummer could see the horses. I give him a 5. I liked it so much that I decided to go again. While Tom was knowledgeable, he didn't really stop to allow for photos, and it was pretty much impossible to get them while bouncing around on the sand. He didn't back in for his opening speech, so only the other side of the Hummer side got to see the horses by the ocean while he was talking, and I didn't get any ocean photographs that day. For this reason, I give this tour a 3, and rate both tours 4 overall. read less

Now that we have experience we can truly see the difference, W.H.A.T. (Wild Horse Adventure Tour) is a first class operation all the way. Now for the experience:

1.) We booked easily online, paid, did all the waivers, everything required before we even set foot in their lovely building. Super easy!! (Tip: Book one of these as soon as you can, possibly even before arriving here on vacation (depending on the time of year), you will be surprised how quickly they fill up.

2.) We arrived the asked for 30 minutes ahead of time and check-in was super easy! We gave our name and essentially we were checked in. The area upstairs was cool and comfortable with large leather sofas to relax on. They have a variety of drinks and snacks available for purchase to take with you. T-shirts, books, stickers, hats etc... are also available for sale. Restrooms are also available upstairs and were clean and well stocked. (Tip: We waited down by the trucks thinking it was first come first load, don't follow our example, they make up a seating chart and assign you a place. we were going to opt for the back row, however my family got the row right behind the driver and I got the front seat. This allowed us some actual conversation with Wiley (our driver) who is an awesome guy!)

3.) The tour in the hummer was spectacular! We cruised to the beach and then down the beach for a bit while Wiley gave us some information on the area and cracked some jokes. Wiley has incredible eyesight too, he spotted 3 groups of the horses on the beach from a long distance away. Wiley got us as close as is reasonable given the laws, probably 60-70 feet or so. We got some seriously amazing pictures. We ended up seeing about 22 horses in total, some on the beach and some in the dunes.

He even turned the hummer around each time so each side had an unobstructed view to take pictures. (Tip: keep an eye on the ocean too as you drive down the beach, we saw dolphins and possibly a shark? dorsal fin.)

4.) The ride, it was bumpy, but it was awesome! There is no way to make the beach less bumpy, it is what it is, however Wiley did a great job keeping it to a minimum. Just driving on the beach is so cool, doing in in a Hummer is awesome! (Tip: if you can't handle it too bumpy for whatever reason, the back row is the bumpiest area to sit. You may be able to ask for a seat towards the front when you check in, or put that in the accommodation comment section when booking online.)

Thanks so much W.H.A.T.!! Wiley was awesome, he has been here for a long time, driving tours for 11 years, but on OBX for longer. He knows the area, the horses the beach and the dunes. If you are lucky enough to be able to sit up front with him, you won't be disappointed! Thanks Wiley! read less

The wind on the beach made it a little chilly on this May day, but the company offers blankets to take on the ride. It's a good idea to grab one. read less

My mom said her favorite part was just riding down the beach in the hummer. Our guide was very knowledgeable and was able to give information about the horses and the land. The only issue we had was the seat belt on my side wouldn't extend all the way. So it was a little uncomfortable.

Overall great experience I would recommend to others who love wildlife, the beach, and horses. read less

Mike and Charlie were excellent and knowledgable guides who immediately put us at ease.
