I highly recommend - it was great to learn more about the wild horses and how we can help ensure a peaceful, sustainable home for these beautiful animals. Our tour guide Jess was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable of the herd - I really appreciated how respectful she was not only of the horses but of all the wildlife in the area. She made a genuine effort to ensure everyone was able to take photos of the horses without encroaching on their space, too. The vehicles used to facilitate the tour also felt incredibly safe and much sturdier than the other 4X4 tour vehicles we saw on the beach. I would recommend taking the last evening tour to beat the heat and get some incredible sunset pictures of the horses!

I did not want them bumping around on uncomfortable seats, this tour did not disappoint. Even if we hadn't seen a single horse the ride in the H1 was awesome! Dan our tour guide was great! Very friendly and knowledgable about the area & the horses. We took the 8:30am tour and we were able to see several bands of horses right away.

Our Hummer H1 vehicles have been customized with your safety in mind. All designs have been over-engineered to build the safest and most comfortable ride possible. Seats have seatbelts and restraint systems for child seats. All seats are actual car seats -no boat-style bench seats or plastic bucket seats are used in our vehicles. An additional upper windshield with a top made with a combination of fine mesh and clear plastic enables occupants a 360-degree view. After customization, the Hummer is capable of seating 13 passengers with more leg room than any standard SUV. Individual seats that are 21 inches wide (no bench seats), in a stadium seating configuration, offer ultimate comfort and visibility for all.
