Bob’s Wild Horse Tours

Bob's tours deliver consistently memorable wild horse encounters in the OBX, with most visitors spotting anywhere from 4 to 20+ horses during their excursion. The beach drives are thrilling in themselves, taking you through sandy 4x4 areas of Corolla where these beautiful creatures roam. Guides like Alex, Karen, Kyle, and Gator earn high praise for their knowledge of the Banker horses, ability to track the herd using footprints and clues, and entertaining commentary that brings the islands' history to life. Julie in the booking office gets special recognition for accommodating guests with mobility concerns. The experience works particularly well for families and horse enthusiasts seeking something magical during their beach vacation. A few visitors noted that midday tours can mean less active horses (sometimes spotted near houses or under car ports rather than in dramatic wild settings), so early morning or late afternoon might offer better viewing opportunities. One guest wished for more continuous narration during the drive rather than just at stops. Bring a jacket regardless of the temperature since the open-air beach ride gets windy, but most describe it as part of the adventure that makes this tour a vacation highlight.
