What are people saying about Outer Banks

2-hour Outer Banks Wild Horse Tour by 4WD Truck

Clay_P, Oct 2026

The Dune horses of Corolla

It can be a bumpy ride but well worth it. The vehicle was an open backed truck that had 4 wheel drive. Hoped to see more horses but they can be hard to locate. We were driven in and out of the dunes and saw about a dozen horses. The driver indicated that they saw more the previous day. The only negative was that the driver needed a mic as no body could hear him when he spoke on the trip. We would go again in a heartbeat .

Wild Dolphin Tours and Sunset Cruises in Outer Banks, NC

Steven_S, Sept 2026

Saw many dolphins!

The captain & mate provided a very enjoyable & safe trip. They knew where the dolphins were located & took us there. Once we found the group of dolphins the captain kept circling us around them so that we saw them doing different things for about a 1/2 hour. He made sure both sides of the boat saw the dolphins. He took us back a different way to show us other portions of the bay.

Dune Hang Gliding Lesson

MAGDOLEN_A, July 2026

Must do!

Was a great experience and definitely a must do while in Kitty Hawk! The guides worked very well together, communicated very well and seemed to genuinely care about us having the best experience possible and our safety. Listen to all the advice- sunscreen, water are a must. Also, you need to be able to walk in sand a decent distance, and uphill after each flight. Wind conditions weren't the best on our day, but they offered several different options such as rescheduling or reducing to 3 vs 5 flights (with a partial refund which came surprisingly very quick!). Overall great company would definitely do this experience.

OBX Ghost Tours: Lighthouse Wraiths & Dune Shadows of Manteo

Audriann_L, June 2026

Must do for the spooky loving folks!

This tour was so fun and informative! Our tour guide was excellent. My husband and I have been coming to the OBX for years and had no idea about any of these stories. It was the perfect mix of history and spooky. Definitely a must if you’re a history buff or a paranormal lover!
