There are lots of places to go and see in the Outer Banks, and a great way to hit all the major stops is to take tours. Outer Banks tours range from adventurous to luxurious and familiar to wild, so it isn’t hard to find tours that will interest you. You can tour through nature preserves and wildlife refuges, taking the trails on foot and the marshes and sound by kayak. If you want to catch a glimpse of the wild Spanish Mustangs, you can take a safari tour in an open air Jeep or safari style bus led by locals who know the horses’ favorite spots to graze and play. You can even stroll through expansive gardens and historic farms and gaze upon beautiful flowers or blacksmiths at work. And tours don’t necessarily have to be outside – you can find tours that will take you through a historic mansion, to different restaurants or even to breweries, which are perfect places to visit on those rainy days. Check out the listing below to learn about all of the different Outer Banks tours and get ready to see where you end up.
