HOW IT ALL STARTED

Bob's OFF-ROAD Wild Horse Adventure Tours

Bob's Tours started as an accident back in 1996. My dad Bob Sr. owned the Inn at Corolla Light and was drinking margarita's on the pool deck with some guests. They inquired about the horses and how to see them. My dad being the customer service guy said he had a 4 wheel drive and would take them on the beach to see the horses.

At some point someone said, "you should offer tours - this is great!" Then the crew decided on a name for the business. You may have guessed it, Bob's Wild Horse Adventure Tours. Actually I think it was more like Wild Bob's Wild Horse Adventure Tours. There may have been some margaritas consumed on the trip by the passengers.

Now for the rest of the story. Bob suggested that I should start up tours; he was busy with his Inn. So I became the Bob. Allow me to introduce myself. I am Bob White Jr. I am actually a third, but Jr. is easier when people are looking for either of us.

Over the years the company has grown with the area. We went from one rusty old Suburban to five, and from 3 tours a day 5 days a week to 20 times a day and 7 days a week. I have also been featured on North Carolina Weekend, a show that showcases things to do in the state. I now also have a Jeep rental business that came out of Bob's Tours. www.beachjeepsofcorolla.com

In an effort to keep things fresh and offer a better tour we have built 3 open air trucks to take our guest out in. They will offer a much better trip in my view. After all you came to see the beach and smell that salt air. Our new vehicles will seat up to 17 people, with some seats in the cab that offer A/C if you so desire.

I hope that you will give us a try. Bob’s Wild Horse Tours are designed for families and will give you memories to share for years to come.

Sincerely,
Bob White
