Today our exploration truly begins as we start our days with a short drive up the Outer Banks to Corolla, NC to see the Wild Horses. We have a real treat in store for everyone, we will hop off our bus and hop into a jeep for an off road adventure to go find these beautiful Spanish Mustangs. Along the way our experienced guide will share some of the history of these majestic creatures. We get back from our adventure horsing around and make our way to the red bricked Currituck Lighthouse, where you will have the opportunity (if you want) to climb to the top of the lighthouse and take in the stunning panoramic view of the Currituck Sound, the Outer Banks, and the Atlantic Ocean.  However, this action-packed day isn’t over yet as we make our way to the Wright Brothers National Memorial and Visitor Center. Wind, sand, and a dream of flight brought Wilbur and Orville Wright to Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, where - after four years of scientific experimentation - they achieved the first successful airplane flights on December 17, 1903, forever changing the course of history

Day 5:

Afterwards we move on to Fort Raleigh National Historic Site, The historic site of the Roanoke Colony, the first English settlement in the New World. Here we learn about the history and the mystery of Roanoke Island. We will now have some free time to explore, shop and eat in downtown Manteo.

Day 6:

Meals: Breakfast

This morning we depart for a little more exploring as today takes us down the coastline of the Outer Banks making stops along the way, first at the Bodie Island Lighthouse (another opportunity to climb to the top presents itself if you so wish), then on to the Chicamacomico Life-Saving Station (no I can’t pronounce it either) this is a former Coast Guard station and has a proud history and story. Then it is on to lunch. After lunch you can work off those calories as we arrive at the tallest lighthouse in America, Cape Hatteras Lighthouse (again you can climb to the top if you want – or not). Our maritime journey continues as our next destination is the Graveyard of the Atlantic Museum, where you will learn some of the history of the ships that never made it to port. After having dinner on your own in Hatteras, NC, we will make our way back to our hotel for the night.

Day 7:

Before we bid ado to the Outer Banks, we would be silly to not give folks free time at the beach; therefore, today you will have half a day of free time at our oceanfront hotel. You have the opportunity to soak in the sun and truly enjoy the ocean. Leaving the Outer Banks behind, we now head north to Virginia Beach where yet another oceanfront hotel awaits. This evening we have a special surprise in store for everybody here.
