About Us
Corolla
Jeep Rentals and tours is a family owned and operated business. The
Meredith family has been providing vacationers with entertainment for nearly
two decades. My late father opened The Waterworks, a watersports
rental store in Nags Head during the 1980's. My brother and I grew
up working alongside our dad , taking on greater challenges as the business
rapidly grew. At the height of jet ski popularity we operated 5 locations,
stretching from Ocracoke to Corolla. It was during those early years,
working while on break from school, that I began to appreciate the impact
our activities had on the quality of a family's vacation. Whether
it was an ATV Tour or
Airboat
ride, parasailing or an hour on a wave runner, I wanted our customers to
have fun and leave with a smile on their faces.
Corolla
Adventure Tours was my first solo venture. With my father's guidance,
we opened the doors in 1998, offering customers guided ATV Tours of the
Northern beaches in search of its elusive wild Spanish ponies. When
ATVs were outlawed in 2003, we opened Corolla Jeep Rentals and Tours, Inc.,
the first company of its kind on the Outer Banks. We offered
Jeep rentals as a safe way to tour the northern beaches, while at the same
time pioneering the use
of
GPS technology for wild horse safaris. Customers became their own
guides, able to spend quality time with their families while taking charge
of their adventures. Using the GPS to concentrate their efforts on finding
the ponies and other points of interest left more time for other
family activities- like searching for the perfect shell to take home as
a souvenier, or maybe just finding a quiet spot to enjoy a picnic they
may have packed. We're still at it and hope to make vacations special
for families for many years to come!
Join us anytime for your adventure.
