Get to know North Carolina with Viator

Divided into three regions—Mountains, Piedmont, and Coastal Plain—North Carolina stretches from the world’s oldest peaks to the waters of the Atlantic. In a matter of hours, you’ll trade sleepy mountain towns for the university-rich Research Triangle, Appalachian forests for the 100-mile sands of the Outer Banks, and stories of Blackbeard for the Wright Brothers. In other words, the Tarheel State offers its visitors a smorgasbord of culture, history, and adventure.
