It is not clear from your question how you have your views arranged and what you are trying to achieve. Usually a UITabBarController contains an array of root view controllers. Each view controller corresponding to a tab on the tab bar. Any or all of those view controllers could be a UINavigationController which itself can contain a stack of view controllers.

UITabBarController
                 |-UINavigationController -> [AViewController,.....]
                 |-UINavigationController -> [AnotherViewController,.....]
                 |-UINavigationController -> [AndAnotherViewController,.....]

The navigation controllers which in this case would be the root view controller for each tab can be accessed via the UITabBarController viewControllers property:

NSArray *rootViewControllers = [tabBarController viewControllers];

So if you want the root view controller of the first tab bar:

UINavigationController *rootViewController = [rootViewControllers objectAtIndex:0];
