I enjoyed my experience going on the duck tour, but of course it happened to be a freezing day on the day we chose to be out on the water!! Kids think it's cool that you are driving on a street and the just go right on into the water! Boston is a great city with so much to see! It's always fun to take tours when you go to new places!
The Boston Duck Tour ticket booth was very close to our hotel so we decided on the spur of the moment to give it a try. We enjoyed it so much! A great way to see a lot of Boston in a short amount of time. The tour helped us decide how to spend the remainder of our trip. Who wouldn't want to spin around Boston in a WWII
amphibious vehicle and then float around in the Charles River?
I've been on Duck tours in a couple of cities, and they are always fun with the kids. The one in Boston was exceptionally fun for the whole family. Boston has so much history, and the Duck tourguides present it in a way that makes it interesting for kids.
A "duck" is a WWII vehicle that can run on Land or water, and the tour takes you to both. You get to see TONS of the city in a quick and informative tour. It's pricey, but worth it, especially if you are in Boston for a limited time.
