About this experience

Aquaduck Gold Coast was established in 1996, the now famous & iconic Aquaduck remains Australia's first and finest amphibious adventure.

What to expect

There is a guide and a captain on the duck boat. The car will first take tourists to browse the city, and then drive to the special pier to slowly launch into the water. The tour bus will immediately transform into a cruise ship. The guide will introduce you to the famous and wealthy waterside villas on both sides of the river. Observing wild animals is also fun. Full explanation. In areas where there are few boats, children can also sit in the driving seat and be the helmsman with the help of the captain.
