great trip

Jon C., United States, 10-2008

The duck tour is great way to see the city. It provides interesting information about sites in a humorous way. I recommend this tour !!

Denise T., United States, 09-2008

The tour was fun and informative.

karen s., United States, 08-2008

Very fun and the kids enjoyed it :) Wish we could have blown the duck horns more...they wouldn't let us for most of the trip.

Katherine G., United States, 08-2008

Everything was very easy to book on line. Once we got to the tour, everything ran smoothly too. All 4 of us had a wonderful time.

Kathy R., United States, 08-2008

Fun tour.

Amy B., United States, 08-2008

Highly recommend this tour. Our guide (local guy who used to live in the Marina) was fabulous, the music was just right and we mostly participated. I would recommend this tour...even to local Philiadelphians. I learned a new song..."We Fell In Love On The Way To Cape May." Now we're going to Cape May...Could I find love there. LOL

Rebecca F., United States, 08-2008

We took a duck tour in Washington and Boston and the guides dress up in costumes. I believe there was a driver and a guide. It was a little more lively with two people. The sound system did not work well and it was hard to hear. It was ok

Loren P., United States, 08-2008

took 2 5 year olds on philly duck tour and had a great time. guide was funny and informative.

jack m., United States, 07-2008

Already recommended the tour to several people. It is easy to get to and you really don't need to book in advance as there are so many opportunities to do so right there.

Cathy J., United States, 07-2008

This is a great tour. The guide wasn't our best but he was good.

Kathie R., United States, 07-2008

Great tour, very unique and informative!

HELEN A., United States, 07-2008

Overall a nice experience for my family My 5 year old daughter especially enjoyed it.

Patrick C., United States, 07-2008

Our tour guide did not have his license to operator the Duck in the water; consequently we had to wait for a pilot to come aboard to take us in the water. There was a camp group aboard who was not supervised properly and the Guide was not able to notice the "hands out the window, grabbing tree branches" etc. Perhaps camp groups should not be co-mingled with families.

linda e., United States, 06-2008

Our family had a great time riding the ducks in Philly. Our driver/tour guide was terrific.

Heidi H., United States, 06-2008

It was a fun acitivity for us and our 4 kids. We all enjoyed the ride and our guide made it very enjoyable. His name was Dale (not sure).

Christine P., United States, 05-2008

Wonderful tour

Gwendolyn K., United States, 05-2008

Wonderful tour. But website should explain about difference between open ticket and there should be a way to buy a ticket for a specific time.

Dorothy F., United States, 04-2008

The tour was fun for children and adults. Our tour guide was friendly and entertaining and the quackers added to the fun.

Lynda H., United States, 04-2008

Very pleasant and informative - very useful in narrowing our choices of what sites we would visit in our limited time.

Stephen D., United States, 11-2007

we had a great time. the kids enjoyed it as well as the adults.

jennifer b., United States, 08-2007

this was a lot of fun for the entire family the kids had a blast

Theodora S., United States, 08-2007

The experience was wonderful. I took my niece as a birthday present. It was a wonderful experience for the kids. It was a way for them to experience some history, while at the same time have some fun. They even let my niece come up front and we all sang Happy Birthday. I video taped it and gave her the DVD of it as a birthday present.
