Great tour, once Captain Bob started talking i never stopped laughing! Its about 90 minutes from start to finish, since its my first time in Austin getting around the city in a tour has been very helpful!
The Austin Duck Adventures Tour was an amazing experience. My wife and I enjoyed the driver’s (Captain Bob) witty banter and the history he shared about the city!!! I highly recommend the tour and we were thoroughly impressed!!!
We had so much fun during our Duck Tour, our guide was amazing, funny & and made it super fun for the entire group. The duck whistles were hella fun especially for kids! We’re local and would totally be back anytime we have guest over for this experience!
Duck tour was sooo entertaining and fun!! Thought I know all to know about Austin but the tour really gives you a beautiful, fun and informative history of the city. Love it!!!
We enjoyed the tour so much! Both, our almost 3 year old son and our 12 year old son sat through it without complaining. The tour guide was funny, knowledgeable, and friendly. It was a super nice way to learn about Austin while sitting and resting. They offered us cold water bottles, had a sprinkler system that would spray everyone to keep us cool in 110°F weather, and they gave us a duck quacker to keep. The experience was really neat. Very family friendly!
There is too much to type!.... We had a blast. Family friendly and definitely recommend. My pictures and videos are a small part, and they speak for themselves, but the history of the city and river plus our driver Bob made it memorable. This is a must do tour if you're in Austin. Highly recommend it!!!!’
5 stars! I’m an Austin native and still learned so much from Captain Bob. Fun jokes, informative ride, and great weather! I do recommend the morning ride to keep cool.

The family and I were in Austin over the Memorial Day holiday weekend and thought the Austin Duck tour would be a perfect way to spend the morning! The tour meets at the Austin Visitors Center, and the best place to park is the Austin Convention Center parking garage (600 E 5th St). Once you check in at the Visitors Center, you will be instructed to line up on Red River Street. Boarding will begin about 15 minutes before your departure time. Be there early to avoid one of the bad seats! Upon boarding, you'll be given a yellow duck quacker. Come prepared to use it! We quacked at everyone and everything for the entire 75-minute tour! The looks we got from some people were priceless. After about 30 minutes of touring downtown (including the Capitol and 6th Street), we headed west to Colorado River, where we spent another 30 minutes learning about the history of Austin and enjoying the beautiful homes on the water. The last 15 minutes were spent driving back to the Visitors Center, where we deboarded and were on our way. Special shout out to our tour guide, Robert O (Captain Bob), who was easily one of the funniest, quick witted and knowledgeable guides I have ever met. 5 stars all around!

January 5, 2025Great tour! Our tour guide was entertaining and knowledgeable. I liked hearing the history of the buildings on 6th street. The boat ride was fun. The kids loved the duck bill quackers. I wish I would have brought a jacket and a hair tie. It gets windy when the bus is on the main road on the way to the boat ramp. It was definitely a fun way to spend an afternoon. The parking was easy, and the gift shop was nice with clean bathrooms. Thank you!
