A great family outing on the aqua duck

We took our family of five on the aqua duck and everyone had a great time the kids all had a drive from three year old to teenager. I recommend this as a great way for your family to see the sights of the Gold Coast while relaxing and enjoying the entertaining commentary

Great family activities. Great experience for visitors from overseas!

Our second time to join the tour as family from overseas visiting us. Staff is always genuinely friendly. The gathering point is easily accessible in the heart of surfer paradise. Kids are really looking forward to being the little captain again and there they went. We booked the 4:45pm tour and the extra bonus was enjoying the sunset during the trip.
