"Austin Duck Adventures is one of the longest running tours in Austin for a reason. The tour shows you some cool parts of Austin with a spin around Lake Austin that is known for making a splash with the entire family. It's great to get out of downtown and see the surrounding areas. Due to its high popularity and reasonable pricing, it stays in our Top 5 Things to Do in Austin."

"After visiting Austin a few times over the last year, we finally had a chance to take the Duck Tour. We had fun, enjoyed the views, and learned a bit about Austin along the way. This tour definitely helps keep Austin weird."

"Super cool and fun way to tour the city of Austin on land and water. Our tour guide was very entertaining, friendly, and knowledgeable of the city. He provides each person with little quackers to offer up quacks to those we pass along the way."
