Boston Duck Tours. Have a Blast and Learn Something New!
Starting on March 26, they're back. The Ducks are coming back! Some say it seems like too much of a "touristy" thing to do. But even the residents of Boston love Boston Duck Tours. I have been on the tour 5 times in 3 years, and would do it again in a heartbeat; every time I have a visitor, I try to convince them to take the tour. Duck Tours give you an anything but boring tour of Boston, and you will leave the boat feeling like you've become educated about the city, and have a blast in the process!
Each tour guide becomes a personality to guide you on the tour- a pirate, magician, Red Sox fan, you never know who you're going to get as you board the giant amphibious duck boats. And all guides have a sense of humor and actively seek audience participation. They tell jokes throughout the tour, and point out various hidden gems around the city that you might not otherwise know about.
Your tour will start either at the Museum of Science in Cambridge or the Prudential in Boston, depending on where you get your tickets. Your guide will take you by the State House and Beacon Hill, Government Center, Quincy Market, Boston Common, Newbury Street, Bunker Hill, and more. The tour ends with the amphibious vehicle you're in splashing into the Charles River. Your guide will allow you to drive the boat if you choose as you cruise around the river.
If you are visiting Boston, you should definitely check Boston Duck Tours out. And if you live in Boston and think you know everything about the city, go on the tour and quickly realize that there's even more to learn! Quack Quack!
