Austin Duck Adventures

Like a duck, love knows no bounds

What makes it fun

Austin Duck Adventures offers the only amphibious tours in Austin. We've been taking visitors on an amphibious tour of beautiful Lake Austin for over 15 years, and we know you'll have a huge smile when our big ducks land right in front of the Texas State Capitol building or at The Driskill Hotel for a drink after your tour. Come float with us!

Had an amazing time! I took the 3 PM tour with Roberto, he was hilarious, very entertaining, and I loved the way he engaged the crowds on and off the bus!

We thoroughly enjoyed our experience! Captain Bob was informative and entertaining, providing nitty-gritty info about the historical district, which musicians have performed in various venues over the years, and a peek at Austin culture. My grandkids enjoyed steering the boat in the Lake. A great time during our visit to Austin.

I moved from Chicago to Austin at 17 YOA to join the Army back in 2000. I have called Austin/Lakeway my permanent residence since getting out of the Army circa 2013.
All of that is to say Austin has changed a lot since 2000! My wife and I made a quick decision to take a tour with Austin Duck Adventures to catch up on some city history/information while having fun.

While the tour bus was almost completely packed full with all ages from young children to seniors, I was still comfortable and able to hear the guide perfectly fine. I don't remember his name other than it started with a "J". The driver's name was Kirk, or so they said, and I only remember that because they joked about the city's mayor having the same name.

The drive was smooth and comfortable on and off the road and the guide was very friendly and entertaining

For the most part you will travel on Cesar Chavez from the Austin's visitors center to out past Redbud St and Mozart's coffee where they drive into the water.

It was a great way to spend 75 or so minutes and reacquaint my wife and I with this ever changing city.

I thoroughly enjoy this experience. It’s a great way to learn about Austin without just driving around in the traffic. Yes you can do it yourself but nothing beats the experience Don gave us. 10/10 recommend. Being in the water was probably my favorite part and also quacking at people. I was such a big kid.

The Austin duck Adventures have always been a staple of the Austin area. Growing up my grandparents brought me on this tour and I was extremely excited to be able to share this experience with my children now.

It really is fun for all ages and you to see Austin in a fun and entertaining way. Are tour guide Bob was exceptional and we actually ended up picking up another tour guide who was off that day I don't remember his name but he was yodeling and together they made it a wonderful tour. I recommend this tour to anyone visiting Texas and we bring family there anytime they visit.

Fantastic way to spend 1.25 hours in the city. A nice preview of 6th street. The homes on the water were amazing. Great for all ages!

I really enjoy this tour! Is very nice, funny, fresh, and your learn a lot about the city… this is a must that you should do when you come to visit Austin. As soon as you arrive you need to check on the store first. The parking lot is next to the Austin visitor center… the tour is around an hour, the funny part is you go to the water and float… I really love it

We had an amazing time! The tour guide was very knowledgeable about the Downtown Austin area (although he lives in CA 😳, we decided not to hold it against him bc he was awesome 👍). I wanted more time in the water but I'll have to do that another time. The music was diverse and well selected for the moments. It wasn't as hot as I imagined and there were little burst/spraying of water that would assist with keeping us cool. I would definitely recommend this tour for a nice family outing, an adventurous group trip, or just a nice date! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I HIGHLY recommend this tour even if you've visited a few times already!
The tour guides are very interactive and make the whole tour enjoyable!
Remember, this tour takes place on both the road and in the water of the lake.
