You'll find out what a DUCKtour is, what it covers and its operating hours.
I've also got information on how to make a booking if you're raring to go on
one.
1. What's a DUCKtour?
Well, you may be asking, what is a DUCKtour?
Well, it's certainly not a tour with ducks around you, if that's what you're
thing. A DUCKtour is a specialist tour and is a one-of-a-kind amphibious themed tour attraction
within Asia.

What do you get in the DUCKtour? Well, you get
to have a combined Singapore Sity and Harbor tour in ONE vehicle. The
aforementioned vehicle can travel on both on land
and sea, and is essentially a 'boat' with huge wheels attached. There's a very
able DUCKtainer (tour guide) who sits on board and helps guide you along the educational and
instructive adventure.
2. What Does It Cover?
If you get on
the DUCKtour, you get to view some of the more spectacular attractions in
Singapore. Whether you're marveling at the Singapore's historical landmarks, the Merlion
Park, the Esplanade or Clifford Pier, you're in for a visual feast of sights and
sounds.
One of the best
things about the tour is that the vehicles goes right into the waters around the
Singapore city centre after the land ride. It's certainly a cool way to maximize
your experience in the city.

Conclusion

recommend it as it is a quick and good way to soak in Singaporean sights and
sounds (complete with a guide). Alternatively, if you prefer a more land based
tour, you can
