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.
