DUCK TOURS (NOT THE QUACK QUACK DUCKS!)

What a fun way to see the sights.
Your kids will love it, we did!

We went on the one in London, you get to see the sites on road and then it drives right into the river Thames.
It is alittle unnerving but my son loved it.
Now it's not the most informative tour and was rather rushed but we would do it again!


On land (as you can see by Liam's face he loved it).......


and on water!
 

SORRY CAN'T SEEM TO UPLOAD ANY PHOTO'S AGAIN AT THE MOMENT!


"It's fun, it’s quirky and it’s different!"


"A Duck Tour is a totally unique way to see the sights. You are rewarded not only with a live guided road tour of the City of Westminster, passing landmarks such as Trafalgar Square, the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben, but you are also treated to an unforgettable trip on the river, without ever leaving the comfort of your seat! All this on an historic vehicle used for the D-day landings in 1944."

There are also duck tours in:



Devon


Have a great family fun day out!!!
