Ride The Ducks

This was a blast!
Going from land to water and back is pretty cool. We toured the immediate Downtown-​Northern Kentucky area. Our guide, Kevin, had some cool stories about a lot of the sights. If you want an in-​depth history, it wont happen here. But, we sang and laughed and waved to all the people who weren’t on the boat. And those quackers. If you aren’t fond of a lot of noise, try to take a tour with as few children as possible. If you love the Quacker’s ~~ you will be in heaven.
One last note ~~
The tour comes to $ 19 per person with tax.
They take your picture before getting on the boat. That can run you another $ 24 for two large pictures, 4 small ones and two keychains. If you are on a budget, you might get a boatmate to do the honors.

This is definitely a ‘kids tour’? As another review suggested ages 10 and younger! Anyone looking for a history lesson needs to keep on looking. You’ll get some highlights of the Reds stadium, flood water levels, and how expensive the mansions are along the riverside, but highlights only, nothing more.
Yet, you can’t pass up the novelty of driving from the street into the river! That was pretty cool, no matter how old you are!

This is simply ok unless you’re drunk or under the age of 10, I could then see it being great and loving it. If you’re looking for a history tour, I suggest reading a book, if you’re looking for a gimmicky touristy thing, do this. The history is interesting, the quackers and the singing, not so much.

This was so cute and so much fun!!! The tour guide and captain were both great! We got there kind of late and almost had to split up to be seated. I was upset about that but luckily we managed to move things around and be right in front of each other. This was so fun for the kids! The scenery was awesome as well. I would mention Tiffany’s on the tour though. Not many cities have a Tiffanys!

LOVED LOVED LOVED this !!!
I was visiting my sis and we both did the tour and had SO much fun!
Zack the guide was absolutely amazing with a great sense of humor.
Learned a lot!!!
DEFINITELY worth the ticket price.
Looks on peoples’ faces on the street while we quacked were great!
We’d definitely do it again.

Supposedly they give some HISTORY on the tour but the kids sitting behind us NEVER stopped LOUDLY ‘quacking’ so we didn’t hear a thing. And I do mean they NEVER stopped and the decibels of those quackers is extremely loud. Waste of money if you actually want an interesting tour. Too bad the guide didn’t ask them not to quack while she was talking. The guide offers times throughout the tour for QUACKING but I don’t think the quackers are meant to be non-​stop. Of course, the parents didn’t step-​in either to ask them to stop for a little while. (No big surprise there.) Save your $ 17 bucks (per person).

This tour was pretty cool but not long enough. The total tour is about 45 minutes and a half hour of it was in the water pretty much floating at a fast pace, the duck doesn’t go very fast in the water. Didn’t leave much time for an actual tour on land (about 10 mins). Didn’t expect a lot for the price though. If you have nothing going on I would recommend it but if you are trying to plan your whole day around this do not waste your time with it.

From Cincinnati and this was still a ton of fun! Learned a bunch about the area from Captains Dave and Bill!
