The Experience

Your experience A quintessential Queensland experience Take the “world’s first” amphibious Aquaduck Safari, which has been running since 1996. Whether you’re short on time or not, this tour shows you the best of the Gold Coast in a jiff. Your journey begins in the heart of Surfers Paradise on Cavill Avenue. You'll board the famous yellow 'Duck' vessel, an amphibious vehicle that's become a true Gold Coast icon. As you set off, you'll get to see the famous 'Surfers Paradise' sign - a great photo opportunity! Take in the breathtaking Pacific Ocean from your standpoint, while picking up facts about the Gold Coast you knew not of. You’ll also see the Southport Yacht Club, Palazzo Versace, and Marina Mirage before you head to the Broadwater. Kids get to be Captain The real excitement begins when you reach the Broadwater. Get ready for the famous "splash down" as our Aquaduck seamlessly transitions from land to water. Float about the shimmering waters of the Gold Coast as you enjoy this scenic cruise. Once you're on the water, all children on board will have the opportunity to take the wheel and drive the Aquaduck! The skipper will invite each child to have a turn if they wish. As a memento of their time as captain, each child who drives will receive a personalized Aquaduck Captain's Certificate. It's a great souvenir to take home and show off to friends and family.
