Great communication and great staff - both the hostess and captain were extremely patient with a full load of families and giving all 11 children on board a chance to "captain" the boat.

IT WAS A GREAT OUTING WITH MAGNIFICENT VIEWS AROUND MOOLOOLABA HARBOUR. JUST A LITTLE LESS COMMENTARY TO ALLOW OOH AND AAHS AND CONVERSATION BETWEEN FAMILY MEMBERS WITH LONG SILENT PAUSES BETWEEN WOULD BE BETTER. ALSO, SPEAK MORE SLOWLY AND ENUNCIATE MORE CLEARLY TO ALLOW TIME TO LOOK AT WHAT IS ACTALLY TO BE LOOKED AT. WOULD LOVE TO OWN AN AQUADUCK AS THE ULTIMATE MOTOR HOME.

We chose to travel on the Aqua Duck tour while on holidays on the Sunshine Coast. The staff were extremely friendly and gave a great tour of the local area. There were many jokes along the way and an overall cheerful vibe. Our two kids had a fantastic time and were overjoyed when they were given the chance to drive the vehicle. Highly recommended for a fun and informative activity on the Dunshine Coast!

Your Sunshine Coast tour on the Aquaduck will take you through the top attractions of the Sunshine Coast. The Aquaduck is the original amphibious tour of Australia, and has been operating on the Sunshine Coast since 1996, with more than 2.2 million satisfied customers! The experience will start with a tour on land. Some of the highlights of the land tour include the Esplanade, right next to Surfers Paradise Beach, Sunshine Strip, Mooloolaba Beach, and more. You will then splash right into the water, as your vehicle transforms into a cruise ship. Catch views of the diverse sea life along the coast, and discover the beauty of the Mooloolah River. Your onboard tour guide will offer some interesting live commentary about the geography, culture, and sights of the Mooloolaba River.

The Sunshine Coast Harbor is bustling with trawlers and ships before you make your way to the dense network of canals and waterways through the city. Here, you can see some of the mega-mansions of the rich and famous lining up along the waterfront. If you have kids in your group, they can get a chance to captain the Aquaduck! In addition to an unforgettable experience, the kids will also be given an Aquaduck captain’s certificate. At the end of 1 hour, the experience will come to an end, and you will be dropped back to the meeting point.
