For a couple of hours of quacking good family fun you can take the kids to experience one of Boston’s popular Duck Tours. The fun starts the moment you step on board your DUCK (an amphibious vehicle similar to a WW II landing craft) and meet your conDUCKtor, who will be telling you all about the famous Boston highlights you will see on the tour. Tours depart from the New England Aquarium, Prudential Center or the Museum of Science and each tour follows a slightly different route. The most exciting part of the tour is when your DUCK plops into the Charles River, from where you will see breathtaking views of the Boston and Cambridge skylines. Tours run daily from 21st March to the 25th November.
