The authentic WWII Duck is a neat vehicle. However, not much legroom for someone over 6 feet, and the seats are a bit small in width for a heavier person - no way to fit two people side by side if you're big and tall. Those infantrymen were young, fit, and nimble.

If you have a limited amount of time in DC, this is a fun way to get an overview of the monuments. We did drive past the Lincoln Monument, the White House, the Smithsonian Museums, the Capitol Building, Arlington National Cemetery and into the Potomac River. We could see the Washington Monument from pretty much everywhere and while in the Potomac, everyone who wanted to had a chance to drive the D.U.C.K. We watched a plane land at Reagan National Airport which was pretty exciting. Our tour guide was great about sharing interesting facts and told us when great photo spots where coming up. We weren't able to get off the DUCK and it we didn't make many photo stops but it was a fun experience and I would recommend it for a quick overview of the city. Captain Bucky was great!

I love the Duck Boats! This was the greatest way to get an overview of all D.C. In a short time. Our driver was extremely knowledgeable about all the sights, museums and monuments. The best part was when we went into the Potomac river! He took us out into the middle, then let anyone who wanted to, drive the boat._br/_ I totally recommend Duck Boats for the first day you are here, they are way more fun than a bus!

Our trip was wonderful. It was relaxing, informative and friendly. The captain was awesome, funny and knowledgeable. Our group was a family of 7. We had wanted to do this tour for years, and it was worth the wait. We will certainly do it again when we are in Washington DC.

Great short tour. Especially if you have young kids who get to drive the duck when it gets into the Potamac.

Fun, but not much to see on the DC waterfront. The land portion was okay.

Fun trip, great value! Would do this again. Duck captain was knowledgeable and interesting. Be sure and bring some water with you, especially if it's hot out.

The DC Duck tour was great to do on our first day to get a good lay of the land. My kids loved it and having the planes fly literally right over our heads was a huge plus! Captain Bill was extremely informative and we learned lots of extras along the way. This is a great tour for anyone coming to the DC area and I thought it was well priced for the 1.5 hours we were on the Duck.

My only issue is with the Viator company that arranged my tickets. NOT with DC Duck Tours, they were great. I could have simply dealt directly with DC Duck Tours and had no issues with the tickets and the cost was the same. The primary issue the online ticket was not effective, it required me to go to a ticket booth to pick up tickets and Viator gave me no instructions about picking up the tickets, I was lead to believe I had all I needed from what I printed online and all I had to do was show up and get on board, not so. _br/_ Regarding the Duck Tour itself, depending upon your expectations -this is a great trip or a good one. If you want to take great pictures then I don't recommend because the tour rarely comes to a stop. If you just want to listen to the Captain and enjoy the sites and his personal commentary, then this trip is spot on, I recommend it.

A generally fun time. A little corny, but the tour guide was funny and had some great information. Great for kids!

Great way to get in a quick tour of DC. Captain Franklin was very knowledgeable and entertaining at the same time. Sitting on the left side affords more opportunity to get in pics without other riders getting in the way.

This was a fun tour - great sights and the guide was fabulous!

The DC Duck tour is a fun adventure. We had an excellent guide who was able to inform and entertain us. We drove by many of DC's landmark buildings and locations but, of course, the run into the Potomac was the expected highlight of the tour. The kids onboard even had a turn piloting the Duck! Planes overhead to/from DCA added extra excitement.
