This was a nice tour to see some different sites of Miami. I enjoyed learning more about the history of Miami and seeing a few houses owned by famous people. Overall, I would recommend this tour. It was not too long, but just long enough! Our captain and Lexi did a wonderful job navigating us around!

Non payment by Viator to DuckBoat provider

Robert_H, Jan 2026

I pay this company by credit card received tickets from Viator.Arrived at the Duck Boat to be told we could not go because Viator had not passed on my money for the trip.After sending Viator an email.I received an email from Viator stating l would get a refund to my credit card,this also has not happened.Avoid this company at all cost.Having travelled from the Uk this entirely ruined my last day.

Duck boat!

Megan_E, Jan 2026

Fun and informative tour! Lexi and the driver were very helpful and kind to my mom who has mobility challenges. Loved the tour itself, but the skate shop they do pick up at is a problem. The staff made clear they didn’t want to deal with duck boat people. Definitely started things off on the wrong foot….

Not what it used to be

Shravan_B, Dec 2025

The tour was okay, the guide mostly talked about food, and a little bit of Miami history, the tour was not what it used to be.

Good fun 😉

Jill_A, Nov 2025

Everything ran smoothly & to time, very informative & funny guide, would recommend for any age. Only problem being it leaves you feeling very envious of the lucky people that live in the exclusive homes.

Great tour

Brad_M, Oct 2025

Great experience. Great Captain and tour guide. The history of SOBE is very interesting and seeing the homes (and boats)of the rich on the islands👍

Fun Afternoon in Miami

WendyAnn_W, Oct 2025

Lexi was our guide and very animated. She shared a lot of info about the areas visited. Very bubbly and made it fun. Also included trivia questions and gave us ducks as prizes which made it fun for the kids. It's a fun tour since you also get to do a boat tour.

Great trip

AnaPatricia_G, Jul 2025

Norma_L, Jul 2025

Rick was a very good tour guide, he was knowledgeable and funny. Even though it absolutely poured shortly after starting our duck tour, the Captain and Rick did a great job.

Sam and Sharky on duck tours

Lorna_O, Mar 2020

Great tour really enjoyed the trip and the information about Miami thank you to Sharky and Sam who entertained us

Poor Tour

Dennis_R, Mar 2020

I didn’t think that the tour was that great, we saw very few points of interest. I thought that for a city this size that there should be more. We drove on a lot of streets that showed nothing and drove in the middle of the bay. The tour guide was rude to me because I had asked her why we were not leaving on time. You expected me to be 15 minutes early so I expected you to be on time.

David Rocks

MaryEllen_M, Mar 2020

David was a fabulous guide - he provided history, humor and an overall great experience. He and Captain Fritz are an excellent team.

Miami tourist must do!

Fun-filled overview of South Beach... and a cruise!

Mary_M, Feb 2020

Sam was a GREAT guide! Interacted well with the entire group, and also gave interesting info on what we were seeing -- from a few historic & architectural details to celebrity sightings and homes. Very fun afternoon.

Great Tour

This tour was really good, the guide had a wonderful personality, just hate that it was a small rain shower during it. But it was still fun.

Good way to spend 90 mins

Paul_D, Dec 2018

This is an informative tour with good views, but mainly from the bay. I wasn' t interested in the homes of the rich and famous, but there were many of them.

90 minute duck tour

Donna_C, Aug 2018

The duck boat tour was a great experience. Our tour guy Richie was very entertaining and informative. Fritz our driver got us all around Miami. Even though it rained we still had fun. Would recommend it to anyone.

Great tour

Liliam_C, Jul 2018

I recomend it. Was a great and funny tour. Our guide was very well educated and show everybody she is a good professional. She shows us everything in a smart and funny way.

Our tour guide was very entertaining...

Denise_T, Apr 2018

Our tour guide was very entertaining and made the tour around Miami both informative and fun. In my view the best tour to do if you have children and a great way to see Miami where the view from the water is just as important as a tour from street level.
