In Short – The narrated driving/boating tour, approximately 90 minutes in length, starts near West First Street, near the Radison by Town Lake. Riding aloft in your British Alvis Stalwart (aka duck), you'll visit the Capitol Building, Governor's Mansion, LBJ Library, Sixth Street, Congress Avenue and splash down in scenic Lake Austin. The "duck" can hold 45 people; larger groups, family or corporate parties can be accommodated at the party pavilion on Fifth Street.

A recommended stop for people new to town or with young children (or young at heart)

I took my family on the duck tours today. It was a nice stop. They hand out quacking noise makers to each guest, which does get old after a few minutes, but still fun. The driver was friendly and had good knowledge of Austin.
The feeling of "driving" from the road into the water is neat.
Make sure to call ahead for seats and parking suggestions (it's downtown).
