Begin your adventure on wheels and water

The Quack'rDuck vehicle, designed for land and river cruising, takes you past lively beaches and through city streets before making a splash into the Gold Coast's sparkling Broadwater. This multi-mode tour means you get the best of both worlds—no missed views, and no transfers needed.
