 City Splash-down Tour |
The Anchorage Mall @ Fisherman's Wharf 2800 Leavenworth St San Francisco, CA 94133 +1 415 435 3825 http://www.bayquackers.com |
Take one lively veteran, a large WWII amphibious landing craft, and about 90 minutes, what do you get? Well if you said a re-creation of D-Day you should brush up on your history. San Francisco now has what has been popular in many different cities along waterlines and coastlines - the Duck Tour! Taken from a refurbished military amphibious transport truck (DUKW), the tour cruises around Fisherman's Wharf through Chinatown and North Beach, across Market St., into SoMa, and then splashes into the bay for a tour to explore this wonderful city in a way very few can. Despite the endless duck jokes and being stuck in traffic (the 5pm tour is not recommended), you can be rest assured that your Duck tour will be informative, humorous, and eventful. When you plunge into the water behind AT&T Park, the Duck takes you around the cargo ship James Martin to a spectacular view of downtown San Francisco and the ballpark all the while discovering interesting facts and secrets about some of San Francisco's most famous attractions. You even get to listen to a few big band tunes if you're lucky. Needless to say, the Duck gets quite a lot of attention and comments from onlookers on the street, but with a few repetitive "quack, quack's" from the captain and the crew, they are usually silenced into confusion and you can be on your way. Tours leave daily, every two hours from 11a to 7p from the Anchorage Mall at Leavenworth and Beach Streets. Be sure to ask for special offers and discounts regarding large groups. - Casey Doward Prices: Adults $35, Children $25, Seniors, $32. Tickets can be purchased from the Anchorage Kiosk on Leavenworth. Discounts: Families (2 Adults, 2 Children) - $100 Adult Group (20 or more) - $30 Review © 2009, Wcities |
