There’s a new way to experience Cape Town — and it’s making waves. Meet The Waterfront Duck Co., home to Africa’s first and only amphibious passenger vehicle tour, affectionately known as the “Duck.”

Based at the iconic V&A Waterfront, this one-of-a-kind attraction offers guests a quirky, entertaining, and surprisingly insightful way to see the city — by both land and water. The Duck Tour begins and ends in the Silo Hotel / Zeitz MOCAA precinct, with multiple one-hour tours departing daily.

Each tour includes approximately 20 minutes on the road, winding through the Waterfront’s vibrant precincts, and around 4 minutes in the water, where guests glide across the harbour aboard a SAMSA-approved, modern amphibious vehicle. Whether you’re a local or a first-time visitor, the Duck Tour offers an unexpectedly delightful new perspective on one of Cape Town’s most visited destinations.

Adding to the fun are the energetic and knowledgeable “ConDUCKtors” — live tour guides who blend humour, storytelling, and local insight into a lighthearted experience packed with history, ecology, and a touch of theatrical flair. From the city’s maritime heritage to its contemporary cultural revival, guests are treated to a colourful narrative that’s both informative and wildly entertaining.

Of course, no Duck Tour would be complete without learning how to “Quack Quack” — a signature moment that’s as fun for adults as it is for kids.

At the helm are the certified and experienced “QUACKtains”, who ensure that every tour is safe, smooth, and enjoyable. As a SATSA-accredited experience, The Waterfront Duck Co. meets all safety and operational standards while delivering something truly fresh for itineraries targeting both domestic and international visitors.

If you’re curating unique Cape Town experiences for families, school groups, incentive travellers, or FITs looking for something different — this is the kind of product that leaves a lasting impression.
