About this tour

A one-hour amphibious vehicle cruise departing from the Town of 1770 that takes you onto both land and water to spot local wildlife and coastal scenery. The vessel itself is the main draw — an unusual craft that transitions between terrain — and a guide provides live commentary throughout. It's family-friendly and requires no special fitness level, making it accessible for most visitors.

Highlights

  • Amphibious vehicle travels on land and water in one tour
  • Live guide commentary on local wildlife and history
  • Suitable for all fitness levels and ages with adult supervision
  • Operates daily regardless of weather conditions
  • Service animals welcome on board
  • Breathtaking coastal and riverside scenery from the water
  • Entertainment-focused experience, not a serious nature expedition

What to expect

You'll board an amphibious vehicle at Town of 1770 and set off with a driver-guide who provides running commentary as you travel. The vessel moves across both land and water, giving you different vantage points of the local area and wildlife. The guide points out what you're seeing and keeps the mood upbeat and entertaining throughout the journey.

The full experience lasts one hour. Infants sit on an adult's lap; children must stay with a supervising adult. The tour runs regardless of weather, so dress for conditions. There's no food or drink included, so bring your own if needed.

Good to know

This suits families and anyone after a fun, accessible way to see the town's waterways and wildlife without requiring hiking or specialised skills. It's lighthearted entertainment rather than a wildlife-spotting expedition. Bear in mind that it operates in all weather, so bring rain gear or sun protection depending on conditions. Infants travel free on an adult's lap. Food and drinks aren't provided — purchase these before boarding if you want them. The Vodafone network doesn't reach this location, so plan for limited mobile coverage. Groups size isn't specified; expect a small to mid-sized vessel.
