The low growl of a massive diesel engine, the street rumbling under your feet and the loud nasal ramblings of a tour guide over a loudspeaker can only mean The Yellow Duck Marine is heading your way!
A strange feature of Liverpool’s streets and something that really, in it’s surreal, lo-​fi charm charm could only belong to this city, the duck tour is a guide around the city centre with a bizarre but functional twist. Whoever had the idea of converting an ex military amphibous vehicle into a method of transporting tourists around Liverpool’s streets and docks from the water itself is something of a genius and probably filthy rich right now!
Even now years after their first appearance you can still see Scousers’ eyes following the big yellow machines as they pass us on the street. The guides must be praised for their total enthusiasm as much as their knowledge because they constantly seem to be upbeat and ready with a joke. Good fun.

The Yellow Duck Marine tour is a unique one hour amphibious sightseeing tour, accompanied by live commentary, around Liverpool’s city and docks on a converted WWII DUKW landing craft!
Whilst on dry land the tour takes in Liverpool’s historic sights, then splashes down into the Salthouse Dock for a half hour trip of the dockland area, concluding in the Albert Dock.
As it seems, all this is obviously pretty overwhelming stuff and fun for kids. I know myself as I have been on it and felt like a big kid! Prices are quite moderate for this trip but you’re paying for something a whole lot different.
