Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This tour was disappointing. Our tour guide was funny but a little too much. More interesting information and a little less banter would have been better. Very hard to take any photos as always on the move. The Army Duck as a form of transport was interesting but a little underwhelming. I felt a little sorry for those on the tour if English was not their native tongue as I doubt they understood much of what was said.

An interesting afternoon trip in a very unusual vehicle with a great up beat driver/guide. Great locations and enjoyable even though the weather was poor.

Excellent ducktour. A captain provided all needful information about the lakes and their background history. Highly recommended.

The only thing I would like to suggest to improve this tour further is we should be provided with 5 mins to step out of the duck to take the lovely pictures of ourselves with the amazing lakes background for our memory.

The guide was funny with a good sense of humour. He shared local knowledge which made it interesting. The actual trip onto the water was not so interesting.

Booked this on the spur of the moment when we had seen Matilda parked in the street the day before. It was a really brilliant couple of hours and would highly recommend it for a short city tour and then the thrill of going in the water. Our guide (Matt I think) was really knowledgeable about the local history and also the wildlife.
