I called this company three times and left detailed messages. I have never received a phone call back despite what their outgoing message promises. If they're that bad pre-voyage Customer Service, I can only imagine how terrible this services on the ride itself! I guess some other pirate abducted them and they're unable to conduct business in a professional manner! read more

My brother was in town visiting so I took to Yelp and Groupon and found this duck tour. At first we decided to visit the barber shop that the tour people were selling tickets out of; we found this by using the address provided on the their website. We went with the cheaper deal on Groupon. The duck boat was parked in front of a park. We got there early so there was no line. The boat was really clean and new looking. There was the captain and the narrator, both were dressed like pirates since the theme of this boat was a pirate ship. They were both friendly and informative; the narrator did a great job with hosting and telling jokes; keeping us awake. They drove us around town and pointed out different buildings and landmarks. The coolest part was when we drove from land into water! It made a big splash but we didn't get wet. We cruised by mansions and other boats. They did a great job with the tour and I'd definitely recommend it. Bring tip money. read more

This ride was awesome. A vehicle that goes both in land and on water. The guide and captain were amazing. They knew the landmarks and who owned which home and some of the history of the area. We arrived at the last minute and they waited for us to go to the bathroom. We even saw a dolphin following the boat for a few minutes. Really cool to see. I would have gave it 5 stars but at times the guide was hard to hear as we were sitting near the back and the microphone kept going in and out. read more

Miami Pirate Duck Tours - Great time - Tours Near Me - Miami Beach, Florida

This tour is DA BOMB!!! Boat is brand new, with added features that separate it from competitors. We did the tour under the rain but roll down windows kept us dry. I highly recomend it. Thumbs up!! read more

Whooo...what a great tour! Trevor, our "Pirate Guide" knows everything about Miami I think ... neat tour on land then splash into beautiful Biscayne Bay....so much cool info....the BeeGee park....the Mansion owned by 14 cats and their caretakers, all the info on all the stars homes.... Trevor also gives so much interesting info on the many movies and tv shows filmed here. This is just such a great tour. I live in Broward County and tho close to me I really did not "know' that much about SoBe and the Art Deco and/or about Biscayne and the luxury islands...so this was totally fascinating and so much fun! Great tour, great guide, great music...and wait till you roll back "Gagnum Style" I would like to give this 10 stars...thanks so much read more

Arrrr, it's a good time matey. I've been on this trip a couple of times, most recently grabbing the kids to bring along. I visit Miami often enough (and was I born there), I don't think I need a tour to introduce me to anything, but it's really informative while being fun. You start by LIncoln Road Road mall, and then ride through parts of South Beach. Along the way you're given a summary on art deco style and the history of Miami Beach, while various buildings are pointed out. Then the fun happens. You take a plunge into the water to tour the bay, which is kind of surreal, going from bus to boat in a few seconds. Cruising through the bay, famous houses and landmarks are pointed out, going around Star Island and Fischer Island. You forget you are in a bus, until you emerge back onto land by Jungle Island, continuing eventually down Ocean Drive before coming back full circle to where you started, in front of the convention center. The entire excursion is about 2 hours, with entertaining stories about Miami Beach, music breaks, and a few intros to the locals. The cool thing is that the information evolves, so in the year between my trips, there was enough new info the 2nd time to still be entertaining and new. Good stuff, a great way to get to know SoBe. read more

This tour was great being on land and it was fun going into the water too. They had a special on their site for only $22 (plus tax), better than the Groupon rate. DeeDee our tour guide was very informed, funny and the music that went along with the various sites made it more fun. We sang along. DeeDee took pics of each group and secretly took a pic of herself. It was cute. I uploaded her pic. I'd recommend it to anyone. read more

We had a great time! The driver and tour guide were both entertaining. I don't know how the tour guide keeps up her energy! If it's your first time in Miami, I definitely recommend. Land to sea, they make sure you see and learn a great deal about the area. The tour boat is quite comfortable as well. Shortly after our tour started the driver was notified that a few people arrived late. He kindly let us know and turned around to pick them up. I thought that was pretty cool. That could have easily been any of us. read more

we did this tour for our office Christmas party and it was great fun. Even though we all live in Miami, and work on the beach, everyone enjoyed seeing the bay and the beach from this perspective. The guide is hilarious and has a ton of anecdotes and funny stories, all of which I assumed to be true, unlike some guides who make shit up. He has a vast amount of trivia and gossipy info on the fancy houses. He plays funny pop songs, and the drive down Ocean drive is fun, clearly the merchants know him and his shtick, and enjoy when he passes by. I recommend this wholeheartedly for a group activity or as a tourist. read more

Totally 5 stars! We enjoyed this tour so much! Not only what we learned and we live in Miami, but it was so different, fun and unique! Price is great, totally worth it! But, make sure you take this one, cause there are few with same concept not as fun. This company was the first, and it keeps improving, now with new amphibious boats top of the line. I will defenately do it again when my family comes to visit Miami! read more

I really enjoyed this tour! The tour starts off by taking a little drive down Washington before turning into a neighborhood of typical Art Deco houses. Then the tour takes you out over the McArthur causeway to Biscayne bay where most of the tour took place. We sailed close to palm and star island to get a basic view of the fantastic properties owned by the world's rich and famous. After we got back on land we headed back to the original embarkation point and took a nice ride down Ocean Drive. The tour guide had a lot of great recommendations about where to eat! Our tour guide was really great and funny. She told us to call her Sara if we didn't like the tour but now I can't think of her real name! Some of the jokes were a bit corny but it's definitely more of a family tour kind of thing, take the kids. The music was a good level, not too loud like some of the other reviews complained. I really liked sailing around on the water so just that alone was enough for me. The price was really quite excellent as well. We bought our tickets the day of and only paid about $22 a piece! read more

We reserved the tour for the specific date and time and came just on time in a group of 10 people where 4 of them were small kids. We called in advance and confirmed that we are coming from far away(50 minutes ride) to make sure that all seats were reserved for us. However, when we came the boat was full with no seats available, kids were crying. In addition, instead of offering us a complimentary tickets as any well respected business would do, they blamed us on coming late. How do you like that? Please save your time and money and go to other Duck Tour which is around the corner. We did it and were super happy with them. read more

So glad we took this tour! We had debated on going on a different one but sure glad we chose this one. Ashley, the tour guide, is the reason we had so much fun. She was fully committed to entertain us with facts and music. It was an enjoyable ride and the perfect way to see the sights. read more

This trip was great, a little corny, but great. I took my mother her husband and my Boyfriend and we all enjoyed it. Even getting stuck in traffic was entertaining. read more

This tour is a BLAST!!! But you have to take it for what it is. Remember you are riding around in a Pirate Duck boat for f**ks sake. Full disclosure, I'm from Miami and I had some serious reservations about taking this tour. I mean what if people who know me actually saw me in this thing? But you know what, after taking the tour I highly recommend it to all my fellow Miamians. And you tourists too. So throw your coolness out the window and just go have a good time. read more

I found the Miami Pirate Duck Tours to be a worthy use of 90 minutes. It was fun to see some of the beautiful, large mansions on the various islands around Miami. The land-based portion of the tour was pretty much a throwaway. The Duck boat itself is very nice and quite comfortable. The guide & captain were extremely friendly and enthusiastic. I found the tour narration to be suspect as far as accuracy and being interesting. Also, the music was way too loud throughout the tour. read more

This tour was amazing. The piratess was welcoming, friendly, knowledgeable and very funny. I would def take this tour again. read more

Was a little skeptical at first but my boyfriend and I (both in our mid twenties) had a fabulous time! We were in Miami a few weeks ago when the weather wasn't cooperating, so we decided to do an activity - and we couldn't be happier that we chose this one! The hosts were fabulously entertaining and the tour was fun with everyone dancing and singing along. HIGHLY RECOMMEND FOR ANYONE! read more

Not your typical city tour. A fun way to tour Miami by land and water. Terrific for families, very interactive, full of music, history and information while being entertained by your pirate tour host. read more

They think they're sneaky and I wasn't going to figure out the had two Yelp accounts under different names!?? Well like I said on their other Yelp, their tour was horrible and what business conducts business out of a barbershop!!? Also they're NOT THE ORIGINAL DUCK TOURS you need to visit the ORIGINAL "DUCK TOURS SOUTH BEACH" they were very friendly, actually have an office, and the tour was awesome highly recommend them!!! read more

My sister and I stumbled across this tour while walking and we were so glad we did it! Ashley and captain Floyd made the trip so enjoyable! Breathtaking views of Miami Beach and star islands...nice tour. I highly recommend it! read more

Great tour! Tour guide makes it entertaining and fun! Tour is about 90 minutes and takes you through Miami beach land and water.

Loads of fun!! Try to choose a tour time around sunset for amazing views of the city. Tour guide/Pirate Ashley was a riot, entertaining and knowledgable too! read more

What a rip off! I reserved a duck tour for my family and me a month in advance. To my dismay, we waited in the location stated on their website for over an hour and no one ever showed. And despite them having my information on file, no one even contact me to let me know that they were canceling the tour. We decided to go on a different ducks tour right around the corner and it was so worth it... No regrets. Save your money don't use this company. read more

Such a fun way to see the city! Our guide, Ashley, was energetic, full of great information, and super fun. Kids and adults really enjoyed the tour! read more

Great time! Friendly, fun, informative! Excellent energy! Highly recommend! Do this at the start of your trip to have an idea of the history and culture that is Miami! read more

Called to get some information, owner Andy was very rude and rushed us off the phone. Not a great first impression.

The tour was great, very fun and informative. The guide was really entertaining, he spoke 8 languages which I thought was pretty awesome. Great deal on Groupon and on there actual website. read more

Great and fun tour the "pirates" were fun and keep the tour different than most boring tours where a guide just talks an ear to deAth although the it was a little short in the water it was still very fun read more

Fun tour. Michael rocked it as the guide with his witty style. I'm a local but had a 15 year old visiting and thought this trip was a good fit--we all agreed, it was perfect! read more

This tour was a blast! Michael was our tour guide and kept us thoroughly entertained the entire time. His playlist was on point and his dance skills were even better. The tour lasted 90 minutes and took you into Biscayne Bay where you got to see celebrity homes and to Ocean Blvd to see the shops. Overall a great tour and would highly recommend it! read more

The tour was kinda lengthy but the tour guide and the captain made the experience extra ordinarily fun. The tour guide provide some interesting details and facts, not too much to overwhelm you with a history lesson . Kids may fall asleep , my 5 year old daughter stayed up for about 45min but when they started showing only celebrity adobes she fell asleep. read more

Okay, If you want to go on a duck tour, CHOOSE ANYTHING ELSE! We bought our ticket and were in "line", and they oversold by 10 people!! We were not let on and the "Captain" was a jerk! Use the other one across the street! They were great! read more

I so enjoy the pirate duck cruise today. My wife and I took the 230pm cruise and it's was storming but we had a awesome time. Despite the rain pirate Ashley made it fun and engaging. Highly recommend it. read more

If you are interested in dancing to a bizarre variety of music and learning the alleged homes of various stars, this is the tour for you. If, however, you are into pirates and/or any substantive history of Miami or South Beach, this is not the tour for you. Such a disappointment. Arrrrrrrrrrr. read more

pretty cool ride, the guide was kind of nuts but in a funny way...

My friend and I bought tickets for this tour through Groupon. It was a very hot day, so we were excited about the idea of a tour that would get us out on the water. This one seemed to have good reviews online, and was reasonably priced ($25/person through Groupon for a 90-minute tour). A "duck" tour means that the vehicle is both a bus on land and a boat in the water. The tour takes off on land. Our bus was full of people from all over, mostly in the U.S. Our tour guide, Pirate Deedee (I think that was her name) really made the experience fun! She joked throughout the whole tour and kept us laughing, but she clearly also knew her stuff. The tour took us through South Beach and Biscayne Bay, where we learned a lot about the history of the area and also saw some incredible sights and homes. I was thoroughly entertained for the entire ride, and would have happily continued, despite the uncomfortable seats and hot temperatures. Three cheers for Captain Floyd (the captain of the duck vehicle!) and Pirate Deedee. read more

Great tour! Friendly driver and tour guide is very informative and entertaining. Takes 90 minutes approximately, we enjoyed every minute of the tour! Best way to learn Miami Beach! read more

Get on the boat/bus with Kenny. He makes the trip entertaining and he knows almost everything about Miami. Make sure you have a camera ready! Oh, and you can go rain or shine because they have a roof, and window gaurds to shield you. read more
