After reading some of the earlier reviews on this tour, we kept an open mind considering the fact that we're Malaysians and have been to Melaka before, with two small kids. Hence, we boarded the Duck Tour for the novelty. For the tour we were on, there were 6 adults and 2 kids on board. The guide spoke in Mandarin... More

I wish I had read the reviews before myself and friends joined this tour. We had experienced the Singapore duck tour which is very good so why not the Melaka one! Melaka is steeped in history and in 2008 was listed as a world heritage site by UNESCO and has been under the control of the portuguese, Dutch and the... More

This is without doubt the worst tour I have been on. Melaka is a wonderfully old city with great history, and beautiful buuldings... but this tour shows none of that. A desolate drive through the run down newer parts of town, followed by a half hearted motor around the sea - we didn't even go in the river. Staff look... More

Generally as a Malaysian myself i find it very expensive for the duck boat ride!however i do look at other angle of maintaining it as it goes long way during the world war two time,.It was previously being served by the americans during theworld war two! The journey starts at the town itself ,passing through the hustle and bustle of... More

I took the duck tour with my family and i find it bored. The duck tour guide speaks only Malaysia and little English. I do not understand what is he trying to say at all as I do not understand Malay. The route was boring. I find it a waste of time and money. And my hubby he actually slept... More

The tour is ok... Barely. The duck doesn't go up the river as advertised and if you aren't waiting at the front of the pickup location on the side with chairs say goodbye to getting a window seat More
