FOR FUN, IT'S THE DUCKBOATS! PLUS YOU WILL LEARN A LOT TOO! these are World War 2 amphibious landing craft, refurbished for tourism. You start on dry land, and later plunge into the Charles River. Our driver was absolutely excellent. Funny and informative. Check my "things to do" tips for more duckboat information. |  | | A PURPLE DUCKBOAT PLIES THE CHARLES RIVER |
