This seem to be a more common usage. Simply south 21:03, 9 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Is this a franchise? Or a single owner? Or independent businesses that simply share a name/theme? Ewlyahoocom 04:31, 11 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

As far as i can tell i would guess the third one. Btw, it is not limited to te US. Simply south 11:40, 12 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Then this should probably be moved to a neutral term, like DUKW tour (about 1,610 google hits) or Amphibious vehicle tour (76 google hits). And maybe that Herschend Family Entertainment Corporation template should be removed, too? Ewlyahoocom 05:26, 13 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What appears to have happened is that this page was originally created specifically for the company "Ride The Ducks International, LLC". Here's an old version. If it makes sense, I think we should probably revert Ride the Ducks to that, and for all the tour companies either expand the DUKW#Tourist attraction section or start a new page .

OK, I've attempted to fix these up and now I don't think the move request is applicable so I will remove it. Ewlyahoocom 07:12, 13 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The Albany Aqua Ducks ended their tours in Albany, NY on July 15, 2012. They have been sold to another business in Key West, Florida. The reason for the sale was the fact that there was no new convention center built in Albany, (after a wait of a few years), the rising cost of fuel, and the decreasing amount of new customers. Plus, Albany, NY tours were limited to summer months, as it can get quite cold in autumn and spring, not to mention winter, when the Hudson river can freeze over. The ending of the run of Albany Aqua Ducks was a big local story, covered by all the newspapers and television stations in the region.204.80.61.133 (talk) 18:33, 17 July 2012 (UTC)Bennett Turk[reply]
