Adventure Awaits: Explore Lake Havasu with Rubba Duck Safari

When you're visiting Lake Havasu, there are a few things you must do to really soak in the magic of the area: spend time on the water, take in the desert views, and do something you’ll talk about for years to come. That’s where Rubba Duck Safari comes in.

This isn’t your average boat rental. It’s an adventure. A memory-maker. And one of our favorite ways to see the lake through the eyes of a local—while steering your own boat.

 What Is Rubba Duck Safari?

Rubba Duck Safari offers guided boat tours where you drive your own boat—no boating license or experience required. These custom-designed boats are compact, colorful, and easy to handle, making the entire experience fun, approachable, and full of personality.

Before you head out, a friendly member of the Rubba Duck crew gives you a walkthrough on how to drive. Then, you’ll follow your experienced guide across the water, stopping at scenic coves, landmarks, and wildlife hotspots along the way.

Think guided tour meets water adventure... with you at the wheel.
