This time, we’ve heard about a new attraction that allows you to explore Tokyo both on land and water, so our Payke team jumped on board right away!
We’ll share our impressions from the ride, so feel free to use it as a reference.
What is Sky Duck? How is it different from a water bus?
From Skybus Official website
The Sky Duck is an amphibious bus that you can enjoy in Tokyo. It offers a new kind of sightseeing experience, allowing you to not only view the attractions from land but also take a ride on the water.
While there are water buses for sightseeing in Tokyo, the Sky Duck runs on land and then seamlessly transitions to the water.
This unique shift from “land to water” provides a dynamic experience that everyone can enjoy, from children to adults. It’s an attraction you definitely want to try when you visit Tokyo!
Main Routes and Highlights
Sky Duck offers routes that take you through Tokyo’s popular spots like Odaiba, Toyosu, and Asakusa.
On each route, you can enjoy iconic landmarks such as Tokyo Tower, Rainbow Bridge, and Tokyo Skytree from various angles—both on land and on water.
Some routes even explore historical buildings and stunning waterfront areas, allowing you to experience the diverse charm of Tokyo to the fullest.

The most exciting highlight is when you leap into the water!
The highlight of this tour is the moment the bus dives from land into the river or sea.
As the countdown reached “3, 2, 1,” we plunged into the water, and the entire bus erupted in cheers, celebrating the thrilling leap!
The sensation of splashing into the water and being surrounded by the cheers of everyone on board is a unique experience you won’t find on a typical sightseeing bus tour!
Additionally, after our splashdown, the guide shared fascinating insights about the amphibious bus, as well as Tokyo’s rich history and culture, allowing us to learn while having fun.
