Land and Water in One Vehicle
The Amphibious Bus
One of the most unique aspects of this tour is the ability to travel on both land and water using a single vehicle. This vehicle is a refurbished model that was actually used during World War II. On land, it drives like a regular truck on the roads, and in the water, it functions like a boat with propellers and a waterproof hull, allowing you to cruise across the lake. This offers a distinctive experience, letting you navigate both land and water freely from within a classic bus. Its sturdy build and elevated seating also provide excellent visibility, making it easy to take in the surrounding scenery. Enjoy a special time in Rotorua with this amphibious bus.
