Swimming Bus lets you take Splashtours through Rotterdam

May 17 2010, 6:04am CDT | by Luigi Lugmayr

Rotterdam got a cool attraction with Splashtours. You can see the city in an amphibious passenger bus.
The swimming bus has 42 seats and looks pretty normal when on the street. The bus has been custom designed to be able to swim like a boat. The bus can achieve speeds of 8 knots and apparently there are already other cities interested in offering Splashtours.

You can watch the video below to see the amphibious bus in action.
