Trip good - we went out of season and it was very quiet. Being warned before about the drivers plea for extra money was useful - see other reviews. The price is not cheap. Therefore it was an unpleasant surprise to see they had double charged my creidt card, and I wonder if it was deliberate as the two entries... more

We loved this tour! It's classic dells. It was a great way to see the area, the land part was great, you go through some of the canyon areas and then end up cruising the river, you then go back on land for a few minutes before ending up in Lake Delton. On the way back you through the woods... more

Bought tickets downtown on whim -- four adults and two kids (ages 4 & 2), took shuttle to facility on the Parkway. While waiting for tour, they take picture of your group, to sell you when you're done with trip. Went on a tour yesterday, conducted by Eric Connor (sp?). He was GREAT, and I'd recommend you seek out him... more

We loved the ducks tour itself. Although the stupid humor was getting annoying after a while we had a great time. Near the end of the tour they stop the ducks in the middle of the woods and the driver (in our case Elizabeth) is handing out booklets about the boats. Just right after accepting the booklets she is telling... more

Still the same old Ducks, same old jokes from 20 years ago, but it was a fun ride. Guide talked way too fast for us to understand most of the time. Very uncomfortable towards the end when he pretended the Duck broke down and then tried to sell us the $4 Duck books. He went on and on about the... more

This was our first trip on the Ducks and we had a lot of fun. My 3 and 8 yr olds loved it, and wanted to go again. The scenery was beautiful and our tour guide was great. They do pull over at the end and sell Ducks books for $4. This didn't bother us because we were going to... more

We have been on the duck tour in Branson and enjoyed it a lot, so we were looking forward to this tour in the Wisconsin Dells. When we go there the clerk in the gift shop gave us confusing directions on how to get to the entrance point. We walked out of the gift shop and then got confused by... more

This was our first experience riding any of the Ducks. We all really enjoyed the ride - it was better than we expected. Our driver (T.J.) was pretty entertaining - he did a great job with the corny jokes and interacting with the riders (especially the younger kids). The ride lasted almost an hour, and there was a nice variety... more

My family and I took the ducks yesterday. Now the good, driver was informative about the vehicle and the dells area, although not being from Wisconsin, some of the information not 100% accurate with regards to the flooding last year (2008). Vehicle ran well and performed as expected. You do get to see some beautiful scenery. About a 45 minute... more

A definite classic when it comes to Things Worth Doing in Wisconsin Dells, especially where one needs to "connect with nature" (as in how Wisconsin Dells originally became a touristic distraction in the first place). Especially the nearly-unintelligible commentary laced with corny gags and puns galore. Take it from someone who's had the honour and privilege of "riding shotgun" next... more
