Thrilling as well as informative. Our captain gave us information and history about the Dells we would never have learned elsewhere. The ride was just as described by the very nice people at the ticket booth. We enjoyed power stops, spins, and a wild ride. everyone got wet, some more than others. Our captain, Brian, was excellent at handling the... more

Not sure where the negative reviews are coming from, but we had a great time. This was the attraction we had no doubt we wanted to do before we left. So as soon as we were at the Dells we drove out to the sales booth and bought our tickets and made reservations. The young man at the counter was... more

We took the noon tour and it was Captain Ron on the larger boat. My son, who is 10, wanted to sit in the spot where you would get really wet. My 7 year old was right next to him. They definitely got wet so they thought it was fun. There were several 180's, but no "360's" as advertised. We... more

My family took me here for fathers day on June 22, 2009.My wife made the reservation as recommended on the website. After an hours drive we arrived 45 minutes before the 2PM tour. After waiting 45 minutes we were told the 2PM tour was canceled. Only six people had arrived for the tour and eight was the number needed due... more

About 8 years ago my family and I went on The Dells Experience Jet Boats. It was a BLAST!!! We finally made it back to the Dells and decided we had to take the tour again. We soon discovered that there were two new companies that started up since we'd been on the tour. We found the brochure for The... more

This was our first trip on a jet boat, even though we have (collectively) been to Wisconsin Dells over 20 times! I did a lot of research and asking around before we decided on Captain Ron's Jet Boats. I say this because there are several to choose from, and with all the prices being comparable (they do not exactly give... more

This place takes reservations for tours that do not exist. The whole idea of a reservation is that you will be riding the jet boat at the time you reserved. This is not how this place does business. If you have a reservation and show up, you don't go on the boat. You wait in the parking lot for hours,... more

We had the opportunity to ride both these Jet Boats and the other ones while in the Dells last spring. These were a lot of fun, got somewhat wet, but not soaking. That would be good for some people who didn't want a ton of wet. We didn't have many people on our ride, The driver was good, but nothing... more

We had Captain Ron himself for our trip. As he loaded the boat he asked how wet we wanted to get, and he said the first couple of rows were getting wet no matter what. The dock and ticket booth are out along county Rd N, just a few miles out of town. There is an upper parking area, near... more

Well, I think this was the jet boat tour I went on, although it seems a little different then the review that was on here already. We did not get offered ponchos and our guide didn't give us any hints about where the best place to sit would be, but I think that was part of the fun. I don't... more
