My wife and I took a little romantic getaway this past summer to a place I have visited a million times but where she has never been. This was a wonderful introduction to Central WI for my wife. The tour not only showed her the scenic beauty of the area, but also gave her a unique insight into area history.... more

The Dells Boat Tours are amazing. The scenery is great. Make sure you have your camera for the standard tours, but do not bring it on the Jet Boat tour or it will get wet! You will not want to do the Jet Boat tour to start your day as you will be soaked when it is over. It is... more

We went on this boat tour at 11:00am over labor day weekend. This was a wonderful way to see the river for 2 hours. The guides gave some local stories and legends information and there were 2 dockings for short walks. There was cool weather and beautiful scenery to see. The price was $23.00 per adult person but you were... more

We did the Upper Dells Tour on 8/17/09. It was FANTASTIC. Everyone in our family loved it, including our two-year-old daughter. She said it was her favorite part of the trip. The Upper Dells Tour is a two-hour trip that takes you to two shore landings. The scenery is beautiful, both on the boat and on shore. The first shore... more

We enjoyed the tour, although it took us over 2 hours to complete. We had to sit underneath as the top was filled by a tour group and we found that it was actually quite pleasant with a bit of water splashing in. The walking parts of the tour are fun. We were able to walk them quite quickly only... more

We found this to be a very informative and enjoyable trip. I would advise to sit on the upper deck and not down below. more

Yes, the Dells are worth seeing on a boat and it makes a very refreshing trip especially on a warm day. But.. you pay for a 2 hour trip of the upper dells. only 1 hour of it is spent on the boat. Within 1/2 hr you get off the boat to take a 5 minute walk through a pretty... more

This was one of a few different boat tours offered in the Dells area. I would recommend it to adults due to the type of tour it is. If you want to keep the kids entertained, spend the extra bit of cash to go on one of the faster, quicker, and nuttier speed boat tours offered by the same outfit,... more

The word Dells actually refers to the sandstone cliffs in the area which are mostly only visible on the Upper and Lower Dells of the Wisconsin River. People have been touring the river by boat for more than a century for good reasons. The scenery here is breathtaking!Make sure you take a tour boat so you can stop at witches... more

We went on the tour off season, so our tour was only about an hour and 15 minutes. We didn't get to make any stops because there was still some ice on the trail. We had a nice time. The Dells are beautiful and quite an interesting natural phenomenon. The tour guide and captain were personable and enjoyable to listen... more
