We had an online coupon for this, so we went. It's a lot of fun! Sitting closer to the sides seems to get you wetter. And you get really wet, anyway! Wear a swimsuit, and have a towel in the car. But this is one of the best things in the dells!

We have driven by the Wisc. Dells countless times and never have gone into the actual Wisconsin River into the Dells until this last weekend.

Saw the Dells, got soaked, learned a little history. Our Captain did a great job of making sure we got wet, did many 360 degree turns, and also pointed out many of the great scenic spots along the Dells. Wonderful little excursion in The Dells.

We had a great time. We did the 10am family boat trip which allowed us to get our youngest son a ticket for free. There was only 1 other family on the boat with us and our Captian was great! He did a great tour and gave us the ride of our life! Be prepared to get WET! We used... More

You will get wet but isn't that the idea? I was so wet the money in my wallet was wet. My eight year old couldn't stop laughing. Beautiful scenery and good stories. Captain Craig was very entertaining.

The boat ride was awesome and the entire family had a great time. We were totally drenched by the end of the ride so don't expect to stay dry during this boat ride. Only negative comment was the boat captain asking for gratuities at the end of the ride.
