We had a great time on this boat, the tour guide's were wonderful. We liked the 2 stops it made to go explore. It was very relaxing and enjoyable. I would do this again or maybe try the night tour.

This is a great way to see the original draw of the Wisconsin Dells- the geology and the river. The tour guides are fun and informative. There are also many options around town to get a discount, which can make the experience a little more affordable. The Upper Dells tour offers opportunities to get out and see some of the... More

I do the upper dells boat tour every time I am in the Dells. Every time is better than the last even though I know what's coming. This tour shows why the Wisconsin Dells is even on the map and what started everything over 100 years years ago. You owe it to yourself to see this scenic piece of Wisconsin.

I used to do the Duck Tours when I went to the Dells. Not any more. The Upper Dells boat cruise is the best way to see the scenic beauty of the area. The narration is great and the stops are fantastic as you walk down a path of natural beauty and experience the "true Dells". Highly recommended for all... More

This is a boat trip up the Wisconsin River to explore the peaceful, natural beauty of the Wisconsin river and upper Dells. Its a two hour narrated tour that features two scenic shore landings where you can take short hikes (1/4 to 1/2 mile) through Witches Gulch, and where you can see the famous Stand Rock dog jump. You'll be... More

Best scenic boat trip by far! Witch's Gulch was so cool and the dog leap was very neat to see. Wisconsin is a beautiful state and this is a great way to see some of it's more beautiful spots.

Take a boat ride on the upper dells. See all the rock formations and watch for eagles. There are two spot to get off and walk if you like. Fun for all ages. There is a bathroom at the first stop that is always open and the second stop open most of the time. If you have trouble walking ask... More

This was a nice and relaxing tour of the Upper Dells. I enjoyed it because you were taken on a boat ride and then you dock twice for a walk to admire the beauty of the natural rocks that the Dells are known for. I would imagine if you love taking pictures, this is perfect. I would imagine the tour... More

We decided to take this tour because we had taken the "Duck Tour" years ago with our daughter. This was a wonderful and scenic trip that we actually got to get off in 2 different spots to explore with the guide. The one stop was at Witches Gulch. We were amazed at the rock formations. It reminded me of walking... More

We just took the first sunset cruise of the year and despite a few glitches had a really nice evening. The boat evidently had mechanical problems and left about 40 minutes late - which I'm sure screwed timing up all the way around. Once we got underway, the service was impeccable and the scenery was awesome... the walk back through... More
