We had a group of 10, including 6 adults and 4 children. Our driver (Joel) did a great job. He made this trip lots of fun for everyone, both kids and adults. He told the expected jokes, but was also knowledgeable about the area. It was very interesting to see and hear about the levee breach that took place a... More

We recently visited and enjoyed our Ducks ride. Our guide was funny and knowlegeable. I brought my 14 month old and she slept most of the way. The only thing that woke her is when we dove into the water really fast which the other kids loved. The whole experience was fun and we ended up getting the group photos... More

Don't know why we never did this before, but what a blast. I really like doing things with the kids that are kind of old school, and the ducks have been around for over 60 years. No electronics or videos, just a fun ride through the woods and on the river with some moldy oldy corny jokes, just my speed.... More

This is just one of those trips you have to do when in the Dells. The Duck actually picked us up at Glacier Canyon Lodge, right outside the lobby. We had some issues in that the concierge person was AWOL when we went in to buy our tickets, and the desk people told us we would have to go over... More

The ducks are always fun--who wouldn't admire a vehicle that could go on land and on water? I did have a few issues, though. 1-You are literally sucking on diesel fumes the entire time. Over the water was better because of the wind, but on land the fumes were TERRIBLE. The exhaust is apparently at the front of the vehicle... More

Just went to the Dells with my kids and had to ride the ducks. Last time was 40 years ago. It was just how I remembered and a blast! A great way to see the beautiful scenery and have a chance in a lifetime experience. My kids loved it!!

Never been on/in a Duck, will certainly do again. This is a fine touristy deal, lots of interesting things to see. Very nice and funny tour guide. Worth the price, worth the time.

We had a great time on the Original Ducks tour. Kids loved the land/water aspect and the tour guide had a good (scripted) sense of humor. A must for any first time visitor to the Wisconsin Dells.
