We were blown away at how friendly and considerate the team was here! We were running late and they held the ride for us. What a trip around the Dells it was and Treighton gave us an entertaining narration of what we were sightseeing!! read more

Our guide, Aaron was excellent. The novelty of the amphibious car was good. The scenery and the tourism was nice. My kid even enjoyed being at the controls to drive in the water. There isn't much legroom if you are tall. If you want to get wet, this is less likely what you need to be doing but it is chill and fun. read more

Lots of fun! Definitely recommend checking it out. Maverick was our guide and he was phenomenal! read more

Great staff fun time overall informative information and enjoyed the tour my whole family was very glad we decided to go on the tour

It was a fun experience sight seeing and learning about the history of the area as well as the duck vehicles. Treyton was a great guide and really funny and informative. read more

This is my first time in a long time on one of these historic vehicles. They have an ample parking lot, which is free, for you to park and when you first arrive, you either buy your tickets or pick up your tickets that you purchased on-line at the ticket booth. They have a little tiki bar with bar seating and tables and chairs that is located right outside of the souvenir shop and zipline equipment shed that offers tropical frozen drinks and kid's slushies in souvenir cups. You can hang out there before or after your tour. I hung out there before I got in the line for the duck. This is their most flexible ride when it comes to scheduling. They had one leaving at least every 30 minutes when I was there. The ride is on a WWII ear amphibious duck vessel. The tour lasts about 30 minutes or so. Our tour guide, Audra, was very informative, friendly and had an awesome sense of humor. You could tell that this was not her first rodeo. You get a little bit of a history lesson during the tour and go from land to water, to land, to water, and end up on land thankfully. To be more specific they take you across one of the rivers on their property on a road, into a larger river, past a beach, under a bridge, and back on land where you then return to base. The seats are a bit cramped, worse than an old school bus. Even though you are in and out of the water, you should not get wet. I must admit that even with the awesome entertainment and wit provided by Audra, it was not a very exciting excursion and I found it kind of boring near the end. When you get off of your duck, they will offer to sell you some photos that they took of you against a green screen before you got in line to start your tour. There is no pressure to buy the pictures and you can just leave. I would suggest having some cash available to tip your guide if you so choose. The guide/driver also sells post cards and duck whistles at the end of the tour that kind of doubles as a tip, as well. All-in all, something neat, unique and different to do. This company is top notch and offers bundles with some of their other attractions including zip lining, jet boat, and ropes course. Even though I found it a bit sleepy, my little and I have another memory that will last us a life time. read more

I did the army Duck tour. My Tourguide was Haley. She was very knowledgeable and funny. The tour was fun, although I wish there was some more information in the beginning. But all around I enjoyed, thank you. Would recommend read more

We thoroughly enjoyed the duck boat experience with our driver Torpedo Troy. he was funny and very knowledgeable about the area. We his stories about the things he did in the past at the Wisconsin Dells. We also appreciated his shout out to those in the military. This was our first time doing a duck boat trip and it has inspired us to do more. read more

Great opportunity to tour the Dells, Lake Delton, and Wisconsin river in a unique vehicle. The abililty to take great landscape and nature photos is worth the price of the tour alone. The guide on my tour was very knowledgeable and hilarious -- as well as helpful with answering questions and helping with pictures. read more

If you are going on the Army Ducks, I sure hope you get Duff as your tour guide! This guy is hilarious! He sure made the trip fun for the adults and kids, too. I was not really looking forward to it, but his personality and choice of music made it. You will not get wet on this tour. Make sure to purchase the duck whistle calls on the tour, they are not available in the gift shop. read more

Dells Army Ducks - $4 - and totally worth it! - Boat Charters Near Me - Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin

Was a super fun tour with Tygh! He had the best splash downs and jokes! Also gave us all the info and made it enjoyable. Plus beautiful scenery. Highly recommend. read more

The tour itself was alright. I wish they didn't make their guides to beg for tips though and just pay them appropriately. Be aware of their deceptive price practices at the refreshments tiki bar. There's no prices advertised on the menu. So, once you get the drinks for your party, you face a ridiculous bill and it's late to return them at this moment as they are already made and given to kids. Kids ICEEs ended up being $16 each, to a total of $48 for three that we got. My wife's drink alone was charged at $35. Mind blowing! Destroyed the whole experience with the actual trip. Would be great to fine this business for deceptive price practices by complaining to FTC. I hope they respond and act on this. They can charge whatever they want if advertised, but hiding their pricing and then force you to pay is illegal! read more

Enjoyed the tour, June 18, mainly because our guide Steve shared the Dells history with great enthusiasm and the best bad dad jokes to keep all entertained. Engaging, informative,, fun. If you're lucky you will get Steve. If you're not-lucky you will still have a good time. read more

We had a blast with Tygh as our driver. Mom and dad were entertained by the fun and historic facts and comic relief while our toddler LOVED the splash downs! Highly recommended while you're in the Dells and ask for Tygh. read more

We spent today at Dells Army Ducks. My, my better half and our 5, yes FIVE children. Ages barely not an adult to running out of single digits. First let me say I tried to purchase tickets for all four areas on my own for the same day, some at the same times. Take my advice: don't do that. Call them. I gave up after trying for too long and quickly found so should have just called them. They know what they are doing. Super helpful. Got it all right the first time! Once there, 5 out of 7 of us did the zip line and loved it. All smiles. Excitement and stories forever I'm sure. Elle & Zach kudos. My people loved their time with you. Give these two a raise as the people make or break a good time! Myself and one of our younger ones, did the duck boat. Twice. (Initially we signed him up for the Wild thing, but after further consideration, we switched without ANY haste to another duck boat ride as my youngest has some health/mobility/sensory quirks & he wasn't excited about all that need for speed). After this hassle free switch we again had a great time. Blake & Garin (sorry if I spelled that wrong. No one gets my name right either) we're both great! Blake was full of knowledge and dad jokes from start to finish. The music was a nice touch also. Garin also very knowledgeable, a great sense of humor and made my Lilly guy feel super special letting him sit up front and helping him with that sun setting glare. Sounded like both guys have been there a while & definitely represent Dells Ducks well. Give these guys a raise! Wild thing also amazing. There were so many giggles and wet hugs upon return it must have been good. Ropes, the kids said was fun and a lot of work. Definitely will and already have recommended you to others and will be back!! read more

It was a great tour until the very end. our tour guide stopped and we had to sit through a horrible begging session. Apparently the tour guides don't get paid (even though it was $40 per person!! And we had to buy the plastic duck noise makers for $5. A small pamphlet for $10 And our Photo for $35. WTF!!! So if you go prepare to pay $90 in total per person. A nasty rip off!!! Very disappointed with their business model. read more

It was a great tour with tour guide Hailey! She made awesome jokes, showed us the beautiful landforms, and explained the history behind them. We also went ziplining with some of the best tour guides (in my opinion) Derrick and Nick were the best duo and helped us with everything. Overall a great trip at the Dells. I will be going back the next time I travel to Wisconsin! read more

The jet boat tours were awesome!!!! Captain Tim is the man!! Very friendly staff. Fun and informative ride! Highly recommend!

This is our first time on the Ducks. We went on an interesting sight seeing tour of various rock formations on the lake. The amphibious vehicle was lots of fun to ride in! Seth was our driver. He had many stories to tell and quite a few "dad jokes"; He was very entertaining! Though he said he has been doing this a little over a month, he guided the tour like a seasoned veteran. read more

We went on the jet boat tour with Captin Martini. There were only 5 of us on the boat. We were asked on a scale of 1/10 how wet we wanted to get. We all went for 10! Let me tell you the ride was fast, exciting and wet!!! We were dreanched down to our socks and underwear!! Captin Martini was both funny and threw in historic facts! We highly recommend doing the jet boat. Its a very powerful boat and we didnt even reach its top limit! Only thing is do the tour on a HOT day because you will get WET!!! Asha read more

It was my significant other's first time in Wisconsin Dells and what better way to show him around then with the Army Ducks. Check Groupon for coupons! We received a really great deal for two! Customer Service was exceptional! We had a blast! We didn't get wet at all. The views were spectacular and our tour guide was kind and informative! Her name was Ally! She was great and if you enjoy corny jokes, we highly recommend her! It's super windy so it's best if you don't wear hats. In case you don't want to get cold or wet, bring a light windbreaker jacket. read more

We did the jet boat and the duck boat tours. Sterling was an absolute AMAZING jet boat driver! He was funny, he played great music and he absolutely drenched us!! I'm not sure why more people aren't encouraged to tip or that as an option when sending out your follow up email... We came to the Dells from Indiana as my Army NG solider/ full time fire-fighter/paramedic boyfriend and I just for a little mom/dad get away & it was just what we needed!! The "high school science teacher" was our duck boat guide. He had a lot of corny jokes. He's very "family friendly" I just wish I would have been warned that we were going to get our feet drenched sitting in the back. On the jet boats they give you a container to keep your shoes/keys/wallet, etc...in so they don't get soaked. We were told about 3 seconds before we were soaked. We had wet shoes for our rest of the time in the Dells. That part sucked so if you're sitting in the back of the duck boat, be prepared... Also, you can't book a 2pm jet boat and a 3pm duck boat. You won't make it back in time. No one told us that upon checking in either. Still leaving 5 starts though...Sterling was bad ass!! read more

Dells Army Ducks provided us with an informative, entertaining tour of beautiful Lake Delton; which has been refilled and restored! For those not familiar, Ducks are amphibious military vehicles, designed to traverse both sea and land. They have wheels and a boat motor and were integral to the invasion at Normandy during WWII. What I did not know was that "Ducks" is actually based on an acronym for "DUKW", the naming terminology used by General Motors. The D indicates a vehicle designed in 1942, the U meant "utility (amphibious)", the K indicated all-wheel drive and the W indicated two powered rear axles. I took my first Duck ride back when I was just a boy and the splashdown into Lake Delton was thrilling back then. The splashdown was still kind of fun, but the Ducks don't get much past 35 m.p.h. on land anymore. What I enjoyed most were the beautiful views of rock formations in and around Lake Delton. There's lots of Native American lore and history to the area. Chicagoans used to take the train up to Wisconsin Dells to sit in row boats to admire the natural beauty, and it seemed fitting that the tradition continues today. Either of the Ducks companies are probably fine, but our young driver (a six year veteran) added to our History lesson with a hilarious dry wit and banter that kept us entertained. Highly recommended! read more

Great experaince and time provided by Tom! We would definitely recommend when in the Dells.

Had a great experience with Tsunami Seth - super fun commentary to go with the tour. We've been coming to the Dells for years, but never did a duck tour.

We enjoyed every minute of our Duck ride, Ashley was informative and fun, she's cute as a button!

My boyfriend is 6'3 and they had us sit together (me, child, and him) so we were pretty squished. But other then that it was a lot of fun!

Torpedo Troy gave a very informative fun filled tour of the lower dells. Definitely recommend the tour !
