DELLS BOAT TOURS - All You Need to Know BEFORE You Go (with Photos)

The Most Scenic Dells Boat Tour

There are numerous different options for touring Lake Delton by boat. I have also tried the jet boat and iconic Wisconsin Ducks and have had a good experience on both. What makes the Upper Dells Boat Tour unique is the two drop off excursions to explore the rock features on land. The tour is the only way I know to view these beautiful stop offs and are completely worth a trip. That’s why I think the Upper Dells Boat Tour is the most scenic Dells boat tour.

The boat tour itself cruises at a nice leisurely pace. It has open air seats on the top deck and open windows for viewing on the bottom deck. It’s appropriate for all ages and quite relaxing. The tour guides point out rock formations of note and provide local history. They also try and sell you some photo books but for some reason that is a part of all the boat tours in the area, don’t feel pressured to buy but I do recommend giving the generally young people in their summer jobs a bit of a tip.

The first landing of the Upper Dells Boat tour is at Witches Gultch. It is a bewitching cavern of rocks and water below which you explore from the wooden boardwalk. It’s not a long path but it is very beautiful. At the end is a small snack shack if you need a quick bite.

The final stop on the tour is to standing rock. These rocks are visually unique and inspired their use in some of the first photography taken of moving subjects. They even give you a unique though brief experience of seeing their adorable trained german shepherd make the iconic leap across it. You can check it out in my video here or wait and see it on the tour for yourself.

We experienced so many stunning views on the Upper Dells Boat Tour and had a relaxing boat tour to boot. We’re not affiliated in any way with the boat tour, just had a good time. If you want to book your tour you can follow the link here .

How long is the tour?

My family went on the Upper Dells tour and it lasted approximately two hours.

Are there bathrooms on the upper dells boat tour?

There are no bathrooms on the boats but there is bathrooms at the end of the witches gulch path. There is probably bathrooms at the second stop also. The concessions area was closed at the time we were there, the end of April.

Definitely a must do when visiting Wisconsin Dells. I don't know how many times I've been to Wis Dells, I even did an internship here for 3 months after college but this was my first time doing the boat tour! Upper Dells is more scenic and probably the most popular option. Seats are first come first serve, if you want to sit up top make sure and get there early. You get to learn a lot about what makes this area so special and see some of the natural attractions, (Witches Gulch and Standing Rock) that you probably wouldn't see other words. It's 2 hours well spent and a nice break from activities, water parks, go carts and mini golf.

Eh, we all wished we had just done a daytime tour. It wasn't exactly scary as much as super annoying. If your idea of being scared is a lot of loud noises and eardrum-breaking screams and costumed people following you and talking to you, then you may like this. We all would have preferred a bit more creep factor and less gratuitous loudness. I understood why they tell you not to punch the actors before the tour. (Side note: if you are reading these reviews trying to decide if you should bring your young kids, just don't unless you know for absolute certain they won't be scared. There were so many littles who were terrified, miserable, and probably traumatized because their parents brought them on the tour despite the warnings.)

We did the upper Dell's tour where you visit the Witches Gulch and Standing Rock. Line was not long. We didn't have a large group so seating on top was fine. Make sure you have a warm jacket for late fall/early winter. Tour guide was very informative. At the end of Witches Gulch, you can get a snack or drink at the concession stand.

Great tour. Very scenic. Great crew. Emma and I forget the captains name. Professional service with some cheesy dad joke humor. Snacks available at 2 locations on the trip, including bathrooms at both shore landings.

Went to WI just to say I was there! What I found out was I love WI and this was definitely one of the highlights of our trip! The scenery was beautiful and the boat ride relaxing at times. Loved the music provided by a solo artist playing some oldies from my childhood. We stopped and walked through "Witches Gulch" which was really, really cool. Lots of pictures taken there and through the dells. After walking through the gulch we got our dinner. Everything was delicious! Afterwards we lingered on the water watching the sunset and got back in time to still see our way off the boat and back to our car. At first I thought our trip was going to be ruined because there was a work party of a dozen people seated next to us and they were drinking like crazy and getting loud. But after a little bit they included us in on there fun and basically adopted the two of us into their group. As a non-drinker I was a bit skeptical, but they turned out to be soooo much fun!! We were laughing with (and at) them! Would definitely recommend this if you are in the area. We had a blast!!

We did the Ghost Boat tour at 7p in July and it was fantastic. It boat ride started in daylight, we arrived at twilight and the second half was in the dark. Many reviews are saying it was lame and not scary, but that is all in perspective. It depends on how scared you get. I had a group of 12 people, including 4 juveniles ages 9-15. Only 1/2 of our group made it all the way through to the end. The 12 y.o. dropped out as soon as she saw the first ghost and the 9 y.o. dropped out when he was chased and scared by a ghost. All the of the adults who made it through were scared at least once. They have boats arriving and departing all through the evening, so you can take your time and return on any boat. There is a 15 min boat ride through the dells before arriving at the Lost Canyon. There is a long slightly uphill and uneven walking path to get to the restrooms and waiting building before the ghosts appear. You will walk to the end of the canyon and return on a different path to the beginning. It is not recommended for children under age 10, but there were two young boys on my tour who made it to the end. FYI: the ghosts do a lot of screaming and stalking. There is one very narrow canyon walk, some flashing lights, and one completely dark tunnel.

So fun. Jenna and Renita were great. Really knew the area well. Jenna's jokes were the best just kidding. I love me some dry, terrible jokes. I've done this tour many times and this time was really fun. Jenna was great and really made the trip. Gorgeous views, of course.

upper deck boat tour wisconsin dells

Okay experience -- solely took the tour to see Witches Gulch since you can't access it via trail anymore. We weren't told that we should head down right away to get a place in line (had about 45 min until tour left). We got down there and were informed to sit in the last row. They then started letting people on by row 1, 2, etc. We watched some people walk right into the row 1 line though without waiting and they weren't turned back. Found out at that point that they ran out of top deck seating. We tried sitting together (2 of us) and were promptly yelled at by a passenger that they were saving seats. We ended up sitting in the back at the bottom of the boat. Thankfully, we didn't get motion sickness. However, you can't swap seats at any point. Also would've been good to know beforehand. We would've liked mixing up the view. Okay for what it is but kind of pricey and a bit of a headache. The tour guides and sights were great. Little silly that they have concessions but happy if that helps keep restoration going.

Fun place to do , highly recommend, beautiful river and rocks and trees are incredible, very relaxing

upper deck boat tour wisconsin dells

All in all this is a great experience for couples or families with children. I personally love all the corny jokes and the scenery is great. Witches Gulch is the best part. Merry and Aiden did a great job. The gentleman taking tickets should mayve learn some manners when people ask to wait for outdoor seats. And the picture people are too pushy. Sell the photos for a bit less, you may sell a lot more!!

What to Do When You Visit Wisconsin Dells

L ocated less than 2 hours from Milwaukee and an hour from Madison, Wisconsin Dells is a popular Midwest destination for families year-round as “The Waterpark Capital of the World!”

The beauty of The Dells has been drawing generations of tourists to the area for years, and now I understand why.

I’m sharing more about the top things to do when you visit Wisconsin Dells.

Our visit was sponsored by Travel Mindset and Wisconsin Dells Visitor & Convention Bureau . All opinions are my own. 

My mother-in-law, niece, and my youngest son joined me for a weekend adventure in The Dells. We experienced non-stop fun during our first visit to places that you will want to add to your list.

Spend the Day at Noah’s Ark Waterpark

1410 Wisconsin Dells Pkwy, Wisconsin Dells, WI

When you visit “The Waterpark Capital of the World!®” a great place to start is at the Largest Waterpark in America, Noah’s Ark Waterpark.

What I loved about this waterpark was that even though it’s HUGE (70 acres) the park doesn’t feel huge in a bad way.

You can find several different types of rides and thrill levels located close to each other so that you don’t have to walk very far between rides.

Our favorite rides of the day were the Black Anaconda water coaster, the longest in America at 1/4 mile long, and the Sting Ray slide that drops you down a super steep incline in a double or single inner tube.

My mother-in-law LOVED the water coaster and was so glad that we talked her into going on it.

We also enjoyed relaxing at the wave pool and the lazy river in between thrill rides. There are lots of options for families of all ages, with 51 slides and attractions.

A few food favorites at the park are Pink’s Hot Dogs and the Dole Whip Oasis Stand. A Dole Whip is the perfect treat after a long day in the sun.

A few tips before you go to Noah’s Ark Waterpark:

Save on admission to Noah’s Ark Waterpark by purchasing your tickets online.

It’s also worth paying the extra $ to upgrade your parking for closer access to the park.

Enjoy the Scenic Upper Dells Tour with Dells Boat Tours®

107 Broadway, Wisconsin Dells, WI

A two-hour tour of the Wisconsin River is a great way to introduce you to the amazing rock formations and cliffs in The Dells.

I loved that the Upper Dells tour also gave us two different opportunities to get off the boat to briefly explore and grab a snack at the concession stand.

Our first stop was Witches Gulch, which was such an unexpected surprise.

The mossy narrow formations felt like something out of a movie.

The trail path ends at a concession stand and bathhouse if you need to take a break. We had about 20-25 minutes during that stop.

Our next stop was Stand Rock, which had a little more of an incline that might be more challenging if you are in a wheelchair. 

We learned about the site where famous photographer, Henry Hamilton Bennett took a photograph of his son jumping across to Stand Rock.

This is also the location where we watched a trained German Shepherd jump to and from the face of Stand Rock.

He only does it once so have your cameras ready to capture a photo or video, and there is a safety net in place just in case.

A few tips before you go Scenic Upper Dells Tour with Dells Boat Tours:

Bring a sweatshirt or jacket because it can get cooler out on the water. When we started our tour, it was really hot and sunny, but it became windier later on our tour.

Seating for the tours is first come, first serve. You will wait on the benches before your departure and will enter the boat in the order that you arrive.

We were glad that we got there early because we wanted to sit on the top deck.

You’ll have the opportunity to purchase a souvenir book during your tour that highlights the areas from the tour, along with vintage photos, so you will want to make sure that you have cash on hand.

Take a Land and Water Tour With the Original Wisconsin Ducks®

1890 Wisconsin Dells Pkwy

We didn’t have enough time to check out this tour, but the Original Wisconsin Ducks® tour is also very popular.

The one-hour tour takes you over sandbars and in the Wisconsin River and Lake Delton, and it’s the only tour in the world in continuous operation since 1946.

I’m definitely adding it to my list for my next visit.

Visit the Tommy Bartlett Exploratory

560 Wisconsin Dells Pkwy

If you visited Wisconsin Dells in the past there is a good chance that you attended the 90-minute Tommy Barlett water ski show that dates back to the 1950s.

The ski show is unfortunately permanently closed but you can still visit the Tommy Bartlett Exploratory.

The indoor attraction features more than 175 interactive activities and most guests visit for around 1.5 – 2 hours.

Face Your Fears on the BigFoot Zipline or Ropes Course

1550 Wisconsin Dells Pkwy, Wisconsin Dells, WI

If you like to challenge yourself, you’ll find hours of fun at the BigFoot Zipline and Ropes Course. During our visit, we were tight on time, so we opted to try the Ropes Course.

Each participant is harnessed in and is always connected to the course during their adventure.

My mother-in-law isn’t a huge fan of heights, but she did a great job working her way up the course.

Participants can choose their own adventure with over 80+ elements to try on multiple levels.

You progress to the next height level at your own pace, and you can even step off the course if you need a break before moving on.

If you reach the top level of the course and walk across the beam, you can climb inside the helicopter at the top.

There are free lockers available for guests to secure their valuables while they are up in the air and the staff is really helpful to make sure that you have a positive experience on the course.

See Animals at Timbavati Wildlife Park

2220 Wisconsin Dells Pkwy, Wisconsin Dells, WI

There are more than 400 animals representing over 70 species at Timbavati Wildlife Park.

A few of the many things to do during your visit include viewing the baby animals in the nursery, feeding the parakeets and giraffes, and taking a Safari Train Ride.

We had a short amount of time to visit Wildlife Park because we had a plane to catch. One of the most popular areas during our visit was the giraffe feeding area.

If you are a registered guest at Kalahari Resort, you can also get free admission to Timbavati Wildlife Park, which is another perk. Make sure that you get your tickets at the Kalahari front desk.

Great Places to Eat in Wisconsin Dells

Breakfast in the wisconsin dells, fill up at paul bunyan’s northwoods cook shanty.

411 State Hwy 13, Wisconsin Dells, WI

Taking family-style food to a whole other level, you definitely need to come with an appetite to Paul Bunyan’s Northwoods Cook Shanty.

You can get a picture with Paul Bunyan or Babe the Blue Ox on your way in to eat at this lodge-themed restaurant.

You pay for your meal before you are seated, which is a little different, but it does make it faster when you are ready to leave after your meal.

If you want your server’s tip added to your bill, make sure that you tell the cashier ahead of time.

Our breakfast started with buttermilk donuts, followed by biscuits and gravy, scrambled eggs, sausage links and ham, camp-fried potatoes, flapjacks, coffee, and juice.

We could have gotten refills on any of the breakfast items, but we were stuffed after the first round.

Kudos to those who keep those refills coming. The restaurant also serves different menu items for lunch and dinner if you visit at a later time.

Enjoy Breakfast Sweets at Mr. Pancake

1405 Wisconsin Dells Pkwy

This is a great breakfast spot in a building shaped like a giant paddle boat.

The specialty pancakes are really large and the omelets even come with pancakes, so you don’t have to choose between sweet or savory.

You will definitely not leave hungry. Mr. Pancake is located across the street from the Noah’s Ark Waterpark entrance which makes it a great place to fill up before your big day at the park.

*This is a very popular breakfast spot, so try to avoid the morning rush and get there extra early or later.

Lunch & Dinner in the Wisconsin Dells

A cheese lovers paradise at macs – macaroni and cheese shop.

208 Broadway, Wisconsin Dells, WI

Mac and cheese fans, this place is for you! Don’t let the pan sizes fool you, because the regular size is really filling.

MACS has an assortment of creative combinations to mix up your mac n’ cheese, and I can guarantee that it will be love at first bite.

A few of our favorites were the bacon, chicken, ranch, and jalapeno popper. My younger son is a mac and cheese purist, and he still loved his version too.

Stay and Play at The Grateful Shed Truckyard

1470 Wisconsin Dells Pkwy

The Grateful Shed Truckyard was one of my favorite discoveries during our visit.

It combined food trucks, great live music, creative seating, and decor including an elevated rehabbed Greyhound bus that you can dine in.

You can choose from food trucks with Asian food, street tacos, and grilled cheese variations. The hardest part is narrowing down your options.

There is a bar and plenty of seating areas inside or outside. The bus is definitely a unique seating option if you don’t mind heights.

There are a few smaller buses to dine in on the lower level too.

The outdoor area also has fire pits and cornhole.

You really need to take your time to look around at everything while you are there.

There are so many fun details located throughout the space.

Buffalo Phil’s Pizza & Grille

150 Gasser Rd

I’m a sucker for a gimmick, and Buffalo Phil’s Pizza & Grille has a dining experience that will put a smile on the faces of adults and kids alike.

You have the option to sit in an area where your food and drinks are delivered by a server …or you can sit in the area where they are delivered by train.

Seriously, why would you want to sit anywhere else?

Our sandwiches and burgers were really good and they were delivered to us quickly, which was good because we had a time crunch before leaving for the airport.

The expressions on the kids’ faces as the train passed by blowing bubbles or when it delivered their meals were priceless. I’ll admit, I was super excited when our food came by train, too.

Cook Your Meat at Hot Rocks

399 Co Rd A

Hot Rocks is a tiki-themed restaurant with fun drinks and menu items that you can watch cooking in front of you on a hot lava stone.

Your server will give you pointers for the best practices for when to flip or sear your meat depending on what you select.

We tried the Filet Mignon Medallions, Jumbo Tiger Shrimp, and the Porterhouse.

What’s great is that you are in charge of making sure that your meat is cooked to your preferences on the 750 degrees Fahrenheit lava stone in front of you.

Don’t forget to save room for the Hot Rocks Fudge Volcano for dessert. This is a great dessert for sharing, and the brownie is delicious.

Where We Stayed in Wisconsin Dells, WI

Kalahari resorts & conventions.

1305 Kalahari Dr, Wisconsin Dells, WI

For the best of both worlds, it’s nice to stay at a resort that doubles as an amazing indoor and outdoor waterpark.

We’ve previously stayed at the Kalahari Resort in Sandusky, OH and it was great to visit another one of their properties.

The outdoor waterpark allows you to soak up the sun, relax or try a few thrill rides.

We had a blast on their water coaster and group tube slides.

Kalahari is Wisconsin’s largest indoor waterpark and provides areas that will appeal to families of all ages.

The air temperature inside the indoor waterpark is warm, which makes for an awesome year-round adventure.

Adults will enjoy the 21+ up hot tub area and swim-up bar.

Lodging at Kalahari Resort

Kalahari Resort offers a range of room options for families depending on their size and amenity needs.

We stayed in the Sands section of the hotel with access to the waterparks via the skywalk so we never had to go outside in our swimsuits to visit the other section of the building.

We really enjoyed our visit to The Dells, and we’ve found many reasons to want to come back!
