Original Wisconsin Dells Duck Tour

Have you been following our Midwest Road Trip? We did 7 states in 7 days. Wisconsin Dells was day 3! We discovered that the Dells is full of amusement parks, shows, attractions and waterparks!

Original Wisconsin Ducks is easy to find. They’re located right across from the Trojan Horse!

Your Duck tour begins with a brief safety overview and then you are off and ready for the adventure. Each tour lasts about an hour and takes you over land and then down the Wisconsin River and back over to Lake Delton.

The views overland are beautiful and the easy-going banter of the tour guide driver keep the trip moving along.

When it’s time to splashdown into the Wisconsin River, be ready for a little splash. But when you splashdown the second time in Lake Delton, the splash is even more fun!

The day we were there, we enjoyed the gorgeous blue skies and colors.

Original Wisconsin Ducks® is the ONLY duck tour in the world in continuous operation since 1946.

In 1946, the world’s first Duck tour was launched. While other Duck rides have come and gone, only ORIGINAL WISCONSIN DUCKS® has been delivering FUN and ADVENTURE on LAND and WATER, NON-STOP, ever since!

Things to Know

  • The tour lasts about an hour.
