This was absolutely the highlight of our trip the the dells! THe tour was about an hour, but felt like it just flew by it was so fun. Our guide, Captain Darrin, was very down to earth and friendly, but had a great sense of humor. And he got us soaked! We will definitely be making the trip back to... More

Fun and beautiful scenery. Tourguide was fun. Sit in the 2nd and 3rd row if you want to get wet. Most just get a light spray.

This is an awesome jet boat ride. It was a chilly but sunny morning and the tour guide knew exactly how to stop that boat giving a lot or little of spray. If we had taken it in the afternoon, it definately would have been even more enjoyable. We learned the history of the river and the surrounding scenery. We... More

At the beginning of the tour the guide asked the front row ( our teenage children) on a scale from 1-10 how wet do you want to get? They of course said a "10". By the end of the ride I had a spot of 2 in x 2 in at the back of my calf of one pant leg... More

On the Wild Thing website, it says you can get a discount if you order by phone, make a reservation and use a credit card, which I did. After I got off the phone, I realized the discount had not been applied. I figured I would correct it the next day when we showed up. WRONG!!!!! When we showed up... More

Our family of five, ages 7-39+, LOVED THIS TOUR!! It was a little cool the day we went, two of us bought Pouncho's from the gift shop B4 getting on the bus to the boat. We had an awesome time- and really if you don't want to get wet..buy a poncho and go anyway! This is by far the most... More

We had Capt Kurt and he did a great job of getting us wet and doing crazy turns and he had great music on top of it all! It was the best part of the whole trip for me!

This ride was fantastic. I was with a group of about 25 people, and they accommodated us perfectly, making sure we all got on the same boat. We had Kenny as our captain, and he was hysterical! It was fun, informational and as someone who doesn't really like history so much, SUCH A GREAT TIME! Kenny deserves a raise, cause... More

Overall, the ride itself was fun and you see more of the beautiful Wisconsin River scenery than the other jet boat tours. However, we barely had a drop of water hit us, which is NOT what we wanted. We wanted to get wet! We were in about the 6th row. If you prefer to stay dry, stay in the back!... More
