Spouse & Guest Tour:
September 22, 2025
9:30 a.m.
On the Upper Dells Boat Tour (two-hour slow-moving boat tour), we will journey northward, cruising through an awesome path cut by ancient glaciers, passing under pine-coned cliffs, and navigating through the winding river to view iconic sandstone formations like Chimney Rock, Blackhawk’s Profile and Romance Cliff. Our adventure begins with the on-shore landing at Witches Gulch, which is a spectacular and spooky walk through a narrow canyon carved by wind and water, and filled with fern glens, shadowy passages, and hidden whirlpool chambers. After the boat tour we will enjoy lunch in The Crystal Room at Buffalo Phil’s Grille.
Get ready for a fun-filled day! The bus will return the guests around 2:00 p.m.
