    Wish we could give more than 5 stars! This experience far surpassed my 6-year-old grandson's…read moreexpectations. We got to see a two-headed snake, so many gators, and the biggest snakes we've ever seen. The absolute highlight was when my grandson and his Dad got to hold a gator--he hasn't stopped telling everyone about it since! Definitely a must-see highlight of the Dells.

    My son has become Mr Alligstor almost overnight (well it started maybe around May of this year and…read moreapart from his normal video gaming, Alligators -- and to a lesser extent Crocs and Caimans) are his jam. He had been watching science-related videos, reading books, talking alligators and crocs nonstop. We were planning a mini father son trip and I wasn't sure where to go, when to my surprise I saw that Wis Dells had an alligator place! So we actually headed up there from NW Chicagoland for Alligators first...and boy this did not disappoint. The place was surprisingly very clean and not smelly at all--I had a college roommate who bought an old Used car that had a garter snake in it and he kept it and boy did it smell...so this is no small feat to keep it clean with this many reptiles. It was the first thing we did in Wis Dells and my son was there a good couple of hours (entrance was about $20 for us to visit and then you can buy food to feed -- meat packets were very reasonably priced), and also feed alligators, pythons, snapping turtles, alligator snapping turtles, caimans live mice and/or rats depending what the animals needed that day. Thankfully the owners -- lovely people who have been there nearly 30 years -- feed the live animals we don't have to touch them. I'll admit that left me a little squirmish but my son was in heaven. We were there about 2 hours (most folks I imagine last about 30 mins) and my son was really excited to see the animals -- behind closed glass tanks. They have 14 or so gators in the big tank right as you walk in, have an albino alligator (large one too) in a separate tank behind. Several pythons- including a jumbo yellow scary python and one a little smaller next to it. They have turtles, some smaller snakes, and some toads etc in other cages.... I figured we saw all we could ever see that first 2 hours as it isn't the biggest place, but my son really wanted to go back before we left, so we went back 2 days later and I don't know how we missed it on day 1, but they had a photo opportunity to hold an alligator (its mouth is taped for safety) and that was the thrill of my sons life! He's been telling everyone about that post our visit. Overall it was impressive how clean and not smelly the place is, showing the care the handlers/owners take to these animals. One bit of advice, while they have some very brief blurbs on some (not all) of the animals, I'd recommend adding more complete blurbs in the animals like a traditional zoo would. They also have an opportunity to buy alligators (which presumably is legal in Wisconsin) and that is something I'd never recommend -- Thankfully they aren't cheap so kids likely couldn't do that without a parent being involved:). All in all across 2 visits we were there 3.5 or so hours and my son had the absolute best time of his life. I can't thank them enough and they were super great to him answering his questions, etc (especially since on the second visit they were pretty darn crowded but they gave my so. Extra special treatment :) ). A wonderful experience-- and a reminder of the things we parents do for our kids lol - as Id never be there if it was t for my son, let alone be there twice! We will be back too next time we go to the Dells (I hadn't been to the Dells in over 20 years--first time as an adult, and I hadn't a great time, but this was amongst our biggest highlight of the trip)

    We arrived at Milwaukee airport and having pre-booked a Badger Bus ticket to Madison, we caught the…read morebus outside the baggage claim area and were dropped off in Madison at East Johnson / East Gorham at N. Pinkney, which was a 10 min walk to our hotel, not far from the State Capitol. The reason I gave 4 stars is that had our flight been delayed, we may have missed the bus (The bus was scheduled for about an hour and 10 minutes after we landed) and being that tickets are non-refundable and that the next bus wouldn't have gotten us to our destination until 10pm-ish, we would have been in a pickle. We were sweating it a bit, but grateful that everything worked out. They should be a bit more flexible knowing that flights are prone to delays and cancellations. To find the bus stop at MKE airport... Walk out of the baggage claim door #2, and turn left. You will see a crosswalk. Proceed to the next island and you'll see the Badger Bus stop. (See my photo attached). Other bus companies also pull up here. Our Badger Bus was bright red and clearly marked, but I read that they can be black unmarked buses. Our bus was running a few minutes late due to traffic, however a bus driver on a different Badger Bus who was dropping off told us it was on its way. That put us at ease. Our driver was really great. We sat up front and the bus wasn't very busy, so after we told him we were visiting from out of state, he kindly gave us a bit of a narration and offered ideas of places to visit. After picking up a few other passengers in Milwaukee, including at the train station, we were on our way to Madison. It was a smooth, comfortable, air conditioned ride. We tipped the driver for handling our luggage and for the narration. Helfpul?

    The bus rides between Madison and Milwaukee are ridiculously expensive. The wifi is spotty and…read moreoftentimes the outlets don't work. I'm writing this review of my recent ride. I booked the Johnson/Washington stop for my return trip home. The clueless driver didn't even stop there even though that is where my ticket was booked to. She drove straight through from Johnson Creek to Lake St. Her incompetence cost me an hour and 25 minutes. My commute home from Johnson would have been 25 minutes, but it took me an hour and 25 minutes to get home from downtown. When I noticed the time, it was past when I should have been dropped. We were already traveling down E Wash and I was in the last seat by the bathroom, so there was nothing I could do at that point. Commuters beware if you use this stop! I sent an email to Badger Bus regarding this and how/why it happened with no response.
