The tour departs LeClaire, IA and heads north up the Mississippi River. LeClaire is a picturesque town off the banks of the Mississippi River and is host to restaurants, a distillery, brew pub, winery, Riverboat Twilight cruises and shops including Antique Archaeology - home of the American Pickers.
You will see wildlife including Eagles, Great Blue Heron, Pelicans, Beavers, Otters and Puddle Ducks to name a few. Hovercrafts operate in channels and backwaters that other boats are unable to navigate because of water depth and debris, so you will get a unique look at wildlife and the unseen.
The return trip is down the Illinois side of the river where you will see more backwaters and wildlife. The captain will make one or more stops along the way so you can take in the sights, take pictures, and stretch your legs.
