Duck Commander — Attraction in West Monroe

Really enjoyed this experience. My boyfriend and I watch this show regularly and it's always a great laugh after a long day. We finally got the opportunity to go to Duck Commander and see it in person. We were hopeful to see the group, but didn't get the chance. Duck Commander has been turned into a store (shirts, hats, cookbooks, duck calls, videos, cups, etc.) and you can also take the tour ($20 for adults, kids are cheaper). The tour is self-guided. You watch a video first, then proceed through various rooms of different information. It shows Phil and Kay as kids and their lives growing up (high school years, Phil in football, etc.). There's a section for Si and his military experience, Sadie's activities (camps, outreach, Dancing with the Stars), memorabilia from Duck Dynasty (trophies, carvings, the basketball goal, etc. from the eipsodes), the family tree, Willie's office, the workroom (where you get to put together a plastic duck call and try it out; there's an instruction video), etc. We spent about 1- 1.5 hours walking through the warehouse tour. After the tour we were given a mystery goodie bag, which had a hat, dvd, and cup.

If there's anything that could be improved upon it would be possibly adding a blueprint of what the warehouse looked like before turned into the attraction that it is today. It was really hard to picture it as you walk through the tour. Coming based on the interest of the t.v. show we were wanting the experience as authentic as could be- I mean you are in the warehouse, but we wanted to see the warehouse as we saw it on t.v.

Afterwards we went to Miss Kay's restaurant located downtown. It was good. Highly recommend the steak and mac &...

We are currently moving across country and decided to stop in since we love the show. After reading reviews, we thought it would be fun to see the shop, learn some facts about the family and how the business grew, but also for our 4 year old to make a duck call. Unfortunately, since they opened the new "Experience" tour on Monday, they do not have patrons make duck calls or receive items as mentioned in previous reviews any longer (we were told it was just a filler to hold visitors over while the new tour was under construction). We thought it would be pretty interactive and something neat for our daughter to experience. In reality, it is watching a bunch of video clips and walking through areas that aren't even finished yet but you still pay the normal admission price of around $20 a person. Though you learn a little bit more background on the family and business than what is shown on the show, it is NOT interactive or worth $20 each!! Would have definitely preferred the "filler" tour! Especially since the new tour isn't even completed!....I guess we can at least say that this experience is off our list for good..... However, we WOULD recommend Willie's Duck Diner. Good food, reasonable prices and very hospitable staff members. Heather was great! But this was the best part of the stop... Very...

A nice place just to go see if you're a fan of the show like I am. It looks much more rundown and cheap in person- that was actually very surprising. The show makes it look much nicer and less touristy. The area it's in is also surprisingly run down looking. Doesn't look like a very nice or well kept neighborhood overall. The place had too few t shirt sizes (No 3xls anywhere from what I could see, so that was a sad point for me). A lot of the souvenir stuff was overpriced, and it kind of feels like they are only taking advantage of the show's popularity- like it's a side thing to do if you happen to be in the area, not that it's kept up well enough (the entrance to the building alone says a lot- it looks like a rusted metal roof and a door that was half broken, had to push hard to get it open).

They have a tour of the backroom where you can see where they make the duck calls (think it said you can make your own), get a duck call you make, a bobblehead, and one or two more items...it was pretty expensive however. Think it was $20 per person. that seemed too high.

Okay if you love the show...we went in, walked around, decided the tour was too much and left. Took a couple of pics outside then left. Probably for massive fans of the show only and mostly only to say...
