| First, let me say that Captain Tom and crew were great. The cruise itself was nice and peaceful and would have been enjoyable if not for fellow passengers.
This group had a toddler with them that cried the whole entire cruise. Not only was this group late for the cruise by 10 minutes causing a late start, but they were seated upstairs. Evidently they liked the downstairs better, because the spent the whole trip downstairs on the veranda with their crying and disruptive kid right outside the door to the downstair seating area. Since we were the first table inside the door, we were disrupted and irritated the whole cruise.
I have nothing against children being included in events if they are not disruptive and spoil the whole evening for everyone else. We had all paid for the cruise and the experience was ruined.
I believe the crew on board should have at least made them go back to their seats so as to not disrupt the whole bottom level.
I would recommend the cruise to others in the future, but maybe kids should be passengers on the day cruises instead of the evening cruise. I'm just glad I was there with girlfriends and not a date because it took all of the romance out of the evening. |

| I enjoyed the Dolly Steamboat Cruise. The food was tasty, the views spectacular and the staff was wonderful. I was there for the astrology cruise and found Dr. Sky to be friendly and knowledgeable. Overall, it was a very enjoyable experience and I would go again.
One thought of caution: not everyone on that cruise was interested in the astrology. I found it hard to hear Dr. Sky as several intoxicated people were allowed to be loud and somewhat unruly. You should keep in mind that alcohol is allowed and passengers are allowed to roam both decks which unfortunately for a few of us interupted our meals. |

| We did the twilight dinner cruise. I highly recomend it. Everything was wonderful. There was a group of 8 of us. There is no smoking allowed anywhere on the Dolly so a few people got a little antsy about the last 1/2 hour. I'm not a smoker, so I found it to be very relaxing. |

| Would like to salute Captain Tom, Nicole and the other assiatant (Upper Level)
as well as the cooking staff for a wonderful evening cruise on the lake.
The serenity and views were very relaxing and even more so with dinner.
Our group of ten was seated in front of the boat taking in all the views and narrations by Captain Tom.
I personally want to thank Nicole for the seating arrangement with my group as I feel she had gone the extra mile for me to impress my friends. In fact, I heard from my friends afterwards that they intend on bringing their family members when they visit onto the Dolly Cruise.
One couple said, we have cruised the Dolly before, but never on a dinner cruise and this trip was fantastic with our friends being together. Just want to mention that while cruising, conversation among our group was at almost a standstill as we listen to the narration and enjoyed the beautiful views. The time went too fast for us. |

| I planned this trip a couple months in advance for my husband's birthday; however, he was so sick that day and the trip wasn't as fun as anticipated. If I would have had a healthy partner I am sure I would have enjoyed myself more. The buffet dinner was really good, service was friendly, and the view was amazing, and the bathrooms were clean. We sat on the top deck with no covering - which was hard at the beginning of the cruise with the sun, but within 20 minutes we were facing the other way and had the open air and stars to gaze at. I would highly recommend this cruise as something "different" to do. |
