| me and my wife were celebrating 4 yrs married. it was a beautiful night, we really enjoyed everything. The crew was friendly and not too intrusive, the captains narrative was enjoyable, humorous, and informative. We will definitely do it again. Make sure you bring cash to tip the staff, i only had credit cards on me at the time. |

| We enjoyed the cruise. The narration was informative and humorous. Wait staff were attentive but not intrusive. Food was good and chef was very accommodating to my guest who is gluten intolerant. Baked potato was excellent, ribeye steak had very good flavor and chicken was moist and flavorful as well.
Some suggestions for improvement: We would have enjoyed an organic or natural food option (such as field greens without preservatives). Also, the diesel fumes were a bit much at times as the wind shifted. The music was schmaltzy. More Enja-type soft enviro sounds and less pop would be good. |

| The dinner and cruise on the Dolly was a great experience. The crew was friendly and efficient. The views were spectacular and the colors beautiful. The captain gave a talk about the lake, canyon,and plants which we enjoyed. We loved the evening cruise because it also gave views of the stars and moon. The moon reflecting in the currents of the water was beautiful and gave a very relaxing atmosphere. Music was played during the dinner and cruise which also added to the wonderful experience. The dinner was very good. We will be taking more dinner cruises with friends and family! |

| We did the twilight cruise on October 18.
We enjoyed it, but dinner was late & we were the last to be served at almost 7 p.m.
Your captain was fun with his commentary, and the weather was beautiful. |

Think the day cruise/trip would be better.

| We only had a very short amount of time to enjoy the beautiful views of the lake before we ran out of daylight. We were one of the last tables to be dismissed from our table to get our dinner, they were out of all three salad dressings and also very low on corn so we were given very little. The attitude of the staff serving the dinner was very rude. When we complained to one of the crew members we were informed that the people that provide the meal are seperate from those that run the boat. The crew of the boat were very friendly and helpful and apologetic of those who were catering, but for the amount of money we paid to be treated that way by the catering staff and for them to run out of food/condiments is unaceptable. This is the reason why I would recommend the day trip, save you money and enjoy a meal at a restaurant on your way back to AJ. The staff of the Dolly took our name and number and said the captain would have the owners of the boat call us to get info about our poor comments on the catering staff....we were never contacted. Never the less the scenery is very beautiful, and we did meet a lovely mother and daughter form the Northeast. |

| The Captain was delightful. The music soft and pleasant.
Without too much liquor flowing, the participants were quiet and dignified.
The cruise among the stars and towers mountains was mystical. I felt like we were floating to the ends of the earth.
I felt closer to my departed Mother than I have in two years. I loved it.
The food was excellent.
Would go again without hesitation. |

| Drifting along Canyon Lake was a wonderful, peaceful experience. It got dark way too soon, but enjoyed the scenery while it lasted. Then the stars came out the sky was lit with thousands of lights! The food was excellent - much better than expected. Tablecloths, linens and candle on the table, very nice experience.
My only critique is that this cruise is publicized as a "Mark Twain" experience, so we were expecting some neat stories about the area and were dissapointed that no stories were told. |
