| You need to understand that the boat is not enclosed. You will be exposed to whatever the weather is outside. It would have been fun to bring binoculars! The smallest table they had seated four. Hence if you're thinking of a romantic evening for just the two of you think again. It would be fun to go with a group of people you already know, or be prepared to make new friends.

| This was a great excursion, well worth the price. The food was very good & the service was efficient, courteous, and attentive. The trip itself wasn't rushed; the boat slowed and even paused for wildlife viewing and the Captain's narration was appropriate--not too much nor too little. Very relaxing, we'd do it again. |

| It was a good value and a wonderful photo op.
So nice to see different groups represented, from teens on a date, to a few families, to one 30 yr anniversary, and even some cultural diversity on our trip. Maybe the evening isn't really suitable for young children,a little long for their attention, many seemed to get cranky toward bedtime also as it was very warm they really did not like wearing wee one's required life vests.
But for the adults, it was a lovely evening, even with 100+ degrees, Captain Tom kept us all in the shade as much as possible until the sun went down. Lots of information. Even after 20 years here, I learned many new things. He was a little overly apologetic about all the water traffic...what should we expect on a lake in summer? One personal comment made right at the end was a little over the top for my companion. But the rest of the staff was very competent and all our needs were met without being intrusive.
We agreed should bring visiting family next time. |

| 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've been on this cruise three times now. First on business; then I went back with my family, and most lately with my in-laws. Everyone I've been with on this cruise has agreed with me that it's wonderful. The people are very nice; Food is good; provides a little respite from the intense Phoenix heat; Can't beat the scenery. |
