| I was disappointed in our table. We had purchased our tickets on Friday, May 9, with the understanding that we would have a table for two, on top, outside.
Since we had a reservation, we went to get our pass to go on board. When we got up to the counter the girl got flustered because they had not assigned a table for us before hand. Our name was on the list but they forgot to assign us to a table and she said was sorry for the error. There were no more tables for two outside. Therefore, the table they set up for us was below, across from the snack bar, and across the bathroom, and near where they were cooking. Not only did we not get the view we hoped for but when it came time for dinner, they served us first and we got everyone lining up and coming through the snack area (where we were seated) to get their dinner while we were eating .
i do not understand how they missed assigning a table when they had a reservation. |

| The dinner and the view was very nice.
We were all disappointed because Jan told us that we had the upper level out from under the cover and we were all sat down stairs....
I believe if we all new this we would have rescheduled another time... |

| What a wonderful evening May 10, 2008 turned out to be. The weather was perfect as we embarked on the Astronomy Cruise. We were seated at the front railing on the bow of the Dolly and could see everything. We saw bighorn sheep before we even set sail! The dinner was good and Dr. Sky was informative and entertaining. This is rather costly to do very often, but is a nice treat when you want to do something extra-special. We cruise on the Dolly every few years and have a memorable trip each time. |

| The food was decent, not spectacular. The boat ride and the crew were superb! It's a lovely trip and an opportunity to see more of the "best of Arizona"...which, contrary to the opinions of some, is not all about Scottsdale. Dr. Sky (the astronomy show) was interesting, although finding a spot on the boat to see everything was a challenge. And seeing thorugh the high-powered telescope was fantastic...although, again, tough to do with the number of people on board. All in all a nice, relaxing evening on the water that we plan to do again! |

This is the 2nd time we've brought out of state guests on this cruise.

We highly recommend it. |

| The scenery, food, and atmosphere make this an extremely pleasant activity. My only recommendation would be to put some timelines on your map, as people from outside the area may not realize how far (in time) the location is from Phoenix and how much time it takes to drive the twisting, two-lane road. |

| The cruise was very nice, the captain was informative.We would do the cruise again. The dinner was not worth the price. The meal was cooked prior & then guests were asked to go to get the meal from the aft deck. By the time we got our turn, the chicken was dry & cold & the filet megnon was luke warm & way over done. The veggies were gone & the server could not find many in the juice, the salad had been picked over & not much left other than large whie pieces of iceberg lettuce. |

| Would recommend this for anyone who is stressed out and just need to get away.
The staff was great, food was good, great way to get nature pictures. There was
soft music playing but would have prefered just the sounds of nature. Of course
they would have to add a charge for returning sleeping patrons to their cars. |

Beautiful, relaxing, highly recommended

| If you're looking for a way to enjoy some of our most beautiful desert scenery, I highly recommend this cruise. The setting is very relaxing, the crew gracious and accommodating, and the dinner was very good. I think children and maybe even young adults might find it a tad boring, but we found the cruise to be peaceful, relaxing, and a great way to unwind. A very enjoyable experience, we'll definately go again. |
