| We took our Mom and Dad for there birthdays - The cruise was very well ran.
I am fairly critical of service related industries but these guys did great! The captain was knowledgable and informative, but not annoying. The staff was available but not in your face. The food (Which is what I was there for :-) was great. The Filet Mignon was tasty and tender (I like mine rarer but they need to cook for the majority and at least it wasn't well done - I would say med / med rare), the chicken was moist, the potatoe was perfect as was the warm apple pie. We had an absolute blast and would recomend this dinner cruise to anyone. I highly recommend the top deck / uncovered for seating. When the sun goes down, there is little light adding to the atmoshere and there were several pairs of smoochers aboard. For the atmosphere and the food - It's a 10 ! The ONLY thing I would say needed any work, was someone up front to answer questions a few minutes before the window opens. People are left to figure it for themselves and I saw some older folks get confused.
Thanks for a great time. |

| My parents enjoyed having their 80th birthday celebrated on the Dolly. The whole family really enjoyed themselves. Captain Tom was great, had excellent information to share on AZ, the lake, and wildlife. The food was good. I would have said great, but it was inconsistent. My steak was perfectly cooked. My wife's was cooked to long and was consequently dry. Overall a great experience. |

| The cruise was very good, Capt Tom's narrative was clear and useful. A little more of the Geology would be good. Dinner was excellent, both food and service. The Astronomy section was good though a little less self-promotion and more Astronomy would be an improvement. The cruise was sufficiently interesting that we plan to take an afternoon cruise. |

| The weather was perfect, the trip just fast enough to see the beautiful scenery and take pictures, the staff friendly and helpful and knowledgable about the boat and scenery. The meal eaten by candlelight was great and more than enough food (for me) with the canyon walls in silhouette and then later lighted from the light reflected from the boat. The music was mellow and appropriate. We recommend this trip. Don't know how it would be if the weather is bad though. |

Lots of Fun!

| I have lived in Arizona, Scottsdale, for over 20 years and was not aware of this adventure until my husband was looking for something unique for my birthday. He heard of it from an out of town friend. We had a great time! Need to advertise to the local people so they can also have fun! The Captain was great and really informed of the local area. We loved his Apache Lake narration.n He also had a great sense of humor.
Thanks for a great time. |

| The tour of Canyon Lake was beautiful. The dinner was very good. The meat was grilled right on the boat so it was fresh & hot. The staff was friendly and accomodating |
|
A great and relaxing trip!

| This is a view of Arizona that everyone should see. You can't beat the scenery, and the food is good too. Good food and over-the-top scenery makes this a great value and a must-do. We are new residents of Arizona. We plan to be return customers for this cruise when our out-of-town family comes to visit. |
