| I took my 86 year old mother and her friend up from Tucson for the dinner cruise. Of course, the scenery was fabulous...can't change that!! The cruise itself was very enjoyable. We did the astronomy cruise due to date of our trip, not by choice, but it was certainly interesting and educational for all of us.
The staff was very friendly and helpful, especially to my mother and her friend. They (and I) appreciated the extra assistance they were given.
The food was good overall, except the chicken was overcooked. I think it was last time, as well. That may be due to bacteria concerns, but it was so dry it was difficult to cut, which seems a little overkill! My steak was great, not overcooked. It's a really good meal, especially considering you are out on a boat. Good job!
I would recommend..and have...the dinner cruise to anyone. It's a beautiful setting and the crew are so nice and helpful. It's something that can be done more than once and there's always something new to enjoy.
Even my mother's friend...who is a bit difficult to please, shall we please...did enjoy herself. Thank you. |

| we had a wonderfull tour, great food, good service and much fun. but as it gets dark so soon they should start one hour earlier at 4.30 . After one hour it was dark and we just could see nothing. We would have enjoyed it more with more daylight and late sunset. |

| The boat ride was enjoyable and the food was good. However, we would have enjoyed ourselves a little more if the cruise would have left a little earlier so we could enjoy more of the scenery. We also did not like the buffet style dinner, we expected to have a waiter. Overall the length of the cruise was perfect and enjoyed our family time together. |

| We had a very enjoyable evening for the most part. I am hesitant to recommend it because I would never pay what it cost for what we got. We went as a gift from friends. We were shaded almost entirely. We had the perfect amount of sun and darkness. Mid May requires fans however and we felt a bit stuffy. Any hotter and we would have been uncomfortable. We saw big horned sheep and some huge birds. The captain gave just the right amount of narration. He was able to point out many interesting things. We enjoyed much quiet time visiting as well. The food was surprisingly good. We were all filled. The meat was cooked on an open grill and was very tasty. The salad could have used croutons or something other than opening a bag but I sure ate it all up anyways! The baked potatoes were perfectly done as well as the veggies. The pie tasted like a good store bought pie. It was really a yummy meal. Part way through our meal, stinky water started dripping on us from the ceiling. We made the captain aware and he said he would investigate. 20 minutes later it was just dripping more. We asked 2 other people for a solution and finally found out that a leaky ice machine overhead was not given the proper care and they corrected it but that the water was already in the ceiling. Sorry! There were no available tables to move us to and nobody attempted at another solution. We asked them to put chairs up on the deck for us and we would sit there. They seemed to then forget about us and we needed to remind them that we were interested in dessert. We were disappointed in their response to our problem which was there problem actually. They may have been a bit understaffed for anything out of the ordinary. All in all, we had a good time. We've done it now and will not likely do it again. |
