| Everything about this cruise was very enjoyable. The crew was very friendly, the captain was informative with his narration, and the food was delicious.
The only thing I would do differently would be to take this cruise earlier in the year. The last half of the cruise was after the sun went down and was basically in the dark. Still very enjoyable though. |

| The Dolly Steamboat was everything I thought it would be! What a fabulous trip, excellent food and awesome scenerary! This is a must trip for everyone who comes to Arizona! As a native from Arizona I saw territory that was breathtaking as well. I highly recommend this trip to anyone. |

| We done the evening trip and there were lots of seniors and no other children on board. The scenery is beautiful, the food had a good taste but was not warm. |

| 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. |

| 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. |

| 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. |

| 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. |
