| This was a birthday trip and it was completely wonderful. The food is very good and the people who work on the boat are just fantastic. The scenery is without parallel and we had the added bonus of several wildlife sightings. I recommend this to anyone who loves this area. |

| My wife and I celebrated our 1st wedding anniversary with dinner on the Arizona Dolly. It was wonderful, the whole crew was very professional, the food was excellent and I wish I could find the words to describe the beautiful views found around Canyon Lake but it has let me speechless. |

| My wife and I really enjoyed our cruise. It was a bit much for the amount of food--it was just more than we usually eat. We would have liked the opportunity to split the provided food at a slightly reduced cost. |

| The cruise was very relaxing, the food was moderate. Very friendly crew. Our seating was excellent. We would definitely take the dinner cruise again were it not for the distance, and the last 14 miles on the Apache Trail. Approaching the destination wasn't too bad, coming back, in the dark, with no shoulder or guard rails was a bit unnerving. It was a bit pricey. I only eat chicken, and chose not to get the pasta entre for the same price. Perhaps the vegetarian selection should be a lower amount? |

| The Captain was personable, pointing out wildlife and telling funny stories. Food was great, although menu said pasta primavera for the veggie selection and what I got was spaghetti, but it was great. The cruise is 2.5 hours long, and we thought 2 would have been better - we got a bit bored after dark. |

It was a nice evening though a bit pricey

| 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. |

| Me and my wife had not been to this area in 18 years. We flew in that same day and we were pressed for time. If you go on this cruise make sure to give yourself plenty of time to take in the sights on the drive to Canyon Lake and even though the road is paved,it has some hairpin turns. When booking this cruise, ask for seats in the back of the boat and on the upper deck. Some of the other passengers came back and stood because of the veiws and the breeze.The food on the dinner cruise was great and serving sizes were fine. I definitely would recommend this cruise for dates and special occasions. |

| The cruise was a great way to spend an evening. The canyon is beautiful and the boat comfortable. They actually grilled the meats on the rear deck of the boat so it smelled wonderful while we were waiting for dinner to be ready. The dinner itself was a nice meal - prepared well and tasted great.
I DO NOT recommend this cruise for children. 2-1/2 hours is too long for them to be confined to a 123' x 18' boat and it is not fair for the other passengers to have to listen/watch out for them. Children would enjoy the afternoon cruises - they're only an hour so would give them the canyon tour without loosing their attention. |
