| I enjoyed the Dolly Steamboat Cruise. The food was tasty, the views spectacular and the staff was wonderful. I was there for the astrology cruise and found Dr. Sky to be friendly and knowledgeable. Overall, it was a very enjoyable experience and I would go again.
One thought of caution: not everyone on that cruise was interested in the astrology. I found it hard to hear Dr. Sky as several intoxicated people were allowed to be loud and somewhat unruly. You should keep in mind that alcohol is allowed and passengers are allowed to roam both decks which unfortunately for a few of us interupted our meals. |

| We took my son and my daughter and her husband, on the dinner cruise last Saturday eve. My daughter lives in northern California and was totally enthralled with the experience. She never realized we had such a beautiful lake so close to Phoenix. The service and the food was wonderful. The captain's narration of the lake and canyon was very well done and very interesting. The ONLY small complaint I could make is I wished the cruise started at 5:00PM instead of 6:00PM because the last 45 minutes or so was in the dark and you couldnt see any of the features of the canyon. All in all, a very enjoyable time was had by all! We highly reccomend it! |

| We enjoyed the dinner cruise to celebrate a birthday. It was beautiful, relaxing and informative! It's nice that you start out in the daylight so you can see the scenery and wildlife, and then finish up in the dark with the stars and moonlight. It was a capacity group for our tour, so we didn't get our preferred seating, but you can wander around the entire boat and see the views from all sides. Seating was assigned based on reservation booking date (first come, first choice), so book early for the best seating. We would definitely choose this activity again! |

| Very fun evening, Excellent food, good size portions considering space allocations of boat. Captains description of local area and events good and clear. Addition of Mr. Sky, and his Star / Sky narration very informative.
Excellent evening and food overall. |

| This dinner cruise was a really great Saturday night date. The drive to Canyon Lake alone is a spectacular ride. Being from the east valley, I have known about the Dolly Steamboat for most of my life and finally decided to take the trip. I'm sorry I waited so long. I have been going to Canyon Lake for over 25 years but I learned quite a bit from the Captain as he narrated along the way. He was knowledgeable and had a great speaking voice. He was quick to point out the Bighorn Sheep back in the canyon which I would have probably missed on my own. Nice to see some rare wildlife out there. I thought the food was great, just like any backyard barbeque at my own house, except this had excellent service as well (I make everyone fend for themselves in my backyard). I doubt anyone could prepare a better meal on the back of a boat. This cruise also featured an astronomy expert who did an excellent job of talking about the night sky. It made for a little romance after the sun went down. I highly recommend the Dolly Steamboat cruise for locals as well as visitors. It's a great alternative to the regular in-town Saturday night. This would be fun and interesting any day of the week.

| Really enjoyed the tour and the hospitality of the crew including the captain's commentary. The dinner including linen was a nice touch. The beauty of the canyon caught us off guard. |

| My wife and I spent our 23rd anniversary here. It was absolutely awesome. Coming from a very non-romantic red neck. I have to say, I got the "A" OK from my wife on this surprise. Only took me 23 years to get it right. The whole entire cruise from start to finish was absolutely perfect. My wife and I did not want it to end. The staff, seating, food and boat made for a picture perfect evening. We definately recommend this cruise to any and all. You will not regret one thing. We "WILL" be coming back soon, with friends and family.
Thanks for making our Anniversay perfect. |
