| We were celebrating our 19th anniversary with our grown son & daughter-in-law and our youngest son. It was also his 16th birthday. The way in which everything was handled, from the reservations to getting directions, to boarding and dinner was very, very nicely done. We are from Phoenix and had never seen big horn sheep before. We saw several on the trip and it was wonderful. The dinner was very well prepared, generous portions and staff was incredibly polite and welcoming. The captain and staff knew about our celebrations and made an extra effort to make it a special day for all of us.
The only thing I would change would be the sturdiness of the dinnerware. The plates were a little flimsy and hard to manage from the buffet table on the first level to the upstairs dining area. |

| My 65th birthday was special so friends decided we should take a cruise. This was a wonderful evening, as the weather was perfect. Captain Jeff was so personable & knowledgeable & made each passenger feel special. As my husband has limited mobility, the customer reps on board were extremely helpful. The meal was very tasty and plentiful. There was a soft breeze as we cruised through the canyons & we even spotted 5 or 6 big horn sheep along with several deer. Seeing the sun setting through the canyon walls was a bonus. Perhaps next time we'll take the astronomy cruise, which also has the great dinner along with an educated astronomer informing passengers of the spectacular sights in the heavens. I would not hesitate this excursion for anyone. |

| This was an amazing excursion. The weather was beautiful and the food was so much better than expected! Even though the price seemed high for what was described, spend the money and do it, you won't be disapointed. The mountains and the wildlife, the water, the sky, it was all just amazing! You start out w/ a narrated trip around the lake and the canyon and then as the sun starts to set dinner is served.
The food was prepared fresh on site from a grill, so it made everything taste great. The portions were just perfect and made for a nice eveing overall.
The staff on the boat was knowledgeable about the area and took great pride in imparting information about the Canyon. All the staff was very accomadating and offered their services for picture taking, carrying food, serving drinks,etc.
I would highly recommend the dinner and check the calendar for a full moon. We had one the nite of our excursion and it was an added bonus to see it come up over the mountains and reflect off the water. Just do It!! |

| My wife and i had a really nice time on the dolly steamboat. The food was great, the captain and his crew did a fine job making sure that our questions were answered and that we had everything we needed.
I would recomend this mini cruise to any one of my friends or family. |

| 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! |

| The cruise was wonderfully relaxing. The stillness of the lake at night was heavenly. The crew was professional, very friendly and anxious to please. And the food was delicious! |

| I had purchased this trip for our 1 year anniversary. My boyfriend was speechless (rare). Usually, he outdoes me with much pride. Not the case this time. He was in awe during the entire cruise. I had requested the upper deck thinking it would be the most romantic spot; Nicole took the liberty of placing us at the bow of boat. Great call Nicole, Thank you so much! It was perfect! Captain Tom is a man with great character. He narrated the tour ever so perfectly. Narrators typically bore me, but not Captain Tom! He was wonderful!
My words can not describe what a wonderful evening we had. You'll have to experience it for yourself. We are very eager to embark on the other cruises offered. See you soon! |

| this was a 17th anniversary dinner for my wife and I. the main cabin, where we were seated, was hot and muggy - very little airflow. upstairs seemed better because it was more open, but downstairs wasn't great.
the food was good, but limited; the "pasta primavera" was just pasta with tomato sauce, the chicken was good, but with only one piece, not so filling. Only iced tea, coffee, water, and lemonade are included for drinks; the water didn't taste very good, and the first pitcher on our table had a small piece of hair floating in it.
Probably not a "repeat" endeavor for us. |
