| Once on the boat it was a great time, very friendly staff. Pointing out some unquie features and history of the canyon walls. Even the music on the boat was very relaxing. |

| We thoroughly enjoyed this trip. The highlight for the children ages 6-10 was the sighting of eagles and big horn sheep. We also saw blue heron and turkey vultures. The scenery was beautiful. There are tables on deck, so you are able to visit with family and have snacks. There is a snack bar where you can purchase soda, popcorn, chips and small candy snacks. There is shade and open areas and ample opportunity for great photographs. We brought binoculars which was tremendously helpful - although you can make out the sheep and eagles with the naked eye, it was great to see all the details. |

| My husband and I enjoyed the beauty of Canyon Lake and the rock formations. We are from Alaska and see many beautiful sights, but we find Arizona has many beautiful sights as well. The crew on the Dolly Steamship were very cordial and helpful.
We would have enjoyed seeing more wildlife, but understand this is unpredictable. We did see 4 Big Horn Sheep. |

| My friend and I recently took the boat tour with our (combined) 3 children, ages 7, 3, and 3. The majority of the passengers were mature adults. It was nice that the kids could walk around during the tour and that we weren't stuck in our seats.
Get there early and stand in line. They board the boat according to your ticket number. We didn't realize this, so ended up being one of the last ones on board.
Sunscreen recommended if you sit up top in the sun. If you are sitting down below, it's not necessary.
The captain was extremely friendly, giving many details during the tour to all of the passengers. He was extremely kind and offered our children to stick around after the boat ride to show them where the motors were located. He pulled up the floor board and explained to them how the motors worked. |

| Our group was 2 moms and 3 children - ages 7, 3 and 3. We camped at the Marina. This was a great activity for the children. Restroom facilities and snacks/drinks on board were a bonus. Absolutely get tickets several days in advance. Both cruise times were sold out the day we went. |
