| The captain is very informed and not only tells you about the things to see but he tells you before you get to it so that you can get your camera and place yourself better for that kodak moment. Then when he approches the area he stops so that all have a chance to see, hear the explanation and take pictures. The rest of the crew on the Dollly are also informed and can answer questions. They are friendly and eager to assist you with whatever you may need.I highly recommend this event to all. |

| I thought that the crusie was very educational and quite interesting. There were lots of things that i learned that i would have never guessed about. I also am even more interested in taking another one. I think the only down side was the time of year it was kinda hot so not as much wild life. |

| The ride was slow and hot. The narrative was more about faces in the rocks and only some about the types of rocks, cactus, etc. I would have liked more about the nature and less about the make believe.
The boat could have gone faster and further.
My husband said he would have liked to jump in the water, but that would seem out of the equation.
Some well placed fans would have made the ride less hot. |

Absolutely Marvelous and Relaxing..

| I loved the boat ride and all the gorgeous scenes. It was the most peaceful adventure I've been on in a long time and very romantic for couples. Just being on the water and seeing all the other boaters, jet skiers, and tubers made it all worthwhile.. I can't wait to return in the fall. The music was very relaxing too..I will tell everyone to go on the Dolly Steamboat. |

| Enjoyed the boat ride ,saw many animals& birds. Narration was terrific.At the waiting area there were signs"No food or beverages allowed aboard." The cruise was 12Noon-1:30PM. My husband & myself are both Diabetics and usually have lunch about this time. I told the Captain this & that we had 2 peanut butter sandwiches in my bag & a water. He had no problem with this. Before the boat took off from the pier I went down to see what was for sale-a sandwich, or a hot dog and was going to purchase from them. The woman said they had Popcorn, water. I asked if there was any lunch food. She said "No." I said"But we are not allowed to bring food?"
I am sure I am not the only one with this complaint. It was 115 degrees that day and many people would maybe have even purchase ice cream or popsicles if available.
Sitting beside us was 2 toddlers who were required to wear their floatation devices which made them so hot they cried the entire 1&1/2 hrs. (I know its a regulation).
Thank-you,this was my second trip on this boat & I will go again next year when I return there again.

| It was a hot day, but the scenery and narration were wonderful. Since the cruise is at noon and you are not allowed to bring food on board, it would have been nice to have more than popcorn and candy available to purchase. However, the trip was very much enjoyed. One comment, there were small children on board and with the requirement for all children under the age of 12 to wear life jackets, it might be wise to warn parents of this requirement prior to purchasing the tickets. A small girl of about one or two, cried the entire trip because she did not want to wear the life jacket. |

| The cruise was a nice way to spend some time and relax. The drive up to the lake was almost as scenic as the cruise itself, which was nice. It did seem a little pricy for just 90 minutes, but overall it was worth it. |

we enjoyed the cruise
