| A great way to introduce out of town visitors to the beauty and grandeur of this state. Something for everyone. Relaxing boat ride, beautiful scenery, wildlife viewing, narrated with some humor and music. Take your camera, binnoculars, and your sense of appreciation for all that Arizona offers. |

| It was a very enjoyable day with the captain and crew being very knowledgeable. The only thing I would change is the way the guests are loaded onto the boat. Numbers really do not mean anything when everyone is crowded around the gate and the first 25 get to go on. They should be loaded according to number, the first 10 at a time. It's not going to take any longer and it makes it more fair. Otherwise all you have to do is get in line first and you're on as the captain really doesn't look at your number either. |

| The natural vistas and phenomena of the park and Canyon Lake with its many inlets and coves attest to the marvelous creation of God. I was with a group from our church and we enjoyed picnicking near the marina and taking the 1 1/2 hour cruise on the Dolly. The narrator and staff of the Dolly were courteous, well informed and provided an interesting ride on the lake and through the canyons. I would recommend this ride to any who like to relax and enjoy viewing beautiful nature and socializing with people. |

| I reserved the trip and paid on-line the night before, arrived early with the camera, binoculars and water that your website suggested and waited in the shade overlooking the lake on the benches provided. The only small hitch was the confusing sign on the window that seemed to say that they were not running again that day so a few people were worried and there was no one there to explain until the boat returned from the earlier cruise.
Overall, I plan to take others on the boat and probably try th dinner cruise some day.
I went near the end of March and the weather was near perfect for the 4:00 pm cruise.
The crew were helpful, friendly and kept us laughing and looking as they pointed out sights and gave good history information mixe with a few jokes.
Good job! |

| Have lived in arizona many years and never gotten around to taking this ride. Took my college daughter and her visiting friend and the scenery and wildlife were spectacular. Will take my parents on their next visit! |

| Both my son and I enjoyed the cruise. It was a beautiful sunny day - not too hot & not too cold. The tour guide was excellent pointing out the main points of interest plus he had a great sense of humor. Very enjoyable - I would do it again!! |

Our 4th trip on Dolly Steamboat was still terrific

| My 90 year old father and I took the 2:PM cruise. The Dolly was in top condition as they had just refurbished her. Jeff the Skipper was very entertaining with his wit and knowledge of the area. Cindi and Janet the crew members were great also. It was our 2nd time in 6 years on the cruise. Mike Coulter |

| The lake cruise was very restful which was exactly what I and my lady friend wanted. We would have liked to have the cruise enhanced with a more informative narrative -- one which gave us more detailed information on the lake's formation and explained how the present owners established their cruise company. |
