| the trip was very beautiful and for me a very peaceful and relaxing time in our
busy schedules. The scenery was beautiful, we were even lucky enought to see
an eagle and the big horn sheep.
A wonderful trip. |

| The Dolly Steamboat provides a relaxing yet informative tour of the terrain surrounding Canyon Lake, a man-made lake east of the Phoenix Metropolitan Area in the Superstition Mountains. The tourguide was informative to local flora and fauna, pointing out nearby predator birds and bighorn sheep off in the distance. The 90-minute tour was neither too short nor too long. The price of the tour is reasonable and discounts are offered for AAA members. |

A delightful way to spend an afternoon

| The cruise was great. The scenrey is hard to beat.. But unless I had a large party or wanted to go on a busy day such as a weekend, I would not book on line. There is no discount for AAA as there is at the ticket window. Also there is a booking fee The cost of 2 adult tickets at the window is $34. On line it was $44. |

| Trip was well worth the 1 1/2 hour drive from N. Phoenix and New River, Az.
Scenery was beautiful and screne. Wished we had seen some critters along the way. Would take the dinner cruise next year. |

| Beautifull scenery. Saw a few mountain goats.It was very hot out and the boat moved too slow. Was expecting more information on the Superstition mountains. Maybe some history on the apache trail also. the Captain had a good sense of humor.the price was reasonable.Would recomend if you like to go of the beaten path. |

| We went on the 1-1/2 hour boat trip - it was just long enough and somewhat relaxing although the music was hard to hear at times. Somewhat informative - beautiful scenery. It is a nice trip to take for out of town guests. Would prefer different types of food offered, such as ice cream. Everything was salty. Lemonade would be good also. Priced a little bit too high. |

| My family and I found the Narrated Nature Cruise at Canyon Lake very relaxing, smooth, peaceful, and educational.
The Narrator also did an awesome job educating those familiar and unfamiliar with the Arizonan desert.
I would definately recommend the cruise to family, friends, and visitors.
Thanks for the great cruise!

| This was our first Dolly Steamboat cruise. I had seen Canyon Lake by motor boat and was anxious to experience the Dolly. My visitors (3) from Scotland loved the relaxing time and were thankful for the breeze through the lower deck. Cameras were clicking away. My other family members (2) also found the time relaxing and enjoyable. The 2 preteen girls of my group were quite content as well. We were not lucky enough to see any animals on shore but that is beyond the control of Dolly. |

| I and a couple of family members were really looking forward to attending the steamboat ferry ride. Unexpectedly I needed to leave town and head back home ft lauderdale, FL causing my vacation to be cut short. I understand that there are no cancellations or refunds but was hoping that there could be some recourse. I was wondering if a credit could be extended toward an activity here in this area if you provide activities or events on the east coast. Otherwise I heard that the steamboat ride would have been very enjoyable. Once again undecided but would like to take advantage of a future event. |
