| Enjoyed seeing the scenery from the Dolly that we would not have been able to see from a car. The Captain's narration was fun and informative. |

| The entire adventure was great fun. The Dolly Steamboat crew was very friendly and accommodating. The captain of the ship shared his love of Canyon Lake and Steely Dan (ask him). He was very engaging and added a nice touch to the overall experience. The boat was clean and well-maintained. The drive to the lake was beautiful as was the lake itself. The popcorn was dee lish.
My wife purchased tix on-line a few days prior to the event and made a mistake, buying tix for Saturday instead of Friday. She called and left a message, hoping to change the date. She told me that the web site said "all sales final" and to plan on going Saturday, saying it would probably take an act of God to get the days switched.
The next day we got a confirmation email and phone call stating that the date was changed. Very cool. |

| The "cruise" was nice, and the scenery was great but you really need to be sitting outside on the top deck to fully enjoy the whole experience, much of what you are going to be looking at is very high up on the cliffs. The narrative by the captain was well done. The cruise begins at noon,... lunch time... and lasts an hour and a half... there are snacks ... popcorn, chips, sodas available for purchase on the boat but thats it. They really should serve some kind of lunch, either eat a very late breakfast or bring your fishing pole... your going to need it.
2 things that would make the cruise just awesome would be to completely remove the roof and enclosure on the top deck for greater viewing and to serve lunch. |

| We had a wonderful time on the cruise. A combination of breathtaking scenery, beautiful weather, and a great tour guide made this a memorable experience. I recommend this as a "must" for locals and tourists alike. |

| THIS IS THE SECOND TIME I HAVE BEEN ON THE DOLLY, THE FIRST TIME IT WAS WAY TO HOT, BUT I HAD FAMILY HERE SO WE WENT. I JUST TOOK FRIENDS FROM MICHIGAN THAT WAS VISITING AND IT WAS ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL.
I WILL NEVER AGAIN GO IN THE SUMMER, DON'T CARE WHO IS HERE! THIS LAST TRIP WAS THE BEST. IT'S TOO BAD THEY CAN'T SOMEHOW INSTALL A MISTING SYSTEM ON IT FOR THE HOT TRIPS.
ANYWAY I LOVE SHOWING THIS WONDERFUL STATE OF OURS TO FAMILY AND FRIENDS. I WILL BE GOING AGAIN WHEN MY FAMILY IS HERE IN FEBRUARY. |

| The ride was lovely and there is some beuatiful things to see. We enjoyed the ride and Captain Tom. The boarding process is a bit of a disaster. You take the printout you get from Zerve to the window to get a numbered boarding pass. After watching people cut in line, we finally got our boarding passes numbered in the 40's. When boarding was called, they allowed those with special needs to board first then it was supposed to be by number. However, chaos erupted and people just stormed the captain and handed him their tickets. The captain seemed flustered and didn't even check the numbered tickets. We just got out of the way and were one of the last to board. I think they need more people to help with the process to keep everyone in line. If they don't intend to board in an organized fashion, they should just abandon the attempt and get rid of the numbered tickets. |
