| Dolly Steamboat gave us a 90 minute cruise on Canyon lake. Captain gave us a narration during the cruise. Lots of information as to South-West cacti, volcanic rock formation, mountain sheep herds, etc. Bring your camera, sunglasses, and a hat. |

Very pleasantly surprised

| My wife and I are from Ohio and are in the Phoenix area for Spring Training. I found out about the Dolly boat ride from surfing the internet regarding Phoenix area activities. After reading the reviews about the boat ride and the area, I felt this would be worth checking into. We were very impressed with the overall boat ride and the Canyon Lake area. The many positive reviews were right on target. The boat was filled to capacity and it appeared that all were enjoying the experience. I would recommend that you purchase your tickets in advance as walkons run the risk of not getting on the boat after a rather long but interesting drive from the Phoenix area. |

| My wife and I had been on this "Dolly" cruise in the past, recently relocated to Az and were visited by friends from New England. There were 6 of us and we all enjoyed the 1-1/2 ride which was narrated ( not overdone) with plenty of local info passed along during the ride. The views were spectacular and we did get to see about 20-25 Mountain Goats grazing around the mountains. Just being able to sit back, relax and enjoy the scenery, while getting an education about the area made it time and money well spent. We all said we would recommend this to others. |

| I thought it was great only thing that I was confused about is that we bought on line and thought we had to give the ticket to the people on the boat because we had our ticket was there a hour early and we got on the boat and could not seat together. that was the only thing that I could see that was a problem. But that was our misunderstanding. We enjoy it greatly. |

| Took my wife, mother-in-law and father-in-law on this scenic trip and it was beautiful! I'm sure it would have been even better if the sun was out, but we had a great time! Great for those who have never seen this area before! |

Nice pleasant cruise

| The Dolly is a nice way to get out on Canyon Lake and see its beauty and possibly some wildlife if you don't have a boat or are not from the area, and don't want to spend the big bucks to rent a boat at the marina.
The staff is friendly and the Captain's narration is informative. The boat is comfortable.
We took my wife's 93 year old grandmother, who is in a wheelchair, and she had a blast. There is easy ramp access down to the boat and from the dock onto the boat. Recommended! |
