| I and my elderly parents took the noon hour cruise in early September. We found it to be a very soothing ride. We enjoyed the scenery and the captain did not talk too much. Even though it was a hot day there was a slight cooling breeze on the water.
Sitting on the top deck inside gave a great view of the canyon and protection from the sun.
Walking down the many steps to the boat was difficult for my dad but he was the one who did not want help. He did start down ahead of the group. I knew beforehand that there was a wheelchair available if necessary.
I wish the cruise were either at 10:30 a.m. or 1:30 p.m. Our only criticism is that we were starving by the time we got back on shore and could have our leisurely lunch at the resaurant. |

A fun outing for tourists and locals alike.

| I am a local and have brought all my visitors to ride the Dolly. I would do this by myself even if I didn't have enough out of town visitors at different times of the year to take in the changing scenery. A great inexpensive, relaxing event away from the hustle and bustle of vacation touring. |

This cruise is always a good sightseeing adventure

| My wife and I took the 1 1/2 hr Narrated Nature Cruise on Canyon Lake halfway through our holidays. We have been to Arizona several times and almost always end up taking the trek through the Superstition Mountains. The drive is always spectacular, but this time we decided on a whim to add the cruise. What an unexpected gem we found. I am sure we will become regulars when we retire. We had a delightful time. It was quite warm that day but there was usually a breeze blowing over the boat. The Captain was well informed on the area and wildlife, pointed out many interesting things AND played great music all the way through the ride. I would recommend this cruise to anyone who wants a scenic drive and a relaxing tour of a beautiful lake. |

| My husband and I had a guest from out of state. My husband is disabled and it was quite convenient to get him and the wheelchair onto the boat. We would definitely recommend this to our friends and go again. |

| We found the cruise a nice way to spend a Sunday afternoon with friends from out of state. The scenic drive to the lake was enjoyable as was the canyon. |

| 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.
