| We thought this would be a great activity for my parents who were visiting. We also thought this tour was child-friendly. Neither turned out to be true.
Yes, kids are 'allowed'. However, I would think long and hard before bringing any children under 12. We didn't know children, even babies, were required to wear life-jackets at all times on the top deck. Once we got settled, one of the tour guides was EXTREMELY direct, almost rude, regarding our two children, not only having their life jackets on, but, snapping all of the snaps. (Is it REALLY necessary to snap all the snaps on a over-sized life jacket for a 6 MONTH old, who we're holding?)
Anyways, moved to the bottom and were all counting down the minutes for the tour to be over.
On a positive note, it seemed like all the guest over 75 years of age were really enjoying themselves. |

| Very enjoyable. Friendly and knowageable crew. Information she didn't have she looked up for us. Not as much wild life as we expected but did see some big horn sheep and beautiful scenery. Would recommend the cruise but not the drive to it if you are afraid of heights. |

| Have never taken this boat ride without seeing bighorn sheep on the cliffs.
Always try to take visitors from out of state for this special experience of our desert/canyons.l |

| I had reservations for myself and my family on April 23rd for a 2pm cruise. I was staying at the JW Marriot in Phoenix and was told by the concierge that the drive to Canyon Lake would take 45 minutes which was very obviously wrong. When we were already on the Apache trail, and realized that we would be five minutes late, I called the Zerve phone number and told them that we would be five minutes late so that they could alert the boat and they told me that there was no way for them to reach the dock . I called the other number that they had given me at the time of my reservation and the woman who answered also told me that she had no way to reach the dock. It was very upsetting that they could not reach the boat in a circumstance such as this or even in an emergency. Sure enough, as we got to the dock, the boat was just pulling away and there was no reperesentative at the dock to help and the ticket booth was closed. I waved and waved at the boat , but no one saw me. Therefore, I am very upset with the Dolly Steamboat and in fact, think that my money should be refunded and certainly at this point would not recommend it to anyone.
Sincerely, Dr Robin Goldman Reich |

| My husband and I took our nine year old twins on the Dolly Steamboat Canyon Lake tour. We all had a great time. I would highly recommend this activity.
Also, the car ride to Canyon Lake was beautiful. |

| This cruise is a very relaxing journey into the canyon. I thought all there was was the water you can see from the road. How wrong I was. The cruise showed many facets of the canyon and the beauty of the area It was just beautiful. |
