| This is a wonderfully spent 90 minutes. Don't miss the beauty of the canyon via the Dolly Steamboat. It is well worth the price, which is very reasonable. |

| We really enjoyed the cruise. Seeing the herd of desert big horn sheep was probably the highlight, but the whole 90 minutes was very relaxing and enjoyable. The weather was beautiful and it was a nice, short getaway from the city limits. Sometimes we forget about the easy access we have to some of the lakes and natural beauties here in the valley. We are looking forward to taking the twilight dinner cruise or the star gazing cruise later in the summer. |

| Dolly & her crew greeted us warmly upon boarding her and we were promptly underway. Canyon Lake is a desert jewel and we were both looking forward to the promise of beauty and the possibilities of wildlife sightings.
We were not disappointed.
Dolly took us on a slow stroll atop the calm water back into heart of the lake. Stone formations returned our stares; dark traces of rain fed waterfalls littered the canyon walls and I could easily imagine being here during a rainstorm to witness the multiple dozens of waterfalls in full bloom.
There weren't any bighorn sheep curious enough to make themselves visible to us on this day. There was, however, a magnificent bald eagle who decided to wow us with his impeccable self. Settling himself on the tallest outcropping from the clifftop he seemed to be content to watch the humans float by, all wearing those funny binoculars on their eyes!
All the while the Captain kept us informed & entertained over the PA, bringing our attention to other points of interest along the way. There's nothing like a little bit of forced relaxation and the Dolly Steamboat was a gratifying way to spend 90 minutes. I recommend it to newcomers and locals alike. |

| This was our second trip on the Dolly. It was fantastic the first time and the second trip was equal. It is a great experience of a different part of Arizona. The vessel and the crew are terrific. It is an informational journey presented with humor.....that made it great. We have recommended this tour to many of our friends. Keep up the great work. |

Second time here and it is still fantastic

| We took this tour on February 3rd.
The boat was clean and the staff was friendly.
The scenery was spectacular. I stopped taking pictures about half way through. I don't think my camera could do it justice. I just wanted to sit back and watch the scenery go by.
Don''t forget your binoculars! That will enhance your experience immeasurably. |

| it was our second cruise and we will go again. Suggestion: If you buy tickets on line you should be able to print a boarding pass instead of waiting in line. |

Scenic, but a little boring.
