| I take everyone who visits on the cruise! I have been on it at least 8 times! The ride to The Dolly is beautiful ! I always take my guests first to Torteia Flats to get a picture of them having a drink in the saddle. We than return to The Dloly. The Dolly had been referbished since the last time I was on it. It looked Great! We saw a lot of wildlife on this trip. The scenery was spectacular as always! The staff is very knowledgable and helpful! Any trip to Phoienx would not be complete without taking the Dolly! We always complete our trip by stoping at the gost town on the way back. Best burger in AZ. Sit on the patio and gaze at the Superstions!
Just a reminder; The Dolly does not take credit cards ( that is why I used Zerve. ) If you have reservation you get to recieve your bording pass first so you board first and get the best seats!I ( another reason to use Zerve)
I packed light healthy snacks but there was a sign saying we could not take on board, so we returned them to the car. A lot of other passangers did bring food and drink on board and nothing was said. |

| We enjoyed our narrated nature cruise on Canyon Lake. The scenery was beautiful and the staff were helpful. The weather could have been better, but that can't be controlled. |

| I loved the boat ride and all the gorgeous scenes. It was the most peaceful adventure I've been on in a long time and very romantic for couples. Just being on the water and seeing all the other boaters, jet skiers, and tubers made it all worthwhile.. I can't wait to return in the fall. The music was very relaxing too..I will tell everyone to go on the Dolly Steamboat. |

| The Dolly Steamboat provides a relaxing yet informative tour of the terrain surrounding Canyon Lake, a man-made lake east of the Phoenix Metropolitan Area in the Superstition Mountains. The tourguide was informative to local flora and fauna, pointing out nearby predator birds and bighorn sheep off in the distance. The 90-minute tour was neither too short nor too long. The price of the tour is reasonable and discounts are offered for AAA members. |

| It was amazing how much you can pack in in 90 min. The tour was awsome and the views were spectacular. This tour shows alot of what Arizona has to offer with so much diversity. From the desert to the high cliffs it was beautiful to see. The Captain was also very knowledgeable on local facts and lore. |

| The lake was wonderful to just sit back and enjoy. Even after coming up to Canyon Lake with our own boat for the past 39 years, I learned some new facts about the lake and saw some new formations I had never noticed before. Our group is considering doing an evening dinner cruise in the future. |

| The captain of the ship gave a short narration on things that we viewed as he drove around the lake. I would have preferred more detail. |
