| We are from Tucson. It was about 2.5 hours drive to get to the lake. But it is worth the drive. The tour was great. There's food available on the boat if you want some snacks. . My 3 and 4 year olds both enjoyed the ride, snacks, and the views.. Us, parents, enjoyed a relaxing ride. It is such a wonderful change. The $19.00 ticket is well worth it. And the crew was great! The only thing, it does get hot on land, so if you are planning to take the Dolly ride, do it on cooler days. Not on triple-digit days. During the ride, though, it wasn't so bad. Cool breeze at the lake made it bearable. :o) |

| Whenever I have company from out of state I try to make time for them to take this trip. It provides them with beautiful views and good information about our life here in the desert. |

| We enjoyed the narrated afternoon tour. The descriptions of the various geological and fauna were very interesting. We found the experience to be relaxing. The crew was very informative and courteous. The vessel was comfortable and the snack bar was sufficient for the 90 minute tour. We had thought about taking our grand daughters on the afternoon cruise, but after experiencing it we decided that they would most likely not appreciate the type of information that was given and that they would become bored. It is a great tour for adults of all ages, with many photo opportunities. We would do it again. |

| We took the cruise as a last minute thing to do since we live locally. I didn't really expect much but this turned out to be a better outing than I anticipated. I actually enjoyed it quite a bit! I found it very relaxing and it brought back lots of great memories of past cruises I have been on with my wife. The scenery is spectacular and the narration was very good- I actually learned some new things and I live in Arizona! The food onboard was actually very reasonably priced so I was pleasantly surprised there. The boat was very comfortable and no motion sickness! The staff was very friendly too. The highlight for me was when we spotted a family of Big Horn Sheep feeding along the lake! For the price, this cruise was a really good experience- actually much better than I ever expected. I would like to do it again but maybe try the astronomy cruise or dinner cruise. |

| The boat ride had wonderful staff and the views of Canyon Lake were breathtaking. While I enjoyed the ride very much, I would have liked to have learned a little more (factual information) about the history of the lake and the surrounding area. The next time I am in Arizona I would like to try the dinner/stargazing cruise. |

| I think I expected more. Seats on the main level were hard to view any of the sites being pointed out. There were not a lot of narrated sites pointed out either. On the upside, the staff was very nice, helpful and the facilities were very clean. |
