| I had taken a day off work for another activity but that didn't happen so I asked my friend from Phoenix, whom I "hang out with on Saturdays at my pool" if she'd be interested in going on this trip I just read about in the Tribune. She was all for that sence she'd lived here 18 years and never been to Canyon Lake. We had a very nice trip up there in the morning and visited with various people while waiting to get checked in for the ride.
I liked the fact that safety was addressed right from the start as I have been on other "cruises" such as this and not a thing was ever mentioned. There were not too many people on the boat, to say that only enough persons were allowed as there were seats for, no "standing room" situations.
Very nice crew, good "show and tell" and adiquit accommodations. Interesting history and sufficient time for photographs.
So very relaxing for me that I just lingered in my seat as most of the passengers debarked.
My husband is interested in going now so may be booking again soon.
Thank you for a very enjoyable time.

| A very nice day. The captain could keep the sales tactic down to 1 or 2 times mentioning the dinner cruise and concession stand. |

| Everyone was very friendly. The ride was smooth and fun. My only negative comment would be that the volume should be turned up on the speakers as it was hard to hear. |

Seeing the Big Horn Sheep was a highlight.

| We moved to Apache Junction from upstate New York in January of 2006. We discovered Canyon Lake and the Dolly Steamboat Cruise and have taken EVERY visitor ever since. Thanks to our Captan, Jeff, he alerted us to the presence of several Big Horn Sheep on top of a cliff. I was able to photograph them.
Every one of our cruises was a most enjoyable experience but this one was extraordinary! Thank you Jeff.
Even though the cost is reasonable, I'm still waiting for my "frequent flyer" discounts!! |

| Everything was great -- from the wonderful drive out to the dock on!
I especially like the "board by #" - it avoids the stampede for the best seats.
Only negative comment is the statement to be there 30 minutes before boarding - and there's no one in the ticket office! But the prior cruise showed up 25 minutes before, so things went OK.
The lake is beautiful - the commentary very good. The staff was friendly, and helpful. One word of warning - if you set up front, you have trouble hearing the commentary for the wind and bow splash.
All in all - a very relaxing 1-1/2 hours. |
