| I think for the price there should have been some complimentary beverages or snacks. Other than that the boat ride was fine. What bothered me was all the jet ski's and drunk idiots that kept buzzing around the boat that annoyed me. At one point there was a helicopter that did about several low flybys. Which made it difficult to enjoy the music or narration. |

| The ride was lovely and there is some beuatiful things to see. We enjoyed the ride and Captain Tom. The boarding process is a bit of a disaster. You take the printout you get from Zerve to the window to get a numbered boarding pass. After watching people cut in line, we finally got our boarding passes numbered in the 40's. When boarding was called, they allowed those with special needs to board first then it was supposed to be by number. However, chaos erupted and people just stormed the captain and handed him their tickets. The captain seemed flustered and didn't even check the numbered tickets. We just got out of the way and were one of the last to board. I think they need more people to help with the process to keep everyone in line. If they don't intend to board in an organized fashion, they should just abandon the attempt and get rid of the numbered tickets. |

| My wife and I have lived in Tucson for 10 years, and had never been to Canyon Lake. The Dolly Steamboat ride was a great way to see the lake and its beauty. Our captain and crew were great as well. Only downside was it was raining heavily as we departed, putting somewhat of a damper on the experience. But someone must have been watching over us, since about 40 minutes into the cruise the sun came out. All in all it's a great day trip for tourists and locals as well. |

| The Dolly Steamboat tour was a leisurely way to spend time on a hot day during our visit to Arizona. The cooling effect of the lake as well as the beauty of the surrounding scenery made for a pleasant cruise. The captain and crew were courteous, friendly and informative. The steam boat was clean, neat and tidy. Highly recommended! |

| By using Zerve we didn't have to wait in line at the Dolly paddlewheel counter, but instead wre one of the first to go aboard, which gave us a nice choice of seats.
Made the whole process easy. Also eliminated the possibility of driveing all the way to the dock and finding out that it was sold out. |

Well worth the drive.

| A very different Arizona experience. I would emphasise how much longer it can take to get to the marina due to the windy road and slow driving conditions (speed limit and one-lane bridges). |

| The Dolly Steamboat ride on Canyon Lake was very peaceful and relaxing as we cruised the lake and discovered the hidden beauty around each turn. The bluffs rising straight out of the water and the surrounding wildlife were an unexpected and pleasant surprise. I highly recommend this cruise to anyone who appreciates nature's beauty. |

| Very enjoyable, relaxing day. Long enough to enjoy a great afternoon boat ride, followed by a cocktail make for a beautiful family day! I've recommended it to friends, and we will surely be back! |
