| It wasn't clear to us that you did not wish us to bring food or drink.
Since it was a noon cruise, that might have been more clearly stated, and we would have complied.
other than that, we enjoyed ourselves very much.
Friendly staff makes it nice.

| The Dolly ride through the canyon took us to breathtaking views we can't see on a drive., and Captain Tom had interesting things to say about the rock formations, the wildlife and the history of the canyon. We didn't see the mountain sheep, who probably preferred shade on an 80-degree afternoon. It wasn't the Grand Canyon but it was grand in its up-close and magnificently beautiful way. |

| Our party of four, two from Minnesota and two local residents, had lunch at Cayon Lake and then took the 90 minute boat cruise. The boat trip was fantastic, especially the tour guides commentary. The views were superb and the accomodations and service was much better than expected. We will take this cruise ever time we visit the Phoenix area. |

| We enjoyed lunch as a group (families with preschoolers from our church) at Tortilla Flats, then completed the day with a 2 p.m. Dolly Steamboat trip. The children (2 - 8 year olds) had a great time spotting Big Horn Sheep and deer and just being on the water. The adults all enjoyed the scenery and pleasant boat ride, commenting it would be a different trip without children. I would recommend it either way, with or without preschoolers. |

| The trip was exceptional. I would enthusiastically recommend it to anyone. In Fact, we are having other visitors in two weeks, and we will more that likely take them on this trip as well. |

| I've lived in Arizona since 1968 and I can witness that the trip to and from Canyon Lake is one of the most scenic drives in Arizona. You can stop at the Gold Field Mine, a touristy 1800's style old west attraction, then meander on up the winding road to Canyon Lake. The scenery is breath-taking. Then there's the trip up into the canyons of Canyon Lake on the Dolly Steamboat. I once took a friend from Switzerland on this excursion and his comment on the way back out of the canyons, crossing the lake toward the marina was, "I've seen many beautiful places in my life, but this is the most beautiful place I have ever been." That comment came from a guy who has seen some very beautiful country. After the excursion, do not miss the next stop to the east, Tortilla Flat. It's "old west" to the max and they serve great burgers, BBQ, etc. You can make a day of it on this outing and come away thinking, "What a fantastic experience!" |
