| This was an opportunity for our family from ages 8 to 60 to spend quality time together enjoying and learning about Arizona nature from enthusiastic guides that shared much information, pointed out specific details, and took time to answer questions that our group had with humor and obvious enjoyment of their roles as guides. We will definitely take other guests on this canyon tour aboard the Dolly steamboat. A meaningful experience in a short period of time, especially for out-of-state visitors. |

| Totally enjoyed the Steamboat ride!! The crew is very pleasant!! This is our second time on the Dolly Steamboat. However, I do not think I will use Zerve again. It would have been cheaper to buy the tickets at the dock or directly through the Dolly Steamboat phone line. |

Pretty Nice!

| I had cousins in from Scotland and New Jersey this November. We enjoyed everything about the tour. The narrator had a wonderful speaking voice and quite a sense of humor. The staff that was upstairs with us was completely knowledgeable about the area. Also, she shared her binoculars. And the best part of this cuise was seeing over a dozen bighorn sheep on the side of a mountain. What a thrill. |

| While the "Narrated Nature Cruise on Canyon Lake" was extremely scenic, beautiful and relaxing, it is not properly described. It should be labeled a Scenic Cruise of Canyon Lake. The narration was minimal! There was a short description of the dam, a comment that if you see any wildlife, please let the captain know, and he did point out some petrified wood. There was no other "narration". Oh, wait, he did point out several rock formations-ET, Indian Princess and last, but not least, Mozart. Mozart was accompanied with some pipe organ music which would have scared away any wildlife in the area!
While we enjoyed the cruise immensely, there was no narration about the history of the area, the flora and fauna or anything else remotely "nature". |

| Taking a trip on the Dolly Steamboat at Canyon Lake is like riding through a "Mini" Grand Canyon. The beauty of the rocks, the crisp, stillness of the water, the vegetation growing from the sides of the cliffs.....and sometimes catching sight of wildlife along the way makes for a wonderful adventure as you enjoy the ride.
This is a "must" stop when we have out of state company visiting us. They always are impressed with the lake's beauty and the friendliness of the people working on the Dolly Steamboat.
Keep up the good work.

| It was a beautiful senic tour of the canyon. - just perfect! Our 15 yr old granddaughters said it was the most fun thing we did on our vacation. Being from Ohio, it seemed strange driving up the mountain to find a big lake with lots of boaters! Also, good food while waiting for our ride! |
