| The cruise was great. The scenrey is hard to beat.. But unless I had a large party or wanted to go on a busy day such as a weekend, I would not book on line. There is no discount for AAA as there is at the ticket window. Also there is a booking fee The cost of 2 adult tickets at the window is $34. On line it was $44. |

| The ride was wonderful. The weather was perfect. Of course it didnt hurt that it was the last week before the lake was drained so the food and candy was cheap. the kids loved it. I'd like to try that dinner cruise next. |

| We took the 12 Noon trip which was an ideal time because of the mid day lighting. Trip was peaceful and pace was slow. It was almost like taking a hot air balloon ride because of the gentle changing of the scenery--great panoramic views. Enjoyed the narration which gave just enough history and background to appreciate the surroundings.
Lunch at the Lakeside Restaurant overlooking the dock was excellent, also. We almost took a cooler of sandwiches, etc., because we did not know if there would be a place to eat that served OK food.
We would go back to the restaurant --and, of course, to the boat ride. |

| People are amazed when I take them on the Dolly. They have no idea such beauty in nature resides so close to Phoenix. Even the drive out is spectacular.
This tour of Canyon Lake is probably the best local attraction, hands down. |

| It was a very nice short trip. It could have had a little more as far as historical facts though. It seemed to be very limited in that department. Crew was very nice and the boat was clean. Its a nice drive to the boat as well but its not a drive for the faint at heart! Over all a nice trip! |

| The boat was in good repair though it could have used a bit of sprucing up (cobwebs on some of the windows) and considering that this is Arizona, a few fans would have been very nice to ward off some of the heat. The captain was very pleasant, well informed and treated everyone with respect and courtesy. I know this is out of your control but I think the lake is small and should be limited to boats only, ban the jet skies as they make the water very choppy and most of the operators have no respect for anyone else on the water. Back to the tour....the scenery around the lake is very nice and probably during the cooler months there is more wildlife visible along the shore and up on the higher elevations. All in all, a nice cruise. I would recommend it to anyone. |

| We had out of town family come to visit us in Chandler. Since we had a busy schedule, we didn't have time to prepare our boat and drag it to the lake, so we thought we'd give your tour boat a try. Given the relatively hot temperatures, I thought it would be uncomfortable, but with ample shade on the boat, we were quite comfortable. The ride was very well narrated, and Capt. T-O-M made it interesting. We saw a lot of gorgeous rugged desert and mountain terrain. I said to my wife that I wish we would have known about this when we first moved here 2 years ago. We look forward to doing a dinner cruise once the dam is repaired by next spring.
Thank You. |
