| I've been to Canyon Lake many a time but never in a boat. What a sight! I didn't know it was so big. My only complaint about the tour was that we did not go anywhere near the dam. I would have liked a picture without using my zoom lens on the camera. We saw a small herd (7-8) of bighorn sheep and the boat backed up so we coulld see more of them. I would recommend this tour for anyone interested in Arizona lakes. |

| Overall a positive experience. Do not expect to see wildlife during the daytime cruise. I think the kids were a little bored with information regarding the rock formations etc. but it was interesting for others. Please know that children 12 and under are required to wear a life jacket throughout the entire cruise- this was a problem for some children on board so be prepared. |

| We took some out of town family on the Dolly Steamboat. They truly loved it and can't stop talking about what a great time they had. The scenery was beautiful and the naration made the whole ride worthwile. Even my young children enjoyed it. I would definitely come back again. |

| My group of 4 took the Dolly Tour on Canyon Lake on Sunday October 11, 2009. What a beautiful, glorious day it was! The tour was well attended and represented a good showing of all ages. With great weather (what else can you expect in southern Arizona) we were able to spend ample time outside enjoying the absolutely beautiful scenery. What was great to see were the numerous people enjoying themselves in the boating and jet skiing activities througout the tour. I recommend this tour to all. |

| This was a last minute decision on our part. First time visitors to Phoenix and with all the options of things to do, places to go; we decided on Canyon Lake. We're very glad we did. Beautiful drive to and from and a very enjoyable boat trip. Crew was knowledgeable and pleasant. Thank you! |

| This was a wonderful trip. Having lived in Arizona for 17 years, I'd never heard of the Dolly Steam Boat...it took a visiting couple from England to enlighten me and my sister to its existence. I have already recommended this trip to everyone at work. The restaurant at the marina left MUCH to be desired. Service was poor, waited over 45 min for our breakfast which made us have to eat in a hurry to get on boat, could not find waitress for bill....next time we will eat breakfast in the valley. |
