| Whenever I have company from out of state I try to make time for them to take this trip. It provides them with beautiful views and good information about our life here in the desert. |

| The boat ride allowed you to take great pictures without electric poles, signs, traffic, etc. The guide was very good at pointing out mountain sheep, stone formations, and other "Kodak" moments. The crew was very friendly and made you feel at home. |

| We winter in Arizona and when people come to visit us we always make it a point to take them on the Dolly Steamboat ride. Our first year that we visited Arizona we took the ride and enjoyed it tremendously. So now this is one of the things we plan for them to do. |

| We particularly enjoyed the winding road that leads to the lake. Very European in nature.
The crew was very cordial, friendly and knowledgeable about the local area.
The ride is very slow but enjoyed the landscape and just relaxing.
We were hoping to see some big horn sheep as advertised but found out that it was too hot for them to be out and about on the day that we were there. This was on Aug. 29, 2009. So, a little disappointed but still enjoyed the ride.
If you have small children you will have to work to keep them from getting a little bored. We had our 8 year old grandson and his dad with us. He did pretty well but I needed to show some excitement about the fauna and rock formations from time to time to keep him from getting too bored. He really wanted to be on one of the wave runners that were running about. He did enjoy the trip though. |

| This was our second time on the Dolly, and again it was an enjoyable experience. It is a great way to see the beauty that Arizona holds. A great way to spend a hour or two. |

| We went in July - a bit on the warm side, but the ride was fun, scenery nice, and the crew was friendly. All in all, a pleasant afternoon. If you're looking for things to do when friends visit from out-of-town, give it a try. We'll do the evening cruise next . . . |

| Unfortunately, at 12:00 pm, in the heat of the day, you are not going to see wildlife. Everyone mentioned that they were suprised that the tour wasn't offered earlier, especially due to AZ heat.
Otherwise, everyone seemed to enjoy the tour. |

| This was a great relaxing time. The kids got a little antsy towards the end - but walking around the boat fixed that. |
