| We had a fantastic time and enjoyed everything about the cruise. The staff was great and very informative. My 78 year old Mom from Kansas just loved it. Thanks for the great weather as that was especially nice. I am going to recommend this trip to all my friends. |

| We truly enjoyed ourselves on this trip. We saw a few bighorn sheep, herons, and lots of birds. The scenery is awesome! The narration and music added to the trip. It is a very relaxing way to spend an afternoon with friends. Be sure to check out the restaurant at the marina when you finish your ride. I'm sure I will be back with more friends in the future! |

| We had a delightful time. Everything was well organized. The staff was polite and helpful. The boat was clean and well-maintained. The narration was good, neither too much talking nor too little. It was very informative.
Neither the sun nor the sheep showed themselves, but those two things are outside the control of the operators of Dolly's.
We would give the day a rating of five on a scale of one to five! |

| My daughter and I had a wonderful, relaxing, and enjoyable tour on the Dolly.
She was visiting from Ohio and was very happy about our choice of entertainment.
It was well narrated, peaceful, and just perfect in every way with the weather being very accommodating also on Dec 11. We will redo this tour next year.
The captain did a great job as did the assistants on deck. Thanks so much !!!! |

| The captain and crew were great, the narration was interesting, educational and most of all not too mcuh of it, just the right amount.
We were expecting to see wildlife and saw none, only 2 blue herons. That was a dissappointment for us as your brochure created high expectations. |

| My husband and I saw the info about the tour in the AAA Club travel guide. We were pleasantly surprised by the tour. It was a beautiful day. We didn't get to see any wildlife but the scenery more than made up for it. Captain Tom did a great job narrating. We could have spent the whole day out there and were sad when the boat ride was over. The only thing missing was lounge chairs on the deck! Next time we travel to Phoenix we plan to try the Astronomy tour. There were no kids on the tour which made it peaceful. I think kids might get bored and that this is more of an activity for adults looking for a nice relaxing way to see beautiful scenery. ( Nothing against kids we have a few ourselves.) |

| We've been on similar trips in other areas, but this by far was the best. The website was well written and gave me the answers to all my questions. The accomodations were terrific; easy on, easy off, which was much appreciated by my elderly parents.
The crew, especially Capt. Tom, was knowledgable and accomodating. When he spotted a Big Horn Sheep in the rocks, he slowed the steamer down to a crawl and brought it close to the shore so everyone could see this beautiful creature up close.
We've already made plans to take the night cruise. You should too. |

| Although a bit disappointed in the boat (not a real paddle boat), the lake and scenery were wonderful. Captain TOM was very personable and a fountain of information, making the 90-minute cruise around the lake very enjoyable. |
