| It was a relaxing activity, being able to sit back and enjoy the lake and visit with family without demands for time. A nice breather. |

| Driving to the Grand Canyon from Scottsdale with 3 young children in tow (ages 3, 5, 7) was not an option. The 90 minute excursion on Canyon Lake was spectacular, provided great scenery, and allowed us a wonderful experience. The narrator was very helpful pointing out rock formations and wildlife. We were able to move about the boat freely; we weren't confined to the "right side of the boat" while the crew was describing something on the "left side of the boat". The trip through Apache Junction was a thrill and we would do it again! |

| I took my son, my 2 granddaughters (7 & 10) and my sister-in-law and we all thoroughly enjoyed the trip. The pilot was very interesting and humorous. We plan to come back later and take a dinner cruise. |

| The entire adventure was great fun. The Dolly Steamboat crew was very friendly and accommodating. The captain of the ship shared his love of Canyon Lake and Steely Dan (ask him). He was very engaging and added a nice touch to the overall experience. The boat was clean and well-maintained. The drive to the lake was beautiful as was the lake itself. The popcorn was dee lish.
My wife purchased tix on-line a few days prior to the event and made a mistake, buying tix for Saturday instead of Friday. She called and left a message, hoping to change the date. She told me that the web site said "all sales final" and to plan on going Saturday, saying it would probably take an act of God to get the days switched.
The next day we got a confirmation email and phone call stating that the date was changed. Very cool. |

| It was a great way for my wife and I to spend some quality time with our daughter. The cruise on Canyon Lake was informative and beautiful. Even though the weather was a little cool, the atmosphere on the cruise ship was warm and friendly. We would recommend it to people of any age. |

| even though it was extremely cold and rainy and wet, we still enjoyed the scenic cruise and was thankful for the lower deck that was enclosed so we could still see and stay warm at the same time. Everyone was very friendly and we would do it again |

| Our first visit to Canyon Lake, and we would recommend a cruise on the Dolly without reservation. The crew was most cordial, and the naration by the Captain was most informative. It truly is Arizona's "Junior Grand Canyon." |
