| I've lived in the Valley for over 18 yrs & never knew this beautiful place existed so close to me, it took a visit from a friend from out of town to know about it....
WHAT A WONDERFUL WAY TO TOUR THE CANYON
THIS WILL NOW BE ON OUR LIST OF PLACES TO TAKE OUR OUT OF TOWN GUESTS
NEXT TIME WE PLAN TO DO THE DINNER CRUISE
They say on web site you can bring bottle water, but they don't mention there is beverages & snacks available on board, so take a little extra cash in case you get the munchies |

| This was a great trip to take. One of my friends said that she might have just driven into the lake, looked and left. She was really happy that I had arranged for the trip. Do to our own fault, we sat in the back of the boat and it was hard to hear the narrator. Fully recommend that you get there early so you can get either a top level seating or a front seating. The guid took time to point our interests and look for wildlife that we probably would not have spotted. |

| We enjoyed this nature cruise very much. The weather was perfect, not too cool, and not too hot. Looks like November is a good time to go. The cruise was relaxing, and the scenery was great. I would love to go again and try the dinner cruise at night! This is a good trip for everyone of all ages. |

| The one thing i did not like and will probably be the reason we don't do it again i had tickets that i bought in advance but walk ons were able to go on board as special needs, so i wound up with a lousy location, this should be seating like the dinner cruise does, reserved so you get a good spot . |

Very nice cruise except for the speaker sound.

| I took this cruise for a date that I planned for my girlfriend. We both love nature and doing activities outside so this was a perfect get away for an afternoon. The drive was very nice only about an hour and a half from downtown phoenix. Canyon Lake and its surrounding were breath-taking and the whole place was beautiful. I only had a few complaints throughout the trip. One being the lines and waiting to get your boarding pass. It didn't take very long but other people who had come that day as walk ons got to recieve their passes before others there who are made reservations, thus getting to board sooner. In the end it didn't make much of a difference because I still got the spot on the Dolly that I wanted. The cruise was a very smooth ride and road up very close to the sides of mountains so that you could see every little detail. The only other problem was not the narration but the speaker quality. From where I was seated and moving around at, which was the lower level back near the engine, you couldn't make out what he was saying or you would have to get very close to the speakers. This wasn't an issue inside whenever I went in but outside there was no point in trying to listen to it. Besides these small things this trip was wonderful and I would highly recemmend it, |

| This is a very relaxed way to show visitors to our incredibly diverse state, some of the natural beauty we have here in Arizona. |

| My husband and I live here in Arizona and wanted to do something special with our family visiting from New Jersey. I thought the Dolly Steamboat would be a great way to see the beautiful mountains from a different view. We were 4 adults and 2 children (ages 6 & 11). We all absolutely loved it! We would highly recommend this Nature Cruise to everyone. We took this cruise on Friday 11/7 at 2pm and the Captain & staff were wonderful....especially to the kids! Thank you for a memorable afternoon. |

| This cruise is great! The 90 minutes goes by really fast. The boat is clean, the crew is nice, the captain is funny and the views are fabulous. Great for older families, seniors and group outings. A big thumbs up! |
