| I do not need all this space , it was a wonderful, amazing Boat ride. I am a native of Tucson but have not lived here for 40 years, but now my husband and I are back and hope to buy a home here.
I can almost promise that everyone that comes to visit us will go on the Dolly. Your Captain was absolutly great, his description of everything was great.

| Nice easy ride through the canyon. Music was cheesy and a bit loud but the narrator wasn't annoying and didn't talk the whole time, which was a plus. Don't recommend for toddlers, as the ones on our cruise got bored and fussy. Their screaming really kind of spoiled the peace of the trip towards the end. If you're looking for a relaxing ride, slowly floating through a canyon, then this is a trip for you. Definitely bring water if hot and highly recommend purchasing reservations as you might not get on without them. |

| Our enjoyment was reduced due to behavior of an obnoxious group of people on the top deck. |

| It was great but I have a few suggestions. The person who took our tickets was about 10 minutes late opening the ticket booth so folks standing in line were quite irritated which didn't make a good start to the program. Also the main cabin got very messy with popcorn and junk all over tables and the floor. People should pick up their messes but when they don't, your stewards should keep doing so. It got pretty messy by the bathrooms on the floor in front. Also, the caption should talk into the mircrophone louder as it was hard to hear at times and sometimes I couldn't hear him at all.
I like the beautiful setting around the lake and that you take advantage of that with the boat ride is a real treat. I also like that you let people on the boat in groups so there isn't a mad rush to get a good seat.
Thanks!! I'll be back. |

| Hello,
This is our third trip on the Dolly Boat ride. Each time we have out of town guests, this is a "things to do" with them... we truly enjoy the scenery, the host/captain etc. |

A Relaxed Sunday Cruise

| Taking a cruise of Canyon Lake, aboard the Dolly Steamboat , on a cool afternoon in the early fall, followed by some chili and beer at Tortilla Flat afterwards, was, simply , a very relaxed way to spend a Sunday afternoon. The employees were all friendly and laid back, the refreshment prices were reasonable, and the view was wonderful. This is a good day trip for locals or tourists, families, couples, or individuals. It won't knock your socks off, but that's o.k., because, as relaxed a trip as it is, you needn't be wearing any to begin with. |

| Although I wouldn't recommend this for families with very young, very active children, our family thoroughly enjoyed it. Our 10 and 13 year old daughters enjoyed the cruise as did their parents. It was a beautiful day and a relaxing, scenic way to see a different aspect of Arizona. The drive on the Apache Trail to get to the Dolly is also quite interesting and scenic-- especially for flatlanders like us. |
