Worth Taking Out of Town Guests

Narration very informative but could be increased and the musical "breaks" subsequently reduced.. We took 12:00pm cruise and had a picnic at a park table along the shore afterwards making it an all day activity. Brochures and ads should advise bringing binoculars to view wildlife and heighten cruise enjoyment.. Otherwise, animals are mere specks at the top of the mountains. If possible, cruise should follow a circular route instead of doubling back on the same path.

Unique and beautiful evening
Sat, Apr 7, 07   5:30 PM mreowser1 Female 40-49 Local Group of Friends
What a great idea and what a gorgeous trip. What more could anyone ask for? We had one of the most memorable evenings complete with a great dinner and sunset while cruising beautiful Canyon Lake. Our friends had a wonderful time too. The trip was informative and the narrative was just right and not overly done. The food was excellent and the music was nice too. We got back to Phoenix by 9pm so it was the perfect length of time. One of the best times ever. Thank you!

My husband and I were celebrating our 1 year anniversary, and he could not have picked a better night in Arizona! It was very relaxing, and romantic with the beautiful scenery and candlelight on the tables. I only wish we could have seen the string of lights a glow. I would absolutely recommend this evening to everyone!

I have recommended this trip to several of my friends already. We loved it even though we went on a holiday weekend. The trip was peaceful and quiet. The captain was knew alot about the Canyon Lake area. The food was great and the boat was clean but the real reason I am recommending this trip to my friends is to get away from the downtown hubbub and bad air.

Great Experience

I booked this event for my husband's birthday. We are orignally both from Wisconsin, where lakes are plentiful. It was really nice to see and be on the water in AZ, where we live now. It was so relaxing and enjoyable. I would highly recommend this to anyone.

My husband and I have been talking about taking this cruise for several years now. My husband suddenly remembered this when, two days before our 11 year wedding anniversary, we realized that we did not have any plans! I went into work on Monday and told everyone who would listen about the trip & dinner. You will be seeing my co-workers there shortly!

Tranquility is closer than you think!

What a great evening! We were suprised that you could find such beautiful water related scenary so close to the metro area of Phoenix. Although the road up is a bit adventursome the trip is worth it. A fun ride with lots to see and a fantastic meal followed by a tranquile cruise through amazing canyon walls. Wait until its dark and the stars come out. Try It - You'll Like It!

Overall good experience

I bought tickets for myself and my parents who were visiting from out of state. They really enjoyed the cruise and liked seeing how we do have some water in the desert. I've been to the end of Canyon Lake before and it didn't seem like we got very far on this cruise, but I know there is only so far you can go in 90 minutes. Our captain was very knowledgeable and taught us some things we didn't know.

The best birthday gift ever!
Fri, Apr 6, 07   5:30 PM winonaking Female 30-39 Local Family Without Children
I scheduled the dinner cruise as a surprise birthday gift for my husband. He loves the lake and was in awe when he realized what I had planned. It was perfect for us, not too many guests on board (Friday) so we had plenty room to move about. It was romantic and fulfilled the purpose I intended. The captain and workers were very customer service oriented and that is something I use to gauge anything I do. The departure of the boat was on time (or a little early to me) however, I arrived at exactly 5:30pm (last minute my child ran a fever and that chaged my plans) and the boat had already departed. The best thing was, they were looking out for us and came back to the dock to get us........everyone on the boat and at the restaurant clapped as we borded the boat. My husband spent the nigt fighting back tears because this was the best birthday he has had (or that I have ever planned). :-) We already have friends that want to go!!!! Thank you for a wonderful experience!!!! Ps. Pie was our desert, and I don't eat pie.....so a little cake next time for me would be great!!!

Enjoyable but could have be much better
Fri, Apr 6, 07   5:30 PM vernesue Female 60-69 International Tourist(s) Couple on a Date
1. For those with food problems, it's helpful for the catering staff to know the contents of what they serve (eg, I could not have the dessert because the ingredients were unknown and there was only the one dessert). 2. It was supposed to be a buffet which to me means that there is a choice of foods. I can't each beef, so asked for two small pieces of chicken - the server was not all polite about it. 3. We were served very soon after boarding. It seems to me it would be better to be able to enjoy the scenery for a bit - while it's still light. Instead, a lot of our time to enjoy the scenery was in the dark (really hard to take pictures). 4. The captain and the gal were friendly and hospitable. The only thing in regard to the captain would be to have more narration (eg, history of and facts about the boat; greater depth of information about the area, its inhabitants, its vegetation; etc.

Nice trip

We had a good time on the boat and enjoyed having lunch at the marina. However I was not aware that buying tickets on line would cost us a extra $2.00 surcharge. You should make that clear on the site. I would buy them there anyway because it is less of a hassle.

The whole family enjoyed the ride. The scenery was beautiful, the boat was comfortable and the narration very informative. We sat on the upper deck in the sun and looked at all of the beauty go by while tanning. Fun.
