T O M did a great job, but the best part was seeing the big horn sheep. We will be back for a dinner cruise. Good time. Nancy & Gordy
Peaceful ride on the lake Narrated Nature Cruise on Canyon Lake

Sure it was hot (Phoenix in July) and muggy (monsoon season, 70% humidity), but the trip around the lake was quite relaxing. Each turn brought new and interesting sights. There wasn't much wildlife visible (they didn't like the heat and humidity either), but no matter, my wife and I enjoyed ourselves. The captain was a fine narrator as well, adding to the ambiance. Next time we're in the area we'll probably take the dinner cruise for a longer and perhaps more romantic tour.
A MUST Twilight Dinner Cruise on Canyon Lake

After living in Arizona for almost 14 years, my husband and I have not seen much of the state. The Dolly cruise was our first visit to Canyon Lake and we were so impressed with the area! The cruise was very nice, good food, and very friendly crew. This is "A MUST" if you are entertaining company from out of State. I only wish I had known about it years ago - we recently had visitors from Augusta, Georgia and we definitely would have taken them on this cruise. It's great.

My wife and I recently moved here from Ohio and this boat tour was the highlight of the time we have spent here so far. The night was beautiful and the food was delicious and we are already planning another Saturday night cruise. The captain was great and gave us a great ride and a lot of interesting sights. Loved it.

A little pricey for what was delivered Narrated Nature Cruise on Canyon Lake

The day was very hot (100+), but that is not the fault of the tour providers. The lake is beautiful and the sites are interesting. The best site was the embedded pertified logs in the cliff. Otherwise, you're looking at rock formations (similar to cloud formations), camp sites, dry waterfall stains, cactus and oh yeah, lots and lots of jet skis and ski boats. The Captian was very knowledgable and funny. The first mate was also nice and helpful. The boat is not truly paddle wheel driven, but rather a standard inboard diesel with some sticks cobbled out the back that look like a paddle wheel. I don't think I will rush back out to take my out-of-state visitors, but I can now check off the Dolly Cruise from my "Things to Do While on the Earth" list. Maybe if I went when the temps weren't so opressive I'd have written a more enthusiastic review.

It was a fun trip. We were looking for something different to do. The astronomy cruise was informative and fun. I'd do this again, but will wait till later in the season when it cools down some.
Fabulous dining and relaxation evening! Twilight Dinner Cruise on Canyon Lake

The weather was very hot/humid! It's Arizona! The food was was extremely edible and very tasty! The ride was very pleasant and the staff were in full humor and very friendly. The canyon cliffs were painted with a gorgeous sunset The big horn sheep were in great form on the top of the cliffs. Dr. Sky presented excellent information regarding the night sky.
Fun, but not enough open space Twilight Dinner Cruise on Canyon Lake

A group of 10 of us went on to celebrate my husbands birthday. It was fun, the staff was nice, the food was good, unfortunately it was very hot and humid! Though we were seated on the upper deck, we were under cover and since we took the astronomy cruise the cover did hinder the experience. Dr. Sky was very informative, but it is quite soft spoken and with any conversation it was difficult to hear it all. To do it again, I would do it with a smaller group, because the tables are only big enough for 6 people, preferably in Spring or Fall and only if I can purchase the tickets early enough to be sure to get the upper deck, open air seating. There needs to be more open air availability.

We were delighted with the entire cruise. It was fun and informative and just a great day to be on the water and enjoy all that Mother Nature can provide. I highly recommend it to anyone in the Phoenox Metro area.
Very Enjoyable Narrated Nature Cruise on Canyon Lake

The trip was great in itself. The boat was clean, the staff was excellent. Capt. Tom was great. I would recommend it as a very fun and exciting day event. The only draw back was the flies. Also, the waiting area. Why don't you put fans in that area (that would help the fly problem). It was very warm just sitting there and I don't think there was not a person fanning themselves. No air movement. The flies are hard to control but maybe a good spray about 2 hrs before the first cruise might help. I know we went in August and it many not be the same for the other months and I am sure it is not but for the summer months these little suggestions might help future passengers enjoy their day alot better. Also. the restaurant had lots of flies inside and we killed about 6 ourselves. Very uncomfortable with flies flying around and that is why we did not order a breakfast or lunch just french fries. We both could keep the flies off the fries with only one plate to watch. Also, maybe open earlier around 9am or even 10am. Again, maybe just for the summer to get people out of the heat. There were flies on the boat too, so maybe spray that too about 2 hrs. before sail. I am fully aware that this is going to be a hard situation to control but if you take the advice of the fans and the restaurant that would be a good start to improve your event. Cause I would tell people of these problems so they would be aware of it. All in all it was alot of fun. Thank you for a friendly staff and a great Capt. Tom. So that is it from me

Beautifull scenery. Saw a few mountain goats.It was very hot out and the boat moved too slow. Was expecting more information on the Superstition mountains. Maybe some history on the apache trail also. the Captain had a good sense of humor.the price was reasonable.Would recomend if you like to go of the beaten path.
