| My guest and I missed the voyage - as did six other people behind us on the road - due to slow motorcycle traffic on the last 12 mi. of canyon road who refused to let people pass on the pull-out lanes. We all were approx. 3 mins. late and the Dolly Steamboat had just left the dock. I resent that the vessel owners insist on leaving exactly at 12P instead of beginning boarding at 12P and leaving at 12:15P. Especially knowing that several of their clients have not signed in by 12P. There are issues with traffic, especially on mountain roads that most clients are unfamiliar with. I lost approx. $43.00; the other people lost approx. $160.00. Not good. We tried several times to call, as I was told did the other group, on our cell prior to it ceasing to transmit in the deep canyon. On each occasion there was no answer at the Dolly Steamboat office. I have taken this voyage once before with family and felt then also that the attitiude of the owners was overly rigid and unfriendly in regards to policy structure, and food restrictions without healthy offerings on the vessel. I would consider taking this trip again, because it is the only experience of this kind in the area, but allow excessive lead time to travel up the canyon.

| I wanted to send you some photos to show just how beautiful the cruise was and how much my adult children enjoyed the time on the cruise. My daughter lives in Italy and my son in Scottsdale. If you would like photos, please email me the email address I can send them to. | ||||||

Dolly Steamboat - Highly Recommend

| I have done the Dolly cruise about 6 + times. Whenever I have guests visiting, the Dolly is a MUST DO in Arizona. The cruise is very relaxing and informative, plus Canyon Lake is very beautiful. I never get tired of it and my guests ALWAYS rave about the cruise later to their friends. My visiting friends have come back to Phoenix with their friends and took them on the Dolly! THIS IS A MUST SEE if you are visiting the Phoenix area as it shows the beauty of the Arizona Sonoran Desert. | ||||||

| The breeze was nice, but when it was calm, it got a little hot. I'd recommend going in early spring or later fall when the weather is cooler. | ||||||

boat tour lacked real value

| My husband and I took our parents on the Dolly Steamboat tour of Canyon Lake. It was a busy Saturday which had a negative affect on the tour; lots of jet skis circling the steamboat trying to jump the wake. This, along with the tour guide lacking real insight into the surrounding scenery, made the overall experience a great disappointment. I would recommend saving the money and renting a pontoon boat on Canyon Lake. | ||||||

| As a new resident to Phoenix, my husband and I wanted to find a place to take our family when they came out from Ohio and Calf. My new friends at work recommended Canyon Lake boat tour...We checked on line, thought it would be great and booked for 5 adults and 1 child which was free...I liked that very much! We drove out to check it all out before everyone got here and loved the drive and hairpin turns to the canyon...We are explorers! Found everything...Got a beer in the resturant, went to Toritta Flats got an ice cream cone and earrings...went back home! Then when the family came we did it all over again...the boat ride was wonderful, the captain was just great with all the history, loved the music...popcorn and snacks very reasonable in price...Free water was a very nice thing to have...Got back, we all went into the resturant and ate great food and ICE COLD beer...went back to the FLATS and all got prickly pear cactus ice cream...and drove home....Our children, their wives and our 4 year old granddaughter had a great time....Would tell anyone to buy tickets and do this tour.... Thanks so much Marci and Joe Williams | ||||||

| We had a nice time, although it was a bit long, and it was pretty hot outside. When we tried to find a seat inside for some shade, many tables for 4 were occupied by 2 and therefore, "taken". We didn't feel it was right to intrude on the other passengers. The narration was wonderful. I've lived in this part of Arizona for over 10 years, enjoyed many of its lakes, and the information about Canyon Lake, it's geography and wildlife was very interesting . Thoroughly enjoyable. I thought the price was a little high, tho. | ||||||

Great Time....

| This is the third time we have taken out of town visotors on the Boat.... It is always great scenery and a nice showcase of Arizona. However, I have to say we had four kids with us from the ages of 8 through 12 and they had a terrible time. They had to where lifevests the enitire time and they were sweating like stuck pigs!! so between the kids complaining and us explaining why.... I do not think we will go back again until the kids are old enough not to wear those heavy lifepreservers. | ||||||

| I thought that the dolly steamboat cruise was a great actiivity. It provides beautiful scenery, and can be very romantic. I wasn't however to pleased with the fact that when purchasing your ticket on Zerve they ask for additional comments. I wrote that it was my fiance's birthday. On the cruise the captain announced a birthday, that of course was not my fiance. I have no idea why they have you write additional comments, if they are not going to review them. | ||||||

| My fiancee and I took his mother out on the cruise for Mother's Day and I have to say all 3 of us enjoyed it very much. Very relaxing, beautiful scenery, the narration of the scenery was in great detail and the food that they served on the dinner cruise was excellent. We all look forward to doing it again very soon!! | ||||||
