Relatives from Europe
Thu, Sep 3  12:00 PM janetann Female 70+ Local Family Without Children
We had 3 generations of European Relatives with us and they all enjoyed the very nice day, good weather, nice scenry, very relaxing and we saw one Big Horn Sheep. Enjoyed lunch at Tortilla Flats prior to boarding, then a trip through Goldfield, old mining town with ice cream and then pizza at Organ Stop Pizza, Mesa, with all the wonderful music. A very nice day.

Great Trip for Visitors

We often take out of town guest for the Dolly Boat ride at the Canyon. Always an excellent trip, narration is excellent and crew accommodating. Prefer to have visitors take the tour in the fall and spring, but even the extreme heat the last time we took the trip was worth the trip.

We had some friends from back East (New York) visiting us for an extended weekend. While looking into things to do that wouldn't be too expensive or hard to get to, my husband found your website. We are relatively new to Arizona (only here 2 yrs) so this was a new experience for us as well. We had a great time! Your crew was fun and very attentive. The narrator had a lilting, sing-song style of speaking which we found a little amusing but he did a great job and we learned quite a bit along with enjoying the trivia that he told us. We are expecting more New York visitors the end of the month and we are thinking of doing the dinner cruise this time. Even if we don't do the dinner cruise, we will definitely do one of the day time cruises again. Thanks!!!

My friend and I thoroughly enjoyed this trip- from the time of booking till beyond landing back on terra firma..... The staff are all very courteous, safety-conscious, helpful and pleasant. The cruise ship it self was clean, the trip was smooth and a fabulous experience. the scenery is picturesque and the food was tasty...I cannot fault this trip... well worth the drive out to the lake....you will not be disappointed.

We entered the boat and gaot a very good seat section, just in front. The trip was really great, and everybody enjoyed it: The lake, the sightseeing, the service, the dinner - and last but not least the narrations of "El Capitan" Juergen Baer

Nice relaxing ride
Sat, Aug 29  12:00 PM mmshaw Male 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
We particularly enjoyed the winding road that leads to the lake. Very European in nature. The crew was very cordial, friendly and knowledgeable about the local area. The ride is very slow but enjoyed the landscape and just relaxing. We were hoping to see some big horn sheep as advertised but found out that it was too hot for them to be out and about on the day that we were there. This was on Aug. 29, 2009. So, a little disappointed but still enjoyed the ride. If you have small children you will have to work to keep them from getting a little bored. We had our 8 year old grandson and his dad with us. He did pretty well but I needed to show some excitement about the fauna and rock formations from time to time to keep him from getting too bored. He really wanted to be on one of the wave runners that were running about. He did enjoy the trip though.

Staff was very helpful. Loved the woman staffing the snack booth. She had a water mister and was a life saver! Loved how the Dolly was redone, loved the restroom and free ice water! And air next year yea you will definitly see us again and again and again. No charge for my 2 year old grandson was a great bonus! Keep up the good work.

affordable fun afternoon

My wife and I took the 1 1/2 hr Narrated Nature Cruise on Canyon Lake halfway through our holidays. We have been to Arizona several times and almost always end up taking the trek through the Superstition Mountains. The drive is always spectacular, but this time we decided on a whim to add the cruise. What an unexpected gem we found. I am sure we will become regulars when we retire. We had a delightful time. It was quite warm that day but there was usually a breeze blowing over the boat. The Captain was well informed on the area and wildlife, pointed out many interesting things AND played great music all the way through the ride. I would recommend this cruise to anyone who wants a scenic drive and a relaxing tour of a beautiful lake.

to whom this may concern...the canyon lake boat trip my husband and i took on the 22 nd of august 2009 at 12 noon was very nice and picturesque...the weather was great and the sites were beautiful...but i do have one complaint as my husband and i were boarding the dolly boat...the boats driver was a little bit to forward with me as all we asked him was where was the nicest place to sit being it was our first ride...his answer?...was " well honey for you at my house with a margheretta sitting by my pool and dont bring him"...he was referring to my husband of course and we were both taken back by his rude and very forward comment...i felt embarrased for myself but truly more for my husband whom after we took a seat wanted to address the guy but i told him lets please enjoy the day...i too felt very uncomfortable as the boat took off for the ride...on any other day i may have told this guy off and on any other day my husband would have done the same or more!...im sure he thought he was being funny, but in no way was he funny or cute at all...it was more rude and ecotistical and disrespectful and although the afternoon boat ride was very nice the driver was a jerk and we would not take the cruise again unless someone else was driving...i hope this guy thinks before he throws those kind of sexist comments around because the next couple he does it to, he may not be as lucky not get into it with someone or possibly a good verbal lashing!...we were not there to hear that kind of thing...we were there to enjoy the day and the boat ride. i asked him a very simple question and that was his answer....hope someone can get this message across to him...thank you so very much for listening...gayle and john...mesa az .

My husband and I had a guest from out of state. My husband is disabled and it was quite convenient to get him and the wheelchair onto the boat. We would definitely recommend this to our friends and go again.

My boyfriend and I decided to make this our last date before I returned to the U of A and he remained in Phoenix. It was an awesome decision. Very romantic! Nice people, excellent staff, good food and the scenery was breath taking. I also normally get sick on any kinda of boat, but I did not get sick on the dolly. I would highly recommend this to anyone.

Dolley Steamboat
Sat, Aug 15  6:00 PM Brittan Female Under 20 Local Couple on a Date
It was a good experience. Everyone was very friendly, the food was great, and the scenary was absolutly beautiful. Me and my boyfriend were deffinatly the youngest couple on the boat. If you're looking for a lot of fun and excitement, do something else. But if you just want to relax and enjoy the beautiful lake, then this is a beautiful thing to do. I loved it, i'd deffinatly do it again.
