We all really enjoyed the cruise. It was a nice sunny day, very relaxing and the area is beautiful. The captain was very knowledgeable and his narration was interesting. I would definitely take my friends who come to visit on this cruise. Don't forget your camera! |

The lake cruise was a very enjoyable experience. The scenary breath taking! The captain provided an excellent overview on the history of the lake and as we cruised, pointed out lake wild life, plants, trees and catcus, as well as describing the rock formations and canyons we were seeing. We purchased a CD the captain had made of the lake tour and are enjoying the recap of our cruise back in Iowa where it is revoltingly cold right now!!!! |

In discussions after our activity there was general agreement that the Captain/Narrator was knowledgeable, articulate and effective in providing information about the wildlife, flora and general characteristics of the area. We had a miserable day and all were convonced it would not be a pleasant experience but were surprised that all of that was overcome by the strength of the individuals involved. |

On this rainy , cold day, one would think the last thing you would want would be a float on the lake...Our Captain cleared the day with a delightful monolog that warmed our thoughts with history and even eagle sightings. It was well worth alittle rain and wind to be there with friends and the Good Captain.... |
|
I would do it again |

During the activity I was thinking of all the poeple I know who would enjoy this and plan on telling them about it. It is a great day trip if you live in the Valley. |

The tour was a very enjoyable way to spend an afternoon. It is very informal, just the right length, and gives a very good feel for Saguaro Lake and the area. The captain provides many interesting historical tidbits and some points of interest about the terrain, flora and fauna of the area. The information is fairly basic, but a good introduction (particularly for those new to the Sonoran Desert). We saw several herons and a bald eagle. Weather was windy and the first few minutes were fairly choppy, but the water was calm once back in the canyons. |

More fun than expected |

From the friendly ticket taker to chatty captain of the boat it was a nice day for a family of four generations. The music was fun too. |

Family friendly trip on Saguaro Lake |

As grandparents we are always looking for places and ways to interest our grandkids in the beauty and special things in Arizona. Both boys, ages 5 & 8, very much enjoyed our trip on the Desert Belle. The Captain's commentary was appreciated. He gave enough information without talking constantly. My husband and I have wanted to take the trip but never had. We plan to do it again. Will encourage others to take the trip. Thank you. |

Well worth it!!! |

I definitely recommend this paddle boat cruise for out of town visitors and Arizonans alike. It's a great way to get out and see the Arizona landscape and wildlife while relaxing on a cruise. I would do it again. |
