I came with a group aged from mid-50's to low-80's. They all enjoyed it. The captain was absolutely wonderful, as was his wife (who works with him). Very informative, great sense of humor, and very accomodating. I take many of my winter visitors to the boat and so far everyone i've taken there has had a wonderful time. And, since I'm a local I have lots of winter visitors! Will continue to bring folks there......... |

I took my 3 year old grand daughter for her first time ever "cruise" we both really enjoyed it. We sat in the back on the left side of the boat, which was not very good for taking pictures but perfect for interacting with a little one. The captain has a photo Cd
available to buy on board, if you want pictures of the beautiful landscapes you'll see!
I will take the Desert Belle Paddleboat Cruise again but this time will go without the little one so I can just sit back listen to the captain's narration and enjoy the views.
I can recommend this cruise for young and old alike. |

It was a perfect afternoon and Saguaro Lake was beautiful.
Our Captain gave us lots of history and information about the flora and fauna of the area.
It is a wonderful 90 minutes to acquaint you and your family or friends with the local area.
We enjoyed it tremendously and would highly recommend the tour and buying the tickets through Zerve. |

Great Trip! |

We enjoyed our afternoon tremendously. We had lunch on the patio and were entertained by the birds. Our tour guide was really well versed on the birds and eco system. The photo ops where great, I got some really good pics. I will recomend the Desert Belle quit highly. also will do again. No complaints at all,.Thank you for a wonderful afternoon. |

The paddleboat trip was an experience that should not be missed. Not only was the scenery extraordinary, but the Captain of the boat was very knowledgeable and kept a running monologue of the history and nature of Lake Saguaro. My group of six people was pleasantly surprised at what a wonderful trip this turned out to be. It is a hidden secret that should not be overlooked if travelling to this area. We were staying outside of Phoenix and it was an easy day trip.
I had read about Lake Saguaro in an advertisement in an Arizona magazine and was lucky to be able to go. It was also easy to prepurchase the tickets through the website.
My family group was travelling from the East coast and all of us were duly impressed with the trip as well as the friendliness of the staff. As previously mentioned, all of us would highly recommend this trip and if ever in this area again, we all agreed, we would take this paddleboat excursion again. Marion B. |

My husband and myself have traveled to Hawaii and New zealand in the past few years and have gone on several boat tours etc.. This by far rates as one of the best for the dollar . Very relaxing with breathtaking views of the mountains , also experienced the beauty of a pair of eagles; awesome! Would recommend to anyone visiting the area! |
|
The geology of the area very impressive. |
