| 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.

| The views on Saguaro Lake were wonderful and it was a perfect day. We saw many birds including bald eagles, blue herons and koots. Our guide was very knowledgable and we were happy we brought our out of town guests to see a wonderful spot in Az. |

| We had an early and leisurly lunch at the Restaurant. The food was good, service excellent and the view spectacular.
The boat tour left on time. The narration on the tour was informative and the scenery was outstanding. We saw three bald eagles on the way and many different birds and wild life which were fully described by the Captain during the trip. I have enjoyed this trip previously and my friend was seeing it for the first time. We both fully enjoyed the hour and one half tour. We both highly recommend it to anyone. |

| We all found this cruise to be so interesting and relaxing. A wonderful narration by Brent through out the cruise. Much knowledge was shared. The variety of scenery was outstanding. We really had no clue of the different areas and habitats right under our nose. Am positive we will be taking this cruise over and over many times. Kelly, at the ticket booth, was equally as friendly and helpful as Brent. Everyone aboard was treated with the sighting of three bald eagles. The boat was stopped so everyone was able to get wonderful pictures throughout our cruise. Would we recommend this adventure to others? You bet your boots we would. Brent and Kelly, Thank You so much for a wonderful afternoon. |

| My mom and 3 sisiters were visiting from Michigan. My mother can only walk short distances so uses a wheel chair. The DesertBelle and the resturant at the Saguaro Lake marina is fully accessable. We had lunch at the resturant and then took the cruise. It was a very enjoyable trip. You can bring your own snacks and refreshments ( not sure about alcohol) in a cooler. There is a restroom and they have pop (soda)and water available for purchase on board. The scenery was beautiful and the captain informative. A very enjoyable afternoon. At a very reasonable price. |

| We expected to see wildlife and saw none. In addition we could not hear the captain/narrators discussion due to the poor sound system. |

| It was easy to obtain tickets on the internet. We liked that.
The boat was a perfect size... not too large, not too small.
The captain was well informed, casual, funny and very nice.
We have taken this ride before and we will again when we have guest in town. |
