We have done this tour three times and always enjoy the trip. There are many beautiful vistas and a lot to see. The only drawback is that each time we have taken the tour it has been less informative each time. Maybe we were spoiled on the first tour but the captain was extremely knowledgeable and very informative. Each time since there has been new captains and they haven't been as well informed. The tour is still worth doing for the sites. |

This is our second trip on the Desert Belle. We brought relatives from out of state to see the desert from a different perspective. It always amazies out of state guests when they see the size and beauty of the lake. The information provided during the cruise is interesting without being boring. A must see!!!! |

had a very nice time |

the trip was great - the view was great - the weather was great - it would have been good to have been able to hear the gentleman telling us about the sites - his voice was drowned out - they had music on part of the time but it was the same 2 songs that played several times - it was nice they had beverages available for such a decent price. |

I really enjoyed the boat ride. As a local who is born and raised in mesa arizona, i still felt as if i learned things that i never knew before such as mountain formations and information about the lake itself. But for futrue referances, i think more information about arizona and the desert and the sorounding areas would be greatly accepted. The information i recieved was very accurate and informative-but MORE information would be better!! thank you again and i have already reccomended your services to other family and friends!! thanks again, Keri Wallace |

It was a great event to take out of town friends on. They got to see more of the beauty of Arizona and enjoy a relaxing time on the boat and even learn a bit about that area. We were fortunate enough to see two bald eagles, which was an added bonus to the trip. I will definitely be bringing future visitors on this trip. The price is very reasonable and I love that you can bring beverages and snacks on board - definitely a plus if you have kids with you! We had a great time and I will be recommending it to my friends that live here too! |

I have to admit, after taking a "cruise" in another of our local lakes, I was really hesitant about this one. The other one wasn't worth the drive! What a wonderful, relaxing, beautiful trip this cruise turned out to be. Not only was it more than worth the drive, the price was so reasonable.
The scenery was fantastic, the crew was great, and we topped off our afternoon with a delicious lunch in the restaurant overlooking the lake. Our "boring" Saturday turned out to be the best this summer.
I would, and already have, recommended this cruise to my family and several friends. We all hope to see you again real soon.
Thank you so very much for a wonderful time! |

My wife and I live in Scottsdale and decided to take a tour of Saguaro Lake on board the Desert Belle Boat Ride since Saguaro Lake is the closest lake to us. We are originally from Massachusetts where you have quite a few lakes and seaside places to go to during the weekends. Having a tour of Saguaro Lake was very enjoyable. We saw some wildlife, saw cliff jumpers jumping of cliffs, off road trails accessible by SUVs and two camp sites primarily accessible by boat. Living in the desert and getting to see interesting rock formation and the contrast of water/desert was cool. The captain of the boat was very knowledgeable and nice. I would recommend this tour. |

I visited with my 3 grandchildren from PA. The scenery at Lake Saguaro was just beautiful even though the AZ summer heat was at its height. The information provided by the "skipper" was informative and interesting. The marsh gnats were unbearable but the trip was still fun! Two of our troop were missing because of a medical emergency and I thought my pre-payment was just forfeited but the"skipper" was kind enough to give us 2 replacement tickets for future use which we'll do in Nov. when we are expecting more visitors!! This act was very much appreciated and is rare in this day. Thanks for an enjoyable and memorable day!!! |

We enjoyed the tour boat ride and would not only recommend it, but would go again... at a different time of year!!! For rides during monsoon season, perhaps refreshments could be half price and MUCH MORE plentiful!! Or maybe some mosquito netting could be used to wrap the boat in!
Keep up the good work! |
