Relaxing and Beautiful

| 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! | ||||||

WHAT A BEAUTIFUL CRUISE!

| 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. | ||||||

A Glimpse of Nature

| 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! | ||||||

relaxing trip

| This trip was very enjoyable and also informative. We all had a great time. The only suggestion that I would have is that it was more wheelchair friendly. The parking for handicap is a difficult one going up hill. The accessiblility for the wheel chair was a challenge. The trip itself was wonderful and we will do it again. Thanks | ||||||

BUGS

| Although, the cruise was very beautiful the thing that killed it for me was the swarms and swarms of green flying bugs everywhere on the boat, inside and outside and atleast 4 big spiders. I was repulsed to stay on the paddleboat, but paid the non refundable ticket prices for 4 so decided to tough it out. The guy in charge said once we started moving the bugs would go away, NOT TRUE. It was absolutely nasty. | ||||||

Relaxing Cruise

| Although the time was a bit long for our grandchildren (ages 3,6,9) my husband and I totally enjoyed the scenic journey! I told the cruise guide that it was more relaxing than a massage and a lot less expensive!! The guide was very informative and had interesting humor. We will return again and again..it is a wonderful, easely accessable day trip showing off our beautiful state. | ||||||

I bet we would have loved if...

| we made the boat. We got lost and got to the parking lot just as the boat was departing. Just like the website says... NO REFUNDS. I was taking my 2 kids and 2 friends visiting from NJ to see AZ's lakes in all it's awe. Instead I spent hours driving and it costing me lots of wasted time, the cost of the boat tix, an expensive lunch at the restaurant there and $$$ for a pontoon. | ||||||

| My 8 year old son and I decided to do something fun before he went back to school this year. I surprised him on a Paddleboat Cruise with Desert Belle. He really enjoyed it (as did I). The "captain" did a wonderful job narrating and the music that was played during the cruise was very pleasant (not too loud). The captain even had his picture taken with my son afterwards! The scenary was breath-taking and I took some "postcard worthy" pictures with my camera. I'm planning on getting quite a few pictures developed in a larger size and hanging them on my wall! I would recommend this trip highly! | ||||||

| My family and I have cruised on the Desert Belle three times in the last few years. Christmas break was our favorite ride; weekday cruises aren't too crowded, the weather is perfect for a light jacket and hot cup of coco, and Saguaro Lake is especially peaceful. We are not boaters, so this is a great way to be able to enjoy the lake. Every time we have enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere; I've never seen an unhappy passenger. The marina restaurant has excellent food and is a fun place to wrap up the day. | ||||||

| I found this on the internet looking for something to do and thought we would give it a try. We were able to get tickets for the same day and drove just an hour to get there. The scenery was wonderful, some very picturesque. It turned out to be a very informative but calm and relaxing too. We would definitely recommend it and would also do it again ourselves. | ||||||
