Fun short ride

The Captain was very informative. The scenery was beautiful. The chairs, not so comfortable but the breeze made the hot temperature bearable. I would do it again!

very picturesque....well worth it

of all my trips to Arizona, i had never seen water. so my sister and I decided that our small group would do a lake tour on Saguaro Lake in Mesa, not far from Phoenix, our home base. it was easy to get to by highway/route. even the area surrounding the lake was beautiful as we waited for our paddleboat. the lake was so amazing as it continued to open up into many inlets, making for an interesting and yet relaxing 90 min tour. my only disappointment was not seeing any animals living within the mountains as our tourguide told us to keep our eyes opened for them. we did see a few birds as well as many boaters out on the water that day. overall, I highly recommend this tour and i may even do it again.

Great narrated tour - very informative

We really enjoyed the tour - our first time to Saguaro Lake. We had 2 teens with us and they liked it as well. We have lived in the Southwest for 6 years and would return again, especially with visitors. We saw a bald eagle and other birds. Would recommend it for a charter with a group - that way you could have more room and walk around. walk around a bit, with a bit more room.

A Relaxing Ride

This is our 2nd time on the Desert Belle. The drive is scenic for our out of town family and we love to show them another side of Arizona. Everyone always says they want to relax in the Arizona "sun" and this is the way to go. This trip we sat in the front row - best view by far. Recommend sun screen - all four of us did get alittle sun-burned because we missed a few "spots". The Captain is a pleasant fellow and is very knowledgeable of the area. Bring your binoculars or just sit back and relax. I was fine with the 90 minute ride, but the other three would have preferred to not sit quite that long. The chairs are your typical folding style and I think if you brought along a boat cushion you would have more comfort. We were looking forward to eating at the restaurant that is "right there". You have to climb quite a few stairs from the water side. (go around to the side for easier access) Our first visit was a pleasant one. Can't beat the outside patio view. This time the restaurant was not crowded but the service was very slow and they must have changed their style of food to 0% Trans Fat - the Fish n Chips and Onion Rings had that terrible after taste and were definetly missing that "fat" flavor that is necessary to all fried foods. Everyone has their own particular taste buds - so try it - the view is wonderful.

Beautiful Relaxing Trip

We recently took a trip on the Desert Belle Paddleboat and enjoyed it very much. This was actually our 3rd time on the Desert Belle but have not taken the cruise in about 6 years, so this was very interesting for us. The views are wonderful and the captain was very informative with giving us a lot of information. We would definitely do it again and would most definitely take friends with us.

A Gem in the Desert

Saguaro Lake was beautiful. It was hard to believe that we were in the desert. The Desert Belle was a great experience and good value for the money. Thanks, Captain!

We took my German cousins on this cruise and they too thought is was great. I thought it was fun to show them a lake in the desert, their first visit to Arizona and the U. S. . They fell in love with the desert and it's many wonders.

Fortunatly the weather was gorgeous. We had never been on this boat ride and we took a friend visiting from Calif. The captain was very knowledgeable and we enjoyed the lesson he gave us about the area.

Excellent value and a pleasant afternoon

Almost did not go because the tickets are not only NONREFUNDABLE, but you can't even reschedule - this is costing you customers! You really need to review this policy.
