Apache Trail en stoombootcruise van Canyon Lake
Reis langs de schilderachtige Apache Trail aan de voet van de legendarische Superstition Mountains.
Bezoek de spookstad Goldfield, waar verhalen over goud de ronde doen! Hier werd voor het eerst goud gevonden in 1892.
Daarna is het tijd voor een ontspannen cruise met een stoomboot op één van de mooiste woestijnmeren van Arizona: Canyon Lake. Uw cruise aan boord van de stoomboot Dolly geeft u de kans om een glimp op te vangen van dikhoornschapen en witkopzeearenden en u krijgt informatie over de Apaches van uw kapitein.
Na afloop van uw cruise kunt u genieten van een stop in het 'bruisende' stadje Tortilla Flat (inwoners: 6). Deze kleine stad in Arizona is de laatste postkoetshalte langs de Apache Trail. Een pauze voor de lunch vindt plaats bij ofwel Canyon Lake Marina, of Tortilla Flat.
Deze tour vertrekt op donderdag en zaterdag, het hele jaar rond.

We had a great time on this tour. Our tour guide Wayne was one of the most knowledgable guides we have ever had. He literally didn't stop talking from the minute we were picked up until he dropped off at the end of the trip but we had no problem with this as he was very informative. Our first stop was an old western movie set where there is some good photo opportunities. The next stop was a reconstructed ghost town called Goldfield. It had everything from a bar to a gift shop, ice cream parlour and activities. After driving through the valley along some very winding roads our third stop was lunch at Tortilla Flat. There was some great food on offer and you can even try some prickly pear ice cream. The conclusion of the tour was a steamboat cruise on Canyon Lake. You will get to see lots of big horn sheep and eagles on the charming 90 minute narrated tour. We would recommend this tour to anybody that enjoys the Wild West and has an interest in flora and fauna in this area. Be aware that the tour may be cancelled or rescheduled to another day at short notice if there are not enough people on the day you have booked.
We had a very good tour. The curvy roads were haunting but made the trip worthwhile. Tortilla flats is special! Steamboat was okay but limited sights. The bald eagle nest was the highlight.
It was a very pleasant day. Manny was very knowledgeable. Loved the Ghost town that we visited and the beauty of Canyon Lake. Was a long day, but well worth it.
Even though things were running late for some reason, we had plenty of time to see it all and never felt rushed. Our driver, Mike, was great! He took extra time to show us things and was always telling us interesting facts about what we were seeing. He is definitely in his element! We had a wonderful time. Saw a lot of beautiful and interesting things and ate well also! I highly recommend this tour!
I presume Viator sends the tour out to the lowest bidder. We got stuck with Ma and Pa Tours/Redstone and spent the day sweating in a 1990 P.O.S. tour bus with minimal A.C. and a broken P.A. system, so we couldn't hear anything the tour driver said in the back of the bus. It ruined an otherwise pleasant tour and tour guide. I would recommend skipping Viator and going directly to the tour company, so you know who/what you are getting.
Beautiful, serene . The cruise was like a picture book setting.. The guide Mike was knowledgeable, amusing and very pleasant.
The tour guide, Mike, did a very good job. The down side was that we were picked up 2 hours late. We were notified twice that the pickup would be late. This cut our time short at some stops.
