Highly recommend this tour. We enjoyed learning the history of the dam and the surrounding area. It was nice to see the dam from the bridge and then to actually walk across. Nice few hour break from the hustle and bustle of the Strip.

Chris gave us so much information about the area and the dam which we would not have known if we went on our own.

Def recommend the tour! One thing I’m realizing about traveling is that sometimes the places between the main destination end up being the part you remember most. It was cool to drive through Boulder City, seeing Lake Mead, and the Hoover Dam. This really made me appreciate the level of engineering behind it even more.

Pam was a wonderful and knowledgeable guide. Her local knowledge really helped make this trip a memorable and interesting one. The dam is incredible and it was nice to take in Boulder City and lake Mead along the way too.

Good tour guide. Very knowledgeable and personable and not overly talkative. Only disappointment which I guess I missed was the itinerary/photos showed the colorful rocks as a site to visit however we didn’t get to see. Upon checking back the booking, it said it was an additional fee however there was no option to select it. Overall great tour, I forgot about the rocks until I reached back to my hotel lol
