Chris was our tour guide he was knowledgeable and helpful. He answered all questions with a dam good sense of humor. Would tour again. Note the text message doesn’t describe the van accurately so keep an eye out for a Mercedes van at the pick up point.

We booked a Hoover Dam tour and it was absolutely worth it — mostly because our guide, Pam, was outstanding. She’s a local, incredibly knowledgeable, and has a way of mixing facts with stories so you actually remember what you’re hearing. She shared a lot of practical, relevant info for Las Vegas tourists (not just random trivia), and we walked away understanding the Dam’s history, engineering significance, and the very real water issues tied to it today. You can tell she cares about the future of water conservation and isn’t just “going through the motions.” Strong recommendation.

Great trip with a a very knowledgeable guide, Chris. He covered not just the history and background to the dam but also Las Vegas and the surrounding area.

The tour was a perfect way to kick off our weekend. Some beautiful sights, a lot of great knowledge shared and a very accommodating tour guide. Bob was friendly, personable and approachable. The cost of the tour is very reasonable to all you get, the small group experience, and the timeframe of the tour. Highly recommend.

Our guide Chris was excellent in providing lots of interesting details not only of the Hoover dam and surrounding cities, but also fun details of things to do on the strip,

We did the 8;00 a.m. tour, which is a great time to go. Still cool and on this sunny morning the sun is in a great position for photography. Our driver Chis is also the tour guide. He was very informative as we drove to reach the dam and sent us off to view at our own pace. The spotless Mercedes van picked us up and dropped us off at The Paris, which is close to our hotel. It's a great trip if you have limited time and don't feel like driving. Highly recommend!

our guide was absolutely terrific and we found the experience to be excellent. Our only problem was with Viator - they promised that our pickup place would be at our hotel when in fact we had to take a taxi to the pickup place and we didn't find this out until the evening before. We chose this tour because the pickup place was convenient.
