What to expect

1

Boulder City

Your small-group tour starts with pick up from your Las Vegas Strip or downtown hotel at approximately 8am. Head out with your certified interpretive guide on a tour that includes an extended Exterior tour of the Dam, walk across the dam into Arizona, the new Hoover Dam Bridge which stands 900 feet above the Colorado River. The views from the top of the Dam as well as the bridge are truly breathtaking.

2

Hoover Dam

Located in Black Canyon on the Colorado River, the Hoover Dam was once the largest dam in the world. It is an outstanding achievement, noteworthy not only for its enormous dimensions, complex design and intricate construction, but also for its illustration of mans outstanding ability to overcome the desert's summer sun, the vagaries of a treacherous river and the extreme hazards of great heights on the chasm's sheer walls. The building of the dam also created Lake Mead, North America's largest man-made reservoir.
