We did the Grand Canyon West Rim Bus Tour and it was great. Gia was an excellent guide with lots of info, and Wayne made sure we got ice water at each stop. Bucket list trip that didn’t disappoint!

The tour narrator on the bus was great. The helicopter down to the canyon was the best, and the boat ride on the Colorado River was top notch.

Destination Guide

Why Visit the Hoover Dam?

The Hoover Dam is one of America's great engineering feats, and at just a 30-minute drive from the Las Vegas Strip, it's the easiest big-ticket sight to add to any Las Vegas trip.

Standing more than 700 feet tall and stretching over 1,200 feet across Black Canyon, the dam holds back Lake Mead, the nation's largest reservoir at 248 square miles. It was built with 6.6 million tons of concrete and was the tallest dam in the world when it opened.

On a tour you can drop 530 feet inside the dam to see the hydroelectric generators, and it pairs easily with a West Rim tour, a Colorado River cruise, a Lake Mead boat tour, or a Strip helicopter flight.
