Awesome private tour! - We were looking for a private escape from Vegas for a few hours and this was perfect. Darren was on time and extremely knowledgeable about the tour stops and food and local plants. It was fun and interesting and we didn’t feel rushed at all.

Great Personal Tour - Darren was our driver. He was punctual in his arrival at our hotel for pick-up. He also reached out the day before and day of the trip to keep us informed of his arrival. Darren was very knowledgeable about the Hoover Dam, Boulder City and Lake Mead. We stopped at a local park to try to witness big horn sheep and then were off to the Dam. Darren provided info about the Dam and then gave us space to do our own exploring before meeting up and continuing the tour. I highly recommend this experience!

The Best Dam Tour! - Darren was an amazing tour guide! Very knowledgeable about the Hoover Dam sites and gave us a really thorough tour. Picked us up right in front of our hotel and returned us there, communication about meeting was great. My fiancé and I really enjoyed our morning, highly recommend a private tour with D-Tours!

Enjoyed this experience - Our guide/driver Darren was very knowledgeable about the dam, area and wildlife. We traveled in his personal vehicle which was clean. Darren had snacks and water available for free and had ponchos as it was raining, which rarely happens in LV.

Great way to tour the dam! - Darren was very informative and entertaining!! The only downside was his small car, but it was because his was in the shop and not his fault. Overall a fun, informative trip!
