A great day at Hoover Dam! - We did the Hoover Dam highlights tour that also included stops at the Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge and a quick stop at Boulder City. Our guide, Robert, was awesome. He’s so full of knowledge about Hoover Dam history, Boulder city & all things Vegas. I highly recommend our guide!
The bus ride was comfortable and with Robert talking about history and fun facts, it made the ride enjoyable.
Total time we had to walk and roam the Hoover dam was about 1 hour 10 minutes. It was plenty of time. You could buy extra ticket to tour the inside generators but we didn’t do it. The facility also has a cafe and gift shop.
The tour price is very reasonable as well. Our family really enjoyed the day. We were picked up at 10 AM (TI) and back to same pick up spot by 3:30 PM
Lunch is not included but the 30 minute stop in Boulder city was enough time for us to pick up a quick bite to eat from 2:30-3:00PM.
Tour guide provided water bottles and there was a bathroom on board as well.

A must see when visiting Vegas - The Hoover Dam is truly an incredible, massive marvel to see in person. My girlfriend and I got this experience through Go City, and it was my favorite use of it!
We upgraded to the Power Plant tour, which, as a general nerd, was the highlight of the whole experience for me. Shoutout to our driver and tour guide, Robert, for being entertaining and a *very* good bus driver (he said he has 6 million miles under his belt. That might have been the most impressive fact of the whole tour!).
Pickup was just before 10a, and we got back by 4p. We had just enough time for the power plant tour and to walk the dam, got a quick stop to view Lake Mead, and wrapped the day up in Boulder City.

Hoover Dam Experience - Overall we enjoyed the tiur. However, after we left the dam and went on top of the mountain on the Arizona side, we exited the bus. When we were ready to board, the door was already open with the bus running. After taking our seats, a male with what appears to be special needs started playing with the bus controls. He honked the horn, got on the microphone, and sat in the driver's seat. I was terrified that he would figure out how to put the bus in gear and thought we'd go right over the railing. Just as I told my son to get off the bus, his family appeared at the door and got him to go to his seat. He kept saying "I did it, did you see me". The bus should have never been left running and unattended. Things could have taken a bad turn.
