I went with my family to the dam. it was majestic. Parking was difficult as the place was crowded with tourists, and it was particularly hot that day.

Well worth going but try get there earlier as they shut early at 4pm which is OK if you don't want a tour as parking is then free. Was windy when we went but hot so take a drink

We drove over this a couple of times after flying over it in a helicopter and we loved it. It's huge and full of videos etc to explain how it was built and why it's used today. Parking is a bit limited in some places...More

Took a Grand Canyon tour that stopped at the dam for a photo stop. This is a fantastic bit of engineering and a must see in Vegas. The trip was long but well worth the time.

My husband and myself were in Vegas this past week. We did rent a car. First stop was Hoover Dam. We did get there early, the crowds really started pouring in about 11. There is lots of walking, so wear comfortable shoes. It is hot,...More

You're over it before you know it. No warning. Very high and huge feat of engineering. To see it best... Get off at Hoover dam exit and go to the dam. You'll see the underbelly of the bypass along with the dam. A real site...More

Not too far from the strip we went on an organised coach tour with Grayline tours. They were efficient on time and a courtesy bus ferries you to the main coach and the start of the Strip. 30 mins depending on traffic you're there. We...More
