Overview

Head out with your professional tour guide on this wonderful Exterior Tour of the Hoover Dam. This tour will give you an incredible insight into the building of the Dam, one of the Seven Engineering Wonders of the World. In addition, you’ll also walk on the amazing Pat Tillman Bridge, 900 feet above the Colorado River, walk from Nevada into Arizona along the top of the Dam and see Lake Mead, created by the building of the dam with approximately 550 miles of shoreline. Before returning to Las Vegas, enjoy a stop at a local park where herds of Bighorn Sheep often come down from the surrounding mountains (seasonal) to graze on the sweet grass.

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.
