BEST Hoover Dam Experience! - This experience was affordable, informative, family friendly, entertaining and timely! We really enjoyed the whole tour. Our kids got to play in the water, we stopped at a cave to feel a hot spring and the guide was laid back and cool to talk to. I would say it is a MUST DO for anyone going to the Hoover Dam.

10/10 Recommend! - Our guide was knowledgeable and made the experience even better by sharing interesting facts and history without overdoing it. It felt like the perfect balance of learning and just enjoying the moment. If you’re looking for something a little different from the typical sightseeing, this is 100% worth it. It’s relaxing, beautiful, and such a memorable way to experience the Hoover Dam from a completely different angle. Highly recommend!

Couples trip - I wish we could have went a little further down the river. I think it’s more enjoyable when it’s the least bussiest time for the tour. We did the 1.5 hour tour, I would bring my kids to do it next time. Kids would enjoy it for sure. We really enjoyed it though, we only had 10 people on the raft with us. Nice experience
