This full-day tour trades a typical dam tour for something a little more entertaining, pairing a walk across the top of Hoover Dam and a guided look inside its power plant with a professional comedian guide who blends humor into the history throughout the drive. Along the way, guests stop for photos at the Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas sign, pass through historic Boulder City, and take in sweeping views of the dam and Lake Mead from the Mike O'Callaghan-Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge before reaching the dam itself.

Once there, guests spend about two and a half hours exploring the dam, including an exclusive walk across its top and a look inside the power plant, generator room, and observation deck, before sitting down to a hot, made-to-order lunch nearby. The day wraps up with a complimentary voucher to a Las Vegas comedy club, extending the laughs well beyond the ride home.

• Age: All ages are welcome

What to expect on the day of the experience?

• What's included: Round-trip hotel pickup and drop-off, a professional comedian tour guide, photo stops at the Las Vegas sign and the dam bridge, dam admission covering the interior power plant tour and exclusive walk across the top of the dam, a hot sit-down lunch, unlimited bottled water, and a complimentary comedy club ticket voucher.
• Who will be present: A guide leads the tour, along with other guests sharing the same bus. Guides bring humor to the narration, though this is not a stand-up comedy show.
• Photo/video: Photos are allowed and encouraged.
• Specific rules to follow: The dam requires a security screening similar to airport security; large bags, coolers, and weapons are not permitted, and only small bags that fit under a seat or between the feet are allowed on the bus.

How to prepare?

• Weather dependency: Rain or shine, the tour will run. The dam's interior stays cool year-round, while the bus is climate-controlled for the desert heat.
• Arrival: Hotel pickup happens in the early morning; guests are never more than a 5-minute walk from their pickup point.
• What to wear: Comfortable, closed-toe shoes and layers are recommended, since temperatures shift between the desert heat, the air-conditioned bus, and the cooler dam interior.
• What to bring:
  • Sunglasses, sunscreen, and a hat for sun protection
  • A camera for photo stops along the way
  • A small bag only, able to fit under a seat or between the feet
• Restrooms/lockers/changing rooms: The bus includes an onboard restroom, with additional restrooms available at stops along the way; guests are never more than 45 minutes from a bathroom break. Guests checking out of their hotel the morning of the tour can typically leave luggage with the hotel's front desk.
