Excellent trip to Grand Canyon and Hoover Dam. Guide Gia and driver Milton we fantastic. Definitely recommed
Great time. Would definatly do again.
We’re so glad you had a great time! Looking forward to welcoming you back again.
We didn’t get to do everything the description said we would, but was still overall pleased with the trip. Boulder City wasn’t too interesting so that part could be skipped. There was a real jerk on the tour who decided he & his family didn’t have to be back to the bus by 12:15. Robert handled the situation well.
Thank you for traveling with us! We value your feedback and are pleased to hear Robert helped keep things on track despite the situation.
The power plant was closed..we got lost in the grueling heat..the tour bus driver, Robert, was a wonderful angel..My we were given the wrong directions to get back to the bus..We walked and walked in the scorching heat..my friend ended up in Boulder City Hospital..Not a good experience.. The rest of the tour was nice..Just didn't enjoy walking with the wrong directions..
Thank you for your review. We apologize for the confusion and the challenging situation in the heat. We’re glad parts of the tour were enjoyable and appreciate your praise for Robert.
Gia and Milton were outstanding! Grand Canyon, Hoover dam, etc was wonderful. This was not a selection on the list provided to review. They provided everyone with great information, we’re patient, energetic and funny, and allowed everyone to have a phenomenal time. I would highly recommend them in any tours that they do.
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We’re happy to hear Gia and Milton’s energy, humor, and knowledge helped make your tour extra special.
Check to make sure guests can go to the power plant before booking Loved ou bus driver. Very knowledgeable
We appreciate your feedback and are glad our driver helped make your experience enjoyable.
If you do the underground tour, there’s only about 15 min left to walk over the dam or to see exhibits. Not enough time by far. There are two brief stops on the way back to LV, again not enough time. Too rushed.
Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear the tour felt rushed. Our itinerary is designed to include several highlights in one day, though we understand this can limit time at each stop.
Our tour of the Hoover Dam Inside Tour was great!! Our tour guide Robert L. was absolutely fantastic!! He was very informative and made the trip easy!!
We appreciate your feedback! So glad you enjoyed the Hoover Dam tour with Robert.
Had an amazing experience on this Grand Canyon tour! The itinerary was well organized, the stops were beautiful, and we got to see so much in one day. The views at Eagle Point and Guano Point were breathtaking, and the bonus stops at Hoover Dam and Hemenway Park made the trip even better. The guide and driver were friendly and kept everything running smoothly. Great value for anyone visiting Las Vegas!
Thank you for your fantastic review! We’re glad you enjoyed the itinerary, views, and extra stops. We appreciate your kind words about our team!
The van driver was very knowledgeable and friendly. All the staff at the dam were very informative as well.
Thank you! We’re glad our knowledgeable driver made a positive impression.
