Hoover Dam
This exciting tour commences with complimentary hotel pickup. As you make your way to the Hoover Dam, you will travel past Lake Mead, the second largest man-made lake in the Western Hemisphere. The tour will provide you with the opportunity to walk on the top of the Hoover Dam Bypass Bridge. Following this stop, you will cross over the top of the Dam with closeup views of the architecture, penstocks and Arizona Spillway. When the Hoover Dam was completed early in 1935, it was both the world's largest electric power producing facility and the world's largest concrete structure, weighing a total of 6.6 million tons. You will discover a multitude of facts on your tour about this impressive structure.

The Bypass Bridge opened in 2010 stretching nearing 2,000 feet long and 840 feet above the Colorado River, making it the second highest bridge in the United States. Ample time is provided for souvenir shopping and purchase of food items at the Dam restaurant. This is truly an exciting and very educational experience that will provide you with a thorough overview of this fascinating, nearly 90 year old, civil engineering wonder of the world.

Bil C was our driver/guide on this tour. He was prompt, courteous, and informative. Once we were on the tour I was so glad we booked instead of driving ourselves because the driver needed to be fully focused and familiar with the hilly, curvy, narrow roads and not looking around enjoying the views. But as a passenger, I was able to look at everything and enjoy the ride with the bonus of great narration along the way. Experiencing Mike O'Callaghan... bridge and Hoover Dam up close and in person was amazing. It was easy to book and Sweetours provided a great day traveling to, at, and back from Hoover Dam.
