Hoover Dam: From Above - On Top - And Below, with Boulder City

Our guide, Thomas, was exceptionally friendly and very knowledgeable about each of our destinations. We visited 7 Magic Mountains, The Hoover Damn, and the West Rim. Snacks were good, with plenty of beverages at every stop. Thomas knew so much about the area, not just the tour stops. His off-hand bits of wisdom about local towns or points of interest spawned interesting conversations in the group, and kept the driving portions of the tour lively and entertaining. We left at 7 am, and made it back to the hotel around 7, and had plenty of time to catch our 8 pm dinner reservation.I can whole heartedly recommend this tour, and we plan on checking out this group's tour offerings in the future. read less

Phil picked everyone up, I think that there were 13-14 of us so not crowded at all! After everyone was in the van, Phil explained how the day would go and then started telling us the history of the Vegas sign. We stopped there for some pictures of the sign and with "Elvis", then we loaded back up to head to 7 Magic Mountains. Phil was giving us the history of the area and of the exhibit along the way. We then stopped for a restroom break and then on to the Hoover Dam. Phil drove through a neighborhood so that we could see some big horn sheep, they were just chilling in a local park, undisturbed by everyone! Hoover Dam was incredible! It's sad to see how far the water level has dropped over the years though. Phil provided us with history of everything throughout the tour, he's very knowledgeable! He also gave some good reviews on restaurants and tips on discount show tickets. He even brought something back to us that we left in the van after he'd gone home for the night. read less

For me, because I am hearing impaired I never know how a tour will meet my needs. Phil went out of his way to make sure I was close to him at all times so that I could hear and understand everything he was sharing. We learned a lot and received tons of great facts about Las Vegas, Henderson, Boulder city, Seven Magic Mountains and Hoover Dam. He provided unlimited drinks and snacks and even added some short bonus stops on the way to Hoover Dam. Seven Magic Mountains was beautiful and the Hoover Dam was magnificent. The tour turned out to be the cherry on the top of our trip and made my bucket list checkmark extra special! read less

First of all our tour guide, Phil, was amazing and informative. He gave us the important details at Hoover Dam and Seven Magic Mountains but he also shared interesting facts all along the way giving us a glimpse of live in the Las Vegas, Boulder and Henderson area. This tour gives you a fast look around at Hoover Dam with Phil filling in lots of facts on its construction and operations. There is enough time for pictures but you move along the entire time. If you want to linger and hang out for longer another tour might be better. For what we wanted this tour was great. We had plenty of time at Seven Magic Mountains to take lots of pictures and walk around. Another super nice bonus was that Phill had plenty of drinks and snacks packed for everyone. It was nice to grab a cool drink without paying another $5 at the gift shop. I highly recommend this excursion if you want a very informative and fun tour of two great sights without having to give up an entire day of your vacation time to do so. If you’re lucky you may even end up with Phill as your tour guide. read less

Bobby was an excellent and friendly guide, he was also a superb photographer and was very creative in the pictures he took of me in front of the famous landmarks. The tour size was a small friendly group, the transport was comfortable and there was a nice choice of snacks and drinks along the way. Bobby also kept us well informed along the way of points of interest we were passing and gave us an entertaining and informative description of everything we saw. Very happy and would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to see the Hoover Dam while staying in Vegas. read less

He’s a historian, photographer, comedian, and family man. What I appreciated the most was the environment he created in our van. Lots of questions. Lots of information to take in. And games to keep us learning and connected. 6-7 groups came in as strangers, and we left each other laughing a ton and exchanging numbers. Another thing that stuck out was the little details Phil adds to our tour—seeing the mountain sheep, making sure we go to clean restrooms and not crowded lunch spots, and sharing the story about the Hoover Damn dog.I highly recommend Max Tours to anyone! And if you’re able, I suggest you find a way to get Phil as your guide! read less

Plus we were able to go down into the dam and see the turbines which had been closed for two years. Walking on Pat Tillman bridge nothing short of amazing. This is the ONLY Hoover Dam tour anyone should take and if you get Eric you’ve got the ultimate tour guide as well .!!! read less
