Hoover Dam

This place is really cool. I didn't get the scope and size until I went there. It's huge! There is plenty of free parking. You do have to pass a security checkpoint to make sure you don't have any fire arms or drones. There are trails that lead to all kinds of places. I just passed through and checked it out, but would have loved to hike the trails.

What an awesome experience. Parking was easy, but did cost $10. The garage was roomy for bigger vehicles. The tour we wanted was first come first serve and we didn't get to attend. But we did do the power plant tour, which was interesting, but not sure I would attend again. Lots of picture opportunities. The gift shop was nice and had lots of options. If you plan to eat there, plan to wait and stand. The restaurant gets busy. They did have some grab and go options. Staff was super friendly.

Had a great time visiting Nevada with my family. We really enjoyed visiting the Hoover Dam! It was a nice drive from Las Vegas. We got to the dam earlier than later. Easy to park. The weather was getting warm so definitely have water on hand. If you are visiting Nevada, definitely stop by the Hoover Dam. What an amazing experience we had there.

What a wonderful experience, I’m glad my first experience was with my three sons! 106 degrees, make sure to bring plenty of water. They do have fountains near the bathrooms on the roadway and it’s cold, but if you have kids bring water.

WHAT A BEAUTIFUL SITE! It beyond words breathtaking experiencing the hard work and dedication of our ancestors. There is a secondary site that you can walk on that allows you to see the dam from a higher vantage point, and there is a tourist center that expains the history and creation of the dam as well, highly suggest going.

It is amazing and insane to see this in person. We walked on the overlooking bridge and then again over the dam. You can find free parking on the AZ side or pay to park on the NV side and have closer access to the gift shop and visitor center.

We visited here twice, it's a good tour spot. The dam looks spectacular. The visitor center provides foods/drinks/snacks/ice creams. It's good to sit inside to have ice cream in a hot day. The best view point of the dam is in the parking lot on the south of the dam (in Arizona side). you can see the dam and lake from a high point.

Such a wonderful experience! A must see when in the area. We didn't do the official tour but enjoyed it's beauty and loved walking on the bridge to view dam as well.
