The Hoover Dam Photo Tour is a fun and scenic tour to the magnificent Hoover Dam with an off road adventure into the colorful Rainbow Canyon. Located in the Black Hills just outside Las Vegas, Hoover Dam is an amazing structure that stands as prime example of the ability of man to overcome the power of nature. Upon arriving at the dam, you'll get to check out the visitor center as well as the interior of the dam. You'll then be taken to locations where you'll enjoy spectacular views of the world's largest man made lake, Lake Mead. Amazing views can also be found on the eastern edge of the chasm in Arizona. The tour will then travel to the Arizona side to Rainbow Canyon. Here you'll be in awe of the colorful and inspiring landscape, and probably spot a few big horn sheep as well. On your way back to Las Vegas, the tour will drive through Boulder City, passing historic buildings and markers along the way. Experience the wonder of Hoover Dam along with the serene beauty of the area with this unique sightseeing adventure.
This man made wonder weighs more than 6,600,000 tons and stands more than 700 feet tall. The maximum water pressure at the foot of the dam is about 45,000 pounds per square foot. You simply must explore this massive structure when visiting the Las Vegas area.
