Overview

Your excursion begins with a pickup from the Las Vegas strip for time to explore “The town that built Hoover Dam” with a visit to the Boulder City Historic District. Created in the 1930's, this unique town was home to the workers who built Hoover Dam, known then as Boulder Dam. Boulder City retains much of the charm and feel from the first days of its creation. Enjoy antique shops, famous eateries, and the Boulder Dam Hotel and Museum, with free admission and some fascinating exhibits about this unique city. Boulder City is also known for its many interesting bronze sculptures, each with its own story, throughout the historic downtown area.
