Itinerary and highlights

Your full-day guided Grand Canyon West and Hoover Dam VIP experience begins with a 8:00 am pickup by air-conditioned luxury SUV or Mercedes Mini coach from your Las Vegas hotel for the drive to your first stop, the incredible Hoover Dam. This tour offers a wonderful extended tour of the exterior of Hoover Dam as well as the new Hoover Dam bridge a breathtaking 900 feet above the Colorado River.

When it was completed in 1936 Hoover Dam was the highest structure of its kind in the world. Your small-group tour includes an extended exterior tour of the Dam (where you'll walk across the top of the Dam from Nevada into Arizona) as well as the amazing Hoover Dam Bridge 900 feet above the Colorado River with ample time for photo opportunities from the top of the dam, and Lake Mead, North America's largest man-made lake with 550 miles of shoreline. In addition, stop at a local park where herds of bighorn sheep often come down (seasonal) from the surrounding mountains to gather and graze on the sweet grass.

Next, your day trip continues with the drive across the beautiful high desert of Arizona, where you'll visit the incredible 900-year-old Joshua tree forest, a 250 square mile stand of the most abundant and lush Joshua Tress in America. In addition, you'll tour the fabulous Diamond Bar Road, 14 miles of sweeping canyon views topped only by the Grand Canyon itself.

You'll have three hours to explore the most beautiful natural locations on the West Rim of the Grand Canyon. As you break out of Diamond Bar Rd Canyon you'll be consumed by the awesome views and colors of the Grand Canyon. It's like entering a beautiful fantasy world. Enjoy a romantic lunch at the rim of the Canyon, and you'll have lots of time to visit and explore the magnificent Eagle & Guano Points and take a walk on the amazing Skywalk, a glass bottom bridge, if you dare (optional).

Experience the canyon's stunning vastness and quiet tranquility as you watch the Colorado River wind through the rugged red walls below.
