  • If you have never been to Hoover Dam and you are gonna do the tour, might as well do the 30 dollar one. Here's the breakdown: Visitor Center Admission - $8 for all ages. 3 and under free. Power Plant Tour - $11 for all ages. Senior/Junior/Military - $9. 3 and under free. Dam Tour - $30. Power Plant Tour +2 extra stops in the dam. Yes, 3 and under free. Why I recommend the 30 dollar one is because everything is included. Not only do you have access to the Visitor Center and Power Plant Tour, but you break off from the regular group and go even deeper into the dam. When you go down the winding corridors and hallways, your tour guide will tell you a whole boatload of facts and rich history that translates into a lot of great stories. What stuck out to me was that officially, 96 people died on the work site. Unofficially, about 140. Our tour guide explained that if you didn't die at the work site, it wasn't considered an official death. So if you got sick and died in the hospital or at home, it wasn't official and you were not awarded any benefits. This sounded kind of morbid but hay, it actually happened and those were the rules set forth. Besides the dialogue, I asked some questions. Like when I read how the Great Wall of China was built that they buried the workers that died inside the actual wall. Likewise, my question applied to the dam. I got a big fat "NO!". Then I asked were there any paranormal activities, ghost sightings or just any overall weird happenings. Again, the answer was no. Lastly, Megatron was not the reason they built the dam. Although you gotta give them props for doing that considering how they fit it in the timeline of the movie. Overall, I was genuinely impressed and at the same time overwhelmed by the info and history of this marvel. The only thing that took the one star away was that our tour guide was lame. Yes he knew what he was talking about and guided us safely. It was his monotone voice and overall attitude like it was just a job to him. I actually had to crack jokes and make some funny remarks just to get some life out of our group. Don't get me wrong, I don't want him to get fired, thus not mentioning his name, but at least be more outgoing and be attentive to your group.
