Hoover Dam Helicopter Tour - Self Drive From Las Vegas
Description
ArrayWhat To Expect
Built as an attempt to tame the raging Colorado River, and in order to provide hydroelectricity, the Hoover Dam, at the time of its completion, was the largest dam to ever see the light of day. An industrial wonder in all its right, the Hoover Dam is an arch-gravity dam; thicker at the bottom, and thinner on the top. One can’t possibly assess its sheer massiveness until they see it with their own eyes.
Hoover Dam Helicopter Tour
You will have to drive down by yourself from Las Vegas to the heliport near the Hoover Dam Lodge before you take flight on an exhilarating helicopter tour. Designed for panoramic viewing, the helicopter will take you over Hoover Dam, Lake Mead, and the Mike O’Callaghan–Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge, allowing you to soak in stunning views from a bird’s eye perspective. Enjoy 10 miles of air time while flying 2,500 feet above. With in-flight narration on notable points of interest, acquaint yourself with the history, myths, and natural workings of the Grand Canyon.
Hoover Dam and Black Canyon Helicopter Tour
You can choose to extend the flight duration over Hoover Dam and include the Black Canyon on your list. Continue along the Colorado River onboard the helicopter, towards the Black Canyon, and witness its depth with plunging cliffs, soaring buttresses, and a thundering river. Enjoy 20 miles of air time while flying 2,500 feet above!
