The Boulder City/Hoover Dam Museum is located on the first floor of the Boulder Dam Hotel and is the perfect accompaniment to any tour of Hoover Dam. The Museum's three-dimensional, interactive displays and exhibits describe the great social and economic forces that drove thousands of unemployed citizens from their homes into the isolation of the Nevada desert. Hotel guests receive a free pass to this fine museum.
Considered one of the Modern Wonders of Civil Engineering, the Hoover Dam stands as a profound testimony to the thousands of men and their families who braved the Southern Nevada desert to finish the project under budget and ahead of schedule. Over one million people tour the Hoover Dam each year. Tours are available daily from 9:15 a.m. to 4:15 p.m..
For the more adventuresome, try a thrilling ride on the Bootleg Canyon Flightlines, a helicopter excursion over the Grand Canyon, soar above it all with Sky Dive Las Vegas, kayak the Colorado below Hoover Dam, or take one of the National Park Service hikes in and around the Lake Mead Recreational Area.

Take a ride on the Nevada Southern Railway, explore the River Mountains Loop Trail, cruise Lake Mead aboard the Desert Princess, browse Boulder City’s unique shops, inspect the fascinating sculptures and murals around town, and tour one of the historic neighborhoods that once housed those who built Hoover Dam.
