Well worth taking. Jason our tour guide was funny and informative. Even the restaurant meal was good
We thoroughly enjoyed our tour, done by Comedy on Tour. Our tour guide was VERY knowledgeable about the dam and all of it's history leading up to the current day, and he was a stand up comedian to boot. Our lunch stop was very good. Overall, an excellent tour, including ice cold water for a very hot day.
Had a great time going to the Hoover Dam.The staff was very professional and fun to be with and the sites were incredible. And it was a beautiful day too.
We had a fun time with crazy Jason and Tom. It was non stop comedy and we had lots of photo time to take dam photos from the bridge and the powerplant tour was really interesting. Finished the tour with a lunch where we chose ice tea with a burger. Could have had icecream for after but had enough. Really entertaining day.
We had interesting commentary from Trez who entertained us on the trip out to the dam but also gave us good insights and information about the construction of the dam and its impact on the community.
Jason and Gary are amazing tour guides! Both friendly and more knowledgeable than the staff at the Hoover Dam itself. Would definitely recommend!
The Comedy Deck group are awesome! Well planned and efficient with timing on pick up, terrific lunch afterwards and love the comedy intro and post tour fun in bus by Trez!!
I am so glad I choose to book with the comedy tour. Trevor and Gary were awesome and super sweet. Trevor is hilarious. I learned a lot, probably more than I would have if u tried to do it alone. Lunch was tasty, the scenery was beautiful you won’t be disappointed!
The tour was informative and the guide was humorous and enjoyable to be with. Could have done without the crappy lunch at a Waffle House
Comedy On Deck did a great job putting this day trip together. We could have organized this ourselves, but it was better to leave the driving to them. One area that could be improved is the information on the Visitor website doesn't mention the actual tour operator,and the promised "Walk The Top Guided Tour" didn't happen -- and no mention was made that it wouldn't happen. Since we were paying for guides, this was a disappointing omission
Was a great tour. Tour guide (Jason) was exceptional, and the food served was delicious. A sit down meal from a tour is rare.
My friends and I had the best time on this tour. Our guide was hilarious! What a wonderful day spent enjoying the Dam Tour!
This was on my bucket list and every one was great from the start of the day to the food at the end , the weather was perfect
This was a very organize tour. Jason and Scott did a very good job of sharing great information while we were traveling and making sure everybody knew what was going on. This is a tour I would recommend for everybody.
There is no reason to book with anyone else!! This Ultimate Tour truly has everything!! Money well spent, and worth it! Can not say enough good things: Bus driver was safe. Tour guide was funny and very knowledgeable. You get Boulder City, Views of the Lake, Mike O'Callaghan and Pat Tillman bridge, Tour of Hoover Dam/Generators/Education Video, AND Lunch!! What else is there??
When its advertised ultimate hoover dam tour it's true. From the time we got on the bus until being dropped off it was so enjoyable. Jason really added to the fun. I have recommended your company to all my friends.
If you are afraid of high open places, you need to muster up the courage to walk out on the bridge and the dam. Otherwise, you will really enjoy this tour. We had a great time and enjoyed the trip and orde.
Picked up on time and fun began immediately. I'm not good with remembering names but our driver and tour guide for the day were just so funny and pleasant. The dam was great, plenty of time to see everything. Memorial bridge was impressive and glad this was part of the tour. The only down side was I asked during the preorder of our lunch if the veggie burger was made with black beans and was advised it was not. When we got to diner and veggie burger came out ...you guessed it.......black beans which I can't stand. Had to do without. Grandson got regular burger which he liked but potatoes were not cooked all the way. Lunch was just so-so. Everything else was top notch.
Great hosts, comfortable bus, lots of good jokes and history, excellent lunch and kept to timeline! Great stuff!
Great time and money well spent. Had a great guide who was very knowledgeable and very helpful with providing needed information.
Had a great tour the tour guide and bus driver was great.my trip was with my 2 grandsons they had a great trip Iwould highly recommended this tour for anyone.
Took the Ultimate Hoover Dam Tour on a Saturday morning. We were the last stop to be picked up. The bus was there a few minutes late, but that was very understandable because of traffic and other guests showing up on time. We had a very comfortable ride to the dam and were entertained all the while by Jason. Some of his whit was a little quick and took a couple seconds to pick up on his sense of humor. His knowledge of the dam and the history of the community that built it was impressive. The lunch was good. Glad we chose this 1/2 day outing.
The tour was a lot of fun. The sight seeing was amazing and the tour guide Trevor was very funny and made the traveling go quickly.
Jason and Gary were great. Smaller tour group was great and Jason made ride there go by quickly. He gave great suggestions later about other shows/areas to visit on strip. Great experience!
The bus ride on this tour was more than half the fun! Tour guide Trez and driver Steve were so hilariously entertaining and informative, it was difficult to imagine the bus ride took 40 minutes to get to the bypass bridge and Hoover Dam. The dam tour itself was great and lunch at Omelet House was delicious and plentiful! Do yourself a favor and go on the Ultimate Hoover Dam Tour (Comedy on Deck)!
Had great time Trevor kept un entertained the whole time and was very knowledgeable about Hoover Dam, can recommend this tour.
Tour guide Jason and Driver Gary were fabulous! Very informative and fun. Had plenty of time to see and do everything while we were there. Highly recommend!
We enjoyed our 1 day adventure with Jason and driver Phil. From convenient pick-up at a nearby hotel, to the light-hearted yet interesting and historical tidbits in the rides to and from the dam, it was a well spent 6+ hours. Lunch at the Café was surprisingly good.
Bus driver steve and tour guide trek were great! Trek kept us laughing and we learned a lot of history along the way had nice meal for lunch great tour and time away from vegas strip!!!
This was a great tour. Got to go into the Dam and see how it all works. It's an amazing thing - The Hoover Dam. Just how it was built........how it was accomplished back in those days.
Jason our guide provided a very funny, informed and enjoyable Hoover Dam Tour. His patter was amusing if sometimes a little hard for a Baby Boomer to follow. We stopped with plenty of time to view Hoover Dam and the exhibits. Could have used a little more time to walk the O’Callaghan-Tillman Bridge. Lunch was hot and delicious. Gary was a skilled, careful driver. Would recommend this as a fine tour of Hoover Dam but budget a full day.
We had Trevor (Trez) as a guide. He was awesome! Very funny and knowledgeable. He made the trip very enjoyable. It was well organized and lunch was great. Highly recommend it!
Our tour guide Trevor was extremely knowledgeable and entertaining, and Steve did a great job maneuvering the tour bus. Was an amazing visit which I highly recommend.
Steve (the driver) and Trez were both very friendly, had great comradeship and good energy. Trez gave out information along the way and included some comedy in his delivery. It was very easy listening and pleasant. The actually dam was great to see up close and walk around although we didn’t make it on the first elevator down to the power plant tour portion so we got separated from the group (limited space) and had less time to mingle around the top area afterward, to take pictures, see the old dam model, gift shop etc. So that felt very rushed and wasn’t ideal but we still enjoyed seeing what we did. Then we went up to walk on the overpass bridge and you get about 30 min to walk up the path and get that perspective of the dam and see the state line if you hurry! We stopped at a restaurant on the way back which was decent and very organized and we were in and out. Overall great experience, would recommend :)
Our guide, Jason, was awesome!! /Very informative about the trip on the way and knew a lot about the dam and how and when it came about. Very impressive. I would recommend the trip to residents as well as out of town guests.
I recommend this tour it was absolutely amazing. Steve the bus driver and Trevor the tour guide were exceptional. They made it informational, fun and very enjoyable. Oh and the lunch was great too!
Had an amazing visit to the Hoover Dam, the hotel collection was on time, the coach was lovely and the tour guide was perfect, his name was Justin, he was very funny. His narration was topical, informative and the right kind of humour, we loved it. We were prepared not to be able to visit the turbine area due to the ongoing maintenance, but somehow, with Jason's knowledge of the site, he got us there early and we were actually allowed access, a great surprise for us all. The whole scale of this construction is truly breathtaking, if this is on your bucket list of places to visit, what are you waiting for, its well worth the money.
The tour was great! Lots good history and was great to be able to see it. The bus driver Gary and host Jason were great tour guides.
Booked Comedy Tour for the fam and we were very happy with this tour. BIG shout out to Jason LaRoche!!! Made the trip an awesome experience. Restaurant stop on the way back was a added bonus as well. Thanks again!!
