Day trip to Hoover Dam and Lake Meade - Darren was a great host and tour guide. The information he knew was amazing and informative. We were the only couple on the tour and he talked non-stop our entire ride. He took photos of us and gave us the proper amount of time to enjoy the views from different vantage points. Great time and worth the money.

I thought we had booked a... - I thought we had booked a tour to the Hoover Dam. Instead we basically had an uber driver in a car with an unpleasant odor. We had just completed a Gate One tour with an outstanding guide, so to go from that experience to this was at best a disappointment. I am not planning to use Viator again. This is my second bad experience. Shame on me.
