That Dam Mine Tour
Two Tours in One
Visit Hoover Dam and Nevada's Largest Silver/Gold Mine
Enhance your experience of one of Nevada ’s most historic landmarks by adding a tour of the Eldorado Canyon Mine. This is the oldest, richest, and most famous gold mine in Southern Nevada, and you will get to experience it firsthand with “That Dam Mine Tour.“
Depart in our comfortable touring vehicle with the best driver and guides in Las Vegas. Guests who participate during our summer hours (June-September) will begin with a tour of the 1880’s Eldorado Canyon Mine. The visit consists of a two-hour guided tour above and below ground that will take you into the mine and its history. It begins with a walking tour of the old Techatticup Millsite, where ore was brought out of the mine and separated into gold and silver. The tour will proceed into the Savage Mine about 500 feet. You will be able to view the actual veins that miners chased. The air temperature of the mine remains at a comfortable 70 degrees all year.
Add to your visit to Eldorado Canyon Mine one of our optional ATV and horseback riding tours. The ATV tour is a half-hour back country trip through Nevada ’s amazing landscapes. If you have a sense of adventure, this additional tour is for you! For that full Western experience, the horseback ride option is the thing to do. With some of the best wranglers in the West, you can spend an hour feeling like John Wayne while riding through beautiful cactus country. Those who choose not to add the ATV or horseback riding tours will participate in the full two-hour tour of the mine.
Afterward, we will journey to the next destination—the historic Hoover Dam. You will have a full two hours at the dam, including time to go through the all-access Hoover Dam Power Plant Tour and to experience the Visitor Center and exhibit halls.
During our summer tours, after this fun-filled excursion, we will stop at another must-see of the city— the Ethel M. Chocolate Factory. Enjoy a free sample of gourmet chocolate as you tour the factory and stroll through the beautiful cactus gardens.
Guests participating during winter hours (October-May) won’t miss a thing. The tour simply switches to begin with the Hoover Dam tour and then be followed by the tour of Eldorado Canyon Mine.
Don’t miss the opportunity to enhance your visit to Las Vegas by getting this amazing glance into Nevada ’s history!
