Mixed review but hopefully helpful to others. Booked Postcard tour that has exclusive permit to put in just below Hoover Dam in a restricted spot. Great guide, knowledge, views. BUT the "float" is just that. The raft doesn't go anywhere as it goes 50ft from shore and guide holds it in place while gives history of dam, bridge and other historical pieces. Great if you'd rather do that than tour Dam itself and be out on water, but I thought it actually floated down the CO River. A bit of misleading or strategic lack of information on the booking site. If you want to float, I think the Black Canyon tour would be the bet.
Also we took our 2 year old and boat was solid and safe if you have a small one. Tour was short enough that she enjoyed too. Gripe is I called to specify and clarify if safe day prior (which they said yes), but when we arrived the guides didn't have a toddler life vest that was required. Had to modify a larger one to meet the requirements but that didn't make her happy.
