💡What guns do you shoot on the Hoover Dam machine gun and speedboat combo?

On this 7.5-hour private combo from Las Vegas ($599 per person), you shoot four weapons in the open desert: a Glock pistol, an Uzi, an MP5, and a 50 Cal Barrett sniper rifle. After firing, you stop for a full American breakfast on the pier, then spend two to three hours on a private speedboat on the Colorado River, with cliff jumping and Hoover Dam seen from the water. Best for groups of 4 to 15 adults 21 and over who want both shooting and boating in one day.

🎯 Why People Book This

What you actually get out of this is two unrelated adrenaline activities packaged into one private day: shooting four weapons in the open desert, including a 50 Cal Barrett sniper rifle, then a private speedboat on the Colorado River past Hoover Dam from the water. At USD 599 per person the draw is paying once to skip the indoor gun range and the rental boat, and have a captain and driver handle the day instead. It runs 7.5 hours and serves alcohol, so it suits adults 21 and over who want both the range and the river without organizing either themselves. The tradeoff is depth in one activity for the novelty of doing two.

🗺️ The Experience

The VIP Machine Gun & Speedboat Combo is a 7.5-hour private day from 2Vegas.com that runs from a desert shooting range to private speed boats on the Colorado River past Hoover Dam, with hotel pickup, breakfast, and drinks included, at USD 599 per person.

The day's center of gravity is the water. After the morning, you spend two to three of the seven and a half hours on the Colorado River and Lake Mead in a private speed boat with your own captain, which is where Hoover Dam comes into view from below, seen from the lake rather than the visitor deck. There is time to swim in the open water and to cliff jump if you want to, at your own risk, with life jackets provided either way.

The build is front-loaded but the river is the payoff. It opens at an outdoor desert range, not an indoor gun room, where you fire four weapons including a Glock pistol, an Uzi and an MP5 on full automatic, and a single round through a .50 cal Barrett sniper rifle, with an HD photo and 4K video package thrown in. Then a full American breakfast at a pier restaurant before the boats.

What 599 buys is unusual: it is all-inclusive and private, so the shooting, the captain, the breakfast, the beer and champagne, and all fees are already in the price. There is no upgrade ladder here. You pay once and the only decision left is whether to jump off the cliff.

The shooting starts the day; the river is what you came for.

🤔 Is It Worth It?

Our verdict: The reason this works for some and not others is what you actually want out of a day near the Hoover Dam. At $599, this isn't a dam tour with extras bolted on; it's a firing range and a speedboat run that happen to share the day, and the dam is the water view in between. This is for the traveler who'd rather fill a day with two things they can't do at home than learn the history of the structure.

Worth it if:

you want a day built around doing, not touring, and the machine gun range and the speedboat are the point rather than the dam itself
you're treating this as a one-off splurge with friends and the 7.5 hours are about the experiences, not ticking off a landmark
a perfect track record matters to you, and the 5/5 across 38 reviews tells you the operator runs this combo well

Skip it if:

you actually came to see the Hoover Dam up close, in which case the $109.99 Comedy Hoover Dam Tour with interior access puts you inside the structure for far less and centers the day on it
you want a short, focused look at the dam and nothing else; the 3-hour Mini Tour at $68 does that without the range or the boat

Choose this over the Hoover Dam Bridge Walk & Boulder City Historic Tour if:

you'd rather spend the day shooting and on the water than walking the bridge and reading historic markers, and the dam being a backdrop instead of the subject suits you fine

LasVegasTour Editorial Review

4.5

★★★★★★★★★★LasVegasTour Rating

“What you're really buying here is a chauffeured permission slip to do three things Vegas makes hard on your own: fire a 50 Cal Barrett in open desert, eat breakfast on a pier, then run a private speed boat past Hoover Dam from the water. The trade-off is the price, 599 dollars per person, which only reads as fair because the vehicle, captain, shooting gear, breakfast and alcohol are all bundled. Skip it if you'd rather drink than shoot, since you must be 21 and the day commits 7.5 hours to both. Worth the full day for a group that wants all three.”
