If you're going to go to the Hoover Dam, rent a car, don't go on one of the tour buses. They are a pain, take forever. If you go in the summer, it's hot, bring lots of water. When we went in 2003 the resevoir was so low that water was not flowing over the dam, which to me was going to be the highlight of the trip right! So we just got to stare at this big dry block of cement dam wall. Dam!
The Hoover Dam is interesting in all respects, how it was built, but kind of a long boring trip, better to watch a show about it on the History Channel.

Alternative: Is there an alternative? The Grand Canyon would probably be better.
