Lake Mead Cruises offers some of the most relaxing and enjoyable ways to tour Hoover Dam and Lake Mead. Aboard the Desert Princess, a three-level paddle-wheeler with ample outdoor deck space, visitors will witness all the natural and engineered beauty of Lake Mead National Recreation Area. Highlights include Fortification Hill, the site of an extinct volcano, the Arizona Paint Pots, which are composed of stunning lava fields and wildflowers, and the engineering marvel that is the Hoover Dam. You can also opt for a laidback champagne brunch cruise or a dinner cruise beneath the stars.
