Anyone ever been? How long does the tour last and is it worth it?

Hoover Dam Guide: Welcome everyone. I am your dam guide, Arnie. Now I'm about to take you through a fully funtional power plant, so please, no one wander off the dam tour and please take all the dam pictures you want. Now are there any dam questions?
Cousin Eddie: Yeah, where can I get some damn bait?

We did the tour.
I would skip the tour and just ride up and see it and then hit Grand Canyon instead.

You would be making a big dam mistake if you go all the way up there and don’t take the tour. One of the most fascinating man made structures and you are going to miss an opportunity to go inside it and learn how it was built? Big dam mistake.

Had a friend who worked for TVA's Hydro division. He would always refer to it as his "dam job", and monthly he would get a "dam paycheck".

Me and the wife just got back from Las Vegas. We used this company and did the Red Rock canyon tour, and it was worth it.All of their other tours were booked. I highly recommend them.

We did the power plant tour this year. It doesn’t go as far down as the main tour but the main tour was sold out for the next 3 hours and we weren’t willing to wait.
I think the power plant tour was worth our time and you got to see and learn a lot, but it was shorter and not as deep.
Just driving across or walking across it is pretty spectacular.

This is the quote I always think of:
I was a dam builder
Across the river deep and wide
Where steel and water did collide
A place called Boulder on the wild Colorado
I slipped and fell into the wet concrete below
They buried me in that great tomb that knows no sound
But I am still around
I'll always be around and around and around and around and around
