Explore haunted downtown Boulder City with stories of Hoover Dam spirits, a ghost dog, UFO sightings, and a free ESP gambling tip.

About this tour

Step into the eerie side of historic downtown on the Boulder City Ghost and UFO Tour, a 60-minute stroll just 30 minutes from Las Vegas. Created by paranormal researcher Joshua P. Warren, whose work has appeared on the Discovery, History, and Travel channels, this tour brings local legends to life on the streets where they began.

Hear stories of the men who died building Hoover Dam and the spirits said to linger, plus a ghost dog that still wanders at night and the woman described as the area’s first murderer. The route also explores Area 51 lore, reported UFO sightings, alleged gangster burial spots, and unusual celebrity connections, including Boris Karloff and Bette Davis. Along the way, learn how to turn your body into a human “ghost meter” and take home a free ESP gambling tip.

Meet inside Beer Zombies at 567 Nevada Way, or outside if the venue closes early. Discover the strange stories behind Boulder City’s familiar streets on this compact, accessible walking tour.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.88 from 74 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Las Vegas
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.7. Top 24% in Las Vegas means it ranks in the top 24% of tours in Las Vegas by this score.
