Useful Information
Serious Fun: Drive Your Own Excavator or Bulldozer
Meet at a giant sandbox in Las Vegas and receive a brief safety instruction and equipment orientation. You'll be given a hard hat, vest and 2-way radio before climbing aboard a real-life excavator or bulldozer for a unique and fun experience!
Via your radio headset, expert constructors will walk you through the levers and buttons, letting you maneuver these heavy-duty machines like a pro. Dig trenches, build mounds and move and stack 2,000-pound (909-kg) tires!
Play several fun, safe games like ‘Excavator Basketball,’ where you try to pick up a basketball off a cone and place it into your tire basket, or build your own ‘Bulldozer Teeter-Totter,’ where you’ll dig and move dirt into a mound and rock back and forth on top of it!
Choose between two packages: with the Big Dig Experience, maneuver either an excavator or a bulldozer. If you want the ultimate construction experience, choose the Mega Dig Experience and control both machines!
You’ll leave with a certificate of completion and, without a doubt, a smile on your face.

The greatest experience ever! I didn’t think I could operate an excavator and I did. The team there is fantastic in teaching you to operate the heavy equipment and then allowing you to play on the big kids playground.This is a fantastic memorable experience while in Vegas!

I was so scared to participate but once I got in the excavator all my fears went away. At the end I did not want to get out. Playing basketball was my favorite part. I got 3 for 3 ! The guides that walk you through all the moves are so helpful. They explain every move like they were sitting with you in the cab. If you have ever asked yourself how those big machines works this tour is for you. A must do when in Vegas.
