"Dig This" was a huge amount of fun. I choose the bulldozer and Im already planning to go back and run the excavator. I went on a Tuesday afternoon so there were only 3 other people there, and I was the only one running a bulldozer which meant that I got personal one-on-one training and attention, which in turn made the experience that much better. Show up 20 minutes before your start time. They will give you a quick breathalyzer and a safety video/instruction, and a hi-vis vest to wear. They take safety seriously. On top of that, they have remote engine cut off switches for all equipment just to be sure. The action takes place in a large open lot right next door to the office, so theres no added travel time, check it out on Google Maps to get an idea of what it looks like. You have a nice view of the strip hotels across I-15 while you play. I wont spoil all the action but to suffice to say with the dozer youll make a big hole in the ground and then try to fill it back in, which is harder than it sounds. You also get to play with some large tires. Its a workout. In case youre worried about being out in the heat/sun of Vegas, rest assured, I cant stand the heat but I was comfortable the entire time. The equipment all have enclosed cabs with good a/c in them, you wont give temperature a second thought. At the end everyone was presented with a certificate of completion and the option to buy a photo of themselves in the equipment ($20). I highly recommend Dig This as a fun event.

This was the best experience in all of Las Vegas! The trainers covered everything to make sure wed be safe. Then finally we were out there digging holes and doing 360s with the excavator! Then we tackled the bulldozer and ripped and pushed mountains of dirt, then we drove over the mountain we created into the pit on the other side, better than a roller coaster any day! We tipped those dozers up on their hind end until they were vertical! Then we dove into the holes we dug and chugged up the other side and over the hill until we were almost vertical again. These guys are the GREATEST and DIG THIS is nothing but FUN FUN FUN!

Whenever I pass an empty construction site, I always jump into the seat of the heavy machinery, and pretend to drive it. "Beep beep beep" Ill say, then Ill be all like "reeeennnnnkk pppbbbbrrrttttttt... Cckkkrrrdsssshhhhh!" So much fun. Naturally when my girlfriend brought me here, I knew she was something special. (Dont worry baby, I knew before that too - this was just a reminder!) After all, whats better than operating heavy machinery in the unforgiving desert sun?!? Being able to stop after an hour! Moral of the story: I really dug dig this - I have the certificate to prove it!

Here is what is so great about Dig This. The staff, truly. The experience was great. Dave explained everything easily and calmly. Not long after I was using the equipment like a pro. Picking up basketballs with an excavator bucket!! Even better, there is no "up sell". Typically in Vegas there are always the "extras". Not so with Dig This, Dave filmed everything and took pictures with my own camera. That was a very pleasant surprise and was the keep sake I really wanted.

This is definitely my #1 favorite Las Vegas Attraction ever. I got to visit Las Vegas from Feb 4 to Feb 14. On February 8th, my family who lived in Vegas took me there and I was only one on the course operating a Caterpillar 315C L Excavator. My instructor was very cool and he even had me restack the tire pyramid after moving the tires to other side of the course. I gotta say, Dig This is definitely the #1 attraction in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Had a great time doing the "Big Dig" on the dozer! After getting the controls figured out and doing the main digging event, the instructor helped me on practicing exercises I chose to do (grading and back dragging) instead of what was on the normal agenda. The freedom to explore different activities is what made me appreciate these guys the most! Next time I'm in Vegas I will do the excavator dig for sure!

My toddler is obsessed with construction equipment so we brough him as a spectator. He really enjoyed himself. They have a nice patio like area thou can sit and enjoy the action with small children. Everyone was friendly, nice, and happy. We really enjoyed our visit as spectators. Highly recommend bringing the whole family. Great stop on your Vegas vacation.

I visited last weekend on my Vegas trip, and I had a blast! The instructors were informative, helpful, and fun; The dig site perfect for gigantic digging in the dirt. I took the "Big Dig" with the Excavator, and while fairly expensive, it was well worth it. A really fun and unique experience, and I hope to go back and give the Bulldozer a shot.

Everyone at Big Dig was helpful, informative, made for a fun safe day. We had never operated excavators before and it was worth the experience. Looking for something different while Vegas, try this. The certificate given at the end of your dig granted us bragging rights with our friends once we returned home. Totally enjoyed the day.

My wife hated it and gave up lol. The instructor tried his best to get her involved and all credit to him. I think that the value for money was ok as I got it on Groupon so it was cheaper but if I had paid full price i think I would have been underwhelmed but it was still fun

"Dig This" was an amazing experience. I was very nervous but Brian, my bulldozer instructor was so much fun and very patient - I looked like I knew what I was doing before long. This is a unique fun experience and I would recommend this to all. Thank you "Dig This"

A check marked off on my wifes bucket list. She was able to operate a small excavator, under supervision via headset. She had a great time! The staff were friendly and very safety concerned. I was able to observe from a safe distance.

Got this as a birthday gift, I smiled ear to ear the entire time, and the dude directing me while I was using the excavator was phenomenal and hysterical. This is a 100% must do in Vegas!

The place has a nice staff and a good class prior to operating the machinery. Lots of fun, definitely something different to do in Vegas :)
