Our instructors walk you through every lever, button, and thing-a-majig that you need to know to maneuver our machines with the grace of a ballerina. After just a short time of in-cab training, you'll be Operating like a Pro! Come dressed for the outside conditions and please wear hard soled and closed toed shoes.

I have always wanted to run and use heavy equipment since I was a little girl. My husband surprised me with this for my 50th birthday, I can not express how excited I was and a little nervous but my instructor Marc was so much fun and informative as he guided me through a headset, I would HIGHLY recommend this place I had an absolute BLAST!!!!!

I had the opportunity to operate the wheel loader for 90 minutes! I was instructed by Marc and he did an excellent job coaching me to operate this machinary with ease. Thanks Dig This for this unforgetable experience.

Went to Dig This with a group of business colleagues and team from my customer and we had a wonderful time. We were able to get out on the equipment quickly after the safety briefing and build new skills and enjoy a very memorable teambuilding activity. Personally, I enjoyed learning how to operate a bulldozer. Everyone from the customer team universally said it was "the best team building activity ever". Marc and the Dig This team did an exceptional job as our hosts, treating us with kindness, understanding, and keeping up the excitement level as well. It was a very memorable evening and I can't wait to get back out to Dig This and try out some of the other equipment and challenges that they offer at a future opportunity.

We surprised our family with a trip to Dig This the day before Thanksgiving. It was hands-down, the best activity we’ve ever done in Las Vegas, if not the best vacation activity we’ve ever had. Marc and Mike were fantastic instructors. They were very patient and funny and kind, even when we struggled to remember which was left and which was right. After a three-minute instructional video you climb right into the cab of a skid steer or an excavator! They even have kids’ digs for the tiniest ones. We highly recommend this activity for families with kids of all ages.

This was a fantastic experience! Every person we encountered working there was positive, happy and made us feel welcome! My instructor, Ron, was the best! He is the perfect guy for instructing a first time and nervous operator. I would recommend this to anyone wanting this kind of experienced!

Came out here with my colleagues for a team bonding activity, and we had an absolute blast! The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and totally in control. They wasted no time in getting us into the machines and operating, but I felt totally safe. I would highly recommend this experience to others!

For an individual dig (ex bid dig excavator/bulldozer) how much actual “play” time do you get?
Brenda B

I think I booked an hour. It was broken into 15 minute increments. 15 for learning the controls, 15 for digging, 15 for stacking tires, and 15 for playing basketball and spinning. Overall, it was enough for me. They may have longer times, but since my family was waiting to see other places, an hour was enough for me.

I work for a construction company and would like to wear my own hiviz vest
Would that be okay?

Rutherford, NJ56 contributions
Probably, but why do that? They don't charge you to borrow a vest so you don't save any money wearing your own, and you had to go to the effort of packing and bringing it.
Can my boyfriend bring our little (10 lbs) dog in the spectator area while I do my aggression session? She would be on a leash and he would be holding her the whole time. She’s very docile.

you're more than welcome to bring your dog as long as the dog is people friendly and kept on a leash.

Hello, Yes, we have a spectator area for you to watch your husbands experience. No charge!
Hi, would you recommend the bulldozer or the excavator? Trying this for the first time.

Hi Maria. That is a question we are still debating among ourselves! We recommend our Mega Dig which allows you to operate both vehicles and you can tell us which one is the best. Let us know if you need any assistance booking it.

How much time total is spent there. If the activity is 90 minutes, or would we be there longer? Just trying to plan around other activities.

Our appointment was at 8 am & we left around 10:30 am. Our instructor allowed as much time as we wanted to take video & pictures. Plus the staff was so friendly we had good conversations with them. We did not feel rushed at all.
