Entertaining and informative! The driver/guide was very knowledgeable without being stuffy. We enjoyed the sites and found other places to visit while riding along.

The trolley tour is the best way to see the city. The driver will take you down to most of the historic district, as well as to other hot spot locations. We were able to see the downtown and also the location of the mining museam. Our driver was knowledgable and friendly and it was a good time. Our trolley... More

I only had a day in Butte so I took in this trip and was delighted I did. Our guide Chris was a teacher at the local school, who worked on the tour during the summer. As the only Irish person on the tour I was a bit of a novelty but Chris gave us an excellent insight into the... More

We had taken the 2 hour tour and found it so informative. Our driver was a geologist and had so many interesting stories about the city. He took us all over - stopped the trolley at different locations and told us the story of what had happened years ago. We thoroughly enjoyed this and would highly recommend it

The trolley tour was great. Very informative about the history of the city and its present day plans. Denny was fantastic. He made the tour fun and most enjoyable. Suggest you take the trolley tour when you first get to town. Denny provided a wealth of information of other things to do in the town and the area, from other... More

The trolley driver did an excellent job. He had lived in the area his entire life and shared so many stories with us, it was wonderful!

We had the advantage of having the local high school history teacher run the tour. Butte has an amazing history and this a great way to get introduced. The tour also stops at the Berkley Pit (included in the fee) if you are interested.

My husband and I took the almost sold out tour on a Saturday morning. We were fortunate to have beautiful weather, which really helped make it more enjoyable. We obviously had the same tour guide as docj9000, as our tour guide used the "mining town" line several times. He was *very* passionate about the town as having grown up in... More
