- From their website: Welcome to Last Chance Tours of Helena. We offer historic tours aboard open-air tour trains and our climate controlled trolley. See the opulent mansion district, marvel at the Cathedral of St. Helena, and roll by our governor’s homes. Cruise by a restored miners’ village, enjoy the unique architecture along Last Chance Gulch, and catch a glimpse of the Old Fire Tower.
- This building was built in a former alley, and the CAFETERIA sign on the old external wall next door is now preserved inside the new space!
- The Cathedral of St. Helena
- Saturday night Gulps on the Gulch, with music, food and drink, and kids dashing and climbing all over the place “Become Part of a Somewhat Organized Community”
