Exceptional West End Experience!

Published on Sep, 2024

We had an exceptional private tour with Lauren - learned so much history and folklore about Glasgow and the University of Glasgow. Lauren was so knowledgeable and so lovely to spend time with, and we loved hearing about her family connection to the University. We really enjoyed Ashton Lane and dined afterwards at the Ubiquitous Chip (had the Haggis and it was so good!) HIGHLY recommend this tour of the West End!!

Best way to spend an afternoon!

Published on Sep, 2018

What a deal! Preregister for a walking tour, pay when you arrive, and spend the time walking with Karen who not only has a passion for her city, but can communicate with a group clearly and captivatingly.

Great tour in the heart of Glasgow

Published on Jul, 2018

I had literally just arrived in the city so this tour was a wonderful way to get my feet on the ground. Our guide was funny, informative, and gave a lot of historical and cultural background to wherever we went. If you're looking for a good way to kick off a Glasgow visit this is a great place to start.
