And it’s true what they say, People Make Glasgow ❤️”

Martin is an informative, friendly and excellent guide. The 3-hour excursion is a must do for this beautiful city. I found this tour on the getyourguide app. I was solo and our group was filled out with 3 lovely couples from Florida. Amicable conversation (Rush, Porcupine Tree, St. Andrews, fish mongering) with fellow world travelers. I couldn't ask for a more pleasant experience. Highly recommended!Read more”
