Top Glasgow Bus Tours

Great tour of some interesting historical landmarks in the area north of Glasgow & Edinburgh. It was themed around the Outlander tv programne, but you didn't need to be a fan to appreciate the history. One castle we visited was used for the filming of Monty Python & the Holy Grail and 'horses' were available to purchase from their gift shop! The tour was hosted by Grant - a lovely local guy - with lots of interesting historical facts & fascinating snippets to bring the journey to life. A fab day out!

I’m going to begin by saying our tour guide, Jim Robertson with Timberbush was so incredibly wonderful, friendly and professional, a great storyteller and knew his stuff! . And his exemplary driving of those hair raising back roads was nothing short of spectacular, and I was never concerned with safety. . We had such a great time with Jim for three days. And yes - he looked quite handsome in his kilt!! Thank you again to Jim for this tour and your extra surprises! This is an amazing, awesome, mind blowing experience. The sheer beauty and ruggedness of the Isle of Skye can’t be described in words. It’s like nothing you’ve ever imagined. Be prepared to walk and move around a lot - even hike some steep hills on rough terrain. It’s windy and damp - not freezing in October - but dress for a cold rainy day. The town of Portree had great restaurants and bars and was fun to explore. I would recommend making reservations - they’re all very popular! Our accommodations at the Tongadale Hotel were quite cozy and wonderful with a delicious breakfast, and staff very friendly and accommodating. I so highly recommend this tour that I will gladly do it again if I ever get the opportunity to be lucky enough to do it!

Arriving in Greenock on princess ship and very easily found the Timberbush tour guides and parking area of private tour buses. The people who previously complained about that must need their hands held every step of the way. Wee Davie was a fabulous tour guide and driver. Yes, he’s Scottish so yes he has an accent. How can you expect otherwise? But we acclimated quickly and enjoyed his very informative and educated commentary. Stirling is a quaint town and nice castle to visit. Definitely prebook castle tickets and dress in layers! Callandar was a great town to have a delicious lunch in the MHOR bread shop. Oh my the pastries are BEYOND! Great souvenirs to be purchased in the local shops there. Lovely stop to feed some cows and nice visit to Loch Lomond complete with a quick visit to a whiskey shop where you can buy locally distilled whiskey. A long day but broken up and a great way to spend your port day! Wee Davie was a highlight with his fun sense of humor.

Great day trip from Edinburgh. Scott met us at the rail station and led us through the city in an informative and relaxed tour. He was great at showing us historical and cultural ( murals were beautiful ) points of interest. He also shared spots to get a great meal, which we did take his advice for a delicious lunch at an Italian restaurant.

It is a long day and would be much better to take in the summer, less chance of rain and fog to hide the beauty of the Highlands. Even though it was a wet day our tour guide was great. She talked about the history of Scotland and had many interesting tidbits about the area we were visiting. She stayed alert to the weather and tried to make the trip as pleasant as possible.

A friend was visiting the city for the first time, I don't really know much about it myself so thought a guided walk would be interesting for both of us. We had the guide, Grace, to ourselves for the first 15 minutes as the other attendees had been held up. Grace was easy to chat with, very knowledgeable and keen to let us know all about the areas we visited. I definately know what I'd like more time to see when I go back in the future. Thank you, Grace 😀

Liberty our guide was informative and personal . She made the 4 hour tour whiz by with her wealth of information. If you want a 4 hour walking tour of Glasgow … Liberty is the one for you. She is highly educated and whatever questions you have for her, she is equipped to answer.

Wonderful way to combine tea time with a visual tour of city!! The food was so good we were stuffed-plenty of carbs, sweets, tea, champagne and gin overfilled our tummies ( including gluten free!!). Had bathroom break halfway thank goodness. Ended with a great sing along through the streets. The tour didn’t go deep into historical facts on every turn BUT THAT IS OK!! We got a visual tour of the circumference of city to help us acclimate to Glasgow while enjoying a unique fun time inside bus. The three bus hosts were tremendous and worked their tails off to make sure we had everything we needed including incredible gluten free trays for my friend!!!
