Glasgow Luxury Private Day Tour from Edinburgh

8 hoursFree Cancellation

I'm a Glasgow-born chef and I lead food tours of this wonderful-but-underrated city. I've worked in some of the city's best dining spots, cooked at Scotland's first Michelin two-star restaurant, and moonlighted in stand-up comedy. Both Glasgow and Scottish food don't get the attention they deserve, and I aim to show people another side to the city and its unique cuisine. Although my tours use food as the jumping-off point, it's not entirely about eating. We talk about Glasgow's history and its role in the British Empire, the city's rough-and-tumble culture, and even learn some Glaswegian slang. I led food tours in Cambodia for many years and am delighted to be back in my home town, sharing with visitors the city that I love.

Experience the magic of GPS on this self-guided walking tour through Glasgow. Three hundred years ago the wider Glasgow area was mostly countryside, with the Cathedral at its centre. The city began to change in the 1500s when Scotland became a Protestant country. Lucrative pilgrimages to Glasgow that had long been made by Roman Catholics ended, replaced by tobacco from America. You’ll hear how Glasgow went from surviving to thriving, transitioning from the tobacco trade to cotton and, later, heavy engineering to eventually become the burgeoning ‘Second City’ of the Empire. How did these merchants become wealthy beyond our imaginings? Slavery. We’ll explore Glasgow’s roles in slavery and its abolition while we walk the streets of the Merchant City district, discovering how the city developed from the 1600s until today. Everywhere you turn, from George Square to the Royal Exchange Square, you’ll encounter the wealth of Glasgow’s merchants written in stone.

Agnes was great. We had a...

Agnes was great. We had a big group and she took the time to speak to everyone and find out where they were from. She was engaging and informative. She seemed honestly interested in the history she was telling us and I think that makes a big difference. She wasn’t just reading a script, but wanted the stories to matter. Excellent job!

Magical and historic

We had a really good time - thanks to Paulus. He is knowledgeable and a great storyteller. If you need a city break, the get away to magical highlands should be on your list! One key note: do try whiskey ice cream from the Scotch corner:) this is out of the world.

Great tour!

This was a wonderful tour. Ben was our guide and he was fantastic. He made the history entertaining and informative. We got so much more out of the experience than if we’d just gone to the castle on our own. We did the 10 AM tour, then watched the 1:00 cannon firing and explored the museums.

Loc Ness day tour

This was an excellent tour. I was very skeptical about being in the minivan for 12hours but it turned out to be extremely comfortable and very pleasant. This was the best tour out of all the once I took as I love scenic places and we sure had plenty of them. The scenery was stunning with the mountains and the locs . Our driver Richard(Rico) was full of little facts and was very entertaining and engaging. The time passed quickly. I loved this tour a lot.

Historical Edinburgh Castle with Intriguing History

This is a great tour when the historical narrative is included. Koffe was exceptional at framing the history with the experience. He was the best narrator for a tour I have taken. I felt like I received 1,000 years of history in 90 minutes in a well-spoken, clear and exciting story. I would highly recommend this tour and an excellent tour guide like Koffe.

It was a long day, but it was a great day!

This tour was a great way to end my last day in Edinburgh. Kudos to our driver; he was fun, kept us safe, and his enthusiasm was a highlight of the day. It was a nice and sunny day, which was ideal for sightseeing and taking photos on a tour like this. I've always wanted to see Loch Ness, and this was a great way to experience it. Overall, I had a lot of fun on this tour. I enjoyed getting to know some of the people on the bus; they all seemed to enjoy the tour as well, and I would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a day of fun and adventure!

Great trip with Neil

Neil was a great driver and guide, offering Scottish history, fun pop culture facts (we pass many filming locations), and a curated music playlist. It’s a long day but he kept us on schedule without rushing us, and it goes by fairly quickly thanks to Neil’s stories, several stops, and incredible views. He had great recommendations for each stop as well, including a perfect viewing point for the train at the viaduct. Recommended for anyone visiting Edinburgh who isn’t renting a car.
