Sophie was a superb guide. We can’t say enough good things about the quality of our tour or her infectious exuberance.

Private 4 person tour was amazing! Our tour guide Suzi tailored it to us amazingly well, after getting a very quick read on our personalities and interests! We would’ve loved to have her hang out with us for the rest of the day. She was such fun and so knowledgeable.! Her insight into the city, the history and the art, was superb! We had a free day with a car the day after, and she created an amazing recommended itinerary for us, which we followed!

Very, very friendly guide who really knows and loves Glasgow. She was punctual and pleasant and accommodating of our special requests.

We thoroughly enjoyed our walking trip with Stephen. He was a Glaswegian from birth and has such a unique and interesting compilation of facts, knowledge, and perspectives to share that were truly impressive. We covered a great deal of ground in our 3+ hours and felt as though we would not have gotten as much out of the experience if we were on our own!

My family and I had a tour with Mary on 6/23/23 and it was great! Mary was friendly, informative, and entertaining. We got a great overview of the city, covered history and modern events, and had a genuinely great time.

Hi Matthew,
We are so glad that you enjoyed your 3hr tour with Mary in Glasgow and will pass along your kind comments.

Our guide Mary was very knowledgeable, funny & very personable. She had info on the history, art & architecture of each site & had great stories about each site. We would highly recommend her. It was well worth the 3 hours to learn about Glasgow from a young Glaswegian.
