Great tour!
Bruce was very knowledgeable and showed us a great time. We highly recommend this walking tour. Even followed up to a question I had about the clocks.

Sophie could not have been more knowledgeable and entertaining on our tour of Glasgow!! She clearly loves the city knows the history and is just a joy!!!
LauraDAgrosa, Apr 2026
Meeting at St. George square is tricky since it’s closed. We were lucky that Gary found us wandering around the square
Gary was a great guide. Very knowledgeable
Heidi_J, Apr 2026
Sophie was an amazing guide. She was so knowledgeable, kind, and fun. She more than adequately filled our time with the history and de development of Glasgow. Her love for her city was obviously. I highly recommended this tour.
Gary_P, Apr 2026
Be prepared to walk and climb. Our tour guide Sophie was knowledgeable about her city and gave us great insight into the development of Glasgow as well as the beauty of the botanical gardens
Leslie_B, Apr 2026
You walk a lot but our guide was accommodating to our needs. Our guide, Valentin, was extremely knowledgeable and easy to talk to. A great experience!
Charles_H, Mar 2026

Lots and lots of walking. A somewhat interesting city but did not come across as a must see. Would probably not do again.

Very interesting and informative
The guide was knowledgeable about life in Glasgow for locals and very accommodating
Courtney_L, Oct 2025
Very informative, and interesting. Guide tailored the tour with what our interests were. Only wished the stories told were done more as we continued to walk vs stand. Historial stories took a good amount of time and we may have been able to see more. Overall a very good tour.

Keith was info contact with us several week before our tour with him making sure we knew exactly where to meet him. He dedicated way more than 3 hours to us. He is a knowledgeable and pure blooded Glasgownian( hope I wrote that correctly). He shared the history,the architecture, the fortunate and unfortunate events that shaped Glasgow to what it is today. He spoke not only of the past but of the actual life in Glasgow. Very interesting and enlightening, we are so grateful to him for the xtra time he gave us and that his Spanish is impeccable making it thoroughly enjoyable.

Keith is an excellent guide and made the walking tour of Glasgow an amazing experience. He is very knowledgeable, personable and a Glaswegian to the core. Strongly recommend this tour
Suzanne_S, Sep 2025
This was a fabulous tour! I think a lot of this tour depends on your guide. Ours was a PhD student in architecture so we got a lot of great insight into the buildings and structures in Glasgow. Noor was absolutely delightful and gave us a fabulous tour. We've been recommending it to everyone!
Peter_B, Sep 2025
Our tour guide was Kieth M..
This gentlemen gave us such a deep insight into Glasgows history. He was literally a walking encyclopedia of history - simply a pleasure to listen to.
My wife & myself thoroughly enjoyed every minute of the tour.
I would highly recommend this tour - and certainly with Kieth M if he is available.
Eric_F, Aug 2025
Chris is a great guide and provided a real inside view of Glasgow. His knowledge of local history was good and there was a lot of fun discussion.
Courtney_F, Jul 2025
I am visiting for the first time and had half a day here. Josh was our tour guide and he was amazing! He was enthusiastic , friendly, and asked for our input on if we had specific places we wanted to visit. He was very knowledgeable and was able to answer all of our questions as he grew up in the area.
Christopher_H, Jul 2025
My guide, Keith MacKenzie was a consummate pro. A native Glaswegian who brought historical knowledge, combined with his natural ability to "story-tell"...all of which results in an incredibly enjoyable experience.
David_R, Jul 2025
Keith was a very enthusiastic guide with a detailed and passionate knowledge about Glasgow. We saw and learned things that we had not expected to discover about the city. He happily changed times to suit us and insisted on waiting with us at the station at the find of the tour to make sure we got on the right train.
Edward_K, Jun 2025
Excellent guide, well informed and pleased to share her knowledge and to move at our pace. Excellent experience!
Daphne_D, Jun 2025
Our guide was nice but he didn’t tell us much about the history of the areas we visited - he basically just walked us to some of the key attractions: the cathedral, necropolis, art gallery… I didn’t learn much, mostly saw things. I could have just used Google maps to guide me around for free.
Response from Host, Jun 2025
Hi Daphne,
Thank you for your feedback. While we’re glad you found your guide pleasant, we’re sorry the tour didn’t offer the historical depth you were looking for.
We’ve reached out to you by email to follow up. Please accept our sincere apologies, and we hope to provide a more informative and engaging tour in the future.
Warm wishes,

Mada was very friendly and helpful with questions about our interests beforehand, and had many suggestions, which was very promising. We were on a private tour with her. We have been on many tours in different places, and on reflection, it could have been better. We have a few suggestions: She could have been more prepared with local history (i.e. when was Glasgow made a burg/village/city), and some basic knowledge of the most famous artists/ benefactors of the places on our tour. She obviously had not visited some of the other places she recommended to us, since she was unaware they had been closed/under renovation for some time. We mentioned we liked art, so our tour ended at an art gallery an hour early, but she did not have anything else to add at that point. It was apparent she had not researched the places on the tour in any depth, since we were all reading the plaques/information together and it seemed new to her as well. She had great potential, but needed to be better prepared.

Gary was the best very friendly and knowledgeable. He was very friendly and patient with my sister and I. It was our first time coming to Scotland Gary made sure to answer all of our questions. I really appreciated the time and care Gary took to answer all of our questions. I love Viator they make reserving tours and excursions super easy!
ELIZABETH_S, May 2025
Very good, enjoyable walking tour. Guide was very accommodating. Took us to great sights. He could have given us more about history and architectural styles and time periods.
