The Top Ten Glasgow Guide

Subscribe To This Site

Welcome to Glasgow -
Don't get lost when you get here!

Read my Top Ten Guide to everything Glasgow
and you'll not just visit the City

You'll LIVE it!

Does size really matter?
Now I'll make no bones about it. When it comes to size, Scotland's largest City is no NYC or Tokyo or Paris. But I'll tell you - I've been to NYC and Paris (and hopefully Tokyo soon) and what it lacks in size, this astounding place definitely makes up in stature.

My name is Scott Docherty and I LOVE Glasgow! There now, I admitted it. That much will likely become apparent though when you look around this site (which you're more than welcome to do). I live and breathe the place 24/7, and with my Top Ten Glasgow Guide I hope to make sure that if you're coming to visit, you'll be able to make the best use of your time.

(You've no idea how many times I've visited famous and wonderful cities just to miss their best attractions because my nose spends half its time in some map!)

Glasgow Patter

A City Reborn
Wanna learn how the place gets its spark, the pounding Scottish heart you feel when you walk its streets?

I don't work for the tourist industry, but I live here and truly believe that if you really want to experience the place, you shouldn't just get on that tour bus and sit back for hours on end. I'd recommend that once you've checked into your Glasgow hotel just get out there, roll up the sleeves and muck right in, because that way you'll experience a whole lot more of this historically industrial City that's gloriously revamped itself in recent years!

In my site I'll be taking you through my Top Ten Tips for...

Getting here - I know how to find cheap flights to Glasgow and back, the easiest ways to get your way in, around & out of the airports (parking and car hire tips included), and if you're not flying here I'll show you the stations & transport around the City
Finding a decent hotel near to where you're going (eg. at the airports in the City the hotels are just superb) - Believe me, I've stayed in good and bad, so you won't be misled
Dining at the best places in town, including at least one gem of a restaurant the City has hidden away & you'll be glad to unearth
Cutting out the guidebook stuff you'll find in any city and honing in on Glasgow's real tourist treasures, saving you great time & effort
learning the proud history of the City without being completely bored in the process
and much, much more...

Not just visiting?
So I hope you enjoy my little site. It's not just for those of you just popping in for a visit though. If you're coming to study at Glasgow University for example, or are looking even for estate agents with a view to settling down here for a while, my hope is that this site will give you a good insight not only about where you'll be living, but also on how to pick the best spot for you to settle down here. And in time, you'll even be able to look around here for the top ten places to rent & buy in the City at any given time.
