How to Book
Stop looking at that tour bus!
One of the most pleasing things about touring Glasgow that folks tend to forget about is that whilst it's a City that’ll grab your attention and reverse your expectations from the moment you set foot here, given its location in the Central Belt of Scotland, Glasgow can also change its hat and become very easily the foundation of an unforgettable adventure into the Country beyond.
So picture this for a minute.
Standing on the edge of Loch Duich, near the lsle of Skye, as the fresh salty breeze whips through your hair, you peer into the haze to get a better glimpse of the stunningly romantic Eilean Donan Castle. All you can hear is the whistling of the wind, the crunch of the gravel under your feet and your measured breath as it takes in the famously pure Scottish air.
And then, the sound of utter panic as the tour bus starts to move away.
Let’s face it, we’ve all been there, hustled by the zealous or otherwise bored tourist guide around magnificent attractions like this, bundled back onto the bus simply to ensure you’re kept on schedule, when all you really want to do is to take some time to enjoy the place, try to feel the experience so that your brain tucks away a few cherished memories instead of being whipped into the usual frenzied rush to find the best photo opportunity within a very short space of time.
So how does this sound? A bespoke tour of Glasgow and beyond, tailored for you, catering to your own needs, timescales & requests every step of the way. I’ve built this page to introduce you to the idea of arranging a personal guide during your travels, because for me, without a shadow of a doubt a personalised tour of Glasgow and the rest of Scotland completely trumps any generic Glasgow tour bus trip you’ll find, because it goes without saying that everyone wants different things from their visits here.
It’s like, the type of people who normally book personalised tours usually want different things out of their time in Glasgow and Scotland. Not one of them has ever been the same. However, what they do have in common is that they’re usually more discerning, more demanding, more individual, slightly more adventurous, and without exception, they totally dislike the idea of larger bus tour groups which offer very structured and rigid schedules.
Personalised tours are aimed at those who want to do what they want to do, go where they want to go, and see what they want to see. And if you’re not sure of the specifics of a trip, your guide'll work with you and discuss exactly what you’re looking for - whether you’ve got an idea, a particular theme or even just a dream, they tend to make it happen for you.
I’ve said elsewhere on the site that with this City, sitting ashen-faced on the Glasgow tour bus will ensure that my home town will leave you with nothing more than empty photos for a soon-to-be-dusty album. If you muck right in, give her something of yourself, only then will Glasgow show you her true colours, and the same applies for everywhere else in Scotland as far as I’m concerned.

This is
your
tour
There’s no such thing as a typical Glasgow tour or Scottish tour, as each tour is as unique as each guest, but you can expect nothing less than viewing and talking about the wonderful scenery and architecture, and learning as you go about the Scottish way of life, our culture, customs, traditions and history.
In between you could stop at those quaint little tea shops, rustic old pubs, or eat at restaurants serving up the finest food, places you won’t find in the glossy guide books. You could stay overnight at incredible B&B's or luxury hotels, whatever you desire, and you'll end up with some spectacular memories to treasure for the rest of your life, well, that is or until you come back again!
