Very informative tour - great way to see the main sights of Glasgow, especially if you're only there for a few days. Learned a lot about the city. The hop on hop off bus covers quite a large area, Glasgow is a big city, so a great way to get around the city too. So glad we hopped off at the Riverside Museum - it was brilliant!! Lots of old cars, motorcycles, push bikes, mock old city streets - absolutely excellent. The Dunbartonshire Concert Band happened to be playing there on the afternoon we were there - added to the great atmosphere.

We took the whole tour first as an orientation and then commenced the hop on/off. That gave us a great introduction to the history and layout of Glasgow. We learned different things from different live guides which was an added plus given that we were not at all familiar with Glasgow previously. Everyone (guides, drivers, and those selling tickets were so helpful, friendly, and polite!

Unfortunately through no fault of yours the heavy rain in Glasgow did not let up so the sight-seeing by hop on/hop was ruined. The driver and guide did their job admirably. We enjoyed the craic even it was sometimes corny. We would consider using your tours in further cities we visit.

This tour was great. We were able to get oriented to the city very quickly. Our driver gave a lot of information about each stop which helped us decide where to hop off. Everyone was courteous and really helpful. I can't recommend this tour strongly enough. It was well worth the cost!!

The tour guide had excellent sense of humour showing us around his favorite city even making fun of the road works and all the scaffolding around the city. More tour guides should have a sense of of humour.

Both tour guides were very informative. We had a great time on the bus and the stops were near all the right places. We do these tours wherever we go as they are a great way to see a City. Highly recommend!

On the first day, we had a live tour operator, Neve, who was brilliant. This was a much more interesting experience than plugging in the headphones. Shout out to Neve and Duncan the driver. The tour itself was really interesting with excellent hop on hop off points and whettwd my appetite for a future visit. Lost one star for the comparison between Neve and the plug in version of the tour.
