Edinburgh: Privately Guided Day Tour of Glasgow in Luxury Minivan
Overview
Beginning at one of Glasgow's oldest and most impressive structures, Glasgow Cathedral, you’ll embark on a journey through the very best of Glasgow.
Moving into what’s left of medieval Glasgow, you’ll hear stories from your private, local guide about the significance of Trongate and how it shaped the city.
From here, you’ll venture into the city centre through George Square and to the water’s edge to see the Finnieston Crane - an icon from Glasgow’s shipbuilding legacy.
Next, you’ll get to discover the iconic buildings of the West End, including Glasgow University and the People's Palace at Glasgow Green before visiting one of the city’s oldest quarters: the Merchant City.
