We had limited time and told him of our desires and he was able accommodate us. So fun to see the beautiful parts of Scotland. Next time we need to go for over a week if not 2 weeks. They have a fancy Mercedes van that seats 7 people comfortably. Only 2 of us in our party so we had plenty of space for souvenirs. Highly recommend this private tour to anyone looking to have a totally customized itinerary or a set scheduled 'must see' itinerary. There are so many things to see and do in this beautiful nation (or country?) of the UK.

He is very knowledgeable about his country and will find you anywhere you want to go and see anything you want to see. His vehicle is roomy and very nice and comfortable. He is also an excellent and skilled driver. He takes the time to find out what is available in each area you are interested in and will recommend things for you to do. He also is very conscious of your safety at all times. All in all, I would recommend his tour company to anyone looking for a safe, fun tour in Scotland.

As a local, I've actually done the tour bus a few times with visitors from Australia and think it's…read morea good way of getting an overview of Glasgow and showing people the sights. As Jody B was in Glasgow for the day, I thought this was the best way of seeing everything with the added bonus of being able to hop off to go drinking in the West End. Buses depart from George Square (but I believe you can get on at any of the stops) and it takes about 1 hour 20 minutes to do a full loop of the tour - taking in some of Merchant City & the East End, the river and the West End. It's £14 per adult (you can save a measly £1 if you book online) which I think is a little steep actually - it was better value when that ticket got you two days of entertainment. There's commentary as you go around - I thought our guide was just "ok" - some of the pubs he pointed out as recommendations aren't places I'd recommend anyone go, let alone a tourist to Glasgow and sometimes he'd forget what he was saying and just trail off. It was kind of entertaining, but compared to other guides I've had on the bus previously, this guy was just average. We stayed on the bus until Kelvingrove and then got off to wander around the museum and then go drinking in Finnieston. It's a good way of seeing Glasgow but like I said earlier, I'm not sure that's worth £14 per adult. Maybe we should've just had a taxi drive us around.

**Terrible Experience with Sightseeing Hop-On Bus in Glasgow - Avoid at All Costs!**…read more I purchased two 2-day tickets for the Sightseeing Hop-On Bus in Glasgow for August 2-3, 2025, expecting a smooth and enjoyable tour of the city. Instead, I was met with **unprofessionalism, dishonesty, and a complete waste of time and money**. On August 3, I planned to take the **Yellow Route**, but guess what? **The bus never showed up!** There was **no notice, no warning, no apology**--just complete silence from the company. I stood at the **"Celtic" stadium stop** for **over an hour in scorching heat**, waiting for a bus that never arrived. Eventually, I had to **spend extra money on a taxi** just to get to the city centre. Because of this **shocking lack of service**, I **missed out on key tourist attractions** I had planned to visit. I **flew all the way to the UK**, paid for hotels, and invested time and money into this trip, only to have my plans ruined by this **unreliable company**. The **moral distress** of being stranded without explanation is just the icing on the cake. **Save your money and your sanity--DO NOT book with this company!** Zero stars if I could.

The guide was fantastic - we had Tony - and walked us through the history of the company before the tour. It was great not only to hear about the history of Tennents, but also a bit about the cultural and labor history of beer. You get to actually walk through the working factory and see every step of the process. The bar at the end is cool as well, we opted for the flight featuring exported beers. Really unique chance to try some things not available locally. Cannot recommend this attraction enough.

While in Scotland, one of our top things to do was to see Loch Ness. With a little tooling around…read moreonline, I found Highland Tours, which offers a variety of single and multi-day tours around Scotland. They had a single day (about 12 hours total) bus tour of Loch Ness and the Highlands, which was perfect for us. The bus left from Edinburgh, and left right on time. We traveled through a suburban town and eventually onto a main road that lead us up the eastern highlands. This area was mostly covered with green lands, hills, and sheep. Thousands of sheep. We made a stop in a small town where one could get a drink or snack at the local coffee shop, but unfortunately, being a Sunday, the rest of the town was closed. We continued on our tour, eventually stopping at Loch Ness. Loch Ness was amazing. We had the option of taking a 45 minute cruise on the Loch, which was cold, windy, and amazing. After the cruise, we had plenty of free time to check out the gift shop and have a bite to eat before having to be back on the bus. The tour then proceeded down through the Western Highlands. There, we saw some of the most dramatic and beautiful landscapes. We stopped at an area called Glencoe, which was quite dreary but breathtaking. We had about 15 minutes on the side of the road just to observe and take pictures of the enormous green hills, rocks and waterfalls. Because our group was organized an on time returning to the bus after each stop, our tour guide treated us to a couple of extra stops. We stopped at a moving war memorial, a pretty large gift shop, and another rest stop that offered gift shops and places to eat. Our last stop was in Stirling, where we got out of the bus to observe the William Wallace monument. (Side note, the Wallace monument was the one thing I really wanted to see up close and didn't get to do on my trip. Next time, I'll make it!) The entire bus tour lasted about 12 hours, returning us to Edinburgh in time for a late dinner. It was a great way to see a large portion of Scotland's beautiful landscape in one day, and gave us ideas of where we'd like to re-visit and spend more time when we return. I would recommend this tour group, and would try another one of their one-day tours in the future.

(Bet you felt a little bit inside you to imagine pulling the whistle). I have been wanting to go on this tour for many many years but it always fills up so quickly. So note, book up as soon as you can, way far in advance. Basically like booking a train going down south but you always end up missing out on those advance tickets. Has anyone ever managed to get them? Anyway off "track" there. Haw haw, see what I did. Behold the group of very excited Yelpers in the middle of the Glasgow Central concourse geared up and ready to embrace what was to lie ahead in our tour. We were greeted by our tour guide, Vic, nae Bob, just Vic but this guy didn't need no side kick. We were suited and booted with our fashionable Network Rail hi-vis and safety helmet. I loved it, I felt like a pure engineer like. Ha, well kinda! It was so interesting and the things that you will see and hear are unbelievable. I thoroughly enjoyed it and Vic was so knowledgeable, I loved his attention to detail especially with dates. His stories really brought the tour alive. I was a bit gutted we couldn't get out on the roof as it was icy. He explained it was a bit catch 22, when it's clear then the engineers like to get up and do repairs. Fair dos! This was a really brilliant way to spend a few hours of your day. If you can book up soon as I promise you will not be disappointed. I thank Briony C. for managing to book it for us and hopefully later on in the year when they've added more to the tour we will go back and explore more of Central Station. Excited much!

We had tried phoning them the week in between xmas and when we were leaving for the trip but only got an answering machine as you can imagine we thought we were not going to get on our trip. They said that they had tried to contact us on numerous occasions by telephone but could not contact us, this is a lie as we have an answering service. They had managed to contact us regarding paying for our trip so they must have had our correct number. We were very disappointed with the service provided and would never travel with this company again or recommend them. We did eventually get to ireland but the stress we went through before hand was just awful, never got any apology for our distress very disappointing. We were also supposed to go on a trip while we were in Ireland but that never happened as driver basically said that only one person wanted to go and the pace would be all shut up. Rate for this business is nil.
