Testimonials – What Our Guests Say About our Must-Sees Walking Tour
At Glasgow Private Tours, we believe the best way to judge a tour company is by hearing directly from customer who have experienced it. We’re incredibly proud of the feedback we receive and the wonderful guests we’ve had the pleasure of guiding through Glasgow’s history, culture, and iconic sights.
Here’s what just some our Tripadvisor guests have to say about this tour:
Zhanna leads the best tours
"We were lucky enough to have Zhanna lead our tour of Glasgow. She was the best. Her knowledge of the city was unbelievable, and she made the tour top-notch. I recommend this highly."
Best Way to See Glasgow
"One of the best walking tours we have ever taken. Molly was superb—very knowledgeable and very passionate about Glasgow. It was truly a great experience."
Amazing tour of downtown Glasgow
"We only had one full day in Glasgow, and this was the perfect way to see all of the major downtown sites. Zharra was phenomenal—knowledgeable, thoughtful, and fun to be with. It was unbelievable how much ground we covered in just over four hours. There was a lot of walking, but there were breaks along the way as we listened to fascinating details at Glasgow Cathedral and the Necropolis. We also learned about important figures in Glasgow history, especially St. Mungo, and the connection between Nelson Mandela and Glasgow. The gorgeous interior of City Hall was a highlight!"
Highly Recommended Tour of Glasgow
"Our tour guide, Zhanna, was outstanding. She was very knowledgeable, discussing a lot of British/Scottish history, which we loved. We learned all about Saint Mungo, the patron saint of Glasgow. We walked through the Necropolis and learned about the body snatchers of the past. We had planned to visit the Glasgow Cathedral the following day, but Zhanna brought us into the cathedral as part of this tour and discussed its history. This freed us up to visit the Gallery of Modern Art, the Glasgow Police Museum, and a Willow Tea Room! We walked through Glasgow Green and down by the River Clyde, all the while learning about the City of Glasgow."
A great tour
"In spite of the rain, we had a great time on the Glasgow walking tour yesterday. Scott, our guide, was excellent—very knowledgeable and personable. Our driver, Mark, to and from the cruise ship, went totally out of his way to show us more sights. We recommend the tour to anyone."
Glasgow...a delightful city! Thank you Molly :-)
"In July 2024, my husband and I spent one and a half weeks in Ireland. We were so fortunate to take a private tour with Glasgow Private Tours (half-day) with Molly. It was absolutely a wonderful and exciting tour. Molly is extremely bright; her knowledge of history and narratives is amazing. We had such a delightful day with her. She has an awesome sweet and witty personality. The city became alive because of her. We recommend Molly 100%. You will not regret it!"
Excellent Guide, Zhanna!
"Zhanna our tour guide was AMAZING!!! She was so knowledgeable and held our interest the whole time. She knows Glasgow well and took us to the well-known spots as well as the best-kept secrets. She escorted us around the city to give us the history while pointing out the important sites. The vista points were incredible. She made our short trip to Glasgow so memorable, and because of her, we want to return for a longer visit."
Amazing Tour of Glasgow
"So informative! I sadly forgot our guide’s name (he is Irish—maybe Scott?) but he was fabulous. So glad that we took the tour. It gave me a new appreciation for the city. We had a great time."
Great overview of the city
"Molly took us on a walking tour across Glasgow. We learned so much. Without this tour, we would have missed out on some of the city's history and culture. Generally, I've found most guides are middle-aged or older. Molly is a university student, and my college-student children really enjoyed her perspectives."
Most enjoyable and insightful tour
"Would not have been able to appreciate this interesting city without the guidance of Zhanna. Thank you, Zhanna, for the interesting stories. You have a knack for mixing details, facts, and fun together. Very well done. Glasgow should be proud of you."
Great tour!
"We loved our tour with Zhanna. It was super informative and fun! She was so sweet and knowledgeable. We learned a lot and enjoyed walking around the city with her. It’s a great way to see a lot of sites at once while learning the rich history of Glasgow."
The best walking tour!
"Molly is truly a gem, and I feel so fortunate to have been able to meet her while in Glasgow. She knows the precise details of so many historical events in Glasgow—it is exceptionally impressive. I, unfortunately, got the exact kind of weather one would expect in Scotland in late September during my stay there, and yet she made a 4-hour walking tour 100% worth it."
Walk with a Private Tour!!!!
"Our tour guide was informative, friendly, and engaging!!! She told us so much history and made us feel like we were walking along with an extended family member. Hands down, an amazing experience and would recommend to everyone visiting this grand city!!!"
Great day in Glasgow
"Absolutely fantastic experience from initial communication with Nick to the fabulous tour given by Zhanna. Everything was handled professionally and with warmth and care. We four ladies had a lovely time, and the airport transfers were well coordinated too. Absolutely recommend this tour."
Very informative guide!
"Our guide gave us a great private tour of historic Glasgow. We were rather surprised at her depth of knowledge and facts at her fingertips whenever we asked a question. Really good!"
Terrific walking tour!
"Cheers to Molly, our tour guide! She’s a Glasgow treasure! Our tour was interesting and fun. Molly was very knowledgeable, and her enthusiasm for Glasgow was infectious!"
The Perfect 1/2 Day Tour
"We had scheduled a half-day tour of Glasgow, and our tour guide ended up being Molly. She was great from the beginning to the end. Our driver had driven us from the cruise ship terminal into Glasgow, and we arrived at the city center a bit early. Molly was so accommodating and was there to meet us as soon as we pulled up. She knows her history of Glasgow and is so enthusiastic about all of it. She answered our questions and really pointed out some of the hidden treasures of Glasgow. We had a wonderful half-day with Molly, and I highly recommend this tour, especially if you only have a day to spend in the city."
