Glasgow Walking Tours

Glasgow Walking Tours - ARRIVE IN GLASGOW AS A TOURIST LEAVE AS A FRIEND !

Dear Dougie,"Thank you very much for the so hospitable city walking tour in Glasgow. It’s very true we arrived in Glasgow as Tourists and left as friends – have a great summertime...........................Theodora, George, Dimitris – Athens, Greece

We left the Argyll Hotel at 17.30 with quick introductions as we walk along Glasgow`s main Sauchiehall street .
Our first main stop was Charing cross where we learned about Glasgow City centre and what it was like to grow up in the city of Glasgow. This was a chance to get our bearings and ask a few questions about the city of Glasgow.
We continued walking up towards woodlands area passing the Trinty Tower, Old Headquaters of Scottish Football and to the Granite staircase. After a slow walk up the Staircase we stop to admire the view. We now headed along Park circus to enter Kelvingrove Park. This Sir Joseph Paxton designed park is a classic example of a Victorian Park. Its design and setting on the banks of the River Kelvin. As we continued walking through the park we learned about the famous monuments and heard about Glasgow`s party park .We stopped at the bandstand to find out about the famous singers and groups who played there.
Crossing the beautiful Kelvin walkway we walked under Glasgow University and learned about it`s famous students . From here we got great views of Glasgows famous Art Galleries . We stopped walking here to find out whats good about the Kelvingrove Art Galleries and Museum and also it`s history . We then went on towards the Transport museum and the Kelvin hall. We learned about what`s there and what famous events happened here.
Now on to the main reason Glasgow has turned into a world famous city. The river Clyde. An easy stroll along the riverbank towards the SSEC . Seeing the Science centre , BBC studio`s and the Glasgow tower. Here we heard about shipbuiding on the Clyde. The Walk now heads passed Big Bertha . The crane built for lifting trains on to ships. The final stop is the Squinty bridge where you can take great photographs of the river .
We then headed back to the Argyll Hotel and Sutherlands Restaurant for 19.30 for a well deserved drink and some great Scottish food .
