Discover the dark history of Glasgow

With flexible meeting and end points, and a dedicated local guide, maximise your time in Glasgow on a private tour.

A city well-known for its turbulent past, Glasgow has a lot of secrets. Built by industry, shaped by its working class, and run by gangs operating out of ice-cream vans.

This 1.5 hour tour with a local guide will take you on a walk in the darker side of Glasgow’s history - some centuries ago, some decades, and some still happening in the city today.
