Explore Glasgow the way you want to, spend quality time with a local and get a real taste for our beautiful city. With flexible meeting and end points, and a dedicated local guide, maximise your time in Glasgow on a private tour.

Discover the affluent and prosperous area of Glasgow’s West End with its own unique history and culture. Home to the iconic University of Glasgow, Scotland’s most visited Kelvingrove Art Gallery & Museum and the relaxing Botanic Gardens, the West End is a must visit on any trip to Glasgow. During this 1.5 hour tour we will make the ordinary, extraordinary as you hear the stories of Glasgow's development during the ages. From Kibble Palace at the Botanic Gardens to the hidden railway line and the Lady of the Lake in Kelvingrove Park, we'll meander down the quaint cobbled lanes of the West End to uncover the history and stories that make this area so unique.

The tour will cover all of the sites of the West End including the Botanic Gardens, Ashton Lane, University of Glasgow, Kelvingrove Park & Museum as well as some hidden treasures of the city that you wouldn't see by yourself!

It costs £65 for a group of up to 6 then only £10pp. The duration of the tour is 1.5-2 hours. You can choose your start time in the booking form. We can start the tour at the central location of the Great Western Road entrance to the Botanic Gardens, or we can meet at your hotel (email us to change start location).
