Fun filled afternoon! Food was excellent, drinks were beautifully presented (we had the gin) and our host was funny and informative. Not the most scenic route through Glasgow but this isn't a tour bus so that was OK. Would highly recommend.

Great idea. Easy transport around the city all day long. And along the way you can listen about the city.

Exactly what I was looking for to give me a summary of the area and get mu bearings

Helen, Nicky and Jim were fantastic! The food and tea were fabulous! So much fun!!!

Such an easy way to see the city with friendly staff too.
