Great Day On The Red Bus - Myself and my wife went on the tour recently as a Christmas present. What a great day with George the driver and Nicky our host. George took the time before we left to speak to all on the bus and Nicky was informative, witty and generally a great host. The afternoon tea was very good along with the prosecco. I would recommend this tour to any couple or family group.

Fun - It was a hoot! Food and tea were delicious. The tour guide was fun! She got the entire bus singing as she played music and guided us through Glasgow.

Fun and different you should do it! - This was a great different tour around the city. It’s not so much a guided tour but they did tell you about a few places. But they were both fun and super friendly. The food was surprisingly very tasty and enjoyable. A glass of prosecco and a coffee or tea were included but extra drinks were available for purchase. Met some nice people who were also in the tour we went to Sloans and then to china sea for dinner so turned out to be an all around great day.

Perfect way to spend a couple of hours! - Treated husband for his 60th birthday as was stuck for ideas. What a perfect choice. We both had such a fun time with lovely afternoon tea and fizz. Nicola was an amazing host and kept us well entertained throughout the tour. Even a wee sing song on the way back including everyone singing happy birthday to my husband. If in Glasgow it’s a must! We enjoyed ourselves so much we’re booking the tour of Edinburgh for next month. Well done Team on a first class tour x

Wonderful experience - My mother in law, 2 daughters & myself thoroughly enjoyed ourselves on the bus. All the staff were great, had a fantastic singalong with other awesome guests. We were the only ones from Australia and everyone made us feel so welcome. My coeliac daughter had her own catering - it was all just great. Thank you!

A great way to see the city and have a fun tour and tea! - Another great experience with the bus. Ive been on previous occasions and each one was different, but always great. We had a glass of fizz, always welcome. The food selection of sandwiches and cakes was excellent. This was a quieter than usual trip at 12 noon, but it added to the enjoyment too. The 'crew'were terrific, the driver allowed our niece to sit in the cab for a photo op, she loved it! A word about our hostess Helen, fantastic and fun, just the right kind of Person to this, we had some banter with her which added to the day. The highlight of course had to be the stand in for the cappuccino Machine. Go do it and let her tell the story and her impersonation of the machine noise was perfect, now where is my laughing emoji ;-)
