Ghost Story - Richard was a fantastic ghost tour guide—engaging, knowledgeable, and just the right amount of spooky. He brought the stories to life and kept everyone entertained from start to finish. Highly recommend for a fun and eerie night!

Interesting, fun and sometimes myth-busting walking tour - Our knowledgeable guide Isla gave us an interesting, fun and sometimes myth-busting walking tour, which covered the Cathedral, Royal Infirmary, Necropolis and other historic sites on the edges of Glasgow City Centre. The Sunday afternoon tour was aided by glorious weather and some comfortable walking shoes. Isla provided some great sightseeing ideas for future visits. If you've got a couple of hours free it's highly recommended

Thanks Isla! - We had the best time! I mean it, this was a blast. Such a fun tour, with a lot of great information and stories. The walking was very manageable and Isla really knows her stuff. I was quite nervous about walking through the necropolis and hearing ghost stories at night, but I am a total chicken. That being said, I would do this again in a heartbeat.

Great Guide, Terrific Tour! - Absolutely incredible! Our tour guide, Mark, was so knowledgeable and so funny! He had us all belly laughing. He remembered all of our names which was so lovely! The tour itself was fantastic! Walking around eerie parts of Glasgow with some brilliant tales and facts along the way. We took some beautiful photos. I would have loved to walk deeper into the Necropolis but it just gives me an excuse to come back! Would 100% recommend. Its dark and different and just brilliant! Thanks Mark 😊
