Excellent experience - stop right outside of the Hilton Garden Hotel. This service enabled me to discover Glasgow with ease. Drivers were friendly and helpful. Buses were consistently punctual. Would definitely travel with City Sightseeing, Glasgow again.

Great trip round the city. The drivers were all excellent and helpful. We hopped off a few times and the drivers were able to give us guidance and directions to various sites.

Seemed like a good idea, some positives but major negatives too. The online booking was easy, the information provided had stated to wait at Bus Stop 1, which we did for over half an hour. We decided to walk to our first visit, Glasgow Cathedral, then we saw 2 buses at stop 2. Having enquired with one driver, were told that stop 1, 5, etc were out of use! Yet, no such information came through on the app. I messaged several times on the chat but no reply to any messages! We eventually got on to another bus, the audio was very good. Lots of useful information. We got off again on 11a, then waited well over 30 minutes again, in the end we had to call an uber for the rest of our journey.

The driver was brilliant. The tour was great.I would throughly recommend you take a tour on the open top bus. It gives you a great insight about Glasgow as a city.

It was a good bus tour. There was lots to see. The stop we got on at had nothing to confirm it was the correct stop. I had contacted the company and they sent me a Google pin, it was a different place to what the map shows. A little sign on the bus stop would have been really useful. I note most of the pick up points did have that.

Did the Glasgow bus tour with friends! Would highly recommend. Great fun. Was a great way to see the city and all the great places the city has to offer. Make sure you book a live interactive speaker as they give you lots of funny stories. Thank you Donna for the wonderful tour.

Typical hop on/off bus tour. Not much to do in Glasgow, so easy way to pass the time. Bus was running early and lots of construction, so had a harder time catching it than I wish I had.

Good tour with lots of interesting information. A tip would be make sure you start before 2:30 or start at stop 1 so you get to go all the way round. Also go upstairs to get a better view.

A great way to see the highlights of the city and learn some of it’s history, especially if you don’t have a lot of time.
