‘Given a voucher for this tour as a gift. Weren’t sure what to expect as we’ve always lived in Glasgow but it was a really great day out! Our guide was very informative and told us lots of stories about the Glasgow music scene old and new! Even made a stop for a beer. Great way to spend a Saturday afternoon!’ Rating 5/5
‘Quite simply pure dead brilliant!!! I got this tour as a gift from my partner who always picks excellent gifts and this was no exception. The tour guides obviously have a wealth of knowledge about the venues, the musicians, groups, and their history. They were perfect guides. The interaction from both of them made the tour all the better with their wit and anecdotes. Members of the tour are actively encouraged to take part with their stories and memories. What was it I said…Oh aye… pure dead BRILLIANT!’ Rating 5/5
