The hop on hop off bus visits the key points of the city. We visited the Glasgow Cathedral and spent hours in it. The Necropolis was nearby as well. The Kelvingrove was next to one of the stops.

Everyone was very nice. We did the live and recorded commentary buses. If you do live, sit close to the woman speaking or you won’t hear anything on top. Live provides much more content than the prerecorded. I would not do the Glasgow hop on hop off tour again.

If you are stopping here while cruising the stop to get on the bus is about a 5-10 minute walk from the Port. It’s not the first stop so we had to wait on another bus to get some decent seats. The tour itself was good but it was only 11 stops. Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly.
