It was great to be able to get around & see the city how we wanted. We were disappointed that we weren’t given explicit information about how to handle the stops we wanted. We thought the bus stopped at every one, so missed seeing some sights.

The hop on hop off Glasgow bus tour is a great way to see and explore the city. The buses are on time and stops at major points of the city. The narration was very informative and on point with the tour area. Overall, a great bus tour.

A very good way to quickly spot sights you may want to see in more detail. It’s easy to get off at a stop: just press one of the buttons dotted around the bus, and don’t forget to hold your hand out when you see another red or yellow route bus that you want to board, otherwise it may not stop!

Great place to sit. The traffic is real. We sat more than we moved. 3.5 hours is unrealistic due to the traffic. The commentary was limited for historical information of all there was to see. Lastly the bus went over the same roads multiple times which slowed progress down. Given the traffic, it was frustrating to sit in the same place repeatedly. For example we circled “Big Ben” at least four times from different angles and the same. The staff were wonderful. The ride could be much better with a live commentator & less repeats of the same area given all the traffic.
