Tour description
Glasgow is currently one of the most visited cities in the United Kingdom and not many decades ago it was one of the most important cities of the Industrial Revolution , although today only remnants of that past remain. Join us on this journey through the history of its streets and its people, its buildings and architecture, its stories and anecdotes , but, above all, join us to enjoy this adventure with the best guides in Glasgow .
Glasgow was a city of inventions and inventors, so we will talk about the most important, those who brought with them that Scottish Enlightenment from the 18th century. We will take a tour of that Industrial Revolution that took this metropolis to the top of the world , until the most stately years of the Victorian era, where we will talk about one of its great architects: Charles Rennie Mackintosh.
We will walk along the banks of the River Clyde , the reason for being of this city, and where we will discover hidden secrets , to go to the old Tollbooth.
We will go up to Glasgow Cathedral, the oldest cathedral in Scotland , where we will tell the story of Saint Mungo , patron of the city, and his miracles, to finish at the top of its necropolis, with one of the best views of Glasgow.
