This hop on hop off bus tour in Glasgow worked very well. The buses arrived regularly at the stops about every 15 minutes in our experience. The staff were very friendly and if you are lucky enough to have live commentary rather than the headphone variety, then that is very entertaining too.

Tour was good however experience was marred by microphone continually cutting out so there were parts where bud passed by and information regarding surroundings were missed. Staff were lovely and apologised continually however I felt that I would have to return and do tour again to completely get experience and knowledge

Nice little tour, guide was full of info and fun stories. Bus departed from a different location due to filming but that information was provided and we found the new stop with no hitches. Carry a sweater/jumper and a hat because it got quite windy v suddenly.

The route taken is very interesting. The live guide and the recorded guide are both very good. With the 2 day ticket only being a £1 more than a 1 day you can't go wrong for value for money. Buses are plentiful and punctual with the stops we used showing timetables. Stops at all the major tourist attractions. A very enjoyable couple of days.
