A city well-known for its turbulent past, Glasgow has a lot of secrets. Built by industry, shaped by its working class, and run by gangs operating out of ice-cream vans. This 1.5 hour tour with a local guide will take you on a walk in the darker side of Glasgow’s history.
Some centuries ago, some decades, and some still happening in the city today. From unsolved murders to tales of notorious inmates and Glasgow’s foundations as a city built on the back of slavery, this tour will bring our dark past into light as you discover a different side to this iconic city. We recommend taking this tour in the evening darkness for full effect! It’s not always possible in the summer (10pm sunsets!) but that won’t dampen your experience.
The cost of the tour is £65 for a group of up to 6 then only £10pp. The duration of the trip will be from 1.5-2 hours. You can choose your start time in the booking form. We can start the tour at the central location of outside Glasgow Cathedral, or we can meet at your hotel (email us to change start location).
