About this activity

This is the bike/e-bike tour which turns a few corners into possibly the best 3 hours of your holiday!

This is the best way to see Glasgow. A complete tour of Glasgow's highlights on a refurbished vintage postie bike. Relaxed pace & easy route in a small group with a fun local guide. Highly recommended!

Get ready to explore Glasgow's culture, see its grand landmarks & uncover some of its hidden gems, cool spots & local hangouts in a stress-free and cycle friendly way. And all in just 3 hours, which is not remotely possible on a walking tour or bus.

This tour is for everybody–not just fit cyclists! And trust us: you see a city differently on two wheels, rolling along its quiet rivers, park walkways & cycle lanes, listening to a local tour guide.

E-bikes are available on request too!

And it's green!
