Great guy, lots of information and curious fact. Great sense of humour. On a grey, rainy, cold day he made me enjoy Glasglow and nearly forget the weather. Highly recommended.

A great overview tour for short-stay visitors to Glasgow wanting to understand the history and culture of the city. Iain was knowledgeable, personable, and a great communicator.

The tour with Iain felt like going for a nice walk with your uncle. He had an amazing arsenal of historic facts, but knew how to keep it interesting and switched with jokes and personal stories! Would definitely recommend!

We started the tour with 2 typical local snacks that Iain provided which set us off to a great start. We then had a great stroll with Iain who told us interesting stories about the history of Glasgow accompanied with some entertaining jokes! Thanks again Iain!

Fabulous tour. Wonderful insights into the history of Glasgow. Iain was extremely knowledgeable. Loved his sense of junior. Wish we had done the walk on our first day here. Thank you

Great tour with Iain exploring Glasgow and places I wouldn’t have found on my own. Started with a Scottish treat that was lovely.

A tour to remember. The first thing Iain( although my boyfriend was left with the impression his name is Liam πŸ˜€) did was buy us traditional scottish Irn bru and caramel biscuits. The friendliest and funniest guide we’ve ever met. Not only did he have interesting stories about almost every street/place we visited or passed by, but he managed to show us the feeling and atmosphere of the place in an authentic way and make us fans of the city. Thank you! Regards, Valeriia & Kris

Response from Iain

Thanks for your company on the tour…and what a great review. It makes me feel very humble to be so much appreciated for doing a job which I absolutely love. Hope you enjoyed the rest of your visit to Glasgow. Cheers Iain (not Liam πŸ˜€πŸ˜€)

Hi Juan, Thanks so much for your review. It was great to meet you both and just a shame you had to leave tour early to return to the ship, although I understand your concerns about public transport back to Greenock. I trust the return journey was on timeπŸ˜ƒ. Thanks again. Iain

Thank you very much, Ian, we really enjoyed the city tour. We had walked many of these streets before, but with you explaining we saw so much more. I don’t think people are afraid of little history lessons and jokes, keep up the good work!

Response from Iain

Thanks so much for that great review. It really makes my day when people enjoy the tour….and the current fine weather really makes the city come alive. All the very best to you. Cheers Iain

It was a great way to discover Glasgow! Don’t miss it out!

Response from Iain

Hi Marcos, Thank you both for your company yesterday and your very kind review. I hope the experience wasn’t spoiled in any way by the rudeness of all the other guests who did not show up or even get in touch to say they would not be attending. Enjoy the rest of your Scottish stay. All the best. Cheers Iain

Ian is an excellent Guru!. Publicly we would like to thank him very much for the gift and for all the information he gave us regarding Glasgow!. A highly recommended experience with a truly native! We enjoyed every minute of Ian’s company and we would like to wish him all the very best!

Response from Iain

Hi Juan, Thanks so much for your great review and kind words. I am just happy to be doing a fun job like this and being able to work outside and meet new friends every day. As the role is 100% based on tips it is maybe not suited to people who rely on it for a living. But I now get my old age state pension so I can pay my bills and that is all that matters. Thank you anyway though, I am just happy the tour went well. Cheers Iain

Thanks so much for great review David. It really was great to meet you all and it was a good laugh too. It’s just a shame that I wasn’t seriously ill at the time as it would have been fun to find out if you are any good as doctors! πŸ˜›πŸ˜›πŸ˜› Cheers, Iain
