Glasgow (Greenock), Scotland

Glasgow City Highlights

A Panorama of Scotland’s Largest City Discover the rich architectural heritage and history of the Scottish Lowlands port city of Glasgow. Your knowledgeable local guide will share insights as you ride by motor coach to the city. Here, you will visit the 13th-century medieval Glasgow Cathedral, the burial place of St. Kentigern (or St. Mungo, as he is more popularly known), the patron saint of Glasgow. His tomb became a place of pilgrimage, and the church around it grew and was beautified as the city’s importance grew. The crowning glory of the cathedral is the Lower Church—a splendid example of 13th-century Gothic architecture. Enjoy a drive into the city center with views of the historic Tolbooth Steeple and magnificent University of Glasgow buildings. Then, you will have the chance to visit the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum—the largest civic museum and art gallery in the UK, with collections of international importance. * Moderate - Walking portions may be long and somewhat challenging with occasional step-ups, stairs and inclines.
