Glasgow’s sights are scattered, so a hop-on hop-off bus or a guided walk is a sensible start. Beyond that, the city’s specialities are whisky (the Clydeside Distillery sits on the river where the whisky ships once loaded), beer (Tennent’s has been brewed at Wellpark for centuries) and football: both Celtic Park and Ibrox run stadium tours.
Because Glasgow is closer to the west Highlands than Edinburgh is, day tours from here spend less time on the motorway. Oban, Glencoe and Loch Lomond are all comfortable day trips; see also the tours for Loch Lomond, Glencoe and Glenfinnan and Skye.
