The Glasgow Food and Drink Tour

This tour should be mandatory to discover the city of Glasgow! We had the best time with Gillian, and discovered the greatest restaurants and local shops.
The explanations and context she brings to the table are key to understand the city and she answered absolutely all our questions.
Thank you so much, Gillian, it was our first food tour but definitely one of the best experience 😍

I went on the West End food tour last year with 3 friends. We had a fantastic afternoon. Gillian was very informative and took us to some tasty locations. When I was looking for something special to do for our daughters birthday this year, I booked the tour again and my husband and daughter also loved it. I would thoroughly recommend it for locals and visitors alike. You'll get to sample some tasty food, enjoy a few drinks and find out some interesting facts about Glasgow. A great way to spend an afternoon. Thank you Gillian.

This is actually the second time I've done Gillian's tour and it was amazing. Initially did evening tour with my Dad a few years ago which was fab and took my Aussie Husband on day tour today. Both were totally different and had fantastic spots. Great way to introduce my Husband to Scottish food and local tour! Gillian was super informative and even though I'm a local, I have learnt something new every time. Thanks for an awesome, memorable day Gillian! ❤️

Had a really enjoyable evening with Gillian.
The itinerary was well-planned, visiting some great spots in the west end. Gillian is a terrific source of local knowledge and, to top it off, the food and drink was delicious!

Personality
the founder is absolutely amazing, funny and entertaining. I really liked her bubbly stories.

SightSeeingPoint
they were nice spots and I can only trust her, that she showed me the important stuff. (I didn't check)

Restaurants
they were nice and it appeared good quality. But as the culture in Glasgow is so diverse, do not only expect Scottish dishes to be served. A criteria, which for me was a -1 point in this experience. Also I feel like the price was a little to high for what I've got.

Story-Telling
The reasons I visit a tour is to learn more about the nations history. Also the way the tour guid perceives his life within this country. Although she did tell some information about the sightseeing points we checked out, I would have loved to hear more about
- her life in Scotland/Glasgow (what is the teaching style in schools, is sunday also a family day, what age do girls usually marry -> just general life topics)
- Scottish History (just the basics)

This food tour set a new standard for me. The food, walking tour, history provided, communications before and after the tour were all exceptional. The food and drink, both in quality and quantity, was more than I expected. We got to try all of the Scottish specialties with excellent chef’s versions. I would recommend and return to all of the stops we visited.

Gillian had carefully set up the tour to not only provide the best food and drink, it was a great walking tour that showcased the beautiful west end of Glasgow. Gillian provided history and current trends and answered any question. She was extremely thoughtful throughout the tour to ensure that everyone was enjoying the tour. Her local knowledge and love of what she was doing made the experience so enjoyable.

I only had time for one tour in Glasgow and am so glad I chose this one!

It was a pleasure to do this tour with Gillian. It was a perfectly organized mixture of delicious local food and drinks including siteseeing and some hidden places. The food was authentic and best quality. Gillian is the super sympathic and lovely guide. We highly recommend this tour!! Andrea, Thomas & Maria
