review info from Brett on the Glasgow city & clyde bridges bike tour

A+ tour, highly recommend.

Kieth, our guide was fantastic. It was a very small group of just four of us plus Keith. Did a great loop, very similar to the layout of the subway system. Very little uphill riding so it’s good for any level bike rider. A+ tour, highly recommend.

Keith was a fantastic guide

Keith was a fantastic guide – 3 hours of sights we would not have seen on any other tour. Well paced, informative and a fantastic pedal on mainly bike paths. Highly recommended.

Highly recommend Glasgow bike tours

We had a fantastic time with Ali! He gave us an awesome tour and shared a great deal of interesting facts and stories about Glasgow, both its past and present. We really enjoyed the large loop around Glasgow we biked as it gave us a deeper appreciation for the entire city and its inhabitants. Ali was a fabulous guide in every regard of the word – friendly, very knowledgeable, accommodating and witty! We loved our super cool repurposed postal bicycles as well. We also thoroughly enjoyed the beer tasting at Drygate – Ricky shared an incredible amount of info about the beers we sampled as well as the brewing process, history of Drygate and the general beer industry. He spent a great deal of time with us, and we loved his friendly way and impressive knowledge! Overall we were super happy with the afternoon we spent and would highly recommend Glasgow bike tours!

Thanks for a great tour Keith! 🙂

Keith took us on a lovely cycle which passed through some really interesting parts of this amazing city and I certainly wouldn’t have found these on my own in the time I had. One of the highlights for me was on a narrow track alongside a river which passed by some lovely interesting parts and also when we cycled along the canal with views of the city which were fantastic! Exploring on a bike is a really great way to see as much of a city as possible in the shortest amount of time!

Alasdair was great fun

Great 10 mile loop around the sights of Glasgow! Our guide, Alasdair was great fun and full of really great info about the city. Having the beer tasting at the end to look forward to was great fun!

Great way to see the city!

Great way to see the city! The tour group was small and moved at a good place for everyone to keep up. Definitely recommend to get the lay of the land.

Friendly and knowledgeable guide

We had the most wonderful bike tour with Marco today. Such a genuine, friendly and extremely knowledgeable guide. He took his time and answered every question we had. You could tell he actually enjoys his job. I am not a biker and the bikes, while they looked heavy, handled very smoothly so I was able to get up every hill without getting off. He was very good about keeping us together and keeping us safe. Most of the trail was on bike paths along the river or pedestrian paths. Would highly recommend!

A tour of Glasgow for everyone!

The perfect day out in Glasgow for anyone… not just die-hard cyclists

Glasgow Bike Tours has put a lot of work into creating a tour that works for locals and visitors alike – and one that certainly isn’t only geared towards incredibly fit cycling aficionados. We avoid hills and our tours are designed to be great days out, as entertaining and enriching as any walking tour or bus tour.

A fantastic alternative to bus and walking tours of Glasgow

Our tours are geared towards relaxed cycling, tourism, history, and culture; they are a fun way for visitors and locals to explore more of Glasgow in 3 hours than could be possible on a walking tour, and for guests to get closer and touch many of Glasgow’s tourist attractions in a way that bus tours simply cannot offer. Explore Glasgow Cathedral, the Necropolis, the People’s Palace, Glasgow University, and so much more. We think cycling is the best way to explore Glasgow as a tourist (or a local keen to learn about the city) and our overwhelmingly positive TripAdvisor reviews speak for themselves. If you’d like to learn a little more about us, you may like to read our story.

Your safety is our priority

At Glasgow Bike Tours, we know not everyone feels as safe and comfortable on the roads as we do, so we’ve created a wonderfully easy route which follows cycle pathways, river pathways, parks, and exclusive bike lanes as much as possible. Cycling in Glasgow is perfectly safe when you’re with professionals.

Introducing the Pashley Pronto Mailstar

The ex-postie bike de-luxe version.

Now known as the Elephant Bike, after an incident with several african elephants, these are your luxurious chariots for the bike tour.

The bikes were lovingly restored by the Elephant Bike charity, after the Post Office decided to send 5000 of the bikes to landfill.

For every refurbished bike sold here in the UK, the Charity has sent one to Malawi (for free) to help local people.

Pure comfort and cycling ease, rolled into one beautiful British made bicycle.

Hop on and enjoy!

A wee note about Glasgow’s weather

Glasgow is lovely in any weather, whether it’s gloriously sunny or ingloriously dreich (a Scottish word for drizzly, cold, and cloudy). We’re not made of sugar, although we are sweet and our guides are happy to go out in all weathers, so don’t panic or assume the tour is off if it rains. Just remember to bring a waterproof!
