Afternoon in Glasgow - Booked this trip for my friend and I to pass some time in Glasgow. Members of staff on duty were all very welcoming , we were last to board . Bus left almost on time , safety information was given and a get to know why people were there. Afternoon tea was lovely , all the usual sandwiches, quiche, warm scone, cakes , raspberry tart and macaron. Glass of fizz but you can purchase additional drinks . The lady said the tour wasn't guided but she did manage to point out many places of interest. Stopped at the museum of transport for a comfort stop . On the way back we did have a sing a long which was very entertaining. Would highly recommend doing the tour , something different and the food was delicious

A lovely afternoon with strangers... - Had a great couple of hours on the Red Bus. Food was plentiful and delicious. The banter from staff was lively and amusing. Enjoyed the wee sing along at the end. We were lucky it was a glorious day and saw Glasgow mostly at its best. Bought another voucher to try the Edinburgh one.

Red bus high tea Glasgow - Red bus high tea. This was a first class experience. Plenty to eat, and drink, with refills on request. Comfort break at the Riverside museum and we were given the opportunity to take photos, which we did, the climb into the drivers seat was a bit of a struggle but manageable. The experience was made so much more enjoyable with Helen, Nikkie and driver Dave. The sing song on the return journey was very entertaining, we knew all the songs and enjoyed the seat disco. Highly recommend. Well done to all the staff, the enjoyment was definitely down to how you entertained us all 👏
