Osh was a terrific guide..he provided a memorable experience! He not only educated us on the history and notable events of/in Glasgow, but also gave us a great overview of Scottish history. His strong and varied educational background was an added bonus as we were able to discuss a variety of topics with him.

We highly recommend Osh as a superlative guide.

We arrived and it was raining-- but Molly was all in to support us! She did a fantastic job and provided a wonderful overview of the city. She followed up afterwards with an email providing recommendations for restaurants and links to the venues we wanted to see the next day. She was great!

We had a great driving tour around Glasgow. Our guide, Zhanna, accomplished her objective brilliantly: to show us the most beautiful historical places in Glasgow, together with clear and entertaining explanations about the main historical periods of Glasgow. She was professional and really nice. We couldn’t have had a better guide! We will absolutely recommend this experience to our friends.

Excellent experience with Osh. My husband and I booked a private tour and were so fortunate to have such a first rate tour guide. Osh is amazingly smart and has impressive knowledge of the city and its history. He will explain in as much detail as you desire. We walked the city center and customized based on our time and interests. We requested stopping for a bite and enjoyed a quick stop for fish and chips at his favorite local spot. The cathedral was open and so impressive and was a highlight for sure. Osh gave us a real feel for Glasgow in the limited time we had on our cruise stop. Osh is wicked smart and a pleasure to hang out with. His love for Glasgow is evident and endearing.
