Mystery, Lore and History all in one - Anytime you have someone passionate about their local history and storytelling, it's worth it. Vincent's knowledge of lore, mystery and history takes you all over the city. You don't miss the little places people may miss walking by. He's funny and engaging which brought the audience from Victorian Glasgow to modern day events.

Great tour - I booked the tour as something a little different to kick off my friend's hen weekend, as soon as we met Vincent I knew I'd made the right choice! Great time had by all, perfect mix of factual, spooky and funny which is right up our bride's street. Thanks so much Vincent!

Awesome tour! - My sister and I had such a great time on this tour—so glad we decided to go! We learned so much, and it was such a treat to hear the city’s history from a local. Vincent was incredibly knowledgeable, easy to talk to, and clearly passionate about what he does. He really followed the vibe of the group, which made the whole experience feel natural and fun. You can tell he loves a good conversation, and that made it all the more enjoyable. We were only in Glasgow for the day, and this was the perfect way to get a quick and meaningful look at the city. It’s so important to support local businesses, and we’re so happy we had the chance to meet Vincent!

Go along for the stories and props! - Brilliant night out in Glasgow for locals and visitors alike. Vincent is so knowledgeable about Glasgow's past and shares the stories in a fun way, the added props need to be seen to be believed! Never knew Glasgow had so many ghosts.

Funny and Fierce - Guide kept it funny and explained all the gruesome details. He used pictures as props to help explain and the make sure we understood, and he used a speaker to project his voice so we could all hear him. He was easygoing and interesting. He made an effort to know everyone’s names and remember bits about them.

Spooky Good - Vincent was a great tour guide. He was very knowledgeable about the area despite only having lived there for 5 years. He clearly had done extensive research to make sure he had his ghost facts right. He was fun, friendly, and overall great!
