Fun! - Vincent was funny, knowledgeable and entertaining. You can tell that he really loves this city and what he does. Will be using some of his recommendations for spots to visit and eat while we’re here

So much fun, fabulous tour! - Moved to Glasgow a couple of months ago and had been wanting to book this for months, but there's usually a big queue for his tours - and rightfully so. Absolutely would recommend! Very funny, great for fans of horror and true crime, but not overly macabre, sprinkled with historical anecdotes of Glasgow and its people. The tour is very well paced and feels like exploring the city with a couple of friends. Vincent was incredibly attentive, manoeuvring us through Glasgow's Saturday night traffic with ease and handling the odd heckler like a communication pro. Meeting spot is easy to find, finishing spot is close to a subway. Will definitely come back with friends visiting, can see myself enjoying this more than once.

Everyone visiting Glasgow should do this! - Anyone visiting Glasgow should definitely do the Gothic Glasgow Walking Tour with Vincent. He is very informative about not just gory and spooky tales, but also Glasgows rich history. He included everyone on the tour and even checked afterwards that we knew our bearings of how to get back to public transport/hotels. Thanks Vincent!

No better way to learn more about Gothic Glasgow. - Vincent was knowledgeable, friendly and his unique take on Glasgow and it's dark history made the 2 hours fly by. Our group of 7 were interested, entertained and curious. Even the sceptics amongst us enjoyed the tour. Take the tour - it's fun, educational and thought provoking, plus it's a fantastic conversation opener.

Interesting and funny - Nice 2 hours walk in central glasgow. Interesting to hear some background of the old buildings and murders that happened in the past. Vincent was very funny and friendly and you could have a good chat with him. 5/5

A must for anyone that likes dark and interesting history - Vincent was absolutely brilliant! He was very personable and made a point of greeting everyone and having a little chat, and throughout the night while walking he made sure everyone felt included. He had a perfect balance of humour and fact to keep it interesting but not boring. Unfortunately we had to cut the walk short as we were just too tired, had had a long day. But 100% will do it fully next time we're in Glasgow. If you love some dark and interesting history, definitely go on this walk!!! Thanks again Vincent and sorry for bailing halfway through :) ps. didn't find nessie :(
