About this Event

When booking, choose Donations for pay what you can tickets or Tickets if you are redeeming a voucher.

This is the story of a city, told through the lives of those who were not born, but became, Glaswegians. From its mythical founding by its twin patron saints St Thenew and her son St Mungo, the life of Glasgow has been created by migrants. This tour introduces you to a few of them.

Time and distance: This tour will last approximately two hours and will cover 1.5 miles, finishing at Mitchell Lane off Buchanan Street.

Accessibility: This route is mainly on city pavements. There are no opportunities for seated stops along the majority of this route; some stops on the Broomielaw will have bench seating subject to availability, this is two stops out of twelve and both are located towards the middle of the tour.

If you would like to see a detailed map of the route, or if there is any further information that would be helpful for access please email us: radicalglasgowtours at gmail.com.

Pricing: our public tours are always pay what you can. Suggested donations are £5/£7/£15(solidarity rate). If the cost is in any way a barrier to you taking part, please just drop us a line and we will sort you out with free tickets!

Multiple tickets: Eventbrite won't accept orders for multiple tickets under the pay what you can option. If you want more than one, you can either choose Tickets (they will be £7) or if you want to pay a lower (or higher!) amount then anoyingly you'll need to order each ticket separately. Sorry for the hassle!

Dogs: apart from guide dogs, we ask that people please not bring dogs on the tours.
