My friend and I booked the bike tour to maximize our sightseeing in Glasgow for the short amount of time we were there. It did not disappoint! We saw some great sites and learned a lot as well! Staff at Gallus Pedals are very kind, professional, accommodating and knowledgeable. They have a great admiration for their city and it shows in how they give the tour! Highly recommend you check out Gallus Pedals when you next find yourself in Glasgow!

The bike trip provides you with a good overview of Glasgow and shows you other places to visit, which I did later. Martin is a great guide, and the trip was very enjoyable and informative.

Magnificent urban excursion through Glasgow, another different way to visit the city, with a magnificent guide who made the tour very enjoyable, and as good football lovers, we finished the tour at the Glasgow Celtic field

I can recommend this bike tour enough. Whether you’re a seasoned cyclist or a casual rider, it’s the perfect way to experience Glasgow from a unique and exhilarating perspective. With knowledgeable guide Martin, breathtaking scenery, and unforgettable memories waiting around every corner, this tour is truly a must-do for anyone visiting the vibrant city of Glasgow.

So, if you have never been on a bicycle tour YOU NEED TO book one NOW!! Bicycle is the BEST way to see a city. You maneuver to places that you cannot possibly see from a bus. Martin, our tour guide with Gallus Pedals was fantastic! So personable! His knowledge of the history of Glasgow was enriching and he also shared personal stories of how he has seen Glasgow change over his lifetime. My 19 year old son THOROUGHLY enjoyed the experience and cannot wait to the next bile tour. I highly recommend GALLUS PEDALS!!!

We visited hidden gems of Glasgow that I wouldn’t have discovered on my own. Our guide was very friendly and knew a lot about the city. Loved the tour and three hours just flew by!

Martin is a fantastic, knowledgeable and accommodating tour guide. His passion for the city and stories he shares help to make this a wonderful experience on bikes that are great fun! Would definitely tour with him again.

Betty_S

This bike trip is a really awesome way to see the highlights and hear the history of Glasgow’s West end! Dominique was a lovely hostess full of fun knowledge, tidbits and back story of the area. The bikes were historically unique but fun and easy to ride for anyone. You ride for a bit, then stop for a bit and hear the history. A nice mix of physical activity and culture learning. The University of Glasgow was a breathtaking highlight of this trip. Note this trip does not go through city center due to traffic, but you see a bunch of awesome sights. Highly recommend!!
