Day 1 - Arrival in Glasgow
Welcome to Glasgow, Scotland’s largest and most vibrant city. After making yourself at home in your city centre hotel, it is time to hit the streets for some exploration. Glasgow is a former European City of Culture, and you will find lots of evidence for this accolade. Look out for the art-nouveau architecture of Charles Rennie Mackintosh or the grand Victorian buildings of red and blonde sandstone complete with intricate carvings. For something, a bit different why not join the City Centre Mural Trail, a colourful collection of 24 pieces of public art that can be seen throughout the city centre.
