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.
