I'm the guy with the orange bag. My name is Douglas. In Scotland I am called Dougie but I answer to both. I have run walking tours of Glasgow for ten years now. I am very passionate about my city. Born and bred in the Cowcaddens area of Glasgow-- which is in the centre of the city. Many of my tours are based on my childhood experiences. I know my city very well and look forward to showing you around. My passion for travel has taken me around the world and I've seen so many of the planet's highlights. I have walked the Great Wall of China, backpacked across America, mixed with the locals in Moscow's famous vodka bars and taken a safari in Africa. I have learned so much about how to make the most of a destination. This is how I plan my tours. I know you love to to see the highlights but you also want to enjoy the experiences. You want to leave with great memories. That will stay with you for a very long time. Come and join me. Lets see Glasgow.
