One of our favorite guides! David had a great sense of humor, was patient and was knowledgeable about Scotland and soccer (I mean football). He recommended local cuisine and gave us a great Scottish experience!

Hi my name is Dave and like yourself I have a passion for travel. I love to explore and discover the hidden gems that you can find anywhere in the world but sometimes it can take time to find them. That is where a private tour with a knowledgeable local guide stands out. Come with me and I will take you on a voyage of adventure and discovery as we explore the hidden secrets of my beautiful country and its remarkable history. My adventures are suitable for all and can be modified to meet the needs of any group from high activity thrill seekers to the more sedate scenic explorers. Don't worry, even our low activity tours will allow you to explore and discover some hidden gems. As an avid traveller I have experienced many tours and adventures and as such I have a good understanding of what makes a tour stand out. I have used this knowledge and experience in the design all of my tours to provide a fantastic experience for my guests. It is true that adventure and discovery can still be carried out in luxury and comfort and that is my main focus. I look forward to meeting you and your group as we embark on another adventure which has been modified to provide the unique experience you are looking for during your short visit to my incredible country. Now it is time to see Scotland your way. Dave C I am not a licensed guide and will not be able to guide you inside the historic monuments, I will however accompany you and give you my insights where applicable.

Full Day Glasgow City Highlight Tour with a Mix of Driving and Walking
Overview of your Glasgow tour
Glasgow has a wealth of museums and monuments, gardens and terraces as well as a vibrant city life. On this tour I will provide a taste of some of the highlights of this fantastic city! Our walking tour will take in the heart of the city including Glasgow Cathedral, the Royal Concert Hall and George Square which has been used as a filming location for World War Z with Brad Pitt and the smash hit TV series "Outlander". We will spend the second half of the day around the outskirts of the city viewing the museum's and concert halls before returning to your starting location. I have a love for travel and learning. I guess that's the reason many travellers have described me as engaging, well informed, and enthusiastic. It is your time to see Scotland!

David was the most amazing and accommodating guide. He took us on a scenic tour of the countryside with breathtaking views at Argyll Forest Park, then a walk through Inverary with its charming shops and stunning castle before going to a local eatery, and finally a tour of Glasgow!! We could not have asked for a better day and highly recommend touring with David if you are visiting from a cruise ship or land tour.
Sandy S.Canada
David Cornwalis was a 15/10 as a guide; one of the best of Tours by Locals & we have used them worldwide for over 15 years; knowledgeable; super personable; accommodating; great-safe driver; could tell he loved his role; couldn't do enough for our group of 6 Canadians; prompt pick up & drop off at the port; extra treats along the way including " secret sites"; don't book any other guide in Scotland; we look forward to another day with David in Edinburgh!

Glasgow was a wonderful city and David was a great guide throughout. I would definitely recommend him.
Your Glasgow tour itinerary
- From your pick up point we will head right into the heart of the city to start a walking tour taking in some fantastic buildings and locations including Glasgow Cathedral, George Square, Buchanan Galleries, The Royal Concert Hall, Sauchiehall Street and finally a bird's eye view of the city from one of the highest viewing points in the city. - We will then head back to our vehicle to go on a tour of the museum's, galleries and entertainment venues around the outskirts of the city. Many of these buildings could keep you busy for an entire day but you will get a taste of what Glasgow offers. If you want to spend longer in any specific location just let me know and we will alter timings to suit. We will be taking a lot in, in a single day.
