About Glasgow
Glasgow is Scotland’s largest city, followed by Edinburgh and Aberdeen. If you’re walking around the port city, make a stop at the Riverside Museum to discover centuries of Glasgow’s extensive shipbuilding history. The River Clyde — Scotland’s second-longest river — separates the fierce football rivalry of Scotland’s two biggest football teams: Rangers and Celtic. Choose a side and stick with them for life!
As Scotland’s largest city, Glasgow is also home to lots of Scottish cultural institutions. With the Scottish Opera, Scottish Ballet and the Scottish National Theatre short bus rides away from each other, it’s no wonder that Glasgow is known for its cultural impact worldwide. Filled with museums, galleries, shops, restaurants and nightlife, Glasgow makes for a great UK city break where the fun never ends.
Want to escape the hustle and bustle of Glasgow? Drive 50 minutes north to Loch Lomond where walking trails, pony treks, and watersports await.

Aberdeen
A city where history dates back almost 8000 years, Aberdeen is known as the ‘Granite City’ due to its locally quarried grey granite which sparkles in the sunshine. You can find plenty of shops, bars, local restaurants and quirky cafes. Over a quarter of Aberdeen is open space, including parks and gardens making it a pleasant city to wander around, plus a short was from the city you can find the coastline with spectacular sandy beaches.
