ABOUT US
Walking Tours in the UK is a small, unique walking tour company built by locals. Liv and Jenny founded this company after seeing that Glasgow didn't have a walking tour in early 2017. In 2019, they decided to expand the tours to across the UK so they could show off even more of our beautiful country. In each city, all of our guides are guides because they are passionate about the city and they want to share it's beauty with you! We hope to see you on one of our tours soon.
