Escape Glasgow

Escape is a fun, challenging game in Glasgow City Centre. Designed for groups of 2 - 5 or 6. With 4 rooms in operation we can accommodate teams of up to 22. We lock you up in a mysterious room, and give you exactly 60 minutes to get out. In order to escape you and your team must identify clues, solve logic puzzles and break codes. Do you have what it takes to Escape?

We went with another family and did the Wizard challenge where you make up two teams, go in identical rooms and see who can get out first. Staff welcoming and attentive, escape room was fun, with just the right amount of help when needed. Great experience.

St. Vincent Street Free Church

Reviewed By Margo7850p

St Vincent Street Church is located west of the city center . It was opened in February 1859. The building was designed by one of Glasgow's most famous architects, Alexander Greek Thomson. The constituent parts of the building display different styles, with a typical Thomson Greek temple placed alongside an exotic clock tower which shows more oriental influences. Beautiful building.

Finnieston Crane

Reviewed By alexhyphen - Bath, United Kingdom

A short hop out from the city centre, near the SSE arena is one of Glasgow’s iconic landmarks, well worth a walk. That whole area is near the science centre, Radisson Red hotel roof bar, definitely a great place to take in the great view. The walk along the Clyde back into town is great, as well as the walk further along to the transport museum.

Clyde Arc Bridge

Reviewed By Margo7850p

The Clyde Arc , known also as the Squinty Bridge, is a road bridge spanning the River Clyde in Glasgow, connecting Finnieston near the Clyde Auditorium and SEC with Pacific Quay and Glasgow Science Centre in Govan. Fantastic location, really photogenic place in Glasgow. One of the best views in Glasgow. Great place for lovey riverside walk or just chill for a while. It looks as much good in day as night. A must must must go place if come to Glasgow.
