On Tuesday 20th October the guests had a tour with the famous Glasgow sightseeing bus and they visited the Kelvingrove museum and Riverside museum.

The multi-award winning Riverside Museum is home to over 3,000 objects that detail Glasgow’s rich past from its days as maritime powerhouse to a glimpse into daily Glasgow life in the early to mid 20th Century. Amongst the objects on display are everything from skateboards to locomotives, paintings to prams, vintage cars to a stormtrooper.

We also visited Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum which houses one of Europe's great art collections. It is amongst the top three free-to-enter visitor attractions in Scotland and one of the most visited museums in the United Kingdom outside of London
