When packing for a trip to Glasgow, don't forget the essentials like your visa, passport, chargers, camera, some GBP and the correct power adaptor. Clothing wise, check out the seasonality guides and pack to suit the conditions - aka plenty of  layers for winter and lighter options for summer. Other necessities include a raincoat, walking shoes, hat, sunglasses, wellies and a kilt*.

Glasgow is an incredibly walkable city, so you shouldn’t have any issues navigating all the sites. With this in mind, travellers generally opt to stay in Central Glasgow and West End.

While Glasgow isn’t winning any prizes for year-round sunshine, it does give travellers the chance to experience all four seasons. Summer offers the hottest temps and long, sunny days between June and August, while winter will bring the cold, fog and snow between December and February. If you’re not a fan of the cold and are keen to make the most of your days in Scotland, we recommend visiting between March and August.

Beyond sampling haggis and shopping for your next kilt, Glasgow packs a mighty punch when it comes to vacation activities. Take your pick from days spent strolling through rolling hills, catching a gig at any of the bustling music venues, seeing a football game at Celtic park, exploring the Victorian-era Glasgow Necropolis and meeting some locals at the pub.
