The Home of Football Bike Tour of Glasgow

Overview

With Stuart's Bicycle Tours you can explore Glasgow as the true birthplace of the beautiful game. The bike allows you to move easily between rival districts and eras, revealing how the modern game was shaped across Glasgow. At the heart of football stands Hampden Park, the home of the Scotland national team. Once the largest stadium on earth, Hampden became the stage on which Scotland defined itself against the world. We explore the wider Hampden story too, including the atmospheric remains of Cathkin Park and the site of the original Hampden ground since lost. We will be awe struck by the stadiums and birthplaces of Glasgow's giants, Celtic and Rangers, as we ride through the history of the game. The journey includes the West of Scotland Cricket Ground, site of the world’s first international football match. By riding through these places, you don’t just learn football history — you experience where the global game truly took shape before its export around the globe.
