 The red tour buses by Rojo72
The tours start from George Sq, but as I said you can hop on pretty much anywhere in the city. Leave a Comment Theme: Bus

 Do buses in Alicante say, go
to Glasgow? by IanMacPhail
For trains it will work out much cheaper to get a return ticket and on the buses ask for "an all day ticket", that could save a lot. Buses may also have return tickets.
If using First Bus you will need to put the exact fare in the box when you enter the bus but drivers give change on some buses such as Arriva which goes to Paisley and Glasgow Airport.
Don`t be in too much a hurry that you miss out on this!
Also, there are special price excursion to places like New Lanark and Rothesay. These tickets can be bought at the main rail stations of Queen Street and Central. Leave a Comment Theme: Bus

Hop-on, hop-off open top bus tours.
Take a tour bus around the city, you will listen to the history of Glasgow whilst interesting places and buildings are pointed out en-route.
The cost for one adult is £9 and this gives you a two day pass, enabling you to jump on and off the bus at leisure. There are 21 stops and the tour lasts for approximately an hour. Leave a Comment Theme: BusPhone: 0141 204 0444

If you are not sure what you want to see in Glasgow, or if you want to make sure you see everything, I suggest you take yourself on an open-top bus tour of the city. There are at least two operators doing them and they leave from George square every hour (maybe ever more at certain times). That way you will get to an idea of what is on offer and where it is and will learn lots of intersting stuff while you are at it! Leave a Comment Theme: Bus

Standing at a bus stop is not enough, if you want the bus to stop you need to stick out/up your arm to show that you want to come along. It seems to be the same practice throughout the whole of UK.
The bus drivers are also v-e-r-y flexible with the definition of "bus stop". You may be dropped off in between if you ask for it and he may stop 50 metres from the bus stop if there's a queue. Leave a Comment Theme: Bus

The buses in Glasgow and plentiful, regular and mostly pretty clean. At night it is best to sit on the bottom deck nearish to the driver as there are often a few 'neds' up the back on teh top deck and they can get pretty lairy. If you are going out and about then get a day ticket. You can also get a transport card for bus and underground. The tourist buses (sightseeing) are pretty expensive but are a good way to see the city in a short time. If you have a bit longer then you can do most of it using the public buses. You can get a bus map from the bus station at Buchanan St. Number 44 is goes past the university and crosses Byres Rd. Leave a Comment Theme: Bus

The main bus company in Glasgow is First Glasgow how do a travel ticket with a map of areas it covers and places to go. But if your wanting to find out about the city yourself why not try out the "All Day" ticket at £2.10 that will give you unlmited travel in Glasgow for a day. You can just but it on the bus.
