Overview

This isn’t your average history tour. It’s a rich, immersive journey through the heart of one of Scotland’s most storied towns — led by locals who live and breathe Paisley’s past.

You’ll hear the echoes of monks in medieval cloisters, walk in the footsteps of radical weavers and poets, and uncover the stories behind some of the town’s most iconic and overlooked landmarks. Using personal audio headsets, you won’t miss a word as your guide brings Paisley’s layered history to life with warmth, insight, and a few surprises.

A commitment to authenticity, this tour offers a deeply human connection to the people and events that shaped Paisley — from its proud industrial roots to its cultural revival.

You’ll have fun, too — as one recent guest said:

“We had a blast! The guides were so knowledgeable and humorous — a fantastic way to experience the city. Highly recommended!”
