Black History Month Walking Tour Glasgow

Various Dates October, 2025

Check Availability

David Livingstone Memorial Statue, Castle Street Glasgow G4 0UZ

The walks take participants on a historical journey through Glasgow’s mercantile past and examine the city’s connections with tobacco, slavery and the abolition movement. Tours will be led by Amy Rich and Lucien Staddon Foster.

The route is mostly downhill and flat as we walk down Castle Street, past College Street and along Ingram Street. The walk is around 1.5 -2 hours long, with the longest bit of continuous walking being 5-10 minutes. The walk is step free but does involve crossing roads and walking along some cobbled paths with uneven road surface. Please email amy@crer.org.uk if you have any questions about the tour route.

Tours meet at the David Livingstone Memorial Statue, Cathedral Square.

Tours end outside GoMA, Royal Exchange Square.
