Why rent a car in Glasgow?

Glasgow is a great city to explore and having a car means you can get out to the beautiful Scottish scenery. The largest in Scotland, Glasgow is a beautifully diverse city that has everything from historical architecture and impree museums to fun, youthful neighborhoods and its own unique take on the British cuisine. The city is also wonderfully connected to other parts of the United Kingdom, whether you’d like to travel to nearby Edinburgh, go south to England, or explore the coastal areas of Scotland.

Top ways to enter Glasgow

  • Glasgow Airport. Also known as Glasgow-Paisley thanks to the nearby town in which it is located, Glasgow’s main airport is among the ten busiest in the UK as it serves around 10 million passengers every year. The airport is about 16 km (10 mi) from Glasgow’s city center.
  • Glasgow Prestwick Airport. The other, much smaller, of the two airports serving the city, Glasgow Prestwick hosts only one airline, the low-cost carrier Ryanair. Nevertheless, it connects Glasgow to many different destinations in mainland Spain, the Balearic Islands, the Canary Islands, Poland, Malta, Portugal, and Italy.
  • Edinburgh Airport. Serving nearly 15 million passengers annually, Edinburgh Airport is the largest in Scotland. It’s around an hour’s drive from central Glasgow.
  • By rail. If you’re arriving in Glasgow by train, you can conveniently pick up a rental car at Glasgow Central Railway Station or Glasgow Queen Street Railway Station.

City facts

  • Much like the rest of Britain, Glasgow has a cool oceanic climate with small temperature changes between seasons. Summer is the least humid part of the year, with an average temperature in July of 16 °C  (60 °F), although it can get significantly warmer on individual days. The average temperature in December, the coldest month, is 4°C  (39 °F). Snowfall in Glasgow is very rare and infrequent. Glasgow does, however, get a lot of rain and gets twice as much rain annually as Edinburgh.
  • The population of the Greater Glasgow Metropolitan area is around 1.7 million, meaning that nearly every third inhabitant of Scotland lives in or near the city.
  • Although the main official language is English, Scots (a Germanic language closely related to English), and Scottish Gaelic (a Celtic language), are officially recognised in Glasgow.

Top sights and activities

  • Glasgow Green. One of the most beautiful urban parks in the entire UK, Glasgow Green is a place where you can easily spend a whole day, either having a picnic, meeting locals, or by observing some of the landmarks of the park such as Nelson’s Memorial, the People’s Palace with its Winter Gardens, or the Doultain Fountain, the largest terracotta fountain in the world.
  • Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum. Located in one of the most stunning buildings of the city, Kelvingrove has artworks by world-famous artists such as Van Gogh, Monnet, and Dalí, but also truly fascinating collections of wildlife, anthropology, and natural sciences.
  • Riverside Museum. Also known as the Glasgow Museum of Transport, the Riverside Museum won the 2013 European Museum of the Year Award, and for a good reason. Famous exhibits include Tall Ship, a former cargo ship built in 1896, and a steam locomotive. The museum is located in the Glasgow Harbor area that’s been rapidly rebuilt over the last decade.
  • Glasgow Cathedral. Also known as the High Kirk of Glasgow and St. Mungo’s Cathedral, it is one of the most impressive churches of Scotland. Built in the 12th century as Catholic church, it later came under the control of the Presbyterian Church of Scotland. A fine example of Gothic architecture, it remains one of the symbols of Glasgow to this day.
  • Glasgow Chambers. Another famous building, the City Chambers house the Glasgow City Council. Built in the 19th century, the Chambers are located on George Square, which is often referred to as the center of Glasgow. After looking at the chambers from outside, consider taking a tour of the inside to also see the ornate halls and mosaics.
  • St Mungo Museum of Religious Life and Art. Often named as one of the only few museums in the world devoted to the topic of religion as a whole (as opposed to a certain historical period or a specific belief), St. Mungo’s is one of the hallmark cultural institutions of Glasgow. Named after the patron saint of the city, it houses and displays objects related to various faiths from around the world. Entry to the museum is free.
  • The Lighthouse. Although not an actual lighthouse – it is located in the premises of the former offices of the Glasgow Herald newspaper – Scotland’s Center for Design and Architecture is another interesting place to visit. Offering guided tours through its galleries and frequently hosting various cultural events, the Lighthouse is also known for its interior which includes an amazing helical staircase, as well as from the views of Glasgow that reveal themselves from its Mackintosh Tower. 

Traffic and parking

  • The United Kingdom drives on the left-hand side of the road
  • On-street parking is usually heavily restricted. Never park on a white, double yellow or double red line (stopping on motorways and  along red lines is illegal).
  • You are not allowed to use your mobile phone while driving, unless you use a hands-free system.
  • Unless specifically indicated otherwise, the speed limits are 112 km/h (70 mph) on motorways, 112 km/h (70 mph) on dual carriageways, 96 km/h (60 mph) on single carriageways and 48km/h (30 mph)or 32km/h (20 mph) in residential areas and areas with street lightning.
  • In Scotland, the legal alcohol limit is 0.05% for both experienced and novice drivers. In the rest of the UK, the legal alcohol limit is 0.08% for both experienced and novice drivers. Exceeding the limit can lead to large fines, a suspended license, or even imprisonment.
  • The insurance and documentation of the car needs to be in it whenever you’re driving.
  • The emergency number is 999.

Toll roads

Currently there is only a single toll road in the United Kingdom, the M6 toll. You also have to pay a toll for using a number of bridges and tunnels, as well as for entering the central areas of London and Durham (a city in North East England).

As an alternative to the M6 around Birmingham, the M6toll is a 43 km (27 mi) long portion of the road, also known as the Birmingham North Relief Road (BNRR), that relieves congestion on the M6 itself. There are toll gates where you can pay by either cash or credit card. As of January 2023, the price is £8.20 for using the toll road from Monday to Friday (from 5 a.m. to 11 p.m.), £8.20 for using the toll road on Saturday or Sunday (from 5 a.m. to 11 p.m.), and £7 for using the toll road at night (11 p.m. to 5 a.m.).Find out more on the M6 Toll official website.

Ideas for day trips

  • Stirling. Located roughly halfway between Glasgow and Edinburgh, the small city of Stirling is most famous for its stunning hilltop castle and the Wallace monument; a  momument to William Wallace, a Scottish national hero. Stirling lies roughly on the border between the Scottish Lowlands and the Highlands, giving you the opportunity to explore both. The distance to Glasgow is just 45 km (28 mi).

  • Isle of Arran. Often referred to as “Scotland in Miniature”, the Isle of Arran is a relaxing place just west of the Scottish mainland. It is best known for the Brodick Castle and Garden, but make sure to also see the Machrie Moor Standing Stones, drive around the little villages, or go into the mountains where you can sometimes spot golden eagles. Isle of Arran can only be reached by ferry. Some, although not all, ferry companies, carry passenger vehicles, and it is best to book a ticket in advance. Find out more about visiting Arran on the island’s official homepage.

  • Houston. A proper Scottish village, Houston is just 40 minutes drive west of Glasgow, but unless you’re traveling with a friend who can also drive, you should consider making it a two day trip. The reason? It’s one of the most famous brewing communities in Scotland, and while it is a lovely place in its own right, it would be a shame to go there and not to sample some of the fine local produce.

  • Loch Lomond and the Trossachs. Made up of thick woodlands, deep valleys or glens, and picturesque hills, the Trossachs is a beautiful nature area just a short drive north of Glasgow. The Trossachs include several protected areas like the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park and Great Trossachs Forest Reserve, and is a great place for scenic drives, hiking, or simply enjoying nature.

  • Edinburgh. Just 74 km (46 mi) east of Glasgow and quite similar in size, Scotland’s capital is nevertheless a very different place when it comes to atmosphere. Famous for its castles, museums, and many festivals, it would be a shame to miss it if you’re going to Scotland.

Most popular cars

The most popular rental car in Glasgow is the Fiat 500, although the VW Polo and the VW Golfo are also picked a lot by travelers. The most popular rental car types are mini, economy, and compact.

Further destinations

  • Cairngorms National Park. Located in the eastern part of the Highlands, Cairngorms is the largest protected nature area in Scotland and the UK’s largest national park. An austere and wild landscape, the national park is made up of snowy peaks, moors, marshes, and a portion of the ancient Caledonian Forest. The park’s walking paths take you past impressive rock formations and waterfalls; there are also opportunities for skiing, mountain biking, canoeing, and other sports. The Highland Wildlife Park is located in the Cairngorms and is home to many local species, as well as animals like Amur tigers, yaks, and red pandas. There are some villages and towns inside the park, such as Aviemore, where you can find accommodation, shops and restaurants, so it’s possible to find a place to stay.  

  • The Scottish Highlands region. When many people think of Scotland, the first thing that’s on their mind is its wild nature, and in no other place can you experience in better than in the Scottish Highlands. Not only is the region beautiful, it’s also culturally unique. Go on a three-hour drive to Glencoe or further still to Fort William and explore the beautiful scenery and rich history.

  • Newcastle. A large city in Northern England, Newcastle is a unique and lively place. It is famous for its many beautiful bridges crossing the Tyne River, the ancient Roman fort of Segedunum, and its close proximity to wildlife areas like the Northumberland National Park and the North York Moors National Park. Coming from Glasgow, it’s just a three-hour drive south.

  • Aberdeen. Sitting on the North Sea coast in eastern Scotland, Aberdeen doesn’t enjoy the same amount of popularity as Glasgow and Aberdeen. That is a shame, as the city has plenty for a traveler to enjoy, from unique granite architecture to beautiful public gardens and even the northernmost surfing opportunities in Europe. Located 240 km (150 mi) northeast of Glasgow and easily reachable in three hours, Scotland’s third city is definitely worth a shot.

Skye is one of the most beautiful places on earth. The beauty lies in the natural elements from lochs to mountains, the abundance of free roaming, mostly fenced in sheep, the more rare highland long horn cows, And most importantly, the people. We found that the further north travels in Scotland, the greater the kindness, natural good spirit of the people. The Scottish people provide a Welcoming reason to travel to Scotland and the abundance and diversity of the natural beauty are bountiful. Enjoy!

We rented a car to drive from Glasgow to the north of Scotland! Up north the roads were crazy- very narrow and many single lanes with two-way traffic and designated passing zones. Thank goodness we had a pretty small vehicle that we could maneuver these roads with. We were also originally supposed to have an electric car which would not have been ideal for this trip. Thank goodness for the reps at Arnold Clark who helped us switch the booking with no issues at all.

Thanks to having my own transportation, I was able to quickly and easily--and on my own schedule--go and see so many places that a bus wouldn't have taken me to, or at least not conveniently!

Driving through the Highlands was beautiful, and the Isle of Skye was magical. It was very helpful to have a car on Skye—it made it easy for us to explore the island and take many beautiful hikes. The roads in the Loch Lomond/Trossachs area were very narrow and a little nerve-wracking, but the adventure was worth it!

The desk rep checked the car with me and noted all dents/scratches including wheels. Upon return the same intense check over. So make sure that all dents/scratches are noted before you take your car away. All in all a very efficient and cheap car hire service. The shuttle bus arrived quickly, and took just 5mins each way. No hesitation in recommending Green Motion car hire.

City actually has very good public transport and the city centre is a 20mph zone, however if you're going anywhere outside Glasgow I would recommend it.

Our impression of Glasgow was exceeded! Lots to do, great little cafes and restaurants, a wide variety of cultural events, and the weather was refreshing

Petrol may run out in high tourist areas during peak season, so make sure if you do not get a diesel car to never let your tank fall below a sufficient level to carry you to the next major city, especially in the highlands.

Loved Glasgow and surrounding countryside. Will definitely be returning but unfortunately will not be using Green Motion
