    Went on the tour, absolutely brilliant, couldn’t recommend highly enough. Other tours I’ve been have been self guided, and having Paul as the tour guide adds a new dimension to tours. Could genuinely sense his joy of showing other football fans around his beloved Celtic Park. His humour was spot on and knowledge was first class, but what was particularly impressive was there was an array of fans from different countries who supported different teams, and he was so ready to chat with everyone and find links to the other teams. You could tell as well as loving Celtic, he also loved football. Would happily do it again, also good value for money.

    Over the years we’ve been to several tours but this was by far the best one myself and my family experienced. Very professionally done. Manus was first class. He absolutely made the experience for us. A fantastic story teller and the knowledge and love for the club was infectious. I truly believe he should be in the middle of that pitch pre match and tell the fans some history… what a way to ignite passion in 60,000 fans! From walking in the door, each person was welcoming and excited for our upcoming tour. Thank you. 💚

    Excellent day. We had a tour with Phil then a meal at the number 7 restaurant. Very good 3 hours spent. Phil was extremely knowledgeable and took his time to be informative and a wee laugh thrown in too.
