Riverside Museum

Riverside Museum is Glasgow's transport-and-travel museum, where vehicles and everyday movement help tell the city's story. The riverside setting and dramatic building make it an engaging outing even for people who would not normally seek out a transport collection.

Allow two to three hours for the museum galleries, choosing a route from the current floor plan that suits your interests and walking pace. Treat any nearby ship visit as a separately checked experience rather than assuming it is included or open on exactly the same terms.

General museum entry is free. Check the live opening calendar, access arrangements and family programme before travelling to the waterfront. Leave journey time around another reservation, and use the museum's own visitor information for the correct entrance rather than relying on the outline of the building on a map.
