    It depends on if you plan drinking, clubbing and eating at fancy restaurants when you visit. Glasgow is famous for it's beautiful parks - http://www.glasgow.gov.uk/en/Residents/Parks_Outdo... and museums - http://www.glasgowmuseums.com/ all of which are free. Check out this link - http://www.seeglasgow.com/

    Also look at this link for Glasgow nightlife info - http://www.nightb4.com/uk/glasgow/

    You can get an all day bus ticket for £3.20 which is great as you can jump on and off the buses all day long - http://www.firstgroup.com/

    Glasgow is fantastic for shopping. Have a look around Sauchiehall Street, Buchanan Street, Argyle Street and the famous Barras market too. I think about £250 - £300 should do you for the week. Hope you have a great time in Glasgow!

    depends where you want to go!

    The tour bus is £10 i think for 2 days- hop on hop off so thats your sightseeing.

    I'd say a 2 course meal with wine is about £25-35 for 2 people (again depending on where you go)

    Public transport is reasonably cheap.

    Bus- all day ticket £3.20

    Underground- £1.10 per journey.

    It also depends where you are staying? If its city centre you dont need to travel too much.

    I'd suggest you have about £300 if you plan on doing all this plus a bit of shopping!
