We take you exploring off the beaten track

Walking Heads make audio tours with a difference.

We take you off the beaten track to explore overlooked or undiscovered places. We seek out hidden stories and bring them to life.

Walking Heads are a collaborative bunch – we are writers, musicians, producers and digital wizards of different kinds – all of us slightly nuts about exploring, researching, creating and producing the sort of walking tours we like to take ourselves (looking for the true character of the place). We make and deliver our adventures as mobile applications that you can download at the touch of a button, so our audio tours are available across a range of devices including smart phones and MP3 players.

Come with us. We look forward to hearing what you think and adding what you know to our experience.

Description

Meet us on the corner.

Join us as we walk with Glasgow-based architect Niall Murphy and friends exploring the hidden twists and turns of Glasgow's most captivating corners. Brought to you by Scottish Opera and produced by Walking Heads, this tour celebrates the arrival of a spectacular new corner, welcoming the public into the grand old Theatre Royal in the heart of Glasgow.

And what better way to celebrate than to follow a trail of 'corner conversations'. In the company of other architects and historians, Niall leads us to distinctly different buildings which have one thing in common: a theatrical sense of the Glasgow style. From Theatre Royal to Mackintosh's Lighthouse we discover how Glasgow makes turning a corner into an adventure of fine architecture.

So meet us on the corner. Which one? As you can see, the map suggests a route of numbered stops but where you start and stop is entirely up to you. One thing is certain, once you've started, you will want to come back for more.
