There is yet another reason for celebration at Celtic Park as it was announced today that the Celtic Park stadium tour has been named the best family-friendly day out in the world according to travel ratings experts, Tripadvisor.

This fantastic achievement comes after the Celtic Park tour was given a gold award by Tripadvisor as one of the top attractions in the UK last year, and this latest piece of success for the Celts sees the Paradise tour named as one of the best visitor experiences in the world.

The stadium tour takes visitors behind the scenes of the biggest football stadium in Scotland, giving guests the chance to see Celtic’s massive trophy collection, the home dressing room, the players’ tunnel, the dugout area and the Directors’ Box in the main stand.

Each tour is led by an official Celtic Park tour guide, and with a large pool of guides making up the tours department, visitors to Celtic Park are guaranteed that no two tours will ever be exactly the same, with each guide bringing their own experience and knowledge to their tours.

The world-renowned stadium tour starts and ends in the Celtic Park Sports Bar, and after this morning’s tour, the Celtic View caught up with some of the visitors who had enjoyed their experience at Paradise, and the global appeal of the stadium tour was clear to see.

Sam and Max from Maine in the United States, along with Graham from Massachusetts, were only too happy to wax lyrical about their experience at Paradise.

“I’m a big soccer fan and I loved the tour, it was amazing,” said Max. “I loved the trophy room, and my favourite trophy was the European Cup.

'I would recommend it to my friends. I’ve loved being here, it was a great experience.'

Graham added: “The facilities are great and the tour guide was really funny and witty, but he was also very knowledgeable.

“You can tell how much it means to the people here.”
