Is not this an indictment of what the reputation of this city is generally at this time? "
However, Kenny said Campbell, director Tours Bus Tours Edinburgh, the city had a lot to offer. "We want to present the opportunity to take a writer to the editor on a trip to the wonderful history and culture of the vibrant capital city of Scotland."
Glaswegians meantime was pleased by the inclusion. Morven Kerr, Pierrot et Coco runs with her husband Piero Landi, said: "We believe that it is an honor to be included This is wonderful for all the great places in Glasgow listed next to some to be one of the most prestigious in the world. . "
Scott Taylor, chief executive of Glasgow City Marketing Bureau, said: "consistently in recent years, the best publications in the world and renowned travel guide as an important objective Glasgow ranks visit, highlighting the city growing global profile as a leader in the retail trade, culture and lifestyle center.

"
While a Louis Vuitton store was discussed in Glasgow, opened on Multrees Walk Edinburgh in 2003.
Sandra White, SNP MSP for Glasgow Kelvin said the two cities have their charms. "Glasgow is a wonderful city, the creative shines.

The guides are bookshops from tomorrow in French and English on the website of Louis Vuitton and French.
