At the time of our survey, there was one stop (no. 609073, outside the Information Centre) served by regular services and three others (outside the Post Office building) served by tourist buses. As the regular stop is west of South Hannover Street for which there is no pedestrian crossing, we suggest you walk the short distance west to Queen Street and cross to the inner south pavement of George Square at this point, before turning right (east). From the tourist services, turn left (east) from the bus and cross to the south inner pavement at the junction with South Frederick Street, then turn right.
