I cannot agree more with your intro words ☺, Isle Of Skye is the most beautiful place we have seen in our life, lots of flashbacks after our trip to the Island, best part of Scotland
Absolutely! We Brits take for granted some of the stunning beauty that's on our shores. None more so than at Skye.
true @@UltimateBucketList
My family has been going to Skye every year between 2 and 6 times a year since 1971. I've been just about every year of my life as well. It's an absolutely beautiful place, but going there can be a bit sad for me as most of the people with whom my family were close friends on the island and who I met/stayed with as a young child have sadly passed. When I was young, we would always go to a specific restaurant where almost everyone in there would know my Grandad from his decades of visiting. The lady who made the food used to make mussels, which weren't on the menu, for my Grandad every time we came to visit. Now when we go in there, we're surrounded by tourists, and no different from anyone else. Everyone we used to eat and drink and laugh with has either passed away or moved elsewhere. Going to Skye is now an odd experience for me
I'm sorry to hear that. I know what it's like when a place full of memories changes ... and it doesn't feel like the same place anymore.
My advice to you is hang on to those happy memories - because nobody can take that away from you.
There is much much interest in Skye now. The place is very likely to continue changing a great deal. We all love it and prayers it will stay beautiful!!
I live in portree and i can tell you, it rains tons
I believe you!
That’s true lol
Can u pls tell me if it is real that you can see properly the milky way?
@@luigidifabio6709 hey sorry for such a late reply 😂 no, or at least i havent ever before
yup
I think you are right! Thank you! I will plan 2 days at least
Wonderful! I hope you have an amazing time and that the weather is perfect for you!
I really appreciate your videos! They are so helpful! Not just telling about the location but you also give essential information about how to get there and cost that most other videos leave off. Thanks for your work and willingness to share with us.
Thank you very much, I appreciate your kind comments!
I try my best to make life easy for fellow travellers by taking all the guesswork away from visiting a place you've never been before. My videos will tell you how much things cost, where to find them and how to get around - so that you can spend your time enjoying life rather than worrying about logistics.
I'm glad that this helps you!
I love it!
Thanks!
Scotland, a little heaven on earth!
Yes it really is.
When the weather is nice!
@@UltimateBucketList whether is always nice there for your kind information.
We were there a year before you. Best part of our two weeks in Scotland!
Yeah, it was a pretty immense place. When it's safe to do so, I'll be back in Scotland touring the islands and driving the NC500.
Amazing guide to visit Isle of Skye
Scotland is truly wonderful
Thank you very much!
I love Isle of Skye. Excellent video
Thank you very much!
Thank you so much for this fantastic video. We are venturing to Scotland in the summer 2022. This video just makes us want to go now.
Definitely worth the trip ... just bring all-weather clothing with you. One minute it's sunny, the next minute you're in a storm!
Great video, we travelled in augustus this year from The Netherlands to Scotland for two weeks of holiday. Also visited Ilse of Skye. Everything you showed we visited (and more). Such a beautiful country.
Ah excellent! I'm glad you enjoyed Skye, it's a beautiful part of the world.
I hope the weather held out for you ... most of the time it was rainy and wet for me!
Thanks for stopping by.
dit staat ook nog op mijn bucketlist. maar moet maar even 10 jaar wachten tot de kids groter zijn. Want met een kinderwagen daar rondlopen lijkt me niet ideaal. Dan kom je niet verder dan het stadje.
Omg stop bragging
Is Scotland or Switzerland better in terms of scenery ?
Thanks for that mate, brought back lots of memories! Neist Point lighthouse used to have self-catering accommodation in the keepers cottages, we stayed there for a week ages ago, memorable holiday, the windows were covered in spray when it was rough. One of the best views on Skye is the Cuillin from Elgol, with an epic drive to get there. Fortunately, most tourists don’t make it that far.
I didn't know that Neist Point has keeper cottages that you could rent out?
That would have been cool.
And yes, it's a pretty place, I'll agree!
@@UltimateBucketList I don’t think you can anymore, sorry not really sure. It was an amazing holiday, but a bit challenging getting all the stuff, including a baby and 2 toddlers, down the path from the car park in the howling gale and horizontal rain when we arrived!
Beautiful video. Definitely want to see the Isle of Skye!
Yes absolutely! It's worth visiting once in your life!
It's so beautiful there! Been wanting to get out that way for a while now I get some footage for my own channel. Really enjoyed the video thanks for sharing!
Ah cool, glad you enjoyed this video.
I'm sure if you go there, you'll get some very scenic footage like this.
It really is a pretty part of the world! :)
you prolly dont care at all but does anybody know of a way to get back into an Instagram account..?
I somehow forgot the account password. I would love any assistance you can offer me.
@Keegan Garrett instablaster ;)
That is the COOLEST name for a location I’ve ever heard!!!
It is cool.
I am gonna go to scottish highlands once the world is corona free!!
Yeah, me too! (again).
I’m going next week 😂
Same brother cause that’s where My surename is from *Mcleod*
Did you get to go yet? How was your experience?
Keep up the good work started watching looking for ideas myself. Keep up the good work
Thanks, I appreciate that.
I'll try!
Beautiful! Very well done!
Ah, thanks very much! Check out my channel for more like this :)
Don't forget - if traveling in the fall or early spring the sun comes up late and goes down early early. You will only have a narrow window to see your sites. Also, many of the roads that lead to the sightseeing sites are single lane with periodic "pass buys" and driving is taxing. The good news is people drive very very slow on Isle of Skye so be cautious and you'll be OK.
Yes, that's correct.
Brilliant video! I love it!😍
Thanks!
Beautiful!!❤
Thank you! 😊
Been to Skye last summer! Absolutely loved it!!
It really is a nice place, for sure! Thanks for stopping by.
Admittedly, this had been a great video Sir! Thanks!
Thank you very much!
Great vid mate I’m off there next week so come across your video . Prob one of the better ones on TH-cam for the info on Skye . Thanks for the vid
Thanks bro, much appreciated!
Ultimate Bucket List no prob man I really enjoyed it . So hit a few up . Lol I like your honesty as well really made me chuckle .
This was really helpfull before my visit. Thank you
Glad it was helpful! Hope you have a wonderful time!
Good video and advice, be heading there soon, thank you.
Cool, glad this helps. Have a great time up there, watch out for the weather!
I travelled to neist point 2 years ago for a fishing / camping trip . I have travelled the world and can honestly say this is in the top 3 places I have ever been .
Oh really? I must admit, it's a very picturesque spot and there was a bunch of guys camping outside and barbequing out of their mini vans. So long as the weather is nice, I'm sure it would have been amazing :)
Thank you for this video. Your drone footage is really great. We’ll be there in mid April on a tour.. I’m looking forward to visiting this beautiful region.
You're welcome, glad you like my video.
I hope you enjoy Skye and that the weather is nice for you!
Thank you, nice impressions. I´t helps to plan the next trip.
Thanks! I hope you enjoy Skye when you next get to visit!
Outstanding!
Thank you kindly!
Been there last week! Extremely beautiful!
Thanks. And it really is!
Thanks mate. Off to hear in July. Irish man driving up from London. So long drive.
Fantastic - I hope you enjoy your time up there!
I think you are the best vlogger EVER! Thank you! So clear and to the point! I do have a question that I am not sure if you respond your comments. If one rents a car, where do you recommend to stay for the night to spend 2 days around the island? You mentioned the town of poetry? Or anyone knows? Thank you!
Thanks Bianca! I appreciate your kind comments.
To answer your question: the largest and most civilised town is Portree, it's got shops, restaurants, hotels, the visitor centre etc. so this is probably the best place to stay as it's in the middle of all the things you want to see.
There are other places you can stay on the island, yes - but Portree will make your life the easiest.
Hope that helps?
Brilliant video! I visited Skye last week and it was incredible. Lot's of rain though haha, I managed to get some incredible footage though.
Excellent! Hope you had a fantastic time up there! Yes, the weather changes fast, I wasn't kidding about that.
@@UltimateBucketList similar to Iceland in a load of ways! Have you been there? You'd love it.
Fabulous drone footage.
Thank you so much!
❤ really nice, must visit
You should visit one day! :)
Ha I think you got the best of the weather. I visited in February just gone, spent a week enjoying storm dennis whilst trying to get a few decent images and video to upload to youtube. We were on the south of the Island down by Broadford, but hoping to return next year and explore the north of Skye in more detail. Cant wait. Counting down the days already!
Wow, Storm Dennis up there must have been horrible.
It was bad when I went, but the weather changes in a blink.
Be prepared the next time you go!
@@UltimateBucketList the weather was insane but ultimately offered fantastic photography conditions, which was the point of our visit. Would love to do the west coast of Ireland.
Been there and sooo loved the experience
Yes, exactly! Even with the unpredictable weather, it's a beautiful place.
You should visit Isle of Lewis/Harris. The beaches are just 😍. Best way to see the island is to get a Ferry from Ullapool to Stornoway, then tour Lewis and then head down to Harris. You can then get ferry to Isle of Skye.
I'll consider it!
My dad's parents live there so I go about once every or 3 years and I've seen Old man of Storr a bunch
Cool!
Beautiful island - but the secret is out now! Always lots of campervans on the roads in the summer. Go slightly off season - April/May or October and you'll find it a lot quieter!
I think the 'secret' has been out for a while.
But you're absolutely right, in the summer it's busy as anything.
Cheers.
It has always been like that. It's where Scottish go to destination for a short vacation.
what a great video
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks!
Great video thanks for sharing. I was just there in February and there is a sign saying no drones now. Glad you got some drone footage before they closed it off!
That's not surprising - people are unnecessarily scared of drones. I got a bit of footage, but it was terrible weather and I would have liked to go back on a nicer day to get more. Thanks for your kind comments on this video. :)
@@UltimateBucketList You bet! And yes, drones aren't that scary haha. The weather, as you say, changes rapidly. However the upside was that we saw 7 rainbows on our day tour there. Best wishes to you!
Hey thanks for sharing, I'm going next month so this was perfect :-)
Cool, thanks! Hope the weather holds out for you.
@@UltimateBucketList Yeah I've got my fingers crossed. I'm camping a few nights so hopefully it's reasonably warm too
Thnx mate for the video.... Going there in july for a week from london... Long drive... But dont care.... I have a soft spot for scotland... Drove to scotland twice in last three year & gladly... will do it this july again...
Good luck! I'm sure you'll love it up there.
Nice video... God bless always...
Thanks Loreto!
“Admittedly” a really good video 😉
Thanks.
Great video thanks
Glad you enjoyed it! Check out my channel for more like this :)
Amazing footage man
Thanks bro, much appreciated!
@@UltimateBucketList your very welcome bro. I'll be sure to share your videos.
Beautiful
Thank you!
Great video , I love Skye , can I just say though, there are no seals in the fairy pools I think you got your footage mixed up 😂
Yes, I probably did. Thanks.
@@UltimateBucketList still a crackin vid ! 👍
@@UltimateBucketList
Fairy pools in NZ have seals?
Yes, I noticed that too:-) I live on Skye and 35 years ago was nude sunbathing after swimming in one of the Fairy Pools (which are lukewarm on a Summer's day, the water gets to them over bare rock which heats up in the sun we occasionally see). Some tourists came past to my surprise and consternation! Now there are rarely less than three dozen walking past any sunbathers at any moment in Summer.
Love the place
Yes, it's beautiful!
Amazing video :)
Thanks! :)
Awesome
Thanks!
I travel far every year, but because of covid i had to stay in the UK so i went to Scotland, and now its one of my favorite countries and is amazingly stunning scenery and the Isle of Skye was the best place in Scotland imo, i am going again in Occtober for autumn to try and get more pics. Thankks for the guide, this time i am going to old man storr too !
Great! Yes, I'm the same. COVID limited my ability to travel, so going around Scotland was the next best thing.
I'm glad you enjoyed my videos, hope you have a wonderful time out there in Skye.
If you're taking a ferry to Islay to do some whisky tasting, that's pretty too!
@@UltimateBucketList Thankyou, but i cant drink whiskey as i had 4 cup fulls when i was 14 and i have never been able to een smell it after that.
4 cups is enough to knock anyone out! You're meant to sip small amounts of it!
@@UltimateBucketList haha yeah, especially a 14 yr old, that advice is sadly 28 years too late, the damage is done there is no way in hell i can ever drink whiskey again.
How long would recommend staying on the Isle of Skye for a first time visit?
Thank you...it did
Great, hope you have a wonderful time there!
This was apparently the largest mountain range on the planet during Pangea. After many eons it has eroded of course but supposedly the Highlands made the Rockies look flat, they were supposed to be monumentally massive.
I believe so, yes!
@@UltimateBucketList There are a few places on the planet that I have been to that you can still, somewhat, see the outline of what once was. Isle of Skye is one of them. For example when you are standing on the edge of the cliff and looking out over the ocean. To me that area you were standing on was once an ancient mountain peak where the waterfall flowed downward into more lower ground mountain terrain. Isle is Skye is really weird in a geological sense in that it is so close to the north pole and yet remains so green which happens, quite literally, nowhere else on that long/lat line. No idea why it happens there, it's a mystery.
@@mspionage1743 Interesting points! I never considered the geological aspects of the island. But if you haven't been there, I highly recommend that you see it for yourself ... it's beautiful!
beautiful nature s beauty
Indeed!
Beautiful - added to my bucket list...
Absolutely! Skye and Islay (the video is on my channel) are both worth doing if you're coming here to Scotland!
I was there in the 90’s for a Scottish 🥃 my husband and I love it here
Yes, it's a really nice place.
I live on the Isle of Skye am I love this video! :D one thing I do I have to say is uig I think is pronounced ooh-ig, amazing though :))
Yes, I got that wrong, and thanks!
Loving your travel videos! Planning a trip to Europe/UK and I've added this to our bucket list!
Is it possible to explore the Isle of Sky in one day ? Also, where is the best place to hire a car from around Glasgow/Edinburgh ?
Thanks, I'm glad you like my videos.
You could drive around Skye in a day, but you won't be stopping to see anything. The best thing to do is set aside two days (or possibly more) for this place, especially if the weather is good.
Plenty of car hire places from Glasgow/Edinburgh, they're all pretty much the same. If you're coming from the airport, their car hire places are just as good as any you'll find in the city.
Great video .. admittedly :)
Thanks :)
Good info. Thanks 👍🏻
Although was that not the duncansby stacks from John o groats at the end of your video?
Thanks! yeah, got some of my footage mixed up in this video ... I used a folder called 'Scotland', unaware that it has footage from my trip across the north east, the whisky trail etc.
Scottland.
New Zealands doppelganger. 💚🌏🌱
Kind of, yes!
Bucket list suggestion. Chittagong Hill Tracts Bangladesh. Very difficult place to get to, and when I did it a few years ago now I needed a mi.itary guard. Reason being the people who live there are basically Stone Age and live in very primitive conditions. However, the scenery is incredible, and the Bangladeshi Govt. are trying to promote the area as a tourist attraction. There is a pretty decent Govt run hotel up there. (Well there was) I’m sure they would be happy to hear from you.
I've never even heard of the place, but I totally would go there now that you mentioned it!
Ultimate Bucket List check out Google Earth for more details. Nearest airport Chittagong. Head for Kaptai Lakes. You will probably need permission from local authorities and even some sort of armed escort. Have fun.
Thank you Ninh. I am going there next week. This really help a lot. . Do you have any suggestions for Glencoe. .? Thanks
Glencoe is very nice - it's a beautiful spot. But if you don't plan on walking out into the wilderness to find the waterfalls or climb the Glen, admittedly there's not that much to do.
If it's a quick whistle-stop on the way to Skye, I recommend going to the visitor centre and take some of the views from there as well as get something to eat and drink. But other than that, Skye is much more interesting.
Hope that helps?
Ultimate Bucket List Thank you 🙏 very much.
Just got back. Can’t remember carrying on from uig to get to neist point and did not see the inland seals at the fairy pools :-)
Got some of my footage mixed up in this video ... I used a folder called 'Scotland', unaware that it has footage from my trip across the north east, the whisky trail etc.
Great video! Question: We want to travel to Sky in August 2024 and looking for a place to stay. any idea? Regards Nieck jan Boschman
Ideally, staying in the town of Portree will give you the most options and it's like the centrepoint for everything you want to see and do. Whilst I can't recommend any specific hotels, there are plenty of guesthouses and places to stay in the town so you won't struggle to pick something nice.
Thinking of going to Scotland this November, visit my heritage. No, Isle of Skye isn't part of it, but it's on the bucket list.
Absolutely! I think it's worth it once in your life.
Nice video! I'm going there next month and found this very useful! Do you know if the new drone laws have any affect here or if you're free to fly your drone still?
Thanks. I believe Skye is still a droneable place, but just be careful - the weather is not your friend, so if you are doing it, do it quickly and watch the winds.
The best Indian food I have ever had in my life was in Portree !
Oh really?!
Where was that? Going in May.
good vlog i liked it 👍🏼1:50 => 😂
Thanks.
I plan on going to the Isle of Sky at the end of July. I am a photographer and am looking to get it all. How long should I go for and what places do you suggest I stay
when in the Isle of Sky?
Hi! Thanks for stopping by.
- I managed to drone and photograph most of the island in about three days, but spending another couple of days there wouldn’t hurt.
- As far as location is concerned, anywhere near the town of Portree is your best bet, as you can get to anywhere on the island from there (it’s almost like a centrepoint). It’s also the most civilised, so finding supplies, groceries, fuel etc. isn’t a problem. The main attractions (such as the Old Man of Storr, Kilt Rock Falls, the Quirang etc. are literally on the one road that goes north from the town.
- But to be honest, anywhere along the main road that runs through the island (the A87) is fine.
- Be warned - the weather changes in an instant up there, even in July - so bring cold and wet weather gear, even if it’s 100 degrees outside!
Hope that helps?!
Liked this video of yours.. is there any other means of transportation on this island instead of car?. I am planning to visit here next year in March.
Thanks Micky. It's a tough one, because the roads are so narrow.
There are things like buses etc. but you'd really have to learn the transport system there to get by via public transport.
Besides, it's way more fun to hire a car and drive yourself through the mountains.
My Clan MacLeod of Harris ancestry lived in the fishing village of Geary on the north edge of Skye and came here in 1820.
Cool!
Geary's a crofting township rather than a fishing village but all crofters had small, clinker built boats and got some of their food from the sea. These boats were their equivalent of private cars, In 1820 they walked or rowed to go anywhere and the coast is so indented that rowing was often quicker.
Although I quite liked your video and commentary, there are a couple of mistakes. The Fairy Pools are a series if small waterfalls in a little river running down from the Cuillin Hills, you will not find any seals. The sea stacks at 4.50 are on the north coast of the mainland. Also, the Q in Quiraing is pronounced as a K. Thanks for the memories though.
Yes
Are you sure those are the Fairy Pools at 1:59?
...don't recall them looking like that with seals and all. haha
Got the footage mixed up. Sorry.
I currently have the opportunity to work here and I’m so indecisive about the move. I’m terrified I’ll feel secluded
There are remote parts of the island yes, but quite a lot of it is civilised with shops, restaurants, supermarkets etc.
The one big advantage of Skye is that it's permanently attached the the mainland via a bridge, so you can leave any time.
With the other Scottish islands, you need a ferry to get there ... and when the weather is bad (as it sometimes is) they sometimes stop the ferries, meaning you're stranded.
But on Skye - this is not a problem.
Been there, done that. I cruised the Scottish coast in my sailboat during a singlehanded circumnavigation. It is very beautiful.
Nice one!
Did you also drop out of Harvard perchance?
I don't know how you managed to have footage of seals labeled as The Fairy Pools. They are famously about a third of the way up a mountain.
I got my footage mixed up in a folder called 'Scotland' which contains all the footage from my trips to the NE, the Whisy Trail, Islay etc. Used the wrong footage.
Rock and roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland
Edit if you do that there's also the NFL Hall of Fame in Canton about an hour away
I'd love to do both of those! Maybe next year when I take a swing at New York and all the cool cities around there?
@@UltimateBucketList honestly all the stuff in and around New York is a trip in itself. Maybe if you do a Midwest/northern south trip, there's those two plus the bourbon trail and Churchill Downs in Kentucky, the Ohio State Reformatory where Shawshank Redemption was filmed, the Airforce museum in Dayton, Blue Ridge Parkway/Tail of the Dragon/Smoky Mountains in general and Gatlinburg in Tennessee/North Carolina, there's a lot to look at.
There sure is!
Oh......
Ninh explains
Rules of (that game you just mentioned)
Yes.
my family were the Robinsons of Skye. can you do a film our clan?
Interesting history! Admittedly, historical content isn't my forte, but I'll consider it if I get enough demand.
Thanks :)
Bummer dude, Porter was great!
May i know which month you went?
I think it was in April or something?
Hi! Did you just rent a car from Inverness then navigate your way around the isle?
You can do - that's certainly an option.
But I just used my own car.
Lovely thanks; my son was there last week but it was misty until the last day. Railroad is Railway - is this where they filmed Harry Potter? It is a Via - duct to rhyme with higher and car *park. This is where they filmed the BFG.
Thanks. Yes, that's the Glenfinnan viaduct where they filmed a scene in Harry Potter.
@@UltimateBucketList many thanks
Wow
Indeed!
Can you drive to the end with a 9 seater mpv
Yeah, I don't see why not? So long as you take your time (because some of the roads can be bumpy), you'll be fine!
Minimum how many days are reuqired to visit these attractions in October month
I'd say three days is enough to see and do all the attractions on the Isle of Skye.
The weather starts to turn bad in October, so please bring clothing for all weather conditions.
@@UltimateBucketList thanks for the reply. Would get appropriate gear
Looks amazing but your commentary seems to suggest there is not much to do there?
The scenery is nice, for sure. But in terms of actual things to do, it's a bit lacking.
You're basically hoping for good weather - because otherwise the trip is a bit of a wash.
@@UltimateBucketList agreed.
This was a beautiful video! Would you say it is worth visiting Skye if visiting the general area of Scotland for 1-2 weeks?
Thanks, I appreciate that!
It depends where else in Scotland you're visiting?
If you're around Loch Ness / Ben Nevis anyway, then yes - you could do the best bits of Skye in about a day or two. To do everything that Skye has to offer, you'll probably need 2, possibly 3 days.
It's a heck of a drive if you're not around that area, but it's still worth a look. :)
If you’re lucky with the weather then Skye and the west coast of Scotland in general are very hard to beat ...
That’s Coming from someone who’s been all over the globe .
Definitely. Loch Ness is hugely overrated, avoid it. A great 1-2 week itinerary would be Edinburgh-Glasgow-Glencoe-Skye (and Orkney if you have time)
Hey what drone are you using?
It was a DJI Mavic Pro, then switched to Mavic 2 Pro, now I'm onto an Autel Evo II.
How much does car rental cost? I've never done that, so I have no idea what it could cost.
Car rental is charged by the day, the average price of car rental in Scotland is about £60 per day.
@@UltimateBucketList thank you!
Looks like Norn Ireland
Yes, kind of.
No be a long chalk.,victor
whats the roads like for Motorbiking? Is there a chance ill die? heard you say 'treacherous'
You're better off on the NC500 for that - all the roads are smooth. They're not too bad for biking in Skye, but especially if you drive through the mountains (like the Quirang), it's pothole city up there. Be careful.
Remember to drive on the left if you're from a country that drives on the right! Two miles from where I live, a mile from Portree, some Dutch bikers where heading for the bridge to leave the island when one realised he'd forgotten something in the B&B they'd stayed the night in. He turned round to rush back, in his hurry he went round a bend on the wrong side of the road straight into a car - killed instantly.
Is it possible to do all in 1 day?
It's quite a big island, and whilst you could drive around these places in single day, you won't be able to explore anything. My advice to you is to take your time and allow 2-3 days here in Skye, especially if the weather turns bad.
