Our few days on Uist were such a highlight of our Outer Hebrides trip, exploring places we hadn't made it to on our previous visits to the island and catching up with friends to swim, drink gin, and try out cockling for the first time! This latest film is probably our favourite in the series so far and we hope you enjoy it too : ) Kim & Del
Great video , just came across it there now , wonderful footage , spent many great holidays touring Scotland in our caravan with my late beloved husband , never , ever quite made it to The Outer Hebrides due to time constrints etc., but hoping to make it in next year , it looks absolutely glorious , watching this has made me more determinded to achieve my dream , thank you for sharing , great job 😊😊😊😊
My brother and I saw the short ear owls on South Uist in September. Amazing to see so close. We did a tour of Outer Hebrides from Barra to Stornoway in Land rover defender and two dogs. Brilliant.
They are great, aren’t they!? It’s a fantastic trip going south to north, made all the better with dogs for company and a Land rover to drive no doubt 😃
I know you’ll have heard this before, but you are magnificent filmmakers. I’ve never seen anything as impressive as this about the Hebrides online. Absolutely superb.
Like the way you went from the noise of the ferry to complete silence at 2:06. Nice editing and very effective. I would love to travel to that area and Northern Scotland in general (from Canada). Maybe 2023
Thanks Mark, always appreciate it when people notice things like that and glad you enjoyed it. It’s well worth the trip over here, just make sure that you allow as much time as you can - lots and lots to see 😃
Beautiful video, and a fun chat during the second half. My favorites were the ponies, the beaches, and the thatch roof close-up of the stone weights. Looking forward to Callanish!
Thanks Gina, very much appreciated! Glad you enjoyed the second half too 😃. Good to know your favourites - all things we loved about Uist, especially those shetland ponies!
Watching this on our new TV ... Wow it's like a test video for 4k 🤣👍🏻 amazing work guys. I'm blown away by how stunning the islands are up there and by the effort you put in to show them in all their glory.
We had an amazing holiday on Mull after seeing your film and now we're already planning a tour of the Outer Hebrides. Compliments as always on fabulous videography and the in depth trip info chat at the the end, very helpful. Looking forward to the Harris and Lewis episode. Many thanks, Simon & Alison
That’s great, glad to hear you enjoyed Mull. We’ve been talking about going back there for ages. Thanks for the appreciation, it really does mean a lot. Enjoy planning for the Outer Hebrides 🙂
As always, this was GORGEOUS and meditative and made me really WANT to spend time there. Thanks for all the work you do to inform other travelers. I hope one day to get to the Hebrides and I'll surely be rewatching your videos and using your links to get myself a headstart on how to make the most of the visit.
Thank you Mikel, that’s really great to hear. We are absolutely delighted you describe it this way. Hopefully one day you will indeed get to visit the Hebrides. Thanks again 😃
Wow - it feels like we've been transported back to this summer and Uist while watching this. So beautifully filmed and edited! And you're right - you must have been just a few days behind us, and we went to so many similar places! What a place!
The highlight of our summer, for sure! Uist really surprised us, we'd definitely love to return and explore more. It was the same when I watched your film, it took me back and it was cool seeing the same places through your lens. You guys had some great beach-side park ups there! Kim : )
Beautiful as always. It makes me want to pack my bags this second and come back to Scotland! The drone shots are absolutely mesmerising -- and it suits Uist so well, with its incredible mosaic of land and sea. I was coming to the same conclusion that the armchair was preventing Dev from playing the bagpipes... And maybe a beer in hand also helps! 😅 Looking forward to the next film!
Haha Julie, you’re right I think! I (Del) definitely felt comfortable in that chair and a beer in hand always helps 😉. Really glad you enjoyed it, and yes that combination of land, sea and little lochans is a delight from the air. Thanks again!
Great video and youtube channel, thanks for posting this informative and educational primer on a visit to the Outer Hebrides. We have a trip planned this year in June and will will review this video again and again to better prepare for our trip. And per some previous comments, the video/drone work and photography are well done.
Thanks Don, that’s very much appreciated. It was June 2022 that we visited and for the most part, it was a great time to be there. If you’re looking for more info we also have a number of guides on our website which may be of use: www.goingthewholehogg.com/destinations/europe/united-kingdom/scotland/hebrides/ Thanks again 🙂
Absolutely beautiful! Stunning shots, you deserve way more likes and views. I will be in the hebrides this winter, I know it will look different but I'm still so excited, Scotland is one of my favorite countries in the world!
Thank you so much Megan! Appreciate that a lot! Well, the hebrides are spectacular at any time of year, so no wonder you’re excited. Have a great time! 😃
Relaxing comes to mind. Nice videos. Just spent two weeks in Scotland and absolutely loved it. We do a lot of hiking and spent a bunch of time in the Highlands and Isle of Skye. Unfortunately, we just couldn't get to the Outer Hebrides due to time. Next time! Keep up the great work.
Hi Andrew, we are coming up to Harris and Lewis next month on a photo workshop, we are really looking forward to visiting the islands again. Andrew can I ask you do you regular move away from your desk when working as I have been told you must refocus your eyes regularly away from the screen. I had a window to gaze out of to help with this though it looks as though you don’t. This coukd be something else to help with migraines.
Hey, thanks very much. Yes, you do get midges there and throughout the Outer Hebrides. We were there at the start of June so they hadn’t really got going. We went up to Harris after this and had one morning when they were quite bad, but then the storm came and no more midges 😂
@@robinsavard84 nice! Well the east coast definitely has some amazing spots, generally speaking not quite as dramatic as the west though, so it feels like a very different landscape!
Nice! Your videos should be seen by more viewers. May I repost your channel without changing anything on the clean platform named Gan Jing World? Thank you!
Was on Eriskay and the Uists in September for a period. Never exactly found the Eriskay or South Uist people particularly welcoming to visitors but noticeable difference with the locals up in North Uist who were very chatty. Quite strange to experience.
That’s interesting, we definitely never experienced anything quite like that on our trips. We have quite a few friends in North Uist and everyone is certainly very friendly there. I suppose it can just depend on the experience you have at the time.
@Going The Whole Hogg | Kim & Del We suspected two reasons at the time, the appalling Ferry situation for the South Uist people that has been on-going and also our English accents that appeared to go down like a lead balloon . Just a theory though.
Personally haven't noticed any difference but everywhere south of Benbecula is Catholic while everywhere north is Protestant. I certainly noticed a slight difference in the people Leverburgh ("Wee Free" country) compared to Lochboisdale.

Thank you very much Linda, really glad you appreciated it. Hope you manage to get out there next year 🤞🙂
Your films are so beautiful they make me cry! I wish I could be there! It's my paradise! Thank you!
Thanks, Anna! I hope you get to visit some time and see it for yourself! Or maybe you have been already?!

Thanks David, that’s really kind of you to say. Lots of hard work and thought behind this so we really appreciate the great compliment. Cheers!
Beautiful
Thanks for watching and appreciating, it's a beautiful place indeed!
Loved it. Especially the cockles, some of my favourite shellfish to forage
That’s great, thanks! The cockling was fun, and the cockles delish 😋

Your Camera techniques is so Rad ⚡TOP NOTCH, way way better than the most Hollywood movies camera man🎖️📹 ❤
High praise, thanks very much! Glad you enjoyed the visuals 😃
Thank you so much for such a helpful and well produced video.
You’re very welcome Michael, thanks for watching 🙂
Beautiful as always. It makes me want to pack my bags this second and come back to Scotland!

Great video, going to work the season there soon. Very informative as I'll be taking the camera for some wildlife photos.
Fantastic, that'll be a great experience I'm sure! Hope you capture some good wildlife shots 😃

Thanks Mason, that’s a really nice appraisal, very much appreciated. Hope you have time visit Scotland again and see the Outer Hebrides for yourself 😃

Another great video. Thank you. Can i ask, do you get midges on North Uist?

WOW! The coastline is absolutely beautiful! It must have been hard to leave. Your drone footage is outstanding. Isnt Scotland your homeland?
Really beautiful! I love the Outer Hebrides, always happy to return! Yeah, we are from Scotland, both from the east coast though.
@@GoingTheWholeHogg I’m from the US, so would love to see the east coast!
@@robinsavard84 nice! Well the east coast definitely has some amazing spots, generally speaking not quite as dramatic as the west though, so it feels like a very different landscape!
Kim/Del stunning bloq and absolutely great footage. What drone are you using. Keep up the good work.
Cheers, David! We have a DJI Air 2s, a fantastic upgrade from our Mavic Air.
Nice! Your videos should be seen by more viewers. May I repost your channel without changing anything on the clean platform named Gan Jing World? Thank you!
