You have never made a duff video yet, Steve. Your videos are gold-plated in my opinion. So natural and down to earth. I have seen many vids of Scotland that sound so pompous; but not the Steve Marsh Productions! May you have the enthusiasm and the will to carry on making these absolute gems. Thank you.
Who in their right mind would skip the Skye journey montage?... Awesome looking trip to a wild and remote place - my idea of a great holiday. Pity about the bad news, but it still looks like a great place to spend some time!
Thanks for saving me the trouble of writing the comment about the Skye footage! I immediately suspected he might be going to St Kilda - it's on my list too but the crossing's always going to be weather-dependent.
Steve, your video evokes wonderful memories for me: I visited Sky about 40 years ago, there was no bridge yet. I loved the island. A few years later I traveled to Thurso where I took the ferry to Shetland island, a choppy crossing, but what an exciting adventure. Thanks 🙏 I love your channels because thanks to you I can revisit places I loved. Have done backpacking to many countries in the world up to before the Covid! Hence I enjoy your traveling adventures. Now at 81 I travel less because need some more comfort 😂😂😂 Cheers from Vancouver, Canada
Steve, your videos are the next best thing to actually being there. I love how you always ensure a gentle pace, which allows us the sense of journeying with you, almost in real time. Your camera work and editing are top notch too and I even enjoy your cheesy sense of humour! Marvellous, Mr Marsh!❤
All Scottish, Welsh and English should give thanks that they all live on such beautiful island (and surrounding islands). Yes it rains there a lot but the island of Great Britain is simply stunning.
That's why the island is so fertile, productive and green! A Spanish engineer coming to England for the first time, to work with a friend of mine at a British firm of engineers, said as she flew into England, that she couldn't believe how green everywhere seemed.
Hi Steve, I'm sorry but this is a sad comment. Whilst watching your video this morning along with my Golden Retriever, Ruby, ( I was telling her I was going to take her to Clachtoll beach), she suffered a stroke. By 1pm, the Vet had been and Ruby was gone. I do apologise for the sad nature of the comment but the past few hours have been some of the worst. You have inspired me to get back out and your videos continue to inspire. Today's trip would have been one she would have loved. Please give Ruby a shout out sometime, especially on a beach somewhere xxxx RIP Ruby 29/04/12-25/05.24.
Thanks for the memories. My husband of 55 years passed away last December and this video brings back great memories of a great week my husband and I and our Springer Spaniel had on Harris back in the early 90's. We took the ferry from Uig to Tarbet and stayed in a cottage right by the water's edge just south of Tarbet. Sunshine every day albeit it April. Looking forward to the next video.
Thank you for sharing Scotland with us. I've been wearing kilts and playing the bagpipes for 54 years, but I grew up in, and live in, California. Seeing Scotland with my own eyes may never happen, so I really do appreciate the time you take to show us this wonderful land.
You know, every Saturday I rush home from work, grab a bite then settle into the living room with my fiancée. Do we put on Britains got talent? Do we watch a movie? No, we’re straight on to youtube to see the latest Steve video. You are without doubt one of the most inspiring people to grace our TV screens. I hope this continues for many more years. Thanks for the videos Steve, we all owe you a lot.
With all the hectic times the world is having at this particular moment, you seem to have a great deal of peace and calm in you journeys. The beauty of the areas in which you go are so clean and the people are so friendly. These are the "Gold Standard" in which others should aspire to be. Walter
'Prefer to skip the Skye montage?' he asks. Am assuming that was a joke and people would have laughed if they hadn't been stunned into speechlessness by the very montage we were being offered to skip. Gorgeous scenery! So was Harris! Cracking wee hotel you're in. I seriously wish I could drive so I could go to places like this. Alas, too old and too anxious to learn now. Will just have to live vicariously through you, Steve x
Lovely to see Sligachan. I had a mate who rented a cottage there for a winter, so that he could play his enormous hifi properly loud without bothering anyone. I visited several times from Edinburgh - taking the long distance bus (I don't remember if I had to change in Glasgow, but I don't think I did). Spent Hogmanay at the hotel ceilidh - now that was a proper party. I remember the first time stepping off the bus - it stopped some distance from the hotel, on the other side of the bridge - and into the sleet and inky blackness, wondering how on earth I was going to be able to find my way to the cottage. But then I heard the mighty hifi from up the hill which led me, slipping and sliding on ice and slush, like a beacon in the night to warmth and safety and very loud music and whisky. It was ace.
I realized on second watching that "CalMac" is "Caledonian MacBrayne", and it reminded me of something I read in a history of Scotland, that you might appreciate, Steve. Apparently, in the early part of the last century, islanders had a satirical quatrain about the ferry company's monopoly on transportation in the Hebrides: "The earth belongs unto the Lord, and all that it contains. Except, of course for the Western Isles, for they are D. MacBrayne's."
Steve, your travels soothe my homesickness for the North Sea. Yes, I know, it is the Atlantic but looking out over the waves, I imagne the salty air and the brisk wind of my old home of Ostfriesland. Thank you for your videos. Antje in upstate New York.
Hi Steve. I live in Cape Town. A few years ago, on my visit to Scotland, I traveled to the Island of Iona. It was one of the best trips. From Glasgow to Iona on train, ferry, and bus. Your trips to Hebrides make me long to come back again.
Watching this from "across the pond" - I forget that I don't have to be nervous or exclaim "oh no!" when I see you driving on the "wrong side of the road."
One of my late Uncles lived in Stornoway back in the 1970s and we travelled from England to visit him. Took the best part of a day to get there from the Midlands if I remember correctly. I was a small boy and my most vivid memory is of beaches that looked like they belonged in the Maldives or Caribbean instead, totally unspoilt by commercialism.
Enjoyed that. I did that trip in 2023 to play all the golf courses on the Outer Hebrides. For me the food on Calmac ferries is always excellent. See when you catch your first sight of Luskentyre beach .just wow. I video all the golf courses but hardly any of the travel so nice to watch it from a more detailed perspective. Cheers
Steve much as I like your journeys around Europe you can't beat the Scottish Isles.I am so grateful for your vlogs you are becoming my favourite vlogger. I would love it you could try and tick off all the populated Scottish Isles as I don't think I will ever be able to afford it myself. Thanks for all your work 😊
Lovely way to start my Sunday down in New Zealand. The weather here looks like the weather up there .. a bit chilly and rain on the way. Looks like a really nice place. Thanks Steve.
Whenever I watch your videos like these it makes me want to get up to Scotland like, NOW! I love seeing the journeys you take (who would want to skip the montage? not me). Looking forward to the next one Steve and I really hope you get to your intended destination 🤞
The Isle of Skye was my patch from 2006 through to 2016 when I was a clerk of works for the local authority and then the NHS. Seeing this makes me yearn for the Highlands once more.
Weirdly, I knew the name of the ferry before you did, and from a very odd source: a Silly Wizard concert in Atlanta, Georgia. Phil Cunningham talked about writing an ode to the wooden ferry that took people from Skye to Lewis and Harris, called "Ode To The Heb", when it was replaced by the modern ship, and joked that he'd make a fortune off people's nostalgia. Didn't work, he joked, "because they called the new one 'The Heb', too!"
Great videos. Summer 1984. Camped overnight at Uig with a 9 month old! Then over to Stornoway for a wedding. Luxury of 2 nights in a hotel there, then overnight camping en route back to North Wales.
One lifetime is not enough! We were visiting Skye on a beautiful sunny day ( like the day you were traversing the island) and we could see H&L in the distance. “Someday” we’ll go there we thought, but those days are dwindling down. Enjoying amazing vicarious travel through your channel from SF Bay Area. Thank you…!
Said it before on the channel we are truely blessed with a beautiful country. Some lovely scenes mate and thankfully the weather held strong for you 🤟🏴
Just lovely--those puffy white clouds over the mountains were amazing! Thanks for another gorgeous video. Now I can't wait to see if you made it to St. Kilda after all.
Great video again, thank you Steve for taking us with you. A Saturday without your video wouldn't be the same. Lovely music, too. Can't wait for the trip to continue ❤
Sadly haven't been able to follow your adventures recently due to personal circumstances, but great to be transported from my bed in a London hospital for a while and travel with you to the beautiful Hebrides. Thanks, Steve.
Great video. Brought back so many memories for me.I cycled up here from Wigan Lancashire in July 1965. The ferry back then was MV Hebrides but was not RoRo. It had a lift to bring vehicles up to the level of the pier. Also no Skye bridge. Look forward to your next video and hope you make it to St Kilda. I have watched loads of your videos and find them very interesting and informative. Keep them coming.
The Skye Bridge: I preferred the ferry Broadford Co-op: It's a right of passage Skye roads: I remember when they were all single-track, and virtually no traffic on them Fabulous video...
Mr. Marsh- the connection to the1937 Michael Powell film came out in the video. Thank you. Did you know a Powell 1945 film is set primarily on the Isle of Mull? What a film! Dame Wendy Hiller, Roger Livsey, Finlay Curie, Nancy Price, Pamela Brown, Petula Clark and the great John Laurie are in cast. Tobermory to Carrsig, the Moy Castle, Mac Neils, Mac Clains, Campbels and a "powerful, strong curse!"
I do recall spending some 5 days on Harris waiting for an improvement in the weather in an attempt to get over to St.Kilda some years ago. The original first sailing over from Harris was cancelled by engine failure, the second attempt with another company by bad sea conditions, but at the 3rd attempt we all eventually made it after almost 4 hours. St.Kilda is well worth the effort, Hirta the main island is supplemented by remarkable nearby sea stacks and marine life, especially interesting are some unique animal species and rare plants which are only found there and no where else. The old village, school and manse are all most interesting and full of history. Hope you eventually make it to your destination Steve and thanks for your most interesting and absorbing travel content.
St Kilda has regained some importance after the Ministry of Defence installed some new monitoring kit on St Kilda, the other year to detect Russian submarines sailing out to the Atlantic through what is known as the Iceland-Shetland Gap, so that NATO can map their fleet. In case anyone has missed it, We are definitely in Cold War 2.
Driving across the bridge to Skye can never replace my memory of a ferry crossing at sunrise & humming 'The Skye Boat Song" back in the day. I love all of Scotland but the Highlands & Islands are really special. ❤
I was fortunate enogh to visit Scotland in the spring of 24 and funny enough I was in Uig 4 days before this was filmed. It brought back a lot of great memories. If i ever get back to Scotland I'll buy you a pint if we cross paths
What a beautiful place. If you can’t get to St.Kilda think of it as a reason to go up there again. Living on an island I appreciate those skies and endless views.
Yes Steve, the Outer Hebrides are magnificent. A very long time ago, with a van, a girlfriend and of course myself, we did a complete exploration of all the islands using a 'Hopscotch' ferry ticket.(Uig, Tarbert, Lochmaddy, and back to Uig). How I wish GoPros and Dji Pockets had been around in those days. Love your approach to travel videos and commentaries.
Lovely place to stay and visit - I'll be back there again soon this summer... Slowly getting round the islands - love them. Thank you for sharing Mr Marsh.
Every time you do a video of scooting around Scotland, it makes me want to visit there SO MUCH. I have been to England a few times but never made it up to your neck of the woods, hopefully one day. Great job once again.
Saturday night here in Oz and Steve has posted a new video, hooray. Lovely ferry journey with calm seas and good views and a steak pie thrown in very enjoyable as usual. I do hope your trip to St Kilda goes ahead, until the next exciting instalment take care and stay safe, cheers from Oz.
Your videos with a ferry ride are among my favorites, how I wish there were ferries around here. I'm looking forward to this adventure, thanks for bringing us along.
Steve lad, that was a fantastic film, Forgotten how Bonny Skye is, was last there with a group weekend away on my 1000cc Honda! Fantastic empty roads! I’m too old for biking now but ma I’d love to take my Aston Martin DB9 for a blast up there! Why you’ve not got 500,000 subs I’ve no idea! Superb!👍👏👏👏❤️🏴
Thanks, that really wetted our appetite for a tour of the Highlands and Islands, Having lived up in the Borders for nearly 14 years you soon learn that all the various parts of Scotland have their unique beauty and quirks.
As an Irish speaker, I always find it weird when I see such familiar words on the signs in Scotland. Very little difference between Irish Gaelige and Scots Gaelic.
Oh Wow! Stunning & breathtaking. I simply love your videos of Scotland. Leaving us on a cliffhanger with St. Kilda! I do hope you made it Steve. The best You Tubers are always the ones who make you feel like you are actually there with them. Like going exploring with friends. I went all over Scotland when I was younger. I miss those days & can't do these things anymore, but have great memories. x J x
Yes it will be a MV, motor vessel with diesel engines, rather than a S S steam ship with steam boilers turning steam turbines. These ahipst are pretty rare now. Thank you for a lovely down to earth video. Haven't been to the Isle of Skye for a number of years so nice to see it again.
You have never made a duff video yet, Steve. Your videos are gold-plated in my opinion. So natural and down to earth. I have seen many vids of Scotland that sound so pompous; but not the Steve Marsh Productions! May you have the enthusiasm and the will to carry on making these absolute gems. Thank you.
I agree with you about the quality of the videos🎉
so glad we are back to classic Steve. A video with a ferry is a happy day.
Who in their right mind would skip the Skye journey montage?... Awesome looking trip to a wild and remote place - my idea of a great holiday. Pity about the bad news, but it still looks like a great place to spend some time!
Bad news? did I miss something?
Great minds...
I thought the very same thing.
Exactly what I wanted to write.
The ferry to St Kilda might not sail because of the weather.
Thanks for saving me the trouble of writing the comment about the Skye footage! I immediately suspected he might be going to St Kilda - it's on my list too but the crossing's always going to be weather-dependent.

Your camera work and editing are top notch too and I even enjoy your cheesy sense of humour!
Marvellous, Mr Marsh!❤
Sir, you take us all to places we wish we could go. Thank you for that. Through your genuine nature, we feel like we are there as well. Take care.
That’s exactly right. Nice guy and you feel you’re on that trip.
All Scottish, Welsh and English should give thanks that they all live on such beautiful island (and surrounding islands). Yes it rains there a lot but the island of Great Britain is simply stunning.
Couldnt agree more
That's why the island is so fertile, productive and green!
A Spanish engineer coming to England for the first time, to work with a friend of mine at a British firm of engineers, said as she flew into England, that she couldn't believe how green everywhere seemed.
Naaaaa,I'm happy in Ireland
Well you can’t have a green land without rain.
Hi Steve, I'm sorry but this is a sad comment. Whilst watching your video this morning along with my Golden Retriever, Ruby, ( I was telling her I was going to take her to Clachtoll beach), she suffered a stroke. By 1pm, the Vet had been and Ruby was gone.
I do apologise for the sad nature of the comment but the past few hours have been some of the worst.
You have inspired me to get back out and your videos continue to inspire. Today's trip would have been one she would have loved.
Please give Ruby a shout out sometime, especially on a beach somewhere xxxx RIP Ruby 29/04/12-25/05.24.
So very sorry for your loss.
❤
I'm so sorry to hear about Ruby... Rest peacefully 🐾
So sorry to read about your sad loss of Ruby. Just remember the lovely places and beaches you visited with her. Rest in peace Ruby xxxx
God bless Ruby...she will always be with you on your travels.
Thanks for the memories. My husband of 55 years passed away last December and this video brings back great memories of a great week my husband and I and our Springer Spaniel had on Harris back in the early 90's.

Thank goodness for lovely memories. They are so comforting as we grow older and lose loved ones.❤
Sending love & my thoughts. ❤
Only 55 - that’s incredibly sad. Memories are everything. Sending love to you. Xx

Love watching your videos Steve,outer Hebrides are definitely on my list.
Likewise, it's my evening viewing, I wish he was on every night 😉 & Alicja of course!
@@vivellasmum I’ve lost touch with all my favourite tv programmes lately 🤣
@@MrJud62 youtube is much more fun! This quality of programme is better than TV!

My Skye husband used to quote a 'bus-driver, a bit the worse for wear, who announced 'The next slig is at Stoppachan'.
I couldn't stop laughing when Steve said he's glad he remembered his car, and didn't just walk off the ferry as usual.
I realized on second watching that "CalMac" is "Caledonian MacBrayne", and it reminded me of something I read in a history of Scotland, that you might appreciate, Steve.

Scottish scenery is breathtaking even on video!
Another amazing video. I am getting seriously addicted to these videos of Scotland in particular
Steve, your travels soothe my homesickness for the North Sea. Yes, I know, it is the Atlantic but looking out over the waves, I imagne the salty air and the brisk wind of my old home of Ostfriesland. Thank you for your videos. Antje in upstate New York.
The beach, the sound of the sea birds, tearing at my heart. I loved the short holiday I had there.
Hi Steve. I live in Cape Town. A few years ago, on my visit to Scotland, I traveled to the Island of Iona. It was one of the best trips. From Glasgow to Iona on train, ferry, and bus. Your trips to Hebrides make me long to come back again.

Soooooo pretty!!!!!! I was talking to my mom and we booth found this channel independently!❤ I'm 47 she's late 70s
Another wonderful video showing a beautiful part of the British Isles.
It shows Scotland! Use its name! Show some respect!
Enjoyed that. I did that trip in 2023 to play all the golf courses on the Outer Hebrides. For me the food on Calmac ferries is always excellent. See when you catch your first sight of Luskentyre beach .just wow. I video all the golf courses but hardly any of the travel so nice to watch it from a more detailed perspective. Cheers
Wow - who needs to go abroad when you have places like this in the British Isles - absolutely gorgeous and on my list!
Love your videos nice couple looking forward to the rest of your videos best wishes to you both cheers nick 👍
Skip the driving montage? Never! Every moment in your videos is great. Beautiful video again!
Really cannot beat the scenary especially when the weather is like that. ❤
Scotland for me is paradise!
That drive through Skye was fab - those skies. That stirred memories - it hasn't changed much!
Steve much as I like your journeys around Europe you can't beat the Scottish Isles.I am so grateful for your vlogs you are becoming my favourite vlogger.
I would love it you could try and tick off all the populated Scottish Isles as I don't think I will ever be able to afford it myself.
Thanks for all your work 😊
Wow, unbelievable weather ! Amazing scenery. Thanks Steve.
When i see that lovely pictures, my heart opens. Thanks for sharing Steve. Greetings from the Netherlands, Ralf
Lovely way to start my Sunday down in New Zealand. The weather here looks like the weather up there .. a bit chilly and rain on the way. Looks like a really nice place. Thanks Steve.
Who would ever skip that Montage? Beauty as always Steve.. As they say,, what could possibly go wrong?
We vacationed in the outer Hebrides some years ago; it's so nice to see Harris again even if on video...
Whenever I watch your videos like these it makes me want to get up to Scotland like, NOW! I love seeing the journeys you take (who would want to skip the montage? not me). Looking forward to the next one Steve and I really hope you get to your intended destination 🤞

One lifetime is not enough! We were visiting Skye on a beautiful sunny day ( like the day you were traversing the island) and we could see H&L in the distance. “Someday” we’ll go there we thought, but those days are dwindling down. Enjoying amazing vicarious travel through your channel from SF Bay Area. Thank you…!
Said it before on the channel we are truely blessed with a beautiful country. Some lovely scenes mate and thankfully the weather held strong for you 🤟🏴
That is exactly my words about Scotland when I got to know your country's beauty: Scotland is a blessed one ❤
Coop = rip off
I don’t understand why anyone would move away from Scotland!
Beautiful scenery Steve, thank you for sharing. Always makes us want to plan a trip to Scotland!
Just lovely--those puffy white clouds over the mountains were amazing! Thanks for another gorgeous video. Now I can't wait to see if you made it to St. Kilda after all.
Great video again, thank you Steve for taking us with you. A Saturday without your video wouldn't be the same. Lovely music, too. Can't wait for the trip to continue ❤
The lowering clouds when driving in Skye at about 3 minutes were amazing.
Sadly haven't been able to follow your adventures recently due to personal circumstances, but great to be transported from my bed in a London hospital for a while and travel with you to the beautiful Hebrides. Thanks, Steve.
Good luck and get well soon!
Good old Caledonian MacBrayne. Oh how I hope to ride them again.
Great video. Brought back so many memories for me.I cycled up here from Wigan Lancashire in July 1965.
The ferry back then was MV Hebrides but was not RoRo. It had a lift to bring vehicles up to the level of the
pier. Also no Skye bridge. Look forward to your next video and hope you make it to St Kilda.
I have watched loads of your videos and find them very interesting and informative.
Keep them coming.
Views were breathtaking looking forward to the next video
The Skye Bridge: I preferred the ferry
Broadford Co-op: It's a right of passage
Skye roads: I remember when they were all single-track, and virtually no traffic on them
Fabulous video...
Mr. Marsh- the connection to the1937 Michael Powell film came out in the video. Thank you. Did you know a Powell 1945 film is set primarily on the Isle of Mull? What a film! Dame Wendy Hiller, Roger Livsey, Finlay Curie, Nancy Price, Pamela Brown, Petula Clark and the great John Laurie are in cast. Tobermory to Carrsig, the Moy Castle, Mac Neils, Mac Clains, Campbels and a "powerful, strong curse!"
Thanks so much for this!

That all sounds very familiar! 🤣

Skip the Skye montage?! No way! I watched it twice! Absolutely loved this video!
This is just sooooo beautiful. I wish I were there❤
Miss the montage of Skye, never!
Love the look of Harris. Great video
Driving across the bridge to Skye can never replace my memory of a ferry crossing at sunrise & humming 'The Skye Boat Song" back in the day. I love all of Scotland but the Highlands & Islands are really special. ❤
The song would never be the same with the line - ov’er the bridge ta Skye
I was fortunate enogh to visit Scotland in the spring of 24 and funny enough I was in Uig 4 days before this was filmed. It brought back a lot of great memories. If i ever get back to Scotland I'll buy you a pint if we cross paths
A Beauty! Watched twice! Thanks!
Wherever you choose to go, only amazing scenery left & right, up & down! Really worth getting out there, either hiking, trailing or simply strolling 💯
What a beautiful place. If you can’t get to St.Kilda think of it as a reason to go up there again. Living on an island I appreciate those skies and endless views.
Yes Steve, the Outer Hebrides are magnificent. A very long time ago, with a van, a girlfriend and of course myself, we did a complete exploration of all the islands using a 'Hopscotch' ferry ticket.(Uig, Tarbert, Lochmaddy, and back to Uig). How I wish GoPros and Dji Pockets had been around in those days. Love your approach to travel videos and commentaries.
That opening shot is quite breathtaking! Eilean Donan has been on my Scottish to-do list for a while.
Lovely place to stay and visit - I'll be back there again soon this summer... Slowly getting round the islands - love them. Thank you for sharing Mr Marsh.
Dam Scotland is so beautiful. And, I’m a road trip guy. So looking forward to next video, weather be dammed. Thanks Steve. Again
Loved seeing the Isle of Skye, my family hail from there the Clan McLeod. ❤️
Good video ,what alovely journey and the colour of the waters blues turquoise, and interesting, thank you for sharing
What a fantastic area. We had a roadtrip across Scotland last year. I want to be back there. I miss it realy. It is so beautiful and relaxed
This one I’ve been waiting for Steve since your brief stop in Stornoway on a previous episode. Thank you
Excellent video, despite the outcome we know about. But I'm very much looking forward to the next video to see more of the Western Isles.
Hi Steve Paul from Kent another superb video Scotland is such a lovely place keep up the great work you are doing.
Brilliant video as usual, I do love my fantastic trips around Scotland with you and the amazing scenery, thanks for your efforts
Every time you do a video of scooting around Scotland, it makes me want to visit there SO MUCH. I have been to England a few times but never made it up to your neck of the woods, hopefully one day. Great job once again.
Callanish has to be plan B. Worth going to Lewis for all on its own.
Absolutely brilliant, Steve!
Thanks so much for sharing this beautiful journey !❤
What a beautiful place need to go there myself 👍👍👍
Saturday night here in Oz and Steve has posted a new video, hooray. Lovely ferry journey with calm seas and good views and a steak pie thrown in very enjoyable as usual. I do hope your trip to St Kilda goes ahead, until the next exciting instalment take care and stay safe, cheers from Oz.
Stopped for a coffee break in that hotel while touring about on the wee motorcycle, lovely place and people and the coffee and buns weren't bad either
Thank you Steve for the great video again. I will look forward for the next one. I like the music you are using.😀
How could we ever skip the Skye montage lol? So beautiful...
I very much enjoy your solo journeys! Beautiful photography and editing. Thank you.
Excellent..!! I have also tried to get out to St. Kilda.... good luck!!
Another great video. Lucky you to have at least one beautiful day with cooperative weather! Cheers,
Your videos with a ferry ride are among my favorites, how I wish there were ferries around here. I'm looking forward to this adventure, thanks for bringing us along.
Steve lad, that was a fantastic film,
Forgotten how Bonny Skye is, was last there with a group weekend away on my 1000cc Honda!
Fantastic empty roads!
I’m too old for biking now but ma I’d love to take my Aston Martin DB9 for a blast up there!
Why you’ve not got 500,000 subs I’ve no idea! Superb!👍👏👏👏❤️🏴
Do it!
I had similar weather in November up there with my Porsche. 🤓😏😉
Fantastic 💥
Ahhhh lovely lovely Skye! We had a fabulous fortnight here. There's a smashing waterfall in Uig that many people miss as it's quite tucked away.
Thanks, that really wetted our appetite for a tour of the Highlands and Islands, Having lived up in the Borders for nearly 14 years you soon learn that all the various parts of Scotland have their unique beauty and quirks.
It’s Been a Absoulute Pleasure Steve!
As an Irish speaker, I always find it weird when I see such familiar words on the signs in Scotland. Very little difference between Irish Gaelige and Scots Gaelic.
I want to go back. Beautiful place.
Oh Wow! Stunning & breathtaking. I simply love your videos of Scotland. Leaving us on a cliffhanger with St. Kilda! I do hope you made it Steve. The best You Tubers are always the ones who make you feel like you are actually there with them. Like going exploring with friends. I went all over Scotland when I was younger. I miss those days & can't do these things anymore, but have great memories. x J x
Brilliant a great video loved every bit of it. Well done
I can not wait every saturday morning to watch your videos with a cup of tea. Thanks you
Yes it will be a MV, motor vessel with diesel engines, rather than a S S steam ship with steam boilers turning steam turbines. These ahipst are pretty rare now. Thank you for a lovely down to earth video. Haven't been to the Isle of Skye for a number of years so nice to see it again.
Ravishing scenery.
