- Join us on our first ever road trip in a campervan, driving the Scotland nc500 in June 2018, starting in Inverness where we first pick up our vehicle! We took a clockwise route, taking in beautiful sights and wild camping along the way!
We hired our van from Moray Firth Campervan & Caravan hire, link below-

Very well done. We live in Inverness and your is the best version of the trip we have seen :)
hibberdmedia Thank you, much appreciated, we love Scotland so much! Kind regards, Simon
@@unowhotravelchannel If you are ever in Inverness in the future it would mbe good to meet you if you have the time. I am off to check out your viseos of Ireland now; although I spent the first 70 years of my life in Brighton I have an Irish Passport :)
hibberdmedia Ireland too is such a beautiful place, it’s great you have an Irish passport! Thanks for watching, hopefully you can tell we like to travel both around the UK and further afield too! With what’s going on at the moment we’re staying UK based👍

To me, you have shown yourself as a real adventurer for the year 2020.
I was always impressed. I will be happy with your video next year.
Thank you all the time. From your Korean friend
Thank you so much, we always appreciate your support, here’s to 2021👍
@@unowhotravelchannel That's my pleasure
wow nice trip friend and beautiful sights along the way
Scotland is beautiful and the campervan is very spacious
It’s a long but beautiful journey so many beautiful places that was capture
Wow, the video is good. I'll look forward to more awesome videos. Thank you for sharing the video.
Your video allowed me to have a glimpse of this place. 👍❤️🔔
Thanks for visiting
Fabulous vlog of my favourite country. Your videos are an absolute joy to watch. I always look forward to the next one. I’ve just returned home from a week in Arrochar, Loch Long. Stunning village. Went to Edinburgh again, toured the Trossarchs & Loch Lomond etc. We got snowed in so we had to stay another day. It was magical. I’m hoping to do the NC500 next year & the Outer Hebrides all being well. Would love to see more of Scotland. I never tire of it.
Thank you Tracey, sounds as if you had a great time in Scotland, regardless of the snow!Hope you get the chance to do both the nc500 and the Outer Hebrides, the latter was a particular favourite trip of ours...
Hi Simon and Elaine, we have just viewed your very informative video of the NC500 and I recognise that distinctive Midlander accent anywhere. We are Brummies and are planning the trip this year; Aug 2021 and cant thank you enough for the insight, especially seeing that you visited the places me and missus like to visit, Waterfalls, Lighthouses and Castles.
Thanks again mate.
Cheers Tony, we had a great time! Planning on hiring a camper again in May and doing the Outer Hebrides! Hope you have an amazing experience in August, take it all in! Kind regards, Simon👍
You guys got to experience so much! What an incredible trip and adventure considering the diversity in culture, landscape, architecture and food!
Americas Parks Thanks for watching, it was an amazing trip 👍👍👍
Wow so beautiful scenery, the lake and the mountain so awesome. And the selfie box very awesome. Everything was so amazing. I love nature.
Amazing falls and rivers... I love that nature!!!
This was lovely to watch, very relaxed and such a lovely couple. Thank you.
Excellent. We love watching other people's trips on the 500. Thanks for the reminders.
Campervan Tales Ah Thank you for watching, you know what a great route it truly is, we would recommend it to anyone to do! 👍👍👍
Nice one you two we did the NC 500 2 years ago we did it over 3 weeks we do love the north west of Scotland
Best Regards and all the best
Dave, Jo and Louie 👍😀🐾🍺🎄⛄️
One Man and His Whippet Dave Bertholini Cheers all, we loved it up there, plus the campervan was great fun! Next year we’re doing Wales again in an RV👍👍👍
unowho travel channel excellent we did Wales this year and probably Ireland next year
All the best 👍😀🐾🍺🍟🎄⛄️
Great and enjoyable road trip in Scotland..wish to make it too one day
Great video of NC500 I’ll be doing it next week 😊
I love driving through the mountains in Scotland. Hubby and I did a wonderful road trip a few years ago. So many good memories :)Jen
Great video, you’ve both just cheered me up, thank you so much.
Tom Graham Thank you Tom, glad you enjoyed it! We were due to do some more Scotland exploring this month but unfortunately this won’t be happening just yet. Many thanks for watching👍
Enjoyed the video, spent many years traveling in the northwest area. Glad you had a good trip. Wouldn't describe sleeping in a camper van as wild camping but maybe I'm just getting old and grumpy.
We loved watching this! We are renting a campervan for the first time in June to drive the NC500 and can’t wait! Great video and helped us to know what to expect. Thanks for taking us along!
Travels with V and Steve Thanks for watching and good luck with your trip! Looking forward to seeing your nc500 vlogs👍😀
Amazing video! Such a awesome nature scenery. Huge mountain and beach. Watching this feels so relaxing. Thanks for the tour .Always be safe and happy frends. 💕👍
Aus Like Thank you so much, always great to connect, have a great weekend😀👍
Great video, we’re doing a lot of that route next month, so some great ideas 😊
You will have a great time, thanks so much for watching...
This was incredible my new friends, Like 352!
I think I said this on your series. The NC500 misses out so much of that part of Scotland. It is only a taster for what that area has to offer :-) But then we are slightly biased ;-)
Desmond's Donders Very true, we will definitely explore different parts the next time we visit👍👍👍
Thank you for the info re the van. I did it in a car last time vans got to be the way to go
David Cannon Definitely , it wasn’t the largest of vans but it was perfect for us, hope all goes well👍
I may be doing this journey next week, well hopefully with the COVID-19 situation changing by the day. Really enjoyed this vlog and has given us some fantastic ideas of where to visit if we do make it. ❤️
This was one of the best videos on the NC500 I’ve seen. I’mso glad you enjoyed your holiday. Haste Ye back and maybe come and tour our beautiful Argyll next time.
Kirsten Easdale That is very kind, thank you. We’ve recently done the Isle of Skye with further Scotland adventures planned next year😀👍
wow what a great insight into the NC500 I've been to Scotland many times in my younger days with parents. We've just bought a VW camper van and are planning NC500 later this year. Great video thank you, can't wait :-)
Gray Burden Thank you so much for watching, really appreciate your comment too👍Great to hear you’ve bought a VW campervan, it opens so many opportunities! Hope you enjoy your nc500 trip, please let us know how you get on!😀👍
So epic road trip indeed my friends very beautiful sites along the way.
Greek Orthodox Vlogger it was one of our favourite adventures 👍
Wow a wonderful trip there in Scotland. So green and quiet. Gorgeous video.
Travel with Tommy Thanks for watching and commenting 👍👍👍
Wow... Those falls are amazing... Great landscapes there, friends. Enjoy...!!!
Olivier Rodriguez Thanks for watching 👍👍👍
An amazing trip.. thanks for taking us along
I really enjoyed this... Most nc500 I've watched mainly focus on the road ahead but I liked the fact you got out of the van and wandered about the views and scenery were incredible... I'm Scottish and yet to do the nc500... Yours was 1 of the best videos I've watched
We enjoyed our trip ChatterboxD and managed to film some lesser advertised spots too. Much better than just doing all the suggested things.
Really enjoyed this version of your trip. Thanks for the information along the way. Trev n Sue 😃👍🏻
Poshcats Camping Pleasure, hope you’re both well😀👍👍👍
Absolutely gorgeous area and stunning landscapes. Fantastic road trip and great travel video, friends. Thank you for sharing this beauty. Big thumbs up.
Greetings and wish you a Merry Christmas ang Happy New Year.

Thanks so much for watching, the places you've mentioned aren't actually on the nc500 route. We have actually done the Isle of Skye, you can find it on one of our other videos. Hope you enjoy...

A great little account of your travels. We’re hopefully doing the same in August. Did you decide on your wild camp sites beforehand or did you just take a chance as you want? Cheers
Wow, what an amazing trip!! :) Breathtaking sights!
Rivkah Hannah Thanks for watching 😀👍👍👍
Beautiful and hope you guys be safe all trip
Phatkan Bowden Thank you 👍👍👍
Hiya, your trip looks fantastic. We’re doing it the other way round at the end of this month and it’ll be our first experience of a camper too. Was it comfy to sleep in? And can you tell me where that precarious looking walk was just after Ullapool, please?
Stunning country thanks for video
Excellent. May I suggest you go to Isle of Lewis/Harris and Isle of Skye next. The beaches on Harris are just breathtaking
Mark Halliday Hi Mark, thanks so much for watching and commenting! Funny you should recommend those places, we were thinking of RVing next time in and around those areas, just a case of planning! 👍👍👍
Ferry across to Stornoway from Ullapool. Check out butt of Lewis lighthouse and port stoth beach right beside the lighthouse. Tolsta and Gary beaches are worth a look.Then head down through Stornoway to Harris, via Calanish standing stones to Luskentyre beach beyond Tarbet. Just amazing. Then ferry across to Skye.
Those cave carvings of names were amazingly neat and professional! Any idea of the dates?
From what we remember some of the carvings dated back to the 70s, fascinating really...thanks so much for watching...
@@unowhotravelchannel Is that all?!? (if you mean 1970’s! ). I thought they were ancient!
Merry Christmas💐💐 Very very impressive view from the sky and nice green place , love a lot and wishes to my lovely frndz 💖💖🤗🤗🎉🎉🎉
CCTV Exclusive Thank you so much for watching 😀👍👍👍
Nice video. Can you remember the name of the road map book that you used, it was very good as it showed all the POI and local services. Our trip to the 500 this year was cancelled due to lockdown hope to do the 500 next year after lockdown
Hi Roger. We got the map book
From the official nc500 website. We became members, paid a one off fee and received a pack which included the great map, we’d recommend it for the map alone! The following year we did the Isle of Skye, really enjoyed that too👍
@@unowhotravelchannel Thank you. Happy travels, keep safe.
Very fine. What kind of map have you used? The pictograms are wonderful seeing campsites and exspiriances. Thank you. Barbara
Barbara Happe Hi Barbara, thanks for watching. The map was from the official nc500 club! We paid a one off fee, can’t remember how much, but you get a “passport” that can be stamped on your journey plus the map. It’s worth joining just for the map alone, it highlights toilets, groceries, petrol garages, camp sites, everything you need for your journey! It you search online nc500, you should find it👍
@@unowhotravelchannel hi. Thank you very much
thanks for sharing my friend
Tout Le Monde - Cuộc Sống Canada Thank you for watching 👍👍👍
gorgoeus place and video! tfs with us this beautiful trip of yours 👌👌👌
dazzling wave Thank you so much for watching 😀👍👍👍
My wife and I watched your video today and loved it. We are planning a trip to Scotland in the Fall of 2020 and are weighing exactly where all to visit. In your video you highlight an NC 500 Map. However I have not been able to locate / purchase this map via Google searches. Can you please tell me how you obtained your "Official NC 500 Map"? Thanks so much. Again, loved the video and thanks so much for posting! The Clarks
David Clark Hi, thanks for watching and commenting, we got the map by joining the nc500 club via northcoast500.com. It was so useful and we recommend it if you’re going to do the route. Hope you have a great time! Happy New Year too👍🎉
@@unowhotravelchannel Thanks a lot for the direction! Appreciated. Happy New Year to our English cousins! :-)
Thats almost a reason to swap my caravan for a motor home. Stay safe🙂Mark & Coral

What map are you using? It’s fabulous. Thanks for such an informative video….I’m using it to plan my trip.
Hi, thanks so much for watching and commenting, always appreciated. We bought the map from the offical NC500 website, if you google it, you should find it. Really useful, as it has points of interest and other essentials such as fuel stations, toilets, campsites etc. Hope you have a great time, kind regards, Simon and Elaine
Thanks for taking the time to reply! 😊
Una ruta interesante y con muy buenas tomas. Buen trabajo. Saludos.

Hi guys, wondering where you got the NC500 passports? Great video guys! I’m planning on going next week!
Lewis Brown Music Hi, you can join the official nc500 club online, you pay a one off fee and receive the passport and map, the latter was so useful! Have a great time👍
good video of the trip, you must of added extra footage, I remember watching the original series but there seems to be some new scenes added now
Craig Betts We’ve added a few extra bits and pieces, but we were also aware of the running time...thanks for watching 😀👍👍👍

ATJH Travels Thank you 😀👍👍👍

I am Leo Thanking you 😀👍👍👍
Odd question, what map is it that you used during this journey?
My wife and I are planning a trip for 2022 along part or all of the NC 500 and your map looks like it’s full of good information.
We have a contact in Edinburgh who could probably get one to us if I new where to send her looking?
Nicely done video.
Thank you...we got the map from the official NC500 club online. We paid a one-off fee (can't remember the cost, sorry) and we got the map, book, stickers and other stuff...the map was so valuable and we will probably use it again the next time we visit...
Great weather to do some road trips. like 6
GUNNER Travel and Event Thank you😀👍
Beautiful...Merry Christmas Happy New Year

Hi can you tell me where to get the map you used for nc500 and also where do you get the passport from xx loved your video very informative we're going in June xx
Hi Nicola, we joined the official nc500 club, you can find it online. For a fee, can’t remember how much, you get both the map and passport! Hope you have a great time 👍
@@unowhotravelchannel hi we've joined do they send you the passport and map in the post now that we've joined x
Can I ask what map did you use, it looks good with all the parking wc's etc.
Thanks
Hi Philip, we got the map from the official nc500 club online. We paid a one-off fee and received the map, books and stickers. The map is quite brilliant as it details all facilities including fuel stations, groceries, toilets and more! Kind regards, Simon
@@unowhotravelchannel thanks Simon 👍
