I'm from Scotland and I can't believe how lucky you were with the weather. You should be glad you didn't visit in the winter when it can get quite rainy.
Balamory! Balamory! Whats the story in Balamory, wouldn't you like to know? What's the story in Balamory, where would you like to go? Will there be treats with Pocket and Sweet? Is that where we should go? Balamory!
Holy Mother of God, I can't believe you're in Scotland. I'm English but some of the happiest times of my life have been spent in Scotland, which is the most beautiful country in Europe. When we were kids we used to go up to Lewis and Harris (same island). Some of the most beautiful beaches I've ever been on are there. I've had many a happy play on Bosta beach on Lewis and Luskentyre on Harris. You're the wrong time of year but in the summer the water is turquoise and the sand is white and they are so quiet you can run naked and there's no-one to see you but the sheep. Not that I'd ever do such a thing of course.
This scenery is truly stunning and it's great to hear you have such fond memories of Scotland! Would be something to see the beaches in the sunshine next time 🤞

It's because it's so miserable up here, that if we let it get to us, we'd all fucking kill ourselves. A sense of humour and comedic self-deprecation is the only way to deal with it.
Just got back from Scotland (14 nights)....such a magical place. Our weather was incredible - very little rain - autumn coolness in July. Mull and Skye were unbelievable!
We often take for granted that which is on our own doorstep, so nice to see a visitor's perspective. Apologies for the weather, but you braved it out - - - well done.
I always enjoy, see visitors to my country, enjoying their experience. We're especially welcoming to our visitors and are a very, inclusive culture. I'm proud of that.

This is real Scottish weather! Once you’ve experienced it you begin to understand the people so much better. Ive walked miles through this kind of weather. The countryside reveals another side of its nature, and it’s beautiful! It’s amazing! I miss it so much!
Cullen Skink isn't a Scottish Chowder. Chowder is a version of Cullen Skink. Where do you think Chowder came from? It was Scottish immigrants to the USA who brought with them the recipe, which became chowder. Same as Meat and 2 veg and Biscuits and gravy and pancakes. All scottish recipes.
At 2:24 the remains of cottages behind you in Glencoe are all that's left of the people evicted from the land in the 19th century. There were more people living in the Highlands in the 19th century, than do now. Nice, authentic video.Really good.
Nice vid...looks like you had fun! If you ever get the chance to come back, contact us and we can give you a personalised Outlander Tour! :) Have a great day!
After I left the military, I managed to get what was the best job in the world. Driving tourists around the highlands, mainly Americans and Canadians nearly all had some Scottish ancestry. I always felt that I had passed through a time warp whilst driving up the highland boundary fault line. After Glasgow and Edinburgh, the highlands just seemed to be so chilled and the itinerary never put pressure on you to put the foot down. The days seemed to be longer and you had more time to show our happy tourists some hidden gems that weren't on the schedule. I was being paid to tour my own country with the most pleasant people you could meet from across the pond. I am so glad you both had a great time and accepted whatever weather Mother Scotland threw at you. I have had a few passengers moan if it didn't rain lol
My wife is from Switzerland, she came here 3 times and loves it as many Swiss do, (Switzerland is my fav country as its beautiful and gets good warm weather) But we have had some great spring, summer, autumn weather alate, and am so proud to live here, M y wife says its the culture and music she loves so much,traditional and folk, with the historic battles with the English and all. I also think most countries have something unique and beautiful. So Good health and ach aye ti yis awe.
This is quintessential Scottish weather so in that respect this is the “ideal” time to be there! It’s what made the Scots the rugged people who can withstand hardships of all kinds. And also why Scotch is the great whisky it is! These two intrepid American adventurers get it! Love the video. I’ve subscribed!
Thank you for being such gracious visitors embracing the climate like natives.Part of the magic is when eventually the sunshines the whole landscape changes.Your visit is typical of out summer holidays we spent playing cards in a caravan waiting for rain to stop so kids could go to the beach to collect shells and crabs..with their summer outfits of wellington boots and parkas
We spent a month in Callendar. Such a wonderful little town and the Trossachs were so beautiful. And we are staying in Cullen right now! Cullen Skink is delicious. Glad I found your channel. -H
Correct spelling is Callander - apolgies for pedantry !!! Some footage from the 1959 version of "The 39 Steps" was shot in the general area, around Loch Achray, likewise Dunblane.
I did this same tour with Rabbie's a couple years ago and it was definitely my favorite tour I've ever done. Scotland is so beautiful! Hope you enjoyed your trip!
those cows are highland cattle are mostly scottish,we don't have them much in ireland at all.some farmers do keep them,but its not common here at all.We have a mountain breed called the kerry mountain cattle ,but they are black and shorter haired and nearly went extinct .The sheep took over as the grazing animal in the upland areas so they was not much need for a mountain breed of cattle whether our own or the scottish highland breed which would probably find it too warm here anyway
The Clachaig Inn is at the west end of the Aonach Eagach a fearsome mountain traverse. You only get the relief of reaching there if you have done the full job not arriving by Rabbies Trailburners minibus.
Lovely! So glad you got to see the cows. ☺️ My uncle used to raise those cows in West Virginia and I always loved visiting and seeing them. They’re really beautiful. He had a bull named Ben that I thought was especially fantastic. But Ben kept getting out and causing trouble so at one point when we came to visit, I asked my uncle where Ben was and he said, “The freezer.” 😳😭😆
I enjoyed that. Nice video. As someone who lives and photographs across Scotland it looks like you got lucky with the weather. The good thing about the rain and wind is it keeps the midges at bay.
Serinmary Pulikottil you should really change that. We are one of the most naturally beautiful nations in the world and have ancient towns and cities with buildings that go back 1000 years and ancient monuments and settlements which were made around 4000BC. Outlander is just a show and Iv never seen it even though I’m Scottish. I’m more of a game of thrones person. Which is all pretty much based on Scottish and English history. We have mountains of all shapes, thousands of lochs, Loch Ness has more water in it than all the lakes in England and Wales added up. We have ancient monuments, ancient forests, the only arctic plateau in the British isles, the highest mountains by far in the British isles, over 800 islands, some look like the Caribbean and some are like a miniature Iceland, we are one of the most naturally varied nations for our relatively small size. We have some of the richest histories in the world, produce the best whiskies, have oil in abundance, have clear seas and white beaches, a regal capital city with a 500 year old castle and the city centre of Edinburgh is entirely a world heritage site, the top accolade than can be handed to a city. We live on the edge of the Atlantic and have crazy weather and counter to belief you can get incredible sun here in Scotland. But due to us being on the Atlantic we get all the leftover tropical storms from the Gulf of Mexico, which makes Scotland considerably warmer than continental lands at the same latitude. We invented everything from the telephone to the TV and are a country that has stood for 1000 years. So if you love outlander, just search Scotland on wiki and have a read.! We are an amazing place. That often get overlooked.
@@donlockhart1626 I was fascinated by Scotland because of the show. I found the beauty of your country and the valor of your people from that show as I have never been to Scotland, Now it's top on my bucket list to visit scotland, may be even study in Edinburgh(I would really like to study there). I agree to each and every word you have just said, Scotland is indeed beautiful. Plus the show does capture Scotland's beauty
After merciless California summer this weather makes me want to be there. Thankfully the winter is coming, that means 15-16°C days, passing rains, and green luscious hills. Kind of like Scotland.
Typical weather forecast for Scotland. "Cloudy, rainy and windy with a chance of more clouds, rain and wind. Possibility of sunny intervals next week or next month".
If u come to Scotland try try for June , July maybe even a little later,shout out from inveraray ,Google maps the cobbler arrochar,the rest and be thankful,inveraray castle give u an idea of Argyll and and west Scotland
If you come back, go up to the north east and visit Orkney. Islands again, but very different. If you think 2 thousand year old stones are good, the Ring of Brodgar in Orkney is more than twice as old. We have puffins and seals and whales and amazing skies, and if you come at the end of June, it never gets completely dark - the sun does dip below the horizon, but the sunset and the sunrise blend together in one amazing twilit spectacle. There’s a strong Scandinavian influence, Orkney was under Scandinavian rule for a lot longer than it’s been part of Scotland, and the two cultures have blended into something unique.
You should climb that hill/mountain at Edinburgh. Luckily whenever i have been to Edinburgh its been dry. Glasgow is a nice place too. Nice people there.
There is so much to see in Scotland! I am a scot who has not even seen/travelled all of Scotland! So much to see which are not on the map! I am now a pensioner and I only travel to Rannoch each year as we have a timeshare there. We visit the nearby towns and villages, even take the odd train trip from Rannoch station to Fort William. We have been to most places in our country before it became famous, as there has been a glut in blogs of Scotland being aired on UA-cam these days! Shame you never got the weather on this blog you shared with us, but at least you found some good meals! Haste ye back!
I think the people on Mull must be very honest. I walked through Tobermory a few years back and lay outside a house was a large (and expensive) roll of lead sheeting used for roofing work. You wouldn't dare leave something like that available for anyone to steal anywhere else.
These two have a wonderful attitude about experiencing new things. They will go home with memories they will never forget and not spend a minute complaining. Be like them.
You can't get your head around two and a half thousand years ago ? it's only the ten times before America was invented and brought to the modern world! Ten times older than the culture you are trying to impress upon the world. Don't forget, we had it first. By millennia,,,,
Apparently it's not normally this bad.. Locals said the weather was been unusually windy/rainy since the end of August but the fog was pretty special to see
It’s a toss of a coin for what the weather will be, however you might need to toss it several hundred times before it falls in your favour. That said, I love a bit of wind and rain... if you want nice weather then fuck off somewhere else. 🤣
Yesss, I went to mull and climbed up Ben more and it was STUNNING. I also went to Tobermory, which was where the classic “balamory” British tv show was filmed. So beautiful and I only live down south of England, so we can visit slightly regularly. I want to live here in future.
I know this video is over a year old now, however, the hill on the opposite side of the road from the clachaig inn at glencoe is where they filmed most of the hagrids hut scenes in the later Harry Potter films. The hut was there for over a year.
Happy Thanksgiving to you both! My fiancé and I absolutely love your videos. You should check out Cape Breton Island in Nova Scotia sometime...i think you guys would absolutely love it. July to October is best time to travel to Cape Breton Island....check out the Cabot Trail ;-). Enjoy Scotland .
Thanks so much, Johnnie! All the best to you and your fiance this Thanksgiving :) And the Cabot Trail is definitely on our list of road trips we hope to do one day 🤞
If you come to the Highlands when the weather is great and the sun is shining it is paradise on earth. However we need the rain because it makes the place what it is.
I'm from Scotland and I can't believe how lucky you were with the weather. You should be glad you didn't visit in the winter when it can get quite rainy.

Such a beautiful video, you made me want to go there next summer . Thank you
Yesss, I went to mull and climbed up Ben more and it was STUNNING. I also went to Tobermory, which was where the classic “balamory” British tv show was filmed. So beautiful and I only live down south of England, so we can visit slightly regularly. I want to live here in future.
It would be a beautiful corner of the world to call home!
Oh and that's not fog! It's the clouds!
Just stumbled across this video👍
Interesting to see Scotland from a different view😁 great video
And yes I’am Scottish 🏴
Thanks, Roderick!! Hope we can go back and see more of Scotland one day 🤞
The cows ? Youre talking about highland cattle....quite rare and expensive too
Deservedly so. Beautiful things and taste rather good.
I know this video is over a year old now, however, the hill on the opposite side of the road from the clachaig inn at glencoe is where they filmed most of the hagrids hut scenes in the later Harry Potter films. The hut was there for over a year.
You dont need to pack your sun screen for Scotland !!! Glad you enjoyed our beatiful country,haste ye back.
The 3 sisters of Glencoe, nice recognition. I'm from Fort William and its nice to know that people take the opportunity to get the History.
Nice fishing up that way!
Happy Thanksgiving to you both! My fiancé and I absolutely love your videos. You should check out Cape Breton Island in Nova Scotia sometime...i think you guys would absolutely love it. July to October is best time to travel to Cape Breton Island....check out the Cabot Trail ;-). Enjoy Scotland .
Thanks so much, Johnnie! All the best to you and your fiance this Thanksgiving :) And the Cabot Trail is definitely on our list of road trips we hope to do one day 🤞
Enjoyed the video but thought you were a bit condescending about the "BnB" and it's considered bad manners to wear a hat indoors !
Sorry you didn't get some sunshine but we always say here that there's no such thing as bad weather, just the wrong clothing.
I'm from Inverness, that comment at 1:39 about seeing all the animal poop but no animals had me laughing my head off!!
Get a tent or camper van and do the north coast 500.
I promise you won't regret it!
Thanks for the tip!
Tobermory, Western Isles Hotel, room number 1, haunted!
If you come to the Highlands when the weather is great and the sun is shining it is paradise on earth. However we need the rain because it makes the place what it is.
Don't get too close to cows with young cows because the cows could see you as a threat. Think a cow stamping on someone is like getting hit by a car.
as someone who used to live in tobermory, thanks for making this lol
Now you know why we are shit at sports. The fucking ball blows away. No joke.
Calgary is stunning. I'm still hoping one day to stay on Mull and get to Fingals cave!
You‘ve never seen a goose before?😢
Pity about the weather. You've missed some amazing scenery. Watch Steaming Boots Productions on UA-cam and you'll see what I mean.....
Thanks! Will check them out :)
😂😂😂 you want to see highland coo lmao not many of those around scotland nowadays
Y’all did a great job with this video. Thank you for sharing your experience.
Thank you, Casey!
Are these swans! Shit man have you not seen a goose!
"I want to see a cow! " You guys need to get out more!
Good to see people enjoying Scotland but stop thinking it is part of outlander, it's only a tv series
And a rubbish one at that. Love Scotland, but Outlander is crap.
awe you poor souls however you need to look for weather forecasts before you travel
I love the choice of music in this vlog
I think the tobermoray in canada is named after the scottish one as is calgary
