20 sites to explore in Scotland

I traveled to Scotland for the first time in May 2018 and absolutely fell in LOVE with the country! It is such a gorgeous place with history everywhere you look! The 2 weeks that I spent there was definitely not enough to see everything that I wanted to, but here are my favorite places from the time I got to spend there. #scotland #whattodoinscotland #scotlandhighlands

That's amazing how green and beautiful it is there. Scotland is on my list of place to visit

[@NomadicBuff]

I hope that you get to go! It is such a magical place!

[@milicanesic6862]

I always wanted to visit Scotland. Now you confirmed everything that I thought about this. I lave the castels and how old everything looks. It looks like it has soul. Beutiful.

[@TheWorldnUs]

You certainly visited some amazing places in Scotland during your trip. And those penguins at 0:36 are too cute!

[@NomadicBuff]

I really did! It was an incredible, but busy 2 weeks! I know, aren't they though?! I had always wanted to see some, and now I have!

[@G3Travels]

Scotland looks very beautiful.. Stunning landscapes and castles.. Definitely on our bucket list! 😊

[@itsryanwilkes]

Yep im convinced that I need to visit Scotland again haha! When I was there last I only got to see Edinburgh for a short time. But there is so much more to see! That Devlis Pulpit place looked amazing - ive never even heard of it before. Thanks for putting this together!

[@LookWhosBlogging]

cool waterfall!! castle looks awesome too! I didn't know there are penguins there?! what is that at 0:47? the rock formation is so unique! Also that place with piles of rock is pretty neat. dang, everything is so green there. The cathedral interior looks cool too.

[@NomadicBuff]

Yeah, everything about Scotland is so magical! The cool rock formations are the Island of Staffa/Fingals cave. It was probably my favorite thing that we saw. The whole island is made out of those cool hexagon formations and those puffins live on top of the island. Scotland is really a must see destination :-)

[@AdventureEverywhere]

Wow, the Fingals Cave looked crazy beautiful. You've packed so many cool sites into one video. Thanks for the advice.

[@AlbertoMendoza]

I've always wanted to go to Scotland and this video makes me want to go even more. Love the old cathedrals, lovely montage.

[@AlexSimeon]

love how informative it is about the sights to see in Scotland! will be taking note of these for sure. thanks for sharing!

[@JoshRimer]

Looks beautiful! I'd definitely like to go explore Scotland. Can only imagine all the amazing nature and history.

[@NomadicBuff]

Oh it is so magical! I hope you get to go! to me, it felt like being transported back in time, driving through the fields and seeing ruined houses, castles, and seeing farmhouses that are clearly super old, but still in use. So cool!

[@CourtneyVictoria]

I LOVE Scotland, it is so beautiful. The Landscapes are incredible. I saw Puffins but in Wales, aren't they just amazing little birds? Fantastic video! Looks like you did a lot of exploring.

[@NomadicBuff]

we definitely did do a TON of exploring! Wish I would have had more time to explore some more. I loved seeing the puffins! They are such funny little birds!

[@cultureatz]

The lush green landscape and cliffs, just wow. I do hope to go to Scotland one day! And ruins are so fun to visit too. Edinburgh looks so nice.

[@NomadicBuff]

Oh I really hope that you get to go! Scotland is such a magical place that is just jam packed with history!

[@TheTravelsOfZ]

every single place is worth it, really good startup list. Love that building at 1:34.

[@ParichayMehta]

What a beautifully compiled list this is! I could see some stunning locations as well. I'm sure you had a blast exploring these beautiful locations. :) My favorite shot comes at 1:05 ♥

[@NomadicBuff]

I sure did! It was incredible to see all of those amazing sites! Hope you get to go someday!

[@TheJourneyest2016]

If you would like to take me to scotland with you next time I wouldnt be disappointed haha. So many cool places to see I loved the Cathedral and Fairy Glen left me speechless.

[@NomadicBuff]

ha ha that would be fun! Y'all seem like fun traveling companions :-) Yeah, it was such a fantastic trip and we saw so much, but we missed a ton too. So we will definitely be going back! Hope you get a chance to go too!

[@penguinswander]

My mother left Scotland when she was four so I've been over a couple of times to visit relatives. A lot of the places in your video I haven't heard of before. The Fairy Glen and Devil's Pulpit looked especially interesting.

[@HLireneLi]

👍 Superb video 🏞 Amazing landscape Thanks for taking us to many attractions 💚

[@JustinPlusLauren]

I'm going to Scotland for 2 weeks, leaving this Saturday, and of course leaving my planning down to the last minute! You've given me lots of additional ideas to add to my trip, thank you!!

[@NomadicBuff]

Oh my gosh, you are going to LOVE it there! Scotland is amazing! What are you going to do/see? I really want to go back to see some of the places that we missed last time!

[@TwoTravelingTexans]

Wow I can't believe you saw all that in 2 weeks! I just love Scotland. So neat you saw so many puffins. You gave me quite a few ideas for my next trip there.

[@NomadicBuff]

yeah, I was completely exhausted by the time the 2 weeks were up! but it was absolutely incredible!

[@RobsQuest]

erm, these penguins - did they fly?? Didnt knew they are able to do that - or are these no penguins? haha. Awesome landscape and really interesting places you visited !I rubbed the nose of the dog too! Haha

[@OneShotAdventures]

Scotland is so beautiful, looks like you got pretty lucky with the weather too! I've always wanted to do a road trip along the NC500. Need to get back there and check out these spots! How long was your trip?

[@NomadicBuff]

we were there for 2 weeks and our schedule was PACKED! we ended up cutting out a few things because there just wasnt enough time! I'm definitely going to have to go back!

[@GoTravelOnTheCheap]

I love all the green! I have a thing for castles, so I've been wanting to go to Scotland. Which castle do you recommend the most? What is the significance of the rocks in the circle formation? Thanks for sharing

[@NomadicBuff]

Scotland is such a magical place! I really hope that you get to go! As far as castles, there are so many great options. Would you prefer castles that are still being used or ruined castles? Dunrobin Castle and Cawdor Castle are great castles to see that are still in use/functional. (culturetrekking.com/dunrobin-castle/). As far as ruined castles go, I really enjoyed Doune castle, Elgin Cathedral, and spynie palace. I'll be putting out a video soon talking about the lore of the Fairy Glen (with the stone circle) but to make a long story short, it's a fairy playground. Scots believed that fairies would come here from their realm to ours to play.

[@myfamilytravelzone3936]

I will keep your list for our travel in this year, just not so sure if we have such a long time. What would you recommend to visit with kids in a couple of days?

[@miriamduron782]

Hello! I now have watched almost all of your videos. Its so nice to watch. I love your vlogs! And I love how you edit. You are really good at it! I love how you match the music to your videos and how you do the voice overs over other footage that you have. Oh....and the drone shots in your Oregon video!!!! I loved it!!! Love your cruise videos too. ❤ may I ask which editor you are using? I am making youtube videos with my kids too, and I'm just curious on what you are using and if I might be able to do that too. 😂🤣 PS: if you wanna come over to our channel, look for "Lucy UND Ellie" on yt search. (Not AND, because those are two different girls, we are UND 🤣😂). All the best from Vienna, Austria Miriam

[@NomadicBuff]

oh wow! Thanks so much! That really means a lot! It takes so much time, it feels great to hear that someone appreciates my videos! The program i use is Adobe Premiere Elements. Its pretty user friendly and I like that you can buy the program outright instead of paying monthly to use it. Ill definitely check out some of your videos when I have some time after work!

[@miriamduron782]

@@NomadicBuff thank you so much for answering. Oh yes, I know that takes a lot of time. ❤ I've watched some more videos from you today. 😂 Thank you very much, I will have a look at this program. Oh yes, we would be delighted to see you on our channel. ❤❤❤ See you hopefully soon and lets keep in touch. ❤ I'd love to talk more.
