Best of ISLE OF SKYE Vlog | 3-Days Exploring Everything

[@davidmuse1351]

My girlfriend and I just got back from 16 days of England/Wales/Scotland and very happily used this vlog as a loose template for our visit to the Isle of Skye -- excellent source material for us! Cheers!

[@SiempreSydney]

Ah! That's amazing to hear, thanks for sharing. Inspiring to keep making videos :) What did you enjoy the most?!

[@davidmuse1351]

@@SiempreSydney Wow, sorry for the incredible delay here! So, we did it exactly a year ago today. We very seriously misjudged the lead time we needed to make reservations so that we could really cover the island and had to make it a day trip given that we were staying in Invergarry. Still, we covered a great deal of ground in our day. So, my girlfriend enjoyed the Old Man of Storr hike the most, probably because of how dramatic it all is. We had incredible weather on our day -- absolutely beautiful. To be honest, I enjoyed seeing Portree, Mealt Falls and Kilt Rock(s), too, but I probably enjoyed our drive up and around the top of that same peninsula on A855 (there was absolutely no traffic when we did this for whatever reason) the most and over to Uig, at which point we ate at a small restaurant (neither of us can figure out what it was), made it to Dunvegan Castle and finally, due to time and the lowering sun, we cut due east, across the island and headed back out to Invergarry. The island, in and of itself, and the views are just astounding. We're hoping to do it again and really plan it out like you two did. You two really did it right -- very envious. Thank you again.

[@Agadora]

Thank you so much for this fantastic vlog, Sydney! My now husband and I (Chicago & TX natives) eloped to Scotland in June 2015 and were married on the Isle of Skye, near Elgol. (See avatar-ha!) Your gorgeous video captured the area/overall 'feel' so well, & brought back so many memories - I smiled, laughed & teared up all at once! (Return trip: 2020!) Thx again, I can't wait to check out the rest of your vlogs!

[@SiempreSydney]

Ah! This made my day :) Thanks so much for watching & leaving a note. How amazing - that would be such a beautiful spot to elope (I have goosebumps just thinking about it). Hope you have an amazing return to Scotland.... it's still stunning & has so many secrets waiting to be explored. Thanks again! xxx

[@jon3464]

Isle of Skye is such a pretty place. It was so beautiful the Quiraing brought a tear to my eye, lol

[@traceytree4631]

Thank you so much for a wonderful view of our beautiful Isle of Skye. I’m from Glasgow and I’m going there for a week in April. So glad you had an amazing time. Haste ye back 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@SiempreSydney]

Hopefully you make it there - it's such an amazing spot! Wish you the best X

[@traceytree4631]

Hi, unfortunately due to the Coronavirus we have had to cancel but hopefully will go at a later date ☹️

[@shaunvlog]

Really cool vlog. Those views are amazing. Both times I've been there the weather has been terrible but I really want to go back in summer

[@SiempreSydney]

We got super lucky with the weather and pretty much killed ourselves with hiking when the sun was out. It's hard to take a bad photo when the sun is shining there! Thank you though Shaun - really appreciate it coming from you! :)

[@miya.bakerxxx9186]

I'm not surprised it was bad weather we always get rain and wind here😩

[@Legionnaire7777]

Such a beautiful place,very mystical and being in the mountains in all sorts of weather makes you appreciate life and makes you feel at one with nature and feel alive. ❤ Isle of Skye

[@SiempreSydney]

I totally agree! We had a truly magical time :)

[@Vikingdescendent]

Amazing! Beautiful vistas, a cat and dog visiting you is a bonus...nicely done! Thx for posting.

[@SiempreSydney]

Thank you! Really glad you enjoyed it - we always love visits from the animals :)

[@BeautifuLakesStreamsBiologists]

I am emulating the Fairy Pools in a trout pond currently under construction. Thanks for the view!

[@leighdedhar]

Loved this video! Didn't know Talisker was located here! Now the isle is def on the list to hit

[@SiempreSydney]

Yes! I was so pleasantly surprised by Talisker, thought it would be way too smokey, but actually really enjoyed their core range. Also a great activity for any of Isle of Skye's infamous rainy days!

[@Aritul]

Thank you for this video. The scenery is absolutely stunning.

[@SiempreSydney]

Thank you! Agreed - it's a truly incredible place!

[@katkanegyke177]

I live on Skye... this place is pure LOVE!!! 💕

[@SiempreSydney]

Agreed! Magic in the air :)

[@WyeExplorer]

A fabulous tour around....you certainly found the best b&b. There were of course magnificent places on the tour but you missed out the Cullin mountains. I was hoping. Any how, a memorable trip. Mark.

[@SiempreSydney]

A reason to go back! It's always hard to get some good hiking in when your days are limited - I'll definitely be checking your channel for tips :)

[@WyeExplorer]

You're right of course. If you have demands then you have to have good time management I guess and you can't do everything. Mine is less tips more adventure and a project to explore a river...some great hikes on my channel though, which was my dear twin brother Paul's also but he tragically died in November. So if you take a look Paul's there in spirit. Take care and the very best. Mark.

[@SiempreSydney]

I can't wait to dive into all of it - what a neat project. I'm so sorry for your loss, I will definitely keep Paul in mind in the videos

[@WyeExplorer]

Hi Sydney, many thanks for your kindness. I think you create very good videos and convey yourself well my friend. Keep at it. I will visit again. Mark.

[@lakecomo7762]

I lived in Skye for four months but I missed Cullin mountains, too...But I will be back next May. Do you know if 2'05" of video by Yuri Palma on his youtube channel is a shot from Cullin area?

[@lchristomos]

Briliant and beautiful, Sydney! Shawn and I thoroughly enjoyed the tour. I love, love, love Isle of Skye. Last time there was in1992 but it looks just as beautiful as I remember. Happy Travels!

[@SiempreSydney]

Ahhh that all means so much. Thank you! Skye was an incredible place, I could see you guys (and Txuri) settling in quite well there. Miss you all ... maybe it's time for a Scotland trip??

[@alexrobinson2281]

Not exactly on the way , did you get lost ?

[@PJBubbles]

I only had a day on a bus tour from Inverness last fall, so I just got a wee taste of this beautiful place!

[@SiempreSydney]

It's so beautiful!

[@att2929]

Finally a good video with nice camera work.... Thanks for your upload!!

[@SiempreSydney]

Thank you! Really appreciate the kind words :)

[@andrewheywood6252]

Fantastic video well filmed and presented. Really liked the way you put in the post code (zip code) of the locations you visited.I spent two fantastic weeks on Skye many years ago now & have to say the Quiraing walk (featured) is one of the best days you can ever have, stunning views ... real 'Lord of the Rings' landscape.Well done I shall subcribe to your channel

[@SiempreSydney]

Thank you! Yeah post codes are such an amazing source of information over here :) We got super lucky with the weather & you're right - such a Lord of the Rings type feel! Thanks for subscribing & watching! :)

[@lakecomo7762]

Andrew, after having watching the video by Yuri Palma on his youtube channel( BEST landscape I have ever seen...on Skye... you will understand why...), do you know where is the cave there shown, then 2'08", and base of waterfall shown at 1'35"?

[@jonathanmiller4467]

It really is - such an incredible, magical place! So happy you enjoyed it :)

[@ianclark6485]

Will be camping here this time next week, can't wait!

[@SiempreSydney]

Have so much fun! Wish I could be there, I'll cross my fingers for good weather for you!

[@BeInspiredToTravel]

Planning my trips for this year, thank you for making this video really helped me to make my decision, definitely going to Isle of Sky.

[@dirk8980]

Hi, what a great trip down memory lane that was. Thanks for sharing. Been there in 2009 and 2015. Can't wait to be back there. First time we went was in July and the traffic wasn't all that bad. Not sure how the situation is now. I've heard that it can get very crowed at The Man Of Storr carpark in the summer months. I really could live there. Don't mind the bad weather.

[@SiempreSydney]

Dirk Goris Hi there! How wonderful that you've been twice - definitely worth it. A tiny island that has so much to offer. :) good to know about the tourist season! what I can't quite imagine are the big buses heading up the windy roads to the quiraing!

[@dirk8980]

Indeed. That's scary. I like driving on those small roads. Adds to the adventure. It's a magical place. How do you like Aberdeen so far?

[@SiempreSydney]

Completely agree! Something special about it that makes it feel even more remote. And so far I really have enjoyed our time in Aberdeen! It's a beautiful city and if you have a car, there is so much to do nearby. Nice people too :) I work for BrewDog - which keeps me busy, but also makes for a wonderful built in community up here in the Northeast! I'm hoping to do a "weekend in Aberdeen" & an apartment tour video here soon! Where abouts are you based?

[@jim8oy]

Great video guys! Many thanks.

[@SiempreSydney]

Thank you! :)

[@tomrandall6539]

A nice little video this, showing some of the great sights to see in Skye. I was there last November, and going again this October. I only read a few days ago that the island gets swamped with people in the summer seasons, which I had no idea about! I definitely prefer the quieter months. There's so much to see and do here, and coupled with the deep history including that of the Vikings makes it a fairytale place to visit. Am thinking of logging the next trip myself; I see you're using Olympus cameras for it... I've relied on mine for the last couple of years and they are incredible bits of kit!

[@SiempreSydney]

Thanks Tom! So happy to hear you enjoyed the video - Olympus's are amazing right! If you love the Vikings I would DEFINITELY recommend getting up to Orkney & Shetland. Especially Shetland in January for the Viking festival... Definitely on my bucket list! However Orkney is a bit closer & amazing as well - siempresydney.com/travel/europe/orkney-islands-mainland-west-coast/ (just incase you want a sneak peek) ;)

[@saracobb6570]

It's 2023 and I loved your video! Can you tell me what time of year you visited?

[@purnagurung9068]

One of the most beautiful places i have ever been to.

[@joeninety4740]

The best time to visit Scotland, i'd say is mid August. June is often rainy and July, can be hit or miss.

[@janeemerson7879]

Joe Ninety och no August is the Rainy season!!

[@TheSuprahuman]

Great blog, been there twice and going back again this summer. Love the place.

[@ScunneredScotsmen]

Hey! Have you been to Glasgow!? We recently posted our top 10 things to do in Glasgow video and we are trying to showcase Scotland. Would love your thoughts on our content and would appreciate a sub if you enjoy our content! We are going for our first 100!

[@SiempreSydney]

Thanks :) It's really incredible huh.... I need to get back over there - also dying to visit the outer hebs!

[@SiempreSydney]

Hey! Yeah I actually have a Glasgow Vlog as well :) such a good city! Best of luck with your videos

[@bigstoozeradventures]

What a fantastic beautifully presented video. Loved it. You have a new subscriber. Cheers. Stoozer. 🤠

[@connr8691]

My step brother just moved there. I'm so proud of him because he used to always get into fights, drugs, and smoking. But now he has his own home with a lucky lass.

[@methvenarundell3057]

The air is of a quality that will also do wonders for his and anyone's health.

[@Kalsino]

First thing first, it's really awesome vlog, and thanks for all the small bits of information you have provided with. We are to Scotland in August and we are drive the Highlands empty for places to see.

[@SiempreSydney]

Thank you! Enjoy - you're going to have a fabulous time. Scotland is a beautiful place!

[@jackiec9853]

The closest I got was Fort William, so thanks for making my (virtual) dream come true! Rocks & water, awesome beauty.

[@RosaLichtenstein01]

I was there in 2004 and 2005. We walked all the way along the coast from Elgol into Loch Coruisk (not Loch Corsig!). Thanks for posting; your video reminded me of this enchanting island's wonderful beauty. We had much better weather than you appear to have had. :-)

[@SiempreSydney]

That sounds like an amazing trip & it sounds like you lucked out with the weather! Glad that it brought you back, thanks so much for watching!

[@nolanerunner1]

Great ...thanks Heading to scotland next year in summer Good to see a bit of it before we actually go! Gonna stay in Portree for three days so this was helpful The beauty just made me ache Can't wait! Won't visit any breweries etc so will have more time for nature👏

[@SiempreSydney]

Yay! Have so much fun - Portree was super fun, don't miss out on Cafe Arriba! Great place to base yourself to explore!! Very excited for you :) If you head to siempresydney.com/category/travel/scotland/ you can see all my Scotland videos/blogs. Also make sure to book in a trip with Misty Isle Boat Trips - it was a definite highlight !! xx thanks for watching!

[@SiempreSydney]

Brenna Pelletier haha well I'm so happy that it's sufficing watching it on KZbin for now! But definitely try to come see it for yourself - videos don't quite do it justice :) Yep! Tourist season is July & August from my understanding. Those roads are so tiny & I just can't quite imagine what they'd be like jam packed with cars & big buses!!

[@kaimaberley513]

I'm 14 and have lived on skye my whole life cause my family is from here and I do think it has beautiful views. The only thing is there is nothing to do for us kids and teens 😕

[@SiempreSydney]

Hey Kai! Yeah I definitely know what you mean. I grew up in a pretty rural area as well - maybe try pretending you're a tourist in your own home? Go out & hike, see the sites! Maybe plan a few camping/backpacking trips with friends? Or if you love video - start making videos about the place you live in, it will definitely make it seem a bit more exciting. Thanks so much for watching & for the comment. Try to enjoy skye

[@kiltedkiller8178]

Kai Maberley can relate Kai, I come from across the water, Isle of Harris but both parts we live in are absolutely stunning ❤️

[@gamingtutor4575]

I live in central Scotland, and although there is much to do, I would trade it in a heartbeat to stay in a location as beautiful as Skye. Your younger years you might be a bit gutted that you don't have as much to do. But the older you get the more you will appreciate staying in such a lovely area. When you're young you want to party, go to clubs, and live the nightlife. But that will go away, and eventually, you will want that solitude back. I live in Scotland and haven't done half the things in this video lol. The rat race keeps us away from nature and its beauty. Keep your chin up pal, you have your whole life to experience whatever you want.

[@marekdzurak1867]

buy camera or use your mobile and enjoy avery moment ...man that nature eround can inspire in to anything ...i mean anything

If ever I move from Moxley, it will be to Skye.

[@SiempreSydney]

It's such a stunning spot :) Would be a good choice!

[@apobandicoot1]

Rha Falls...good for a swim! Lealt falls...best one is the last step of the waterfall, but you have to go down a steep walkway...aslo good for a nice shower. Jann`s cakes...the best on the isle in my opinion...there´s so much more on Skye..not only the usual suspects ;-)

[@SiempreSydney]

Hey Sven! Thanks for watching & for your note :) So many amazing swimming spots on Isle of Skye - I'm bummed, I don't think that we made it to the very bottom of Lealt falls. Dalton still dreams about Jann's cakes - SO good. I was definitely bummed that a few of the cafes I really wanted to visit weren't open yet (as we were a bit ahead of tourist season). Another reason to go back I guess! xx

Im going to Elgol for a 6 week geological mapping dissertation on Friday, although as I am only a university student I do not have access to a car for the duration. Do you happen to remember how good the shop at Elgol was for basic food items to avoid the 10km trek to Broadford? I realise this is an obscure detail so no worries if you cant remember! : )

[@SiempreSydney]

Hey Andrew! How cool - that sounds awesome :) From what we saw, I don't think that it would be very substantial. The shop we went into seemed to have more chocolates, rugs, etc. I don't remember there being much grocery, etc. However they may be another shop in Elgol that we didn't visit! Best of luck with you journey! xx

Neist lighthouse is now operated remotely from elsewhere. The former keepers' cottages are in private ownership. It's a shame they're not being put to better use.

hello , could you share when you travelled this place ? any idea how the weather will be in November ?

Hi Jakub! I have an Olympus OMD EM10. amzn.to/2owBg6w It's a great, versatile mirrorless camera!

[@SiempreSydney]

+Becky Rae I'm so excited for you! You should be totally fine on every hike we did, except Old Man of Storr. It wasn't crazy hard, but definitely the most strenuous/steep of the bunch. The Quiraing is pretty flat & easy and really one where you can turn around wherever. Misty Isle Boat Trips would definitely be worth it too because you can get of the heart of the Black Cuillins & then the walk to loch was not bad at all. Hope you have a blast!!

It's not super close to any major airports - Glasgow is probably the closest. But if you rent a car you can get out there in a few hours! And I'm sure there are tent campgrounds and wild camping is currently an option in Scotland too - so YES!

can't beat rural Scotland

[@SiempreSydney]

Agreed - it's gorgeous!

I live in Uig at Lon Ruadh! I live in a 20-year-old bed and breakfast and it used to be a giant hill. :) also, I'm a little sad that you said " lock " instead of " loch " so many people pronounce it wrong if they aren't Scottish 😂 Ohhh you pronounced " Gaelic " right! My Canadian teacher pronounces it " Gaylic " 😂

[@SiempreSydney]

Ahhh! Sounds like an amazing place to live. Yes the 'ch' Scottish sound is a difficult one to master! Still working on it ;) I was super surprised when I learned the difference between 'gaelic' pronunciations - now the other way sounds wrong to my ears!
