My father who died at the age of 94 said that he could live 3 lifetimes and never see all of Scotland. As someone who lives and travels all over Scotland for a living, I can tell you that you may be able to see most of the tourist hot spots that you may have heard of but that is only a tiny fraction of Scotland, which is on the main routes. Most of the most beautiful, secret and special places in Scotland, are not on those well known routes.

I'm retired now and glad to be back home in the land that calls you back, and the home you never forget. Alba gu Brath,

As a Scot, I love everywhere in your video, but so many people miss so many gems. Next time you're here, you need to visit Loch Lomond, the Trossachs, Argyll, the Oban area and Mull (try to visit Iona and Staffa while you're there, they're both magical). All these places are comfortably doable within a week, starting and finishing from Glasgow, which is a totally underrated city! I'm hoping to do the North Coast 500 up to the top of Scotland later this month, but all the places I've just mentioned are my favourites and these days are more off the beaten path.

In the highlands, Oban and glenfinnan are also a couple of personal favourites

I was last there in June of 2019. Had my entire trip planned for June 2020 but alas had to cancel. I am a photographer and artist and find Scotland incredibly beautiful and inspirational. It is not only the unrivaled, gorgeous landscapes, forests, nature, critters and the little villages everywhere but IT IS THE PEOPLE. They are amazingly kind, friendly and gracious - not to mention funny.This culture KNOWS its history and who they are as a people. Highly recommend.

Great video. I'm Scottish, but I moved to England about 17 years ago. Didn't do too much travelling around Scotland when I lived there. I lived in Glasgow, so didn't drive, just cycled everywhere, so the most I saw really was Loch Lomond and the Trossachs, with the occasional trip up to the Cairngorms. I have gone on quite a few European camping road trips now (last trip was France - Belgium - Luxembourg - Germany - Austria - Italy - Slovenia _ Croatia and back again via Italy - Switzerland and France). Due to Covid and added Brexit, we decided to do a modified NC500 last year, with added Orkney and Skye. Epic trip, at one point, whilst driving through Sutherland, I found myself almost in tears, there was just so much bueaty around us. Stand outs for me were Skara Brae on Orkney, Sheigra and Sandwood Bay, Handa Island, Althandu, Quiraing and stopping off at Loch Fyne Oysters on the way to Glasgow and eating ALL of the oysters. In the end it wasn't so much a 500 mile road trip, but a 2000 mile one. Going on our next road trip in just over two weeks time, Croatia again, but no idea yet on the route, only place I want to visit with any certainty is Rothenburg and maybe Lauterbrunnen on the return leg.

Seriously?! Whereabouts did you stay? It’s an amazingly diverse city with so many different ethnicities and cultures living together. We welcome anyone willing to get stuck in and make something of themselves the city is full of prous “refuweegees” lol. A bunch of free museums and galleries with world renowned pieces but really with the amazing architecture and it’s diversity is art in itself. So many green places! We’re called the dear wee place for a reason. On a good day (which granted we get rarely) a walk through any of the parks or even the city centre is an adventure in itself. Then we have the different areas and their different vibe. Park circus, dennistoun, shawlands, merchant city and the oh so cool finnieston strip. World renowned shopping (best U.K. shopping outside of London don’t ya know). And last but not least there’s the people! There’s no place like Glasgow and there’s no better folk than a weegie! The city slogan is people make Glasgow! Just my opinion and I’m biased as I come from here but I have lived all over the world and seen a lot of places and still love this city more than anywhere.

I've been to Edinburgh, Inverness, Loch Ness and Urqart Castle. Ben Nevis at Fort Williams is no easy hike, but you should try, how far you can go. A whisky-tour in the Spey Area in one of the hundreds destilleries is a must. And you should look out for highland games usually on weekends in the summer. It's alqays worth it. If you want to visit two or more castles look out for a membership in the national trust for one year, to save money.

If you are back here, id say that if you want to save some money on accommodation in Edinburgh considering staying in a town on the trainline between Edinburgh and Glasgow, or even in Glasgow. There are lots of trains which will take you straight to the city centres and its only one hour between the cities and could save a lot of money as city centre hotels are very dear during busy periods!!
