[@AngelaWill-s5y]

I’m trying to buy the guide but link doesn’t work do you have another please

[@ChrisSloanes]

@user-px4ly9zq3t head to www.sloanesmedia.com

[@Nedslevel]

Absolutely enjoyed that, perhaps my favourite of your videos,

[@jackiegrant3972]

Already roaring with laughter at the PLANNED stealth camp break in complete with appropriate thumbnail 😂😂

[@ChrisSloanes]

😂😂😂 there’s a few of them in the video haha

[@colinrattray816]

A great vlog about Arran surely one of the most underrated of the Scottish islands!

[@kayjaykay6285]

Brilliant video & great to see you reach 10K subscribers! Well deserved- nice to see an honest, truthful KZbinr succeeding without resorting to click bait & silly thumbnails. The piss take section of your video was "amazing"! 😂 Keep up the good work !

[@grahammarsh717]

Great video

[@ScottishVanTrips]

Ha brilliant vid mate, you forgot the police car and blue lights on the thumbnail 🤣 that peak design bag looks tidy, you like it?

[@ChrisSloanes]

Yeah it’s a handy size and surprisingly has a ton of space. I have their backpack, electrical bag and toiletry bag and all of them are grey quality and strangely unbelievably spacious

[@iNDI_VAN_A_JONES]

It's amazing how many people you meet along the youtube road isn't it. I met a couple in a lovely t25 yesterday the reconsider me. I'll never get used to that feeling when you get recognised

[@VR-Stories26]

Former resident here wondering why I left. I lived near Glen Rosa and Blackwaterfoot. Great to see bakery still going. You have made a great video, great camera presence and fun to watch. .I Ioved revisiting albeit on video. I am in West Cork now. I miss the quietness of Arran. I love places where the sky is alway in conversation with landscape. I don't like touristy.❤❤. Thank you for making me smiling and rekindling memories.

[@CampervanTravelsInDora]

Best video yet 🏆

[@Swifty.lover.13]

Eh Arran…. Probably the most busy & visited isle by the Scots, in Scotland. Also it’s probably the best hence why we all go there. Great vid pal👍

[@michaelmoran6861]

I holidayed in Arran a lot with my wife and kids. There can be a north / south divide with the weather with it being dry in Whiting Bay, while rainy north of Brodick. You should stop off in Whiting Bay which has a lovely long sandy beach, fantastic Glenashdale Falls walk, golf club in the hills, etc.

[@MrBusby]

Thanks both. Another funny & informative episode. Glad to see you back out on the road.

[@ChrisSloanes]

This was our first trip since May so it had been a while! Glad you enjoyed it

[@markpursglovephotography]

We were on Arran on the 15th for 4 days, staying at Lochranza campsite. Went up Glen Rosa, it was stunning. 🚐

[@TheRenemcc]

Cracking video mate! Doing the country proud 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@LeisureBit]

Arran is gorgeous, we’ve been a couple of times and always wished we had gone sooner. Goat fell on the list for next time! Great tip on the bakery will have to check that out. Cracking video ❤ All the very best, David & Rachel 👍

[@ChrisSloanes]

The bakery will blow your mind haha. Its beautiful. Goatfell is the best peak ive been on including all the ones we done in Norway just purely because of the 360 panoramic view that is absolutely incredible. You feel like your on top of the world.

[@GeordieAnarchy]

Just binge watched all your videos this week. Really enjoyed them. Hadn’t realised you were the guy appearing in Urban Arc Overland videos until the road trip video. Looked like great craic. Keep up the good content.

[@johnmull59]

Happy memories of walkng up Goat Fell some 20+ years ago. Stayed up at Lochranza which we really enjoyed. I think a lot of folk bypass some really stunning parts of Scotland in the rush to get to the NC500...their loss🤷

[@nightsinthewild]

Just found your channel. Mint video really enjoyed it 😊

[@Stchristopherofatlantis]

We can’t believe we haven’t seen you before. That pesky KZbin algorithm isn’t as smart as it thinks it is. We love your style, this video was really well put together. You deserve way more views and subscribers. Right, off to binge watch your videos 😊

[@wyrmie84]

Fantastic video... Great banter and great filming! Ive just ordered your guides.. Thanks alot you two I really enjoyed that!

[@ChrisSloanes]

Glad you enjoyed it. We had a good laugh making it so glad people like it too. Thanks for the support, appreciate it. There may be a full blown guide book in the works too 👀

[@Rebecca-89]

Another fab video! Keep them coming! ❤

[@carolspencer5844]

love the video guys!! think i will have to visit aran on my next scottich trip,,,,,,,,,wonder where id be able to buy a good guide for a trip like that, hmmmm. keep up the good work.

[@RoganFPS]

how do I do I check you're there or not though? Sloanesy tracker app incoming?

[@billmmckelvie5188]

Having taken a touring caravan to Scotland, stopping over at Culzean caravan site after travelling from England. The Isle of Arran, is Scotland in miniature. It is a great place to retreat to. Plus as you have discovered it can be persisting it down in England and it is cracking the flags in Scotland, yes 70 degrees F on a March Easter and the Sound of Jura was like a millpond. I was wishing that my Scottish father was still alive to experience it! The U.K. has over 900 islands, very few have been visited. With empty Carribean type beaches ⛱ and get the weather right the U.K. is like another country! Island life is totally different and can be really chilled.

[@nemoscamperadventures7563]

Well what I can say about this A funny, informative and honest KZbin Video with ( in my opinion ) great little pokes at todays kind of KZbin Videos. The Thumbnail ideas had us in stitches Loved the raw look of the video and the way it came across. This is one place that’s definitely going to be added to my list of adventures In the mean time, it’s Scotland for me in two weeks Great video guys look forward to the next one

[@CampervanTravelsInDora]

Absolutely comics in the making, laughing throughout, great stuff Chris and Dani 😂😂😂

[@On_the_vanwagon]

Gives a shout if you run out of water near Lochranza in the future. You can fill up at our place. Is the Loch you went to the one that is along the river that passes the lochranza distillery?

[@ChrisSloanes]

Thanks mate thats appreciated. I believe you can get to it that way but we went from the West Coast and up that way. But we did bump into a couple of people who were walking up there and had came from a different route to get there.

[@stevenmac08]

I sure we passed you a couple of days ago on the isle !! 😂 watch your vids before taken our van over.

[@jaikgladstone5833]

Great video, love Luigis!

[@raymondporter2094]

WE have been to Arran, from North Yorkshire. A lovely island. Did it advertise itself as "Scotland in Miniature"? The distillery at Lochranza....

[@ryanjackson289]

Hi Ryan's mam Sam commenting again... 😂 love this video i have lived here for over 30 years started coming here in the 1970 but because you live , work , raised a family its hard to see some of the beautiful places that loch at Glensannox i didn't even know it was there so stunning so thanks from this 😊👍

[@iwanderphotography]

really enjoyed that Chris and Dani

[@ChrisSloanes]

Thanks! Trying a new way of making videos, we enjoyed making this one so hopefully everyone enjoys watching it

[@iwanderphotography]

@@ChrisSloanes yes it was really good fun and you have Dani participating more lol, I really like how you do your animations, would love to find out how you do this.. trying to up my game swell... cheers from Bonnie Scotland

[@maxnewlander3639]

Great video as per… Maybe your best thanks to the genuine laugh out loud moment taking the piss out of clickbait van-lifers. So funny.

[@robrac123]

Hi Chris - us two oldens watched this and thought it was one of your best - informative and funny. My wife will also now be using washing up liquid to remove all curry stains!😂😂

[@philcorley4071]

Brilliant!

[@spartafishinguk]

Enjoyed that 👍 The new bag though…. 🥴 WOWSERS!! Name sit “Roy”. It’s a PUA Roy Cropper special that thing.

[@ChrisSloanes]

😂😂😂

[@paulhaddow5277]

great video, as usual!......could you tell me the model and size of the green osprey backpack you use?

[@ChrisSloanes]

Thanks! Its the Osprey Stratos 2 and its 36litre that one. Great bag.

[@paulcoggins6964]

Hi, is your package for the islands in Scotland £10 still available please, would you be able to send thd link. Love your videos, by the way 😊

[@MichaelYarde]

First of all, congrats on 10k subs! That green back-pack you use, any details? 👀 I'm looking for a new one for when I lead my DofE expeditions each year, and that looks perfect

[@ChrisSloanes]

Thanks mate appreciate it. It’s the Osprey Stratos II in 36 litre. It’s a great bag. I’ve got 3 of them all different sizes. Absolutely love it and had them all for around 4 year and never had an issue with a single one of them.

[@MichaelYarde]

@@ChrisSloanes Sounds like a great review to me. I'll have a look further. Thanks for taking the time to reply.

[@BarrytheSuperScot]

I think a lot of people visit the island actually. I even came across some Americans and Germans when climbing Goatfell in September. Probably one of the more popular Scottish islands to be honest. Anyway, great video! I like your style (different style from my Arran videos, I had no transport except for the bus)! This is the first video of yours I have come across.

[@thenoworriesnomad]

I will have to disagree with Dani by saying its NOT controversial to say the NC500 is not the best road trip to take... but each to their own👍👍

[@colinrattray816]

BTW, FYI, Luigi’s is only the best Pizzeria in Dundee!

[@iNDI_VAN_A_JONES]

I want to be the first to say congrats on 10k!

[@ChrisSloanes]

Thanks man. It’s been a long time coming. Pretty much stopped completely for about 3 month. Channel died but it seems to be picking up a bit again now

[@voyageadventurevans]

Great Video Chris (and Danni). Great video with a perfect mix of content. It's 5 years since we went to Scotland and I have been 5 months without a van. As soon as my van is finished I hope that to be my first big trip. You got me spitting out my coffee with the thumbnail pisstake....but you are 100%....so many KZbin channels go down the clickbait route or showing a bit of cleavage or bum cheek....I have been trying to edit out the arse crack shots in my videos....perhaps I should leave it in🤣🤣🤣🤣. Anyway....keep up the good work, and I have just bought your Scottish bundle...see if it helps us on our trip 😊. Now better get back to the workshop to finish that van instead of watching you guys in the office 😉.

[@janettetaylor8760]

Does that include ur petrol or diesel food water gas park ups etc etc etc

[@peterclark8763]

Brave man. Domestic in a small place. Nowhere to run

[@ChrisSloanes]

Worst case i can just leave her there though, the van is faster than she is 😂

[@gaureshbhogale11]

£10 is small. I plan trips myself so I can say, all those guides will save hassle and for the money I think it is worth it.

[@pipmcscot7078]

You taking the mic out of a fellow Crafter owner, maybe a self build owner who also likes Scotland but does false thmb nails and nicking pictures off google, shame on you 😂😂😂😂 Great video, cant wait for your guide book and the sticker to arrive👍👍

[@T4ontour]

One of your best vlogs mate! More Dani please sorry mate but she’s funnier than you 😂 you guys work great together on film she brings out more of you personally to. Keep up the good work 🙂

[@ChrisSloanes]

haha yeah we tried to make something a little more personal than our other stuff. Yeah shes funnier and prettier but i can edit videos and she cant so it equals out lol! Thanks mate

[@thebluelaird2185]

I clicked on the link its saying £22 not £10 😒

[@ChrisSloanes]

Not sure what you mean.

[@CHAGrady]

Ok ok, Scotsman here… Ten Scottish poons ??? TEN???!!! Aye ok then 😎👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@Carrera-gp9od]

Good video , however I can assure you LOADS of people go there . The ferries are mobbed in the summer !

[@pathfinder303]

Good video as usual Chris. You have lost of weight I see, not ill are yer ?

[@ChrisSloanes]

😂😂😂 I’ve lost about 3 stone since January mate. Nah I’m fine, or at least I think I am haha. Just been eating better and exercising really haha

[@ferropersona3112]

🌞🇹🇷🤙

[@sassyboofle6983]

Pretty much sounded and looked perfect . How do you realise or know where to dispose of and or fill up , is there an app or have you just become psychic . When on a discussion level about whose job it is next I throw out you having the next baby . Bar everything else pain wise no way . 😂😂

[@ChrisSloanes]

You can always look on Park4Night app. Theres usually pretty handy services located on there.

[@Davefacestation]

You don't need to stealth camp in Scotland 😂

[@jarrodwilliams5539]

Love the piss take of thumbnail bollocks that other 'vanlife' do......tbh i skip passed all those vids ....keep it up

[@urbanarkoverland]

You can eat

[@ChrisSloanes]

Hence how I got fat
