Hi from Spain. We are planning visit next July. Iwould like to know how many days you recommend to visit Isle of Skye and if you sleep always in the same place. Very nice your airbn. Thanks for your answer
Hi Pedro,
I think 4 days is enough time to see the main sights, but it’s worth staying longer so you don’t have to rush and to really have the time to enjoy it.
Plockton is also worth a visit and not far away from Skye, check out video on Plockton to see what’s on offer there.
Enjoy your trip, you’ll love it!
@@MemorySeekers Your comments are Very much appreciated. Many thanks
We love your videos. Thank you! We tried the link for your ABNB in Stein but it does not appear to work. Can you please share? Thank you!
abnb.me/shnVkSaBWHb this is the link but it’s not working for me either so likely it’s not on Airbnb anymore or they are currently not taking bookings. 🥲
Isle of Skye is Gods country , One of the most beautiful places on this planet .
AYE..it's Bonny!
Obviously you haven’t seen the rest of our Highlands and Islands 😂
Isn't it fascination some do the hard work for making steps, not just here but all over the world in wild beautiful scenery for the other people to see and enjoy! Fantastic.
Good grief what a stunning place. Thank you so much.
I cannot get over Skye having Palm Trees!!
Beautiful video! This is not a trip that I could make, so thank you for letting me “see” Skye through your film. Others who will visit will surely appreciate the details you’ve provided.
So glad we could show you our view of Skye 😊 it was incredible.
Y.carnt.u.go.too.skye
That glassy sea is like a mirror in the morning light, gorgeous.
Incredible. I actually gasped.
I first saw the "Isle of Sky" by visiting Dr. Iian McGilchrist home, with his books and lectures and a few other documentaries.
Thank you for yours. The "Isle of Sky" and those who were born there and that are fortunate live and work there are blessed indeed.
Another wonderful Scottish adventure. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching Marsha 👍😊
WOW Amazing. Thank you so much for taking us along.
Welcome!
This is my favorite segment: Salmon Smokehouse Tour, and the studio scenery!
--- well done!
The Quiraing is what my partner and I call "An instant gratification hike". Stunning from the first steps.
So true!
Such a beautiful isle, full of magic and wonder. It's like a entire different world. Thanks for sharing this.
Our family stayed at an AirBnB near Snizort. This was a truly beautiful location. I have been to Scotland many times but this was the first time on Skye, but won’t be my last. I can still hear my wife screaming on some of the roads.😂
I can't even find words ‼️yet again another stunningly beautiful place 💞truly breathtaking... I can't thank you enough for sharing this 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏and always taking us along. Be safe look after yourselves till next time 🍾🥂🙏
😄👍 thanks Tiffany we loved Skye, incredible place.
I never realised just how wonderful it is there, and your vlog is so much more interesting than what is seen on TV, so big thanks.
We didn't until we actually went there. Wonderful place. Thank you for your kind words.
WOW! My favorite Scottish Highlands video yet, simply fantastic!
You do travel video-making just right... the right amount of commentary, the right amount of content, etc. Thank you!
Hi Donna, thanks very much. So glad you like the series and enjoy our style of filming. 😊
Also thank you so much for the support donation going towards upgrading equipment. Really appreciate the kind support for our channel. 🤗😊❤️
Wow! How incredibly beautiful! I love the sound of running water. Something about it just soothes my soul! ❤️
Indeed you cannot beat the sound of the water when out walking in nature.
Well you'll get plenty of running water it never stops bloody raining
This video was breathtaking!! Loved every minute of it.
Thank you Rebecca 😊
I can’t wait to visit Skye. Glencoe was beautiful too. It’s a trip of a lifetime.
Was für eine grandiose Landschaft 🙏Man kann sich einfach nicht satt sehen an Hügeln, Wasser, Berge, mal flach mal erhaben , mal steil, Schottland 🏴 ist eben einzigartig. Euer Zimmer in Stein mit dieser spektakulären Aussicht... unglaublich schön, da kann man stundenlang am Fenster sitzen und entdeckt doch immer wieder etwas neues. Bei dem Räucherlachs lief mir das Wasser im Mund zusammen😂 Danke für diese wunderschöne Reise, ihr werdet sicher noch lange an diese vielen Eindrücke zurückdenken und erst einmal alles verarbeiten. Freue mich schon auf euer nächstes Video🙋♀️🇩🇪🥰
Hallo, freut mich, dass es dir gefallen hat. Das Airbnb war unglaublich, liebte unsere Aussicht und vermisse sie! Der Lachs war unglaublich, wir sollten es versuchen, wenn Sie die Chance haben.
It's incredible your hiking showing us surreal landscapes. I stayed all the time smiling with so such gorgeous places. Scotland is breathtaking, oh my God how I would like to be there.🤩
It was an incredible place to visit. Glad you liked it.
Just lovely! Wild and wide open views to die for; a vicarious vacation for me on this hot, windy day. And kudos to you Simon, for making it to the top of the "Old Man". Every place you chose to feature is excellent. Another cup of tea and on to Part 2!
Such harsh but beautiful landscape. You guy's are so lucky to have such places to visit. If we ever get back to the UK we will have plenty to see. Thanks for sharing. Cheers Ron
Thanks Ron it is a gorgeous part of the country and we sure are lucky to have it. Hope you make it over one day to visit.
the dark grey/black of the rocks and the intense green of the grass, is a perfect combination of colours. and in the veins of that territory it flow a very clear and clean blood ( water). poetic and spiritual place
What wonderful filming and the food alone “perfect”. British Columbia is as rugged but has a lot more trees (giggle). We have cliff jumpers and beautiful water falls. Loved how the goat waited to make sure you stopped before proceeding! Look forward to Part 2, thank you so much.
Hi Lila, love BC been a few times around Vancouver and the Rockies. The nature and scenery is comparable to Scotland for sure. The goat was in fact a sheep and yes it did take its time to let us move on! 🤣 thanks for watching!
This channel deserves a million subs at the very least! Such quality and informative content ❤
Thank you that is kind, maybe one day we will, quite happy with what we have achieved in just over 2 years of the channel. I guess the more videos you can make the more exposure you have. 😃❤
I enjoyed this episode the best of all so far and I have to agree with all the positive comments offered by others. The Isle of Skye is simply stunning. We are of an age when tackling the rigours of the climbing and long walks are long over so to be part of your adventure was thrilling for us. Your commentary and photography were, as usual, very well done and comprehensive. Couldn't ask for better. Cant wait to see your next posting. xx
Thank you so much for the lovely words. Really nice to hear 😊 it’s a gorgeous place to visit and yearn to go back already!
Ditto !
Just stumbled upon this video and enjoyed it greatly. Always nice to sit in easy chair and let you do the struggle up the mountain ! Thank you for sharing your adventures with sofa sitters like me !
Glad you enjoyed it, there is a whole
Series on Scotland you can watch from your armchair. Thanks for watching.
You guys did well with your accommodations on Skye, Scotland at it's best and no one should ask why, I have been many a time and each time I cry!
In one word: FASCINATING
Glad you liked it.
Sky is a beautiful Isle I have been a couple of times and love it!❤
Would go back in a heartbeat
Thank you for your wonderful videos. I have enjoyed and love learning Scotland heritage as well as fantastic sceneries. God bless you and may God protect you always.
Thank you for the comment so glad you liked it.
Currently planning a trip to Scotland and was in search of inspiration and guidance. Struck gold with your amazing videos! Thank you
Ahh fantastic! hope we have given you some good ideas. We have 8 videos on the highlands so fill your boots! Any questions feel free to ask we will try and help😊 When are you going? Our trip was June 21.
@@MemorySeekers I've watched all the videos and have really loved them. Thank you so much for the effort and care you put in. So many great ideas. We are planning a month long trip either end of May or September next year depending. We live in Australia so it's a decent journey. Considering eloping whilst there.
@@wickabug13 😂 How wonderful a whole month is a good amount of time. We covered all we showed in 9 days so you should be able to cover a lot more with your timeline. Enjoy!
@@MemorySeekers Thank you 😊
We are planning a trip to the Highlands in April, these videos are super helpful!
Oh how exciting, so glad we could help with some ideas on what to see and do! Have fun.
Loved your documentaries about Skye. Very professionally produced and extremely informative. I very much enjoyed them. 👍👍
Thanks so much!
🔥Good Trip, nice small details, thanks. We absolutely enjoyed our trip to the Skye, it's our Scotland favourite.
I love your vlogs! So glad I found them
Thank you, glad to have you with us!
Oh wow, only one word for the Isle of Skye: STUNNING! ☀️🏔Thank you so much for this breathtaking video, and for the excellent filming and editing! A real joy to watch, and your salmon meal looked absolutely fabulous! Many thanks from Atlanta, GA. 🙏🏼✨
Glad you enjoyed it!
I want to go. So beautiful and well done, superior travel video and great film.
Thank you, hope you do get to go 😊
Just beautiful!! Thank you for sharing your trip.
You are welcome!
Hello 👋 how are you doing?
I just got back from here myself & I already miss it so much. There is so much to see there & I have to go back soon. Thanks for sharing your experience!
Hope you had a good time.
Stunning landscape! Thank you!
It sure is stunning.
Hello, where are you from?
Wow! I think you’ve out done yourselves. You presented some of the most spectacular scenery I’ve ever seen so beautifully. I can’t wait for the following videos.
Lovely to hear how much you enjoyed it. ☺️
Absolutely stunning.
So beautiful it makes my heart ache! And that smoked salmon...holy cow, I’d kill to have some lol. Thank you, I really, really enjoyed this video and can’t wait for more! 😍👍
John’s Salmon is incredible, tastes amazingly helped by the lovely setting. 😊
Love your channel, it's everything I've been looking for but haven't found on you tube. I only found you today and already I've visited Bakewell, Chatsworth and I'm now in Skye. Looking forward to more. Thanks from Australia 🇦🇺
Hello thank you for the lovely comment. So pleased you found us. Lots to catch up on!
fascinating video and yes definitely your best as others have said . I look forward to Part 2
Thanks Maureen it certainly was a great one to make.
Hello friend good morning
Greatting from Macau china
Thanks for great sharing
Look amazing and beautiful place and yummy food
Full watched here'friend
Thank you for watching, glad you enjoyed it.
A lovely and well filmed visit to Isle of Skye-such beautiful rugged scenery.Visited many times over the years and always in awe of the scenery and history looking forward to your final posting. Well done and thank you.
Thanks Julia so pleased you have experienced it and enjoyed our take on this wonderful part of Scotland.
Simply beautiful! It feels like you go back in time.
You’re right - Skye is glorious! Make sure to keep an eye out for our part 2 video on Saturday….the beauty gets even more spectacular!
Wow, how stunning! Thank you for making the difficult hike so we can see the beauty from afar. Cheers from Michigan USA.
Skye looks like a walker's paradise. Thanks for sharing.
Certainly are beautiful parts to walk.
Nothing like a beautiful Scotland 👌🏼
A superb video of Skye and taking in the most attractive locations and places to visit on the island, it is truly a stunning area to visit. Your accommodation in Stein looked fantastic (with gorgeous views) and the fully stocked fridge is something I've never seen before, together with a decent bottle of single malt whiskey, one of the best self catering premises anywhere....
Hi David, glad you enjoyed the tour. Indeed our hosts were very generous, the quality of the food and drink they provided was amazing.
The Isle of Skye is a wonderful place. I really love your videos. 👏❤
Thank you so much!
We went in a motorhome and spend the night at Kiltrock, it was October and waterfall was definitely there! It was incredible to wake up to this stunning scenery 😀
How lovely to be there early morning with the waterfall roaring! We were quite disappointed it was not flowing when we visited.
Absolutely gorgeous. Going there is on my bucket list. It would be lovely.
It really is!
What a beautiful place!!!!❤❤❤❤
I’m sure it looks absolutely beautiful on a clear night including lovely views of the moon et cetera.
I visited Skye in late October 2017, your experience seems to be much milder in weather. 😄 The entire Isle is enchanting but I’d say visiting the Fairy Pools felt extra magical. Here in the USA, salmon for breakfast isn’t common, so it was a happy surprise to find it often as a breakfast option. I’ve enjoyed watching this and reliving memories. Thank you for posting! Your videography and narrative are good quality and I look forward to more content! Best regards!
Hello which city do you live in the United States?
My wife and I just discovered your channel and are really enjoying it. Quality presenting, camerawork, sound and editing!
Welcome aboard! thanks for watching and glad to have you with us. 😄
Wow! Thank you for taking us along on your hike, it was incredibly beautiful!
Our pleasure!
Thank you! Stunning views! I absolutely loved it! I definetely will have a heavy breathing, because I'm also out of shape, but could not miss the opportunity to see all that beauty. Can't wait to see what coming next!😁🖐
It was a very hard walk for me but worth it! Glad you liked it. 😊
Much much much better than I expected! Absolutely beautiful and stunning landscape of Skye! Well done indeed again! Looking forward to seeing the next installment of this particular series! Thank you again for yet another brilliant video!
Thanks Cassandra just one more episode to go. It’s been great fun making and sharing our travels in Scotland. So much more to see, so will have to plan another trip.
Thank you guys. Thoroughly enjoyed watching it all and have subscribed.
Welcome aboard!
I think this has to be my favourite episode to date (I also enjoyed your Isle of Man one). I would love to go to Skye one day. It looks fantastic and I look forward to your next upload :)
Thanks Clare glad you liked it. I think the scenery really helps make it a special video, it's a fav of ours too! 😀
Ce priveliști, frumoase!!
Great video!! Thank you so much!! Wonderful places... 👏👏👏👏
Thank you for watching 😊
STUNNING! lovely series I just found!
Thank you for watching 😊
That was absolutely jaw-dropping gorgeous! Thank you so much for taking us along. Your video made me very happy! From Northern California💜🤟🏻🍀😎🇺🇸
So glad you liked it and it made you happy, our job is done! ☺
@@MemorySeekers oh you did more than well! I have Scottish heritage I think it’s around in that area. So it was so fun to see. Thank you thank you thank you!🤗☺️
Superbe vidéo, et fascinante île de Skye ! Merci infiniment pour le partage.
Amazing beauty 😍 I suppose at some stage you have to accept you just won't see it all however someone will get to enjoy Skye
Breath-taking episode! We have visited the Isle of Sky 3 years ago. Unfortunately hiking up the cliffs is far behind us so thank you for sharing those fantastic views from above. The quality of your filming is of the highest degree as usual. I felt as if I was standing on a top of the mountain.
Hello Ludmila, thank you for your kind words, it is great to hear you like our style of video and enjoyed walking up the mountain with us. I wish I could have watched rather than walked it! Hard going but worth it in the end. 😄
Yes I live here
Brilliant, loved the choice of background music looking forward to part 2🐨🦘🐨🦘😷
Thanks Jeanette glad you liked it.
Wow! Amazing! Awesome! Fantastic! Beautiful!
Words just don't do this video justice!
First hand must have been Brilliant!
Thanks you guys because you really conveyed every moment Wonderfully!
Thank You! We loved it and lived it with you two!
Thank you so much 😀
Thank you 👍😀
Another great video of an almost other worldly place. Thanks for doing all that walking and climbing so we don't have to. 😊
Thanks for watching, the hikes were tough but rewarding to see the views.
The Isle of Skye is a treasure trove of natural beauty, cultural heritage, and outdoor adventure, with something to offer every traveler. Whether you're exploring dramatic landscapes, delving into Skye's rich history, or simply soaking up the stunning scenery, Skye is sure to captivate and inspire visitors from around the world.
Thank you for another wonderful view of my homeland. Well done for your climb to The Old MAN. Did they tell you what we call that upright lunp of rock. Enough to make you blush ! I look forward to the next series as I am proud of the North of Skye. Mackinnon country.!
Thank you for watching, so glad you liked it. I wonder what it is called 😂
Thank you for the video, we will no doubt be returning sometime soon. We did the Old Man of Storr a couple of years ago. No official parking, just a very long, free, layby. The weather was awful wind and rain and we didn't get to see the Old Man until we were about 20ft away. Well worth the climb though. Its was quite tough, with lots of mud and lots of people.
Gosh sounds like we had it good when we did it. I found it really tough but rewarding to get to the top!
Stunning!! Thanks for adding for adding another location for my bucket list🙂
Our pleasure hope you tick it off the bucket list!
Sitting here in Virginia, USA wishing I were visiting Skye. 🧡💛💚 Thank you for the Mental Vacation.
Tricia, so glad you have enjoyed our tour and its been helpful 😀
Thank you for showing the dogs on the trail. Makes me feel better about bringing my dog there next month.
The Peak District is very dog friendly on the trails and in shops and pubs.
Cracking video, stunning scenery I look forward to see the next one
Thanks 👍
Great work, love the scenery and landscapes. ♥️
Thank you
Awesome trip. Thanks for taking me along.
You are welcome
Beautiful video! 😍 Thank you for all the wonderful content you upload!
Our pleasure!
Amazing video, nice clarity and Wonderful explanation and timely running commentary. I enjoyed well. Thank you.
Hi Guys, Just stumbled upon your vlogs. Beautiful filming, compositions, and information. Though I am a Scot from the beautiful City of Edinburgh I have lived in Northern Ireland for almost 50 years now. My daughter owns a marvellous B&B in Portree. Heading off with my pal this Wednesday to Oban area for touring and doing my landscape photography. When you have good visibility in Scotland you can receive and see some panoramic scenes. So, thank you for sharing your work
Allan, pop a link to the B&B in the chat so people can see if they want to stay! Have a great time in Oban hope the photography goes well. Thanks for watching.
Che meraviglia 🏞️ grazie mille ,molto coraggiosi a tuffarsi nelle acque delle fate🌷
This series has been so delightful! Hopefully we will be able to follow all of it in the spring if COVID allows us to come! Thank you for some great information!
Thank you so much for watching and enjoying our travels. It was amazing. So pleased to know that you plan to follow in our footsteps and yes we hope too that you can travel and visit in Spring. All the best.
Truly beautiful. I thank you so much for these beautiful vids. I am to old to go but it’s great to get to see. What a wonderful job you two have. Looking forward to seeing more. Blessings
Hi Joen, thanks for the lovely comment. We actually only do the videos in our spare weekends and holidays. We both have full time jobs, but hope that one day we can do it full time 😊 glad you are enjoying the series.
Thank you for sharing another wonderful video, showing us all the best viewing spots and all the long hikes...Oh, nearly forgot to mention all the good food as well... Lol
The food was delicious, especially on the Salmon tour. It was a great adventure doing some of the hikes, the ones we did were the more easy ones! I found them hard but so pleased was able to complete them. 😊
nicely put together video. thanks
Have recently discovered your travel videos of England and Scotland. We have thoroughly enjoyed them as they have covered a lot of the trip we did in 2019 - brought back lots of great memories. Your style of presentation is really good. Enough commentary and information and of course the wonderful photographic content. Keep up the great work and we look forward to other productions you will be able to make when we can all travel again :)
Ah that is so nice to hear Cathy, thank you for a lovely comment!
Absolutely beautiful
Thank you it really is lovely
Brilliant and interesting video and your voice is calming. I spent the day watching your videos.
Ah thank you very much, so glad you have enjoyed them. Lovely to hear 😊
Just joined your channel, love watching you exploring and eating as I just love Scotland. Look forward to watching past vids, thank you!
Welcome!
So happy you are enjoying our Scottish videos!
We hope you also enjoy our other films too.
Great to have you as a subscriber!
Everything is beautiful
