So fabulous ... I also fell in love with the Highlands on my first ever visit last April. I live in the Western Cape, South Africa, and nowhere else in the UK has made me feel so at home. My heart sang all the way from start to finish. Wonderful to revisit via your video. Have to return!!!

Best 2 videos on the NC500 I’ve seen so far, and I’ve watched a lot. All content is information. None of the “this is my van” “this my vegan breakfast lunch & dinner” “this is my pet 20 times” and you don’t have an annoying mrs with an excessive personality. Like a hell of a lot of other videos. Good work

I have watched both of your NC500 vlogs and enjoyed them both. Thanks for sharing. I was very impressed that you showed some of the interesting sights on the East leg of the tour. Most people just show Dunrobin Castle and the signpost at John-O-Groats and then pop up again at Durness - as if there is nothing to see in between. I honestly don't know why 90% of the tourists take the A9 if they don't think there is anything there to see. They could just take the A839 after Dornoch and then the A836 between Lairg and Tongue and cut out the entire East coast. And they would get the chance of being straffed by the RAF who use these glens for low level practice. But I suppose that route would have to be called the North West 300 wouldn't it.

Hi Robbie, Great video and thanks for sharing your trip and tips. NC500 is one of our bucket list! I’d like to know if we plan on doing this trip in late Nov, early Dec, would we be expecting snow of any sorts? I’,m asking as I’ve never driven in snow and would like to know if I’d need to take any extra precautions during the drive in snow. Thanks for responding in advanced!
@robbieroams
@robbieroams 2 года назад
There’s always a chance of getting snow at that time of year to be honest, as there is right the way through to April. Driving in the snow just requires more patience and for you to drive way more carefully in terms of speed and breaking. There’s also the issue of getting to steeper hills such as the Bealach Na Bass pass which would be tricky (sometimes it’s closed in bad snow).

Very very tough question! Pro’s and Con’s to both but either option is fantastic 👍 If given the choice I would actually combine the two - stay in a B&B maybe every 2 or 3 nights and stay in the motorhome the rest of the time.

When u said about 70mph wind gusts, this winter we had 141mph wind gusts, more than double, and no that want even a record gust up hear, I live in inverness and it just nice that I can do nc500 from my home. But u should do the nc500 starting from west coast one time, u won't believe on how many views u miss by going the other way, it all looks completely different strangley enough

Oh and about that gimbal, would you say it’s suitable for a dslr or more suited to a smaller mirrorless camera ?? Thanks again.

@@robpullen it depends on your payload and lens setup / I’m pretty sure it can handle normal DSLR’s fine 👍

Hi love the video so what is the rule on the bealach na ba pass if a car is waiting do you let one through then you go ?

Hi Gary, no official rules just common sense really. There are plenty of passing places along the way to allow the traffic to flow.

@@robbieroams Cant wait to do the NC500 we have planned a route for 10 days in April this year. We have do a few trips in our van but always down south. This time we are staying in a hotel for the fist & last nights but the rest of the time we have booked sites up.

Thinking of doing this in February for my 40th. How far did you drive each day (Mileage and Time?)
@robbieroams
@robbieroams Год назад
It varies to be honest and of course depends how long you do it for. For example 5 days involves more driving each day Vs 7 days. On average I’d say 2 hours a day on the road.

Please could you tell me how I go about using a drone in Scotland? Myself and my husband are doing this in August and I’d love to buy a drone but I’m not sure of the laws around them.
@robbieroams
@robbieroams 2 года назад
Thanks for watching, if you’re from the UK you have to register yourself with the CAA as a drone pilot and do a basic online test. There are places you can’t fly in the summer months due to breeding of birds such as Puffins etc.
@karlwalmsley2378
@karlwalmsley2378 2 года назад
@@robbieroams thank you, that’s what I found when I googled it that you take a test to be a pilot and I thought surely that’s not right? But it seems it is. We are going at the beginning of August. Would you say it’s worth it? It just seems so nice seeing the Ariel views and being able to add music.
