Best time to visit depends on what you want to see and do. Very early summer can be really good. Maybe June. Lots of the plant and animal life will be at its best. Slightly quieter than peak summer. The Edinburgh Festivals take place in August and that tends to make Edinburgh unbearably busy if you want to actually enjoy it, so unless you really wan to see some festival shows then avoid Edinburgh in August. Hotel prices are also absolutely crazy in August. Other option would be to wait until September. Lots of places you can do by public transport. Rail route from Glasgow to Mallaig is rated as one of the most scenic in the world, and you can do the last part of the route on the Harry Potter steam train. Driving is better for exploring the country, but be ready for roads that are more narrow and more twisty than you're used to. I live in a small place on the banks of Loch Lomond and I've driven the route up from Glasgow to Eilean Donan castle loads of times. The road from Loch Lomond to Glen Coe is lovely and hugs the side of the loch for long stretches, but it's not a great road for driving on at peak times. The road through Glen Coe is one of the most scenic in Scotland. Its a trip you can do in a day, but there's the option of doing an overnight stay in Kyle of Lochalsh, before doing Eilean Donan the next day and then heading over the bridge to Skye. Edimburgh is worth a couple of days. Glasgow you can do in a single day. I'd give at least a day for the journey from Glasgow up the west coast and then 2 or 3 full days on Skye. You could do a day in Inverness and then head down towards Perth. Head east to Dundee for a night and see RRS Discovery (Captain Scott's Antarctic voyage ship) , and take a trip to Glamis Castle. Glamis is a fantastic visit and that then lets you up to head south on the east side of Scotland to finish off in Edinburgh again.

Come over in June to August but the midges will be a thing.... Winters are very wet but then any time of year can be, winters aren't normally all that cold but not ideal for tourism. late spring to early autumn ( fall ) would be good and might be a little bit busy with other tourists.

@@marvintpandroid2213 aye but often from Glencoe upwards the munros are covered in snow and its fantastic scenery. You're bang on about the midges though, I left another comment saying it depends where you are , close to water and wet long grass. Mind u I was at Loch Shiel in late August and never felt any, but when we stopped at Kingshouse on the way home I was eaten alive and covered in bites and that was only going from the car to the hotel,

I just spent 12 days in Scotland the first week of October. It was my first trip out of America and I did NOT want to come back home and I am already planning to go back. It was the most wonderful and magical experience I’ve ever had. Everything was so beautiful and everyone was so nice. The weather was….wet and while the temperature was around mid 40’s to mid 50’s if you dress nice and are walking ALOT like we were you will be comfortable if not get hot. I had a raincoat on most of the time and a scarf and would end up getting too hot. Our trip started in Edinburgh then took a train to Inverness and w got a car there. Then we drove down to Fort William and after a couple days there we headed to Isle of Skye for three days. Again, so much rain but it creates a certain vibe/mood and while the clouds and fog obstruct the view, that view is still stunning.

In the Highlands when the sun is shining you can be comfortable in a T-shirt from May to October but when it's raining you can freeze to death :-( When someone comes back from a holiday in Scotland looking brown you can never be sure if it's a tan or rust... I look forward to the video of Driving Miss Debbie :-)

Dear girls, in many places the 'grass' covers deep peat bogs where you can sink Upton the knees or more. It can be quite dangerous to leave paths. Scottish midges are quite small but attack in swarms any exposed skin. They drive you mad. They hang about near water, usually during summer into autumn. We don't measure distance in UK by time but by actual mileage as travel time can vary according to conditions. Prepare for weather to change at anytime. Even in summer one can experience four seasons in one day, but we do get plenty of good weather. Love you girls.

I am so glad you liked the paintings and thank you for your very kind words. Regarding the cold temperatures in the U.K., from visiting relatives from the colder parts of the US, or Canada who are used to 0 degrees f, the problem is the humidity, They feel colder at 30 f here than 0 at home. We have a wet cold, you, apparently, have a dry cold. Edit, btw, you got the pronunciation of Pevensey pretty close.

@@lizbignell7813 When Harry Potter is forgotten about it will still be the Glenfinnan Viaduct and the place where Bonnie Prince Charlie and his Highland Gathering begain his failed coup in 1745. And the 'Outlander' theme is a bastarized version of the original which attempted to portray a (romaticised) account of the Prince's escape to France aided by a Flora MacDonald, who was later forced to flee to the Americas wher she again picked the losing side during the American War of Independence. She again had to flee from the Carolinas to Nova Scotia. Much more behind those lyrics than the banal 'sing me a song' of Outlander, in my view.

Scotland can easily get up into the mid 70s and low 80s in the Summer. But it can also be around the 60s too.

As a Brit, with Scottish ancestry, I appreciate pronouncing the places correctly. Thank you.

Hi girls, another great video. As an englishman who has lived in Scotland for the last 55 years, I can understand the frustration of the pronunciation problems in the video you reviewed. A couple of standouts are Loch Lomond, pronounced Low-mond. I live close by and often hear this wrong pronunciation. Sligachan on Skye is pronounced Slee-a-chan (ch as in loch). Quiraing on Skye is pronounced Key-rang. Hope you both get to visit Scotland sometime, I'm sure it will exceed your expectations. The midges tend to die down later in the year, October often has good light but can be unpredictable weather-wise. Take care and keep the videos coming.

We drive up to the highlands from South-East England twice a year and we always go the last 2 weeks in March and the last 2 weeks in September and most of the time we have great weather (hiking in t-shirts). We normally stay in the Moray area which is on the East side and have never had issues with midges. The wettest holiday was when we stayed on the west coast. Last September we had a week of warm weather then the the last week it rained or snowed all week. Weather in the highlands is very unique and it can be snowing in one place and half hour down the road be brilliant sunshine due to all the mountains and valleys. What we normally do is decide on the day what we are going to do according to the weather in different areas. We love it so much we have plans to move up to the highlands permanently in the next few years.

I know when it snows up there, alot of the time people get snowed in and can't get out in winter, suit me fine. I absolutely love the remoteness of it all. Great video thanks Natasha and Debbie 💖😁

I grew up in NYC, but moved here to Glasgow in 1984. Best move I ever made. It never gets too hot or too cold. Rarely goes above 80F and winters are mild, although a little wet! Because Scotland is quite small compared to the U.S.A., nowhere is too far to drive to. In half an hour, you can be in the mountains or by the sea. There are numerous ferries leaving regularly to the islands if you fancy a day out, or you just hit the road, turn up some small road you've never been along before and see where it leads!! There is beautiful scenery around every corner and over every hill. When the mists are floating between the hills and there is a light drizzle in the air, I've driven through some stunning hills and lochs expecting to see the Lady of the Lake offering Excalibur to the king of all the lands. I've driven down that same road in the blazing sunshine and you would hardly recognize it. Either way, just stunning!! Driving on the other side of the road isn't as awkward as you might think. Just make sure to order an automatic car, because if you don't, you'll end up with a stick shift, which is the norm here. The native population are generally very cool, indeed. I love it here and would/will never leave. Sure, I miss the bagels and pizza from New York, but worth it!! You'll love it here too. 😎💜

The small Islands around the fop of Scotland are beautiful as wall I spent time in Shetland and it's wonderful people

September is a good time to visit, it gets a bit more quiet with the bairns going back to school. East coast, especially in the Highlands gets overlooked over the west coast but has got so much to see. Inverness, the Black Isle, Dornoch, Golspie with the lovely Dunrobin castle.. the list goes on. Hope you'll make it for a visit x

Despite living in Glasgow, I'm not a city boy. But, less than an hour's drive, puts me on the shores of Loch Lomond. Three hours on a train gets me to Oban or Inverness... So it's not so bad.

I highly recommend the Outer hebrides, take a ferry from Skye over to the Isle of Harris, its absolutely beautiful. Incredible beaches with mountainous back drops.

We are so lucky living where we do in Durham. Can get to the Northumberland National Park, Lake District, Yorkshire Dales, Yorkshire Moors, Durham Dales all within an hour and Edinburgh not much further. This year we did route 500 around the North Coast of Scotland, as well as the capital and most of the lochs. Last year did all around Fort William and Skye. Know all of Scotland so well - it is so beautiful especially the highlands.

Scotland's landscape is waaaaay more ancient than say the Alps or the Himalayas, forged from early Planet volcanic activity. What remains today is just the stumps of the mountains that where once much larger. Add the ice age erosion, deforestation and you end up with the brooding magnificent eerie landscape that should be treated with care when hiking (even in high Summer).

We have various types of grass. Some kinds are good at surviving in harsh terrain and tend to have quite sharp blades, and some grass is very fine and soft. These types are usually used on lawns in our gardens. A great place to visit is Kew gardens. Love this guys drone shots. Look it up girls. ✌️♥️🇬🇧

Visit in June July August, visit many of the places in the video, Learn about Glencoe history. Glencoe was in the video but I don’t think he knew he traveled through it. Edinburgh is a must. Visit Inveraray, Fort William which is near the viaduct in the video you watched. Loch Lomond just north of Glasgow and the start of the highlands.

Its a pleasure seeing people appreciating my homeland. I dont think Ive ever heard any guy butcher the pronunciation of places more than the guy who made the video you're reacting to.

You did a fantastic job with pronouncing Edinburgh and Glasgow. I'll try to answer some of your questions. The population of Scotland is about 5 to 5.5 million with most people living around the central belt. To give some context, there are 56 million in England with 9 million in London alone. I'm sure there must be videos on the Highland clearances that can help explain why the Highlands are so empty. Midges are really tiny biting flies that tend to hang out in gangs of thousands. Bring a variety of repellents as different areas have different species and what works in one place might not work in others. It's personal preference but living here, I'd say May or September are the best months. These months are often sunny, if not as warm as high summer. The key tourist areas are way quieter though and the midges are not a problem, especially in September. Yes, grass is soft. I really hope you get your wish and come to visit some day. The weather might not be warm but the welcome will be.

Natasha you are not the only American who has commented on how lovely the grass is.

But probably the ONLY one who REALLY wants to pet it!! 😉

Britain's as a whole is beautiful from Snowdonia in Wales to the Lake District and up north in the Highlands. We're a lucky bunch. Hope you're all having a beautiful Sunday.

You're so kind!

Again, the North-east of Scotland around Aberdeen has been left out. Aberdeen itself doesn't have a huge amount but Aberdeenshire is beautiful and is full of castles including Balmoral and Dunnottar in Stonehaven. Also, if you are visiting Edinburgh, visit outside the city, especially East Lothian which has plenty to visit. Also, the northern isles (Orkney and Shetland) get forgotten about and have a huge amount of history and places to visit. As for the midges, they are not so bad on the eastern side as they are on the western side. This is because the eastern side of Scotland is a lot drier but also colder then the western side of Scotland, but also why Wales has midges because In general the west of the UK and wetter than the east. Also Aberdeenshire has a lot of fishing towns and villages including Peterhead which is the biggest fishing port in the UK and handles about 80% of the fish that ends being exported to Europe. Keep up with the lovely videos ladies and keep learning 😀

Veronique Wolff ......Dundee is the sunniest city in Scotland :)

Rainfall is lowest in the Highlands of Scotland in May. May and September might be the best time to visit the country. In June it doesn't get dark until 11 pm. Come and visit Scotland! Go to the islands of COLL and TIREE in the Inner Hebrides. I've been all over the world and those are two of the most beautiful islands I've ever seen.

Scotland is just beautiful

Natasha, from here in Bonnie Scotland,, thank you for your corrections, saved us in these comments😆 I have a painting of that little stone bridge on Skye on my bedroom wall that my Gran painted. If you really want to know about the random sheep and the empty Highlands, have a look in to something known as the Highland Clearances. It should be an eye opener. ❤🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿❤

Eilean Donan castle has been on that small island for century’s but the building you see in the video was built in the 1920’s and the bridge was added at the same time, it looks stunning all the same

june july august are the warmest id say ...def loads of midges esp near water take bug spray cittronella candles and mossie net lol first time we went wild camping there got bit to death lol water is very cold even in summer but stunning scenery x

I just watched a cool video about visiting Scotland. It is a video by Expoza Travel and is one of the best I have seen showing many places of interest. It is almost an hour long and may be too long for a reaction but I highly recommend a viewing. I love that you have taken such an interest to our beautiful country. Please keep up the wonderful reviews.

We go often to northern Scotland in April/May, with last year being 7 days of sunny warm weather all day every day. But you really never know. The drive from Glasgow, through Glencoe to Fort William then onto Skye is jaw dropping.

Glad you enjoyed the video lassies. There are so many recommendations I could make. I'll give you two places to look at since you'll be receiving many. Check out Luskentyre beach and also Fingal's Cave. Spectacular. As for when to come, truly is hit and miss with our weather so I couldn't possibly say. Be well one and all, cheers 🍻❤

As a very proud Scot, don't miss the east coast and north-east Scotland. Castle Country, Royal Deeside and the Moray coast is beautiful, too.

Wow Mark they are incredible 👏

Love your Videos - When my Wife and I got Married on Isle of Skye we stopped at the Sligachan Bridge to take some photos. It was pouring with rain and blowing a gale. Loved It!!

Though the 2 major cities (Glasgow & Edinburgh), the Highlands and the western part of Scotland has always been a tourist fave, please give the east coast side of Scotland a visit. You'll find some gems along the way. From Queensferry Crossings to St.Andrews, then Dundee, Aberdeen to Elgin. There is a coastal walk route with breathtaking views. It is less touristy and it's a more intimate view of Scotland.

A lot of people question why the brits had such a lasting impact around the world for such a small nation, but imagine waking up each morning and seeing the natural beauty you've been discovering in your video's and try not to be inspired by that, is it any wonder some of the greatest music, poetry, literary works and art have come from these green and pleasant lands

The summer is lovely but my favourite is winter the northern lights are amazing

It rains a lot here in Scotland but one way to look at it is, yesterday's rain is tomorrows whisky. I live on Royal Deeside, you should check out the Highland games videos from my area ( Ballatar, Aboyne, Braemar)
