Isle Of Skye Travel Blogs

As I said, I came here for 6 months thinking that I could also find some time to go around Europe a little during that time.  I thought I would come to the UK to work which would help me earn some money to travel a bit further 'cause let's face it: it is not quite affordable to travel properly…

DAY 1:We got up early and left our hostel to take our week long luggage on a 3 day tour lol... The tour van left from the Rabbis tours shop on the Royal Mile which is pretty much where our hostel was situated so it was nice walking distance... but OH SO FREEZING COLD!! Got a hot drink from Sta…

This morning Matt left early for his bus back to Glasgow. I was asleep and missed him so didn't get to say goodbye. It was great to have met him and except for one small whiplash incident, he did a great job driving us around Scotland! When Anna and I had gotten up we went for a walk around the tow…

Edinburgh meet up…then a road trip to Inverness and the Isle of Skye with two aussies girls and 1 english girl – Hannah-lou, Anna_B_82 (Shes from New Zealand really) and matthew1982 (who is actually male and not an English girl…although after the Ghost Tour I have my suspicions! Haha Sorry mate!)

Decided to take my friend from London of a tour of Scotland since she's never been. She is originally from Czech Rep so when she saw Scotland she fell in love stating it was just like home :) So.......I picked her up from Glasgow airport and instead of showing her Glasgow first I decided to get un…

Why is it called the Isle of Skye, you ask?  Well, I don't know...I suppose I should look it up!  Our day three was devoted solely to this island, and all the wonders, magic and mystery surrounding it.  Our gracious bus driver took us around the island in a clockwise fashion, and we …

THURSDAY: DAY 21:  We were wakened early by the hard rain pounding on our "sunroof". We had breakfast at 8:30 and got on the A87 & it was still rainy, foggy but warmer. We saw a big Waterfall and Rainbow on LOCH AINART. We got petrol for 36 pounds then got on the A863 to go to DUNVEGAN CAS…

A delightful road trip through the land of kilts, haggis, bad weather, golf, whiskey and unsubstantiated lake monsters.... Travelled in a circle up the east coast, across to the north west and down the west coast before returning through the middle. A wonderful country with some terrific scenery. Weird people with funny accents, and as long as you only want to eat fish & chips you'll be fine!

Day two of the tour, along with a refreshing and necessary change of tour guide.  Our previous one, to the happiness of all, was remanded to driving duty for the day. Visited Elean Donan Castle.  The castle was destroyed in a battle a while back but eventually restored thanks to the mone…

Today was the day that Mum decided it would be a good idea to drive right across Scotland (well she made the decision a while ago, and I have been complaining that her travel planning skills need tweaking - just because the UK is smaller than Australia doesn't mean you can get everywhere in an hour…

A last minute decision to make a venture over to Scotland on my own. I met some wonderful people along the way and made life changing memories.

My 3 week trip to some amazing places in the UK. I did a lot of hiking especially in the English Lake District and Isle of Skye in Scotland.

These are some of my faviorite pics from our 31 day trip to Scotland from April - May 2005. If you want a break down of what we saw check out Euphemy's blog she summarized the whole trip.

Just a easy trip with some friends from Manchester to Scotland. We didn't plan anything. Just follow the nice weather and enjoy the nice nature.
