About this video

eyy check it out I made a video..

This video is the story of a trip from the Isle of Wight to the Isle of Skye without a car and without flying. Skye is one of the most amazingly beautiful places I've ever been to - on the way to certain places that have become famous you pass by 10 other incredible views. You want to stop and appreciate every part of the countryside.

I also made a video about how to plan your own trip to Skye without a car and on a budget: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ju3dVn0_4HQ

We kept to a pretty tight budget and enjoyed the Isle of Skye in April before it is apparently overrun. Going out of season is a trade-off - it was way quieter but the rain was kind of a downer.

This was a great train travel trip in the UK, probably the best that you can do. Backpacking on the train is a lot of fun and we saw some beautiful places on our rail trip.

We got the sleeper train from London Euston, the Caledonian Sleeper and this video features a full review and cabin tour. We boooked the tickets online. We took the Calmac ferry from Malaig to Armadale after going over the Glenfinnan viaduct on the train. When staying in Broadford, we rented electric bikes from South Skye Cycles and took the road to Elgol. This was an unforgettable bike ride and I constantly wanted to stop and film, since every 100m we saw something else that seemed amazing and made me wish I hadn't stopped at the previous place. From Portree, we went on a couple of small hikes and took a minibus tour to the Quiraing, Fairy Glens, Fairy Pools, Uig, The Old Man of Storr, Kilt Rock and a few other places. It was the best trip ever.
