TOP 10 TIPS YOU NEED TO KNOW before going - • North Coast 500 - NC50...
We did the NC500 in our Vauxhall Vivaro camper conversion but the trip is also great for caravans, cars or motorbikes!
We cover pretty much everything along the way as we completed the anti-clockwise route of the NC500 in May 2021! We also bolted on a couple of days in Skye & Glencoe which were also amazing! The NC500 part of the trip took us around 9 days, it could be done in 7 days but we probably wouldn't recommend any less than that, there's a whole lot to see and you don't want to rush!

This has to be the most relateable video we have watched for our intended NC500 trip. So much so, we brought Robbie's book, which is a brilliant, down-to-earth, straightforward guide to getting the best out of the NC500. We sat with the book, the map, a glass of rum and the t'internet on Saturday and planned all our stop overs and must-sees ready for our trip in September. Thanks Robbie for making it even easier for us. We can't wait. The book will be upfront on our journey, pride of place ❤️
Thanks Helen! I really appreciate your kind feedback - I put a lot into the book and I’m so glad it’s helping you make the most of this epic adventure 😃
Great watch! Given us some good ideas for May!
Amazing video! Appreciate all the effort you’ve put in and cannot wait to put these tips into use for our trip ☺️
Thanks Emma that is greatly appreciated, we’re going back in November and are doing the route in hotels / bnb’s etc. It will be interesting to see how this differs from camping and also what impact the weather has on the route 😃
As it is said at 24:04 "I'd be happy if I died now." I knew exactly what was going on, because I had the same feeling in July 2022 as I saw the Duncansby Stacks. I wanted to sit down and look at the landscape for the rest of my life. A never experienced mixture of tranquility, utmost satisfaction, in peace with me and the world caught my soul. And I thought "If I die now, it would be perfect!".
There are many places in Scotland I fell in love with. As you can guess, the Duncansby Stacks are on top of them.
Thank you very much for your extraordinary footage, it is a joy to watch!
Thanks for your kind words!
Yes. If god said you can choose where you fall into your sleep before waking in a better world. This is one of those places that plucks at the heart strings. I walked down to the stacks February 2023.. the emotions you describe washed over me as well. Just a perfect mix of Sky, sea and land. Doesn't overpower the senses but hits the emotions like a train at 100mph. Just one of those special places that lets you breath.🤓💯❤🩹
We are planning our NC500 journey. Thanks for sharing your journey. It’s very helpful. Happy travels guys 👍
No problem thanks for watching and I hope you have the best time doing the NC500 😀
Thanks Roc and the family what a great tour, what a amazing place i cant wait to go myself, ive just ordered your tour of the nc500 in book form should be a great read
This video deserves more than 899 likes. I definitely thought it was great anyway. Fantastic drone shots too.
Thanks Poppy that’s kind of you to say 👍
Brilliant footage, glued start to finish 👏
Thanks Julia glad you enjoyed :) I've just started editing a new video from a 7 day NC500 trip we've just completed!
Great to see you having a good time pal
Cheers mate 👍
I love your doggy! Having a collie snuggle up to you after a long day is a great feeling!
The best feeling in the world 😂❤️
Awesome. Can’t wait to do this in August 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Spent about half my life split living in England & Scotland. I used to do the NC500 so many times in both directions. Many of my earlier years living in Scotland I was a little further south. Since we moved back up here again about 6yrs ago decided to come a bit further up. We now live with our kids right on the NC500 never gets boring absolutely love it.
Glad you like it. Sure is a great part of the world (but I would say that as I am a little biased haha).
Thank you, thank you, thank you for the spreadsheet. It will be a fantastic help to this Canadian who is planning to follow most of the same route when we come for 3 weeks next year.
Thanks for watching Grant, we hope you really enjoy your trip to Scotland! Canada is certainly on our list! If you need any more tips or advice just ask away. I’m hopefully going to make more videos in the next few weeks showing some of the top 10 locations and giving some practical tips before and during the trip. 👍
@@robbieroams That would be great. I will look forward to them. I especially liked that you put a graphic before every location. As a retired geography teacher I also give you a thumbs up for showing the map frequently. Because of this video I had to adjust our departure from Vancouver to leave a day earlier. I originally planned to go non-stop from Inverness to Thurso but you showed so many great stops along that route that I now want to go slow to really enjoy the coast.
Really enjoyed that. Have done about half of your trip and doing the rest in 2 weeks. Love Archie, he is so cool.
Thanks for watching, we hope you enjoy the rest of the trip! Archie is certainly one of a kind haha.
Well done. Loved your images.
Many thanks!
Hi Archie what really great filming we loved it!
Im from the South West Coast of Scotland not too far from The Galloway Forest Park famous for its Dark Skies at Night, it’s so pretty on a clear night you can see thousands of stars your Mum and Dad would love it!
All the best from 🐶🧡🏴 West
Thanks so much for watching 😀 I’m sure my Mum & Dad would love to visit The Galloway Forest Park one day soon thanks for the tip ❤️
Love the video, our fave bit was the drive around the Kyle of Tongue. We also headed over to Harris and Lewis amazing!! 👍🏻
That sounds incredible 🤗
Hallo Robbie, werden im nächsten Jahr von Österreich 4 Wochen Schottland mit dem Motorrad besuchen. Danke für deine tollen Reiseideen, werden sicher manches davon besuchen.
Enjoyed every minute of this video. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks Mike 👍
Great pictures. Thanks for sharing. Plan to go to all of these places in the Autumn.
Excellent have a great trip! 😀
Thank you for the great idea to go counterclockwise! Great maps!
Thanks Gwen we’re leaving to do the route again today! This time staying in local hotels and lodges 👍 We’ll be doing a video covering the trip 😅
Thankyou so much for the nc500 video, it has helped us with our plans for this year. Really enjoyed the visits and fab photos 😀
Thanks Karen I’m glad it helped.
Awesom videos mate👌 Thanks for sharing💚
Glad you enjoyed 🙏
we re going to do the NC 500 the week after next week. Shall be exciting! Thanks for sharing and regards from Bavaria!
All the best and thanks for watching 😀
Great video, great scenery, looks awesome I'm hoping to do it this summer july/August can't wait.
Thanks for watching. You’ll have a great time!
Absolutely brilliant video guys. I was glued to it. The drone shots and music were spot on. Looking at booking for April 2024 and this gets me so excited for it. We are also travelling from Staffordshire (Stoke) so know how long and tedious the trip to Inverness is!
Have a great trip I might be up there again next April so say hello if you see me 😀
Glad you included Dornoch and Borra, easily missed out but super incredible.
Agreed! 😀
Really enjoyed this! Thank you! I wish we were doing the whole 500.
Thanks for watching!
MAGIC .... huge thanks for sharing from Cornwall guys. Rock on.
Thanks Paul, we did a 1 week trip around Cornwall shortly after this trip! St Ives, Lizard & Looe were beautiful! There certainly should be a Devon & Cornwall 500 road trip put together it's such an incredible part of the UK.
@@robbieroams come and see us again ... thanks to both for a fine channel :)
Awesome video. Brings back some great memories. I'm planning on doing this all again, some of the scenery is so mind blowing it actually brings me to tears
It's incredible isn't it!
Good video enjoyed watching it 😊
Thanks David 🥳
Great vlog we just planning our NC500 trip and this has been very helpful 👍
Thanks Gary keep your eye out for my NC500 guide book which will be available at the start of next year 👍
Brilliant video guys ,really enjoyed it 😃😃
Thanks for watching Mike 😀
That toastie van is bangin ! Did same route I did, Isle of Skye blew my mind
Yeah the toasties were incredible 😀 Skye is so good.
Did this same trip 30 years ago using B &B. Some fantastic scenary and never realised it was 500 miles.Anyone about to do this trip, don't miss Dunrobin Castle or a day trip to the Shetlands and near Smoo Cove, Cape Wrath. Great video.
Thanks Rex all the best 🙏👍
Thank you for this helpfull video! I will do the trip in September
Hi Helen, thanks for watching have a fantastic trip 😃
Great video. Thanks for sharing. Plan to use your itinerary as a guide. Hope to get up there in April 23. Cheers - keep up the great work 😎👍
Thankyou have a great trip!
Just brilliant I loved this
Thanks glad you enjoyed 😃
Great vid mate we are doing this in September, great pointers.
Thanks 🙏
I’ll be visiting in March 2022. This will be my third visit. I love it all. I’ll be touring the 500 after spending a week in Fife.
Brilliant vlog guys, so glad I came across your channel 😍 I'm a fellow West midlander so I'm happy to support your channel! Due to head to Scotland in September (Glen coe, some of the Nc500, Skye and Mallaig) so this video has been so helpful, thanks for the awesome content 👍❤️
Thanks so much! You’ll absolutely love it. We’ll be doing some more tips / top 10 videos very soon about Scotland and NC500 so you should get some value from them 😀
Amazing video got the book for Christmas and will be going in may 2023
Thanks David that’s very kind of you, I hope you have a great trip! I’m back up there in April so potentially there may be a new video with some updates for you before you go 👍
Love your wee collie dog....not so keen on the seagull🤣
Haha thanks Steve he’s a great dog 🐶
Really great guys,were heading up next year and this vlog will be so helpful,your all naturals in front of the camera,loved it 😀x +fantastic filming too
Hi Lisa, thanks so much for your comment. I’m sure you’ll have a fantastic time 😃

What an epic vlog, really enjoyed this one. Bought both your books for our adventures in our 32 year old van later this year. Take care Sarah and lee
Thanks guys, I hope you have a great year of adventures 🙏
Cheers Robbie, thanks for the NC500 playlist. Good start for our planning own trip tp the NC500 in 2024. I've many times hiking through the highlands and did some Munro bagging. This is our first time traveling all over northern scotland. .
Thanks Nico, wishing you all the best 👌
We start our adventure with our 2 dogs in October and this has been soooooo useful !
Have a great time! Your dogs will absolutely love it 😍
Epic video, just bought the book as we're off in July to do the nc500, will be a emotional trip as we've just done Lands End and area, John o groats will be a memorable ride.
Enjoy and thank you 🙏
Thanks Robbie, just bought your book. Be there in September
Thank you, I wish you a fantastic trip!
Excellent videos with tons of information. We’re planning ours for next March-April 2025
Thank you 🙏
Watched to videos, absolutely loved them! You're so informative and funny which seems to come so naturally. Got the book on order it looks like a well put together 😁👍
Thanks a lot Andy I really appreciate it 👍
Greetings from Bonnie Scotland.
Keep it lit, folks!
Haste ye Back!
Thank you 🙏
Definitely want to do this trip in my classic mini
Nice 👌
Great video. All the best with more travels. I live in northeast Scotland in aberdeen. ✊🐕🧠😎' SLAINTE '🥃
Epic... 🥰 thank you 👌👍🍾🍾🍾
🙏🙏🙏
Really enjoyed this - thank you :-)
Thanks so much for watching 😃
Good vid, liked the humour and the fact u never took it too serious about the pronunciation of our country ...hope to c u again in Scotland!!😍
Glad you enjoyed it! I’ll be back up North next month 👌
Braemar, and the drive along that area. We always enjoyed a day drive up through that area.
what a beautiful Collie !
Thanks so much
Great vid again Robbie - am going to be doing the West Coast half and Skye next week. No Cheese Toastie at Durness this time though ! 😮😁 I remember crossing at Kylescue on the old ferry before the bridge was even built back in the day. Can’t wait to give the modern day look a try 😊👍🏻
Wow that will be awesome! What about a pie at Lochinver? 😂
Awesome video
Thanks Sheila 😃
Nice take on the NC500, you guys made it look fun, appreciate the comments on us Scots🏴👍
I’m in Fort William again now we just did Ben Nevis 👍 Can’t beat Scottish friendly hospitality 😀
BEM as viewed , is deceiving, it is actually ‘a bit ‘ like a iceberg, there is a lot more hidden ( until you get to the top )
Just received your book and big map. 10 out of 10 mate. Have now locked in all our accommodation for next April following your 7 day itinerary- love it.
Brilliant thank you! I hope you have a wonderful trip 🙌
Great video Robbie hope to be doing the NC next year,What time of year was your trip?
Awesome my wife and I have just got back from our 500 trip in our mini coupe convertible we absolutely loved Scotland and will be visiting again hopefully next time in a van with our dog loved the video keep up the great work
Thanks for watching how was your trip? 😃
@@robbieroams our trip was fantastic it was originally organised last year but due to COVID it got cancelled so I kept all the original bookings for the hotels I was concerned that it would be busy but really had no issues at all
The locals we meet couldn’t have been more friendly would love to do it in a camper next time
Hiya, your video popped up on my newsfeed and i can honestly say its the best narrated and scenic vlog ive watched of the NC500 and ive watched a few. I did a trip to Skye in May this year as its been on my bucket list for years. I managed half way up The Old Man of Stor and im 65 with dodgy knees but as you said the views are out of this world. My one regret is not getting to do the 500 but through your eyes I felt i was there. The music and drone shots were epic. Ill definitely recommend your book Robbie ❤
Thanks Sandra, that’s so kind of you to say and well done for tackling the old man of stor 👍😀
Ah glad I found this as planning a trip round the NC500 soon! Very informative & really helped :) Also, I’m starting from Staffordshire too, so guess I’ll be having the long starting drive as well!
Great thanks I going soon
Some stunning places there
Some incredible places along the way, are you planning to do the route?
@@robbieroams I did it on a motorcycle it pissed down , but my mrs's fancied doing it now ,so looking to do it in my car ,b&b's and some camping
Great video - and hit most of the high;lights of the NC500 - I would add Loch Torridon to the list of places. Well done Robbie.
It’s in my more recent video where we visited in November! Lovely place thanks Craig 🙏
@@robbieroams Just about to check this out. Cheers
Amazing insight into your journey! Thank you for sharing!. My Husband and I are planning to do this in our campervan in 5 weeks time for our first anniversary. We were going to do it last year for honeymoon but my mum was poorly so i couldn’t do it. I’ve been doing research and it’s good to see that some things on my list are places that you’ve visited too. We are also from Staffs :-).
Hi Michelle that’s great I hope you have a fantastic trip and thanks for watching 😀
What a fantastic video! I just discovered you because I'm researching for a road trip. There is sooo much inspiration here - thank you, thank you, thank you. Love your style, and the drone footage is magnificent. Archie is gorgeous too. I have subscribed 😊
Thanks so much for subscribing! We’re just about to do the route again but this time we’re staying in hotels / lodges and b’n’b’s plus stopping at some places we missed last time 🙏🏴
@@robbieroams Great! I look forward to seeing some highlights from your upcoming trip 😊
Awesome! We have just got back from our trip and have also filmed the whole thing but have split it up in to multiple vids as we had sooo much footage. You have been to some of the same places we went. We stayed at Dornoch bay too, went for a little dip in the ocean in the morning (cold af). Strathy Bay next, same as you... what a place that is! We spent a night there and honestly had the most fun, the sun was out and it was super nice! The West coast was out of this world! Love your vid, making me wanna go back again! "i'm James Bond mate, do you wanna see my weapon!" hahaha brilliant.
Haha thanks a lot I look forward to seeing your videos 👍 The weather when we went was at most 8-9 degrees with a cold northerly wind so the temptation to go for a dip was certainly at rock bottom 😂 We’re hoping to go back in the winter at some point and try out some hotels / lodges 😃
@@robbieroams another trip has to be done for sure! Man it was super warm when we went, think we got lucky! It was warmer in Scotland than in South England, felt like a proper summer holiday. Take care mate
Hey Robbie, Just started to plan a month long NC500 trip for next spring and found your film amongst the plethora of dreadful self indulgent RUclipsr dross thats out there. It's been really good to both watch from an entertainment perspective and also gain lots of useful information. Now subscribed and looking forward to watching some more of your content. Well done mate
Woody
Thanks Woody, really appreciate your comment and thanks for watching 😃 I’m doing another NC500 trip in November so I’ll be covering a lot of places I didn’t get to first time 👍
@@robbieroams j
Honestly don't think I've ever watched a full vlog. I usually get bored but this was awesome from the beginning haha thanks mate!
Thanks that’s much appreciated 👍
@@robbieroams can't wait to do the run myself now mate. Some awesome Info in this video once again thanks
Did the James Bond photo Glen Etive in march with our camper van and like you I was BUZZING made my wife laugh photo came out so well had it blown up. It’s on the living room wall👍
That’s brilliant I loved getting that photo 👍😀
This is so exciting. Hubby and I will be doing the NC500 in October. Travelling from Australia. So far, Isle of Skye would have to be high up on the list of places we’ve visited. This vid is making me even more excited. Cheers. 🇦🇺
Edit: Loved your ending where you recapped some of the amazing scenes. Excellent vid.
If you are looking for a superb B&B on Skye, have a look at Hillstone Lodge. We stayed there a few years ago on a drive around Scotland (we're Aussies). It was magnificent. New owners since then and I think they are licensed now. 🇦🇺
Just got the book Robbie I’m already having fun just planning it even though I’ve done parts of it anyway, brilliant book though a wealth on information thank you for putting so much work into it, I’m off to wales in a few weeks so think I’ll have that book as well
Thanks a lot Chris! 🙏
Only just discovered your vlog…but just in time, as we are off tomorrow on our NC500 trip! Both the videos I watched of yours were really interesting, great production & cast! 😄 Gave us a tips & it wasngreat to see the roads as we are a little daunted but very excited! Thanks!
Thanks Christine you’ll be absolutely fine so long as there’s no snow 👌 Have a wonderful trip and please consider subscribing for future videos 👍
Thanks Robbie…Already subscribed! 😊
Currently editing my NC500 VIDEO, loving the epidemic sounds ;)
Awesome I’ll look forward to seeing that. Yeah can’t be beaten for ready to go tracks 😃
@@robbieroams ruclips.net/video/kY08ITMlmMM/видео.html got her finished!
Good vid there’s gotta be a joke about the knob on the wheel, nice dug
Thanks 👍😂
I live in Stirling Scotland now but I used to in a fishing village burghead which was beautiful but my fav places is Durness- Montrose burghead beach Ullapool ❤️❤️
We stayed 5 days at Dornoch at the caravan site at Embo , a lodge right on the sea front . So relaxing. We travelled up from Cardiff.
Nice how was your stay there?
@@robbieroams well on our way up we stopped over in southerness near Dumfries to break up the trip for 3 nights . Had a few days discovering the Galloway forest and surrounding areas. My sons a keen mountain biker so he did that while we explored. We then travelled up the west coast from Glasgow to fort William via loch lomond and Glencoe ( stunning scenery) it must be said , then across loch ness to Inverness and then to Dornoch. Stayed at grannie halem hame which is a parkdean caravan site right on the sea front at Embo. The beach is beautiful there , white sands and clear water and the site itself is so quiet and relaxing. We used that as a base then to travel around the east coast . Day trips then to john o groats, loch ness , cairngorms. We ll try and do the west coast and some islands next year maybe mull and skye. September seems a good time of year to go as it's a bit quieter and the weather is generally good .
great video, we start our road trip in a couple of days, going a similar route, first stop for us is also Fortrose, we have booked b & b's along the route. Our NC500 will be 8 nights.
Hi Mark, have a great trip!
Really good video with some stunning shots and some great drone footage. Thank you for sharing. We’re hopefully going to the west coast of Scotland for a few days soon and I’m watching these vids as I’m just so excited. We’re not going until October lol. I wanted to ask about your camera. What make and model and also it seemed you used a gimbal. Can you tell me which model as I’m looking at getting one for my dslr also. Great job.
I've also bought your book as a guide.
Thanks Patricia that’s very kind 😃
Found this so helpful. My husband and I along with our border collie will be heading off in 3 weeks. Hiring a campervan which we only have for a week. I'm now tempted to follow your route! We are also heading from South Staffordshire!
That’s great you’ll absolutely love it. Your collie will be in their element for sure. If you have a weeks hire I would trim down the trip and possibly skip ‘the black isle’ and head straight to Dornoch and pick it up from there. Then complete the trip at Applecross. We bolted on a few extra days in Skye and Glencoe but you can save that for another time 👍
we went to Ullapool 2 years ago it was lovely.
It’s a great little place isn’t it? 😃
@@robbieroams yes i,d love to live there
If you're after the best beaches here you have to go to Barra, Harris/Lewis and Uist.
Hell yes 👍
Really enjoyed your video and bought your book. We are doing the NC500 next month, driving up from Oxfordshire. PS I’m originally from Hednesford, Staffs, your accent seems like you come from that neck of the woods.
Thanks Steve have a great trip. We’re not too far from Hednesford at all, although one would argue the Hednesford accent is a lot stronger 😂
Hi mate fellow midlander here great vid we are just planing this trip got Vauxhall vivaro 19 diesel not sure what yours is so hopefully it will be fine for them hills thanks for putting this on guys
Very nice, ours is 2011 diesel, it absolutely smashed the hills and mountain passes 😃 You’ll really enjoy it!
Archie was literally loving life
He really was!
Applecross, in the top three of the best places in Scotland. John O Groats isn’t the most northerly point on the UK mainland. Dunnet Head is the most northerly point. Great video .
Thanks for watching I’n glad you enjoyed it!
Hi.
Brill video. Cheers. We are planning a trip similar to yours next year in a MORGAN 3 wheeler with our collie dog. Pretty much same route as yourself. But probably B & N’s etc as camping might be a bit daft considering our mode of transportation. lol.
We are going to trailer our Mog up from Bewdley ( home ) up to Inverness and then do anticlockwise trip like you.
Your vid was brilliant/ very useful.
Many thanks to you.
Cheers.
Regards
Rog.
P.s. Midges ??? May / June ??
Thanks for watching that sounds like a great trip! You should completely miss the midges at that time 👍
Thats us at the top of the hill at Rhue Hill above Ardmair at Ullapool 🤣
No way 😂 We thought it sounded like a proper party up there 😃
I drive 7 hrs in Texas and I’m still in Texas 😂 crazy how small the uk is compared to one state I want to visit Scotland soon
Texas is a beast 😂😀
Fantastic video, really helpful. Currently researching the NC500 as I am planning on taking this trip with my husband for an incredibly belated honeymoon! (We've been married 13yrs!!!!) Truly amazing drone footage
Thanks Vanessa, I have no doubt you’ll absolutely love the trip and there can’t be many better places for a belated honeymoon 😀
Vanessa Brown excuse me being nosey, but how long ru planning on doing the NC500?..Ness islands, loved by the locals, is a highlight of Inverness.Balnakeil bay& Oldshoremore beach are very nice. It is worth detouring from the coast, u will not be disappointed, Handa island for wildlife, beware diving bonxies, reached by short boat ride. Wonderful fresh seafood nearby. Lochinver loop b869 to Lochinver, diversion Falls of Kirkaig, drive round to sw coast for great views of summer isles via coast road to lovely achnahaird beach, Ben Hope& Ben Loyal loop. Sandwood bay is THE BEACH in mainland UK let alone BONNIE SCOTLAND,well worth the effort a 3hr walk roundtrip. Stunning scenery awaits as u head south, a832, gairloch& redpoint fine coastal walk&Sandy beach wi' cracking views of Skye& Torridon mountains, loch MAREE, glen torridon, shieldag, stunning coast road to Applecross via the famous or infamous BEALACH NA BA( pass of the cattle), scary or exhilarating drive down a steep& twisty narrow road. Enjoy when&where, u go my beautiful wee country will not disappoint you
@@robbieroams Aye almost a nice blog, apart frae ur poor attempt at accents pronunciation, Scottish weather is not as dreich as you make out, John of groats is not the most northerly point, Duncasby head is.🏴🏴🏴
@@neilanderson841 oh wow, thank you. I've got a massive list of places we wanna see so we're looking at a 7-10 day trip but could possibly extend it to 14days if needs must. Sandwood Bay is a definite on our plans but Ben Hope is a bit much, especially for my husband. We have a 7seater car and so we're temporary converting the back into a sleep area for just in case.
@@vanessabown7544 Your most welcome, I took 6 weeks and will have to go back again&again?!!!. East is nice but West coast is simply magnificent better to sip & savour, it's to good to rush. Almost Lochinver pies are to die for, u will not a tastier range of fillings anywhere else😋😋. 🏴🏴 rocks. Am a text awa' should you have any questions.
Cracking video, enjoyed it all. We plan to go in June. One thing? Do you have green eye brows?
😂 last time I checked they weren’t green but I could be open to a change 👍
I want to do the NC 500 on the bike)) love st andrews and all scotland)) 😊
It’s a wonderful part of the UK!
Hi mate - loved the video. Just wondering if you could share where you got your background music for most of the drone shots? Really adds a nice atmosphere to the shots
I use epidemic sound 😀
