A guide for those planning a trip to Scotland and looking for Isle of Skye and Scottish Highlands itinerary ideas.

Although a huge land area, the Highlands and the northern islands of Scotland are sparsely populated, primarily rural, rugged, and full of biodiversity. This area is perfect for those looking for natural beauty and a sense of peace. We did this first trip to the Highlands and Isle of Skye with Edinburgh-based small tour operator Rabbie's Travel, and we'll share our own trip experiences and lots of photos on that tour! We'll also provide the general Scottish Highlands itinerary that we followed for those who may be thinking of putting together their own independent Scotland trip itinerary.

I have a dSLR (Canon Rebel) but in the couple years I've had it, I haven't taken the time to actually learn how to use it in manual mode. It's my goal for this summer.
