Une expérience parfaite pour découvrir les Highlands 🏴 Nous étions deux amies et nous avons loué ce van pour découvrir les Highlands et nous ne pouvions pas rêver mieux pour notre voyage ! Nous avions quelques appréhensions concernant la conduite à gauche, mais finalement, elle s’intègre assez rapidement. Le van se conduit très bien et est vraiment facile à prendre en main, même sur les routes parfois plus étroites des Highlands. Après quelques kilomètres, j’étais complètement à l’aise. Les routes à voie unique et leurs passing places demandent simplement un peu d’attention, mais cela fait partie de l’expérience écossaise ! Pour nous, il n’y a vraiment pas mieux que le van pour découvrir les Highlands. Il nous a permis de profiter pleinement des paysages, de nous déplacer facilement d’un endroit à l’autre et surtout de vivre une expérience beaucoup plus immersive qu’en voiture avec des hôtels. Le van est très bien équipé et nous avions tout ce qu’il fallait pour notre séjour. Les couchages sont également plutôt agréables et confortables. Petite mention spéciale pour la couchette du haut : il faut effectivement faire un peu d’acrobatie pour y monter , mais on s’y fait rapidement ! Nous tenons également à remercier Alicia, qui nous a très bien accueillies et a pris le temps de nous expliquer le fonctionnement du van dans les moindres détails. Nous étions deux et notre anglais est assez primaire, mais elle a été très patiente, claire et nous a vraiment mises en confiance avant notre départ. En résumé, une superbe expérience que nous recommandons sans hésitation ! Le van était parfait pour notre road trip et nous a permis de découvrir les Highlands dans des conditions idéales. Si nous devions refaire ce voyage, nous reprendrions sans hésiter un van ! 🏴✨

Nous avons vécu une expérience absolument géniale pour notre road trip dans les Highlands écossais ! Voyager en van nous a offert une liberté incroyable : pouvoir s’arrêter où l’on voulait, découvrir des paysages magnifiques à notre rythme et profiter pleinement de chaque instant. Pour moi, il n’y a pas d’autre meilleur moyen que de découvrir les Highlands qu’en Van. Le van Harris était parfaitement équipé, très confortable et pensé dans les moindres détails. Nous n’avons manqué de rien pendant tout le séjour, ce qui a rendu l’expérience encore plus agréable. Un immense merci à Alicia pour son accueil chaleureux ! Elle a pris le temps de tout nous expliquer avec beaucoup de patience et de clarté avant notre départ (bien que notre anglais soit mauvais, elle nous a vraiment bien tout expliqué dans le détail). Grâce à elle, nous sommes parties sereines et confiantes pour cette première aventure en van. Nous étions deux amies et nous nous sommes tout simplement régalées du début à la fin. C’est une expérience que nous referons sans hésiter, et nous repasserons avec grand plaisir par Highland Auto Campers. Merci encore pour ces souvenirs inoubliables !

We had a fantastic 3 nights in Hamish! Alicia was very friendly and explained everything to us before we headed off. We were a family of 3, and found the camper had everything we needed for our trip. The bedding was super comfy. Highly recommend for your next trip.

My Dad and I had an absolutely brilliant father and son road trip in Toby the camper van for 9 nights on the NC500. Great weather, great music on, great campsites and Toby the van was just brilliant. Alicia couldn’t have been more helpful from start when we booked the van, to the best campsite site tips, to the van collection briefing. Everything was so clear and well communicated with a great personal service from Highland Auto Campers. Toby was also equipped with all the stuff we could need thank you. A brilliant trip and we can’t wait to hire another van again.

Wow, we had just the BEST week with Harris doing the North Coast 500. I so appreciated a tour of how everything worked before we set off having never stayed in a camper van before, and meant we got the best use out of Harris over the week. Also, despite having been a bit nervous driving a camper, I fell in love with driving Harris, so easy to drive and get around, and getting him in exactly the right spot on camp sites was super easy. Oh, and the bed was soooo comfy! We both get up at 6am usually and just wake up naturally at that time, but one morning we didn’t wake up until 8am because it was so cosy! We felt like teenagers 😂 Cannot wait to come back and see even more of Scotland in a comfy camper, definitely converts! 🥰

We had the most fantastic trip around NC500 with our campervan Harris. Alicia was brilliant when we arrived and picked him up. We felt very supported throughout the trip and the return was just as straightforward. Van had everything we needed and the communication was excellent throughout - would highly recommend! The highland cow was an added bonus for photos!

We hired the Camper ‘Lewis’ for our trip around the NC500. The van was perfect for the journey at just the right size to get around the narrow roads. The bed was comfortable and there was plenty of space for storage. Cooking was also comfortable with the ability to raise the roof. We will definitely be contacting highland auto campers again for future journeys
