Reviews
My boyfriend and I hired Flora for 8 nights back in october. We promised ourselves to leave a review because our experience was wonderful. The staff was very helpful and very kind. Special mention to Rob who really took time to give us tips & tricks for travelling around Scotland! We had a great time with Flora and I think Big Sky Campers is a trustworthy campervan hire company: the service is good, the price are affordable, the campers are beautiful and well-equiped. Thank you for the wonderful experience! We had a great time.
We rented Rowan for 4 days at the beginning of October. Our first experience in a van! Our rental with big sky campers was perfect. The welcome, the Vanlife course, the van like new, the sleeping equipment and finally the kindness and sense of service of our rental company from our check in to our check out. And Scotland in a van is freedom in magnificent landscapes and campsites reserved for vans and motorhomes. Experience it after Edinburgh and do it with Big Sky Camper.
Excellent company, friendly, helpful and professional. The vans are modern, well fitted and have everything you need for a road trip. Will certainly use again and you definitely should too!
We rented the Bonnie camper for three weeks in August. Everything went really well, the vehicle was in very good condition and we had no problems at all. The personal contact and service was also very friendly and helpful. Any time again.
We traveled from London and picked up our camper Freya for a trip around Scotland. From start to finish the whole experience with Big Sky Campers was absolutely incredible. We did look at other companies but Big Sky is family run and make the process so easy. Such lovely people and really care about their customers. Thank you Rob, Alex and George we will see you very soon. Already planning our next trip with you guy's. If you're looking to hire a camper and see Scotland go with Big Sky Campers, you won't regret it. Highly recommended.
Rented a van for 3 nights and had the most lovely time. The team was very accommodating with all the information we needed ahead of taking off and even shuttled us back and forth to the local train station. Their website is incredibly helpful with lots of excellent campsite and route recommendations and the vans themselves were top of the line, clean, and very comfortable for two people. We were also grateful for the automatic transmissions.Highlight of our trip for sure!!
We rented freya the van for 12 days, she drivers so easy, easier to drive than a car or truck surprisingly. We were able to drive all over Scotland 🏴 it was amazing, if I ever come back I would rent through this company again, the owner was excellent and sweet.
We recently hired "Magnus," a VW camper from Big Sky Campers, and our experience was fantastic from start to finish. The pickup process was smooth and straightforward. The staff took the time to show us all the functions of the camper, which was clean, comfortable, and spacious—perfect for our family of four.We spent a week traveling around Scotland, and the camper was easy to set up at our overnight stops. Its size was ideal for navigating some of the tighter roads, and driving it was a breeze—especially since we opted for the automatic transmission. One tip: remember to bring a USBC cable for the CarPlay satnav! We forgot ours, but George kindly loaned us one.Dropping off the camper was just as easy as picking it up, and the location of Big Sky Campers is very accessible. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly throughout our rental experience. We’re already looking forward to hiring from Big Sky Campers again in the future!
Amazing campervan, very comfortable to drive and stay in. The facilities in the van are great, easy to use and it was dog friendly too. We had a fantastic holiday thanks to big sky campers.
We rented Oona for a week.The stay was fantastic! The van was ideal for this road trip in Scotland, it is super well equipped, you don't have to plan anything. Big Sky Camper remains available quickly if you have the slightest problem with the van.We recommend with your eyes closed!
We had a great time with "Brody". The vans contain everything you need! Reliable and quick rental responses.
We rented Freya for a three night road trip to the Isle of Skye. I cannot recommend Big Sky Campers enough. The vans were terrific to drive and well-equipped - luxury on wheels. But the customer service is what really sets Big Sky apart. We had a hiccup with the required documentation on arrival (an error on my part) and Big Sky were incredibly helpful and patient with trouble shooting and resolving the issue. They saved our holiday and we were so grateful! I would recommend them in a heartbeat.
A perfect stop. We looked for English Gas including English Adapter for German System and asked them. They could help us with the advice to go to the big shop of Russell Gas & Lawnmower Centre in Edinburgh, 5 Bankhead Crossway N, Edinburgh EH11 4BZ, Vereinigtes Königreich. Here we found we looked for perfect andca food price. 129£ for 11 kg Gas including the Adapter with hose.
We recently hired Flora for 5 nights from Big Sky Campers. They are a first class company to deal with. In terms of service it was brilliant. We pitched up at their base to have a look at the vans available for hire and George was more than happy to help two 54 year old newbies about to set off in a campervan for the first time. George was extremely friendly , helpful and explained how the rental process worked and showed us around the vans.A super first impression.The communications leading up to the hire day were very good and detailed.On the day we picked up the van we got a full demo of how the van operated etc I’m aware of other companies who just send you a video. We thought this was very important. The van was immaculate when we picked it up.The van itself had everything you needed for a trip. Cooking facilities, fridge, charging points, bedding, towels.The van is easy to drive and can be parked in a standard parking space.We asked a few questions prior to picking the van and always got a prompt response. I got the impression that Rob would try and do whatever he could to ensure his clients had everything they needed to have the best time on their travels,This was also quite key for us they love dogs and had vans for hire catering for dogs.All in we had a superb 5 nights and would highly recommend Big Sky Campers,Paul, Susan and Frankie.
We rented a van for 6 days. It was one of our best vacation experiences ever. The vans are in a good technical condition and really well made. The layout is very practical. It is well isolated. We didn't need to use the heating at all. Rob supplies all the necessary equipment - bedding, cutlery etc. There was exactly everything we needed. We didn't need to bring any of our camping equipment. We used almost everything and we didn't miss anything. For example there was beer opener and can opener. It's surprising in how many Airbnbs these are missing, but here they were. It's clear that these vans are build and equipped based on a strong experience. We also appreciate no ads or commercial labels on the van. The communication with Rob was clear and efficient. Train station pickup and drop was really convenient.From time to time I encounter exceptional companies. And this is one of them. This is how you do the business. Rob goes beyond and tries to provide great holiday experience for his customers. We didn't need to be afraid of being ripped off or charged extra because of made up damages, strange insurance, extra equipment etc. Which is a common case in rental companies. Instead there is very human approach. The desire is provide a great experience for the customer. Money is not the strongest and the only motivation here. And that we really appreciate.We wish all the best in the upcoming years! Keep it up :)
We rented two camper vans from Rob at BigSkyCampers and spent 4 days of our 2 week UK vacation hiking Isle of Skye and Glencoe. The vans had everything we needed, we were blessed with great weather, and the hikes and campsites were all epic. All of the Scots we met along the way were so friendly. Wish we allocated more time to this leg of the trip. A good reason to return!
We rented Flora for a week and had a great experience! Everything we needed was included in the van, and all equipment ran smoothly. The van was plesantly easy to drive along the small roads of the Highlands, and quick to set up at campsites.Thanks to Rob & Alex for being so helpful during the whole process! Highly recommend :)
We had a great time with our baby blue Mac! Easy to operate camper van, a good drive and lots of adventure. ????
We hired Ruby last week for a visit to the NW coast. Very confortable and drove beautifully. Super efficient pick up and hand over. Rob and his team are very friendly and go the extra mile.
Amazing company, holiday quite literally of a lifetime. They supported us with everything throughout the trip, gave us so much information ahead of heading out and the van is amazing!! Our van was perfect for 2 people. Thank you Rob and team for making this such a trip to remember, we are already planning another trip and will definitely be booking with Big Sky Campers!
Sorry for the late review life is just too busy ! We had the most idyllic weekend in March ... the perfect way to see some amazing places travelling around in the lovely Mac ... Scotland is just so so beautiful!! Big Sky Campers are so friendly and helpful , without a doubt we will definitely be recommending them to everyone!!!
We had Freya for 10 days. Did the NC500. Thanks Rob and George for the seamless collection and hand back of the vehicle. New van and a wonderful road trip was had. Dorian and Annemarie
5 star experience from start to finish. The team at Big Sky Campers was fantastic to deal with, great customer service and was on hand to quickly respond to any questions. The van was amazing, we had magnus and couldn't have asked for much more. The van was clean and stocked with everything we could have needed. Would recommend to anyone who is thinking of hiring a campervan in scotland. We did the NC500 in the camper and couldn't have been happier.
We had an amazing holiday thanks to big sky campers. We rented the van for 6 nights in march. This gave us plenty of time to explore the Isle of Skye and some of the Mainland. The communication between us and big sky campers was seamless. The pick-up and the drop-off was easy, fast and friendly. The Van itself was also amazing, the bed was comfy, the stove and fridge great. Everything you could need was already in the van.Absolutely would rent there again! Warm recommendation for everyone who is looking for van for the holidays.
Overall the van was super clean and really well maintained. Issue from our side was around paying for an additional driver to be included and highlighting that an international driving license would be used we had been informed by Big Sky campers that we need to confirm that its valid for the UK, which it is. When collecting it was not accepted and we asked for a refund for the additional driver as it was not required it was simply refused.
We had an incredible trip exploring the Scottish Highlands! The van had everything we needed, the staff were incredibly helpful, accommodating, and kind. Highly recommend!
Friendly service, they'll pick you up from Inverkeithing train station. New VW Transporters with everything you need, power hookup, hob, gas heating the works.Great value(almost half price compared to big renting companies!), and they won't scam you out of your deposit!
Great experience with Betty, it was really great. Thanks to Rob for his advice and kindness. We highly recommend big sky ;) see you soon.
Rob and his team were very patient and assuring with my many questions (being the over-thinker that I am) even before we collected the van. We had the pleasure to drive Bonnie, the beautiful and reliable campervan with HEATED seats! This was such a life saver in winter. Also, everything we needed was all in the cost - no hidden fees!Despite my first time driving a van, it was super easy. Thank you again to George, who sent us from and to the station, saving us precious time and money. Definitely recommend Big Sky Campers!
We had an amazing 6 nights exploring Loch Lomond, Glencoe, Skye, Ness, and the Cairngorms in late November. Big Sky Campers in the best in the business and I have nothing bad to say about them or the vans. They include everything without extra charge and are very personable and understanding for what’s needed for this type of adventure. They are super fair and honest with security deposit and don’t rip you off like some other larger companies may attempt to. Well worth the cost for the service and all that’s included. 10/10, will come back again!
We had an absolutely magical trip with Big Sky Campers in October. The van was cosy and comfortable (even with two kids who insisted on sharing the bed with me), it was a pleasure to drive and we had everything we needed – including hot water bottles for those chilly nights. The team at Big Sky Campers was amazing from the very start, giving us suggestions of great campsites and places to go, and put me at ease about driving a much bigger vehicle than I'm used to. One of those trips that we'll be talking about for a long time – thank you!
I recommend Big Sky Campers. Individual approach to the client. Helpful owner who patiently answers every question.The cars are in very good condition.
Cant recommend Big Sky Campers enough. Excellent customer service throughout. We hired Bonnie and she was a dream to drive and stay in. Will definitely be using them again for our next adventure. Thank you Rob & Alex.
Extraordinary experience lived aboard the Oona. The van was really comfortable, clean and very well equipped. We were able to discover the Highlands and the Isle of Skye. A very professional, accommodating and attentive team. We are already nostalgic. I highly recommend Big Sky Campers to discover the magnificent landscapes of Scotland ⭐️
We went on a great trip back in June, and everything was just great. Really professional communication and support from the team. But also a great car that was clean, well kitted, comfortable and just a blast to drive. I do really not have anything else to say! Highly recommend.
Fantastic weekend in Freja she had everything we needed for 2 adults and 2 fur baby's.The team at big sky campers were fantastic I can’t recommend this company highly enough if you are looking for all in with no hidden costs camper van hire give them a go
Just back from a week of the NC500. The van (Mac) was ace, everything we needed and more was included and it performed flawlessly. Unlimited mileage and dog friendliness made them an easy choice. The booking, collection and return process were a breeze, and Rob and George were both lovely guys and a pleasure to deal with. If you are thinking about a trip, then these are the guys to use.
We had Harry for our family holiday, he didn't disappoint.Thoroughly enjoyed our time away. Thank you.
OUTSTANDING!! - we hired a camper van from here, was incredibly easy process to collect, everything included, all needs catered for. The van was spotless, and drive was perfect. Very approachable staff, Rob and Alex there to help throughout our journey, collected and dropped us at the station. Very down to earth, and accommodating. If you are going to hire a camper van in the north of Scotland, this is the company you should use!!!
We had an absolutely lovely time spending 8 days exploring the Highlands in Brodie. The van was excellent, and Rob and George made the whole experience welcoming and easy. If only every vehicle renting experience was like this, the traveling world would be a much better place.
A huge thank you to Big Sky Campers for making the Scotland leg of our family UK & Europe trip so seamless. They communicated promptly and went out of their way to accommodate our needs at pick up and drop off. Our van Magnus was perfect, easy to operate and roomy enough for the 4 of us (2 adults, 2 teens). We loved our time in Scotland and the freedom that having a campervan gave us. We hope to come back one day!
Thanks to Big Sky Campers we were able to make our long-standing dream of travelling around Scotland come true in July 2023. It was a great adventure - Rob, Alex and George are simply the best team who care about their customers :) We received answers to all our questions and felt really 'looked after'. Campervan Magnus was our home on wheels for two weeks - perfectly equipped and comfortable for a family of 4. It met our expectations in every way:) We will definitely return to beautiful Scotland in the future (NC 500, Orkney Islands, Shetland Islands...and many other magical places) and we will hire a campervan from Big Sky Campers! Best greetings from Poland to the Team and see you in the future :)
Very good rental experience with Big Sky Campers.Quality vans, very good advice for the trip. Quick and efficient exchanges even during the rental and transfers from Inverkeithing or ferrytoll to go to the airport.Thanks Rob and Alex!!
We had an amazing holiday in early July with 'Duncan' from Big Sky Campers. The van is really spacious with everything needed for a home away from home and my husband said it was great to drive!Everyone at Big Sky Campers was really, really helpful, friendly and professional with excellent customer service and as a plus, their website gives you some great tips for places to visit and how to make the most of your holiday.Highly recommended, I am already looking to book my next break with Big Sky Campers and if you are looking to book a campervan break, you will not be disappointed!
Rob and his associates at Big Sky Campers are very kind and helpful.They picked us up from the train station to the warehouse and vice versa when we returned the van.Speaking of the van, it was delivered in excellent quality, with everything we needed, as promised.It made our journey in the Higlands so pleasant.Thank you so much for your excellent service. I definitely recommend Big Sky Campers for van rental.
Great service and friendly - we were cozy in Ruby fir our week awayPeterhead- Kinloss - Rothiemurchus,BraemarThank you
We rented Flora for a week to do the NC500 as our honeymoon.She was absolutely amazing and handled a few of the dodgy roads with absolute ease.The van was in amazing condition, was comfortable and really was just great fun!The team also were so helpful and nice to us when we picked the van, a pleasure to deal with.An all round excellent experience!
We booked Bonnie for a week and absolutely LOVED our time! We had 4 adults in one van and it worked out just fine if you are okay being a little close. We never had to book a campsite. We were able to wild-camp each night and finding water to refill was our only difficulty. Your camper van has everything you would need— there are chairs, tables, cooking ware, bedding, etc. The team was very accommodating, friendly, and helpful. They picked us up from the train station and dropped us off after we were done with our stay. It was a zero stress experience and would HIGHLY recommend Big Sky Campervans to other travelers! You will have a blast!
Absolutely recommended. We had a great experience with our van from Big Sky. The van drove wonderfully. The amenities of the van were great, including the expandable roof. The beds were very comfortable. The van was also very well insulated so it stayed a comfortable temperature all night. I would absolutely recommend Big Sky Campers, and I would not hesitate to hire their van again.
Had the best trip away with Big Sky Campers. From initial enquiry to drop off Rob and the team were responsive, reasonable, and a good laugh. We were picked up and dropped off to the station with no bother, which was ideal. Brodie was the ideal vehicle who handled all roads and weather's. The fact that everything is included is a real bonus. Already highly recommended to everyone, and hope to book again very soon.
Big Sky Campers was the perfect place to hire from, we hired flora and she was amazing. Clean, in very good condition and came with pretty much everything we needed. She was the perfect companion as we travelled through the North Coast of Scotland. I will 100% be using them and would recommend to anyone.
We had a lovely 2 week trip around the Scottish Highlands and the Isle of Skye in Harry! He is fully equipped and has unlimited mileage which for us was a must! Driving on the left was an adjustment at first but overall Harry was easy to adjust to and not too big which was perfect for the single track roads up north. Rob was very quick to reply and came to pick us up at the nearby train station which is an added bonus! Would book again without hesitation.
We had a wonderfull trip with Betty around Scottland and luckily had almost no rain :-).Pick-up, hand-over and return of the hire was well arranged and super professional. Thanks to Rob and the team, we always felt in good hands!Best, Martin and familiy
We rented Mac, the Jeep Wrangler with rooftop tent for the week and had an amazing roadtrip with it. The car was very well equipped with everything you need and communications with Big Sky campers went really well. Would highly recommend!
Flora was the best campervan we could have asked for! Extra cozy and worked perfectly. Owners are wonderful people too.
Me and my girlfriend had an excellent one week long trip with Wallace - the Landrover Defender. Booking the Landy on the website was very easy and handy. The pickup of the car and service as well as explanation provided by Rob and Alexa was perfect. The car itself is magnificent - very clever design, kitted with everything you need and for me as a Defender enthusiast one of the big highlights on my Scotland trip itself. ;)I can only recommend booking Wallace or one of the other camper vans with Big Sky Campers to explore Scotland! I especially liked the personal and individual style of the cars and service compared to the other car rentals!
We rented the VW California with integrated kitchen and bed. The car was as new, very roomy and comfortable.Rob is very helpful and you notice right away that he loves what he is doing :)Can only recommend - 5 stars :)
Rob was very kind and helpful. Picked us up from the train station and delivered back after the trip.Car was perfect and we enjoyed it. VW T2 gave us retro celebrity feeling 😀
We just got back from a 7 night trip driving Rowan around the NC500. We had the best time - we were travelling with our 2 year old daughter and Rob and Alex made it so easy for us, providing everything we could need for a comfortable stay. It was our first time driving and staying in a campervan and the whole process was so straightforward - Rob made sure we knew how everything worked before we drove off. I highly recommend Big Sky Campers for campervan rental!
My family rented Flora for me post-covid for the weekend as a multiple-missed-birthdays treat! She was an absolute pleasure to drive and has been maintained beautifully. We travelled to Mull and Iona and got lots of waves and smiles as we drove by, she certainly brought the sunshine when it was raining. Such an amazing experience, I've always wanted to drive and original VW T2 ???? BSC were super knowledgeable and helpful, so easy to communicate with and gave us lots of tips. Would definitely recommend Flora if you want a classic roadtrip experience!
I recently hired VW Brodie for a 2 week trip around the NC500, Lewis & Harris and Skye and cannot fault the service received and Brodie himself! The van was the perfect way to drive around those twisty Highlands roads, the bed was comfy and everything you need was there for you. I can’t thank Rob enough for the friendly service and fantastic van!
I did a LOT of research when looking to hire a campervan to do the NC500. I’m so glad I went with Big Sky Campers! They were very transparent about costs, were flexible and clearly take huge pride and care with their fleet. Rob made us feel that the van was there to be enjoyed. We had Rowan and she was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Blue Sky Camiers and I’ll definitely go back to them when planning our next adventure!
I had the most fantastic long weekend driving Dougal, the vintage VW around the beautiful roads of the Highlands. He is a true dream to drive and super spacious for two people!I can’t thank Big Sky Campers enough for making the whole experience so wonderful. They did a fantastic job in helping us plan our route and we got to see so many incredible sights as a result.Alex and Rob were extremely accommodating, they answered any questions we had and gave us a thorough tour of the van before setting off. They were also super reassuring as I hadn’t driven a vintage van before and this extra level of care made the journey that much more rewarding ????Thank you both for such an incredible experience, I will be recommending you to all of my family & friends!!
Had a wonderful trip with Dougal over a long weekend - the van was everything we needed! Really comfortable and cozy. We weren’t completely set on a route but the Big Sky team helped us out with some suggestions of destinations, scenic roads, camper van parks and places to eat and drink. The van was easy to drive and if a hiccup ever came up Rob was always on call. Looking forward to another Big Sky adventure soon!
Had an absolutely amazing 2 week escape with my partner in Duncan. Could not recommend Big Sky enough. Rob & Alex are incredibly friendly and responded to any questions we had over our trip. Definitely the best way to explore Scotland.
We had a lovely 4 night stay in Magnus. Very easy to book, the van comes with everything you need and it’s an easy train ride from Edinburgh to pick up the van with the owners coming to meet you at the station! Have recommended to all our friends and we would definitely book again to see more of picturesque Scotland. Thanks Rob and Alex :)
Brilliant company and lovely people. The van was top and Rob and Alex couldn't have been more helpful. Plus they have dog friendly vans so you don't have to leave the pup at home! Will definitely use again!
Absolutely amazing service from Rob..Camper-van was immaculate and booking process was so easy. The van itself was amazing, easy to drive and soooo comfortable - what a weekend we had with Ruby (van) climbing Ben Nevis. No hesitation in recommending this company. I will absolutely be booking again and again and again! Rob - thank you, fantastic service! Can’t thank you enough!
We have just given back ‘Harry’ who we hired from Rob at Big Sky Campers. We have had a lovely holiday and couldn’t recommend a camper van holiday enough…if you’re looking for campervan hire in Scotland, then Rob is your guy. He was accommodating and friendly from start to finish throughout the whole experience which really made a difference. The campers come equipped with everything you would need which means you can just rock up with your personal belongings and head off without having to worry. Another thing we agreed was lovely was the lack of branding on the campers, travelling around we saw some with lots of massive garish logos all over them, we loved that the camper didn’t bring attention to himself and as novice campers, made us feel more at ease and inconspicuous in situations which were new for us. All in all I would recommend them to anyone and Robs service and kindness certainly makes the business extra special.
Everything was included, no hidden extra costs. Genuine, helpful people who are at the end of a phone if you have any questions about the van whilst you're away. Quick replies to emails. Van was lovely and surpassed my expectations.
My friend and I recently returned from a fantastic roadtrip to Skye, and we hired "Magnus" from Big Sky Campers for the 4 days.Right from the start we could not fault the service in any way, from the initial communications sent, the subsequent follow up's, through to the pick up (having never driven a campervan - Rob explained / demonstrated very thoroughly how everything worked), and finally the hand back....there was not a single hitch along the way.Magnus was brand new and a dream to drive - totally immaculate throughout and very comfortable to sleep in.Rob and Alex could not have been more helpful and just generally absolutely lovely people - and I really appreciated that they have a secure facility to keep your own car in while you are away.I wouldn't think twice about recommending Big Sky Campers to anyone thinking about a roadtrip, we'll definitely be back and already planning our next trip away.

We recently hired Flora for 5 nights from Big Sky Campers. They are a first class company to deal with. In terms of service it was brilliant. We pitched up at their base to have a look at the vans available for hire and George was more than happy to help two 54 year old newbies about to set off in a campervan for the first time. George was extremely friendly , helpful and explained how the rental process worked and showed us around the vans.
A super first impression.
The communications leading up to the hire day were very good and detailed.
On the day we picked up the van we got a full demo of how the van operated etc I’m aware of other companies who just send you a video. We thought this was very important. The van was immaculate when we picked it up.
The van itself had everything you needed for a trip. Cooking facilities, fridge, charging points, bedding, towels.
The van is easy to drive and can be parked in a standard parking space.
We asked a few questions prior to picking the van and always got a prompt response. I got the impression that Rob would try and do whatever he could to ensure his clients had everything they needed to have the best time on their travels,
This was also quite key for us they love dogs and had vans for hire catering for dogs.
All in we had a superb 5 nights and would highly recommend Big Sky Campers,
Paul, Susan and Frankie.

We hired “Bonnie” for a week from Big Sky Campers and would have no hesitation in highly recommending them. From the initial enquiry through to picking up the van, they were on hand to answer all my questions. Pre-pick up information was very clear and on the day of pick up a thorough explanation of the van was given before we left (although we did forgot a crucial piece of information .. totally our fault!) Bonnie was fabulous and we enjoyed every minute of our week with her. The van was well equipped with everything that was needed for our week and had ample storage space for our belonging and supplies. We completed the NC500 anticlockwise and went to Skye, the van was a perfect size for the single track roads.
Nous revenons d’un road trip avec Bonnie et qu’elle fabuleuse expérience ! Nous sommes partis avec notre fille de 3 ans et rien à dire ! BigSkyCamper prévoient tout ce qu’il vous faut pour partir sereinement sans frais supplémentaires. Georges a été super à la passation de Bonnie! Merci, ce voyage en Écosse n’aurait pas été le même sans Bonnie ❤️
My crazy dog & I have just had the MOST AMAZING road trip around NC500 & Skye, all facilitated by the fabulous Brodie, courtesy of Big Sky Campers! Everything was so easy thanks to George & Rob & all of the kit that came with Brodie, making this adventure such an enjoyable one - we will return! Thanks all, it really was the best, Jo & Dixie x
We’ve just come back from the most wonderful week away in Flora! Rob & Alex were absolutely lovely from start to finish, and we didn’t want for anything. We had everything we needed in the van, including bedding & cleaning materials, and Rob took his time to explain how everything worked to us before we set off.
It was such a fab experience travelling Scotland in Flora because she attracts so much attention! We had many a wave, horn honk and flash of lights of appreciation and it made the experience even more special. Would 100% recommend and will definitely hire from Big Sky Campers again, when we’re next ready to brave the temperamental weather of the Highlands… !

I was recommended to go with Big Sky Campers, so glad I did, could not fault the process or anything about my trip. I hired Magnus, automatic, dream to drive, drove to Skye, over to Harris, pitched at Luskentyre beach for three days before heading back to the mainland for a couple of nights. Magnus is very new, super comfy, warm, I just used the bottom bed option, sheet, blanket on top of sheet and duvet, so snug and that was in Oct.
Magnus has all that you need for a really enjoyable trip.
Rob is a delight to deal with, showed me how everything worked, just as well for a novice like me.
Returned Magnus today but already advised Rob of my intention to book soon for next year
I would highly recommend Big Sky Campers, I can't wait to get back into one of their campers and head off once more.....do it, you'll not regret it.

Just returned from an amazing week on the NC500 with Betty, she was amazing and perfect for the small windy roads. Well equipped for the journey and very comfortable. Highly recommend Rob & Big Sky Campers 👍
Have had a fantastic experience with Big Sky Campers, Rob was extremely helpful and quick to respond to emails. Ruby was perfect for our weekend trip for a family of 3 (2 adults / 1 Child) and a dog! Kitted out with everything you would need and spotless, easy to use and drive. Straight forward drop of and pick up. We will certainly be using them again. Thank you for making our weekend adventure perfect!
Highly Recommended Big Sky Campers. Just returned from 5 days doing the NC500 route and managed the full way around. We had Rowan the campervan and what a pleasure he was. Very comfortable and has everything you need for your holiday 👌 Rob was fantastic throughout the process also, from enquiry to booking and beyond. Explained functions of the van before setting out and was happy for us to call if we had any issues whilst away. Great Business Rob, keep up the good standard 👏
We loved our holiday with Big Sky Campers!
Picking up the camper was a breeze and everything was thoroughly explained so we felt very confident driving off!
The camper was spotless and all the equipment was in perfect condition.
Great communication through the whole booking process and very reasonably priced.
Would 100% recommend Big Sky Campers- we had a fantastic holiday!

Big Sky Campers are excellent. very genuine, helpful, amd encouraging with the whole process! We had a fabulous 4 day holiday exploring some of the highlands. The camper was easy to drive, perfectly clean, and fully functioning. it was even stocked with various maps to help you along your way. Definitely the way to go if youre looking for a bit of adventure.
Awesome camper rental! I can just recommend booking with them. Handling and service are nice and personal + all campers are in excellent condition and great fun to go on a tour with in beautiful Scotland. �
Rob and Alex really care for their clients. Great campers, all well kept and clean and tidy.

Amazing people, very attentive, always doing their best to help.
My sister and I rented a Big Sky campervan for 10 nights in October. Rob was so helpful leading up to our rental even offering suggestions on where we might stay, transportation from Edinburgh airport, and other tips that were helpful to our camping in the “off season“. He was very prompt in answering all of our questions regarding our Scottish holiday which made our arrival really smooth. The campervan was very clean, had everything we needed, and was easy to drive. What a bonus having your whole traveling needs contained in a single space with never a worry that you had forgotten something back in a hotel! I highly recommend Big Sky Campers Edinburgh if you are contemplating the adventurous route to seeing Scotland.
We had a wonderful stay in Scotland! Second time that we hired a campervan with big Sky campers. Everything was perfect:very clean, confortable and full equiped! Many thanks to Robert who make you stay very nice.
Un super séjour en Ecosse! C’est le second véhicule que nous louons avec la société Big Sky Campers. Tout est parfait: tres propre, confortable et tout équipé! Un grand merci à Robert qui fait tout son possible pour que notre séjour soit agréable!

we had a great holiday in the Outer Hebrides with a Big Sky Camper over Easter. pick up and drop off was smooth, communications were good and the van itself was well equipped. next time I think we'd upgrade beyond the entry level camper for a better night's sleep but all in all it was great fun!
Today we met Rob! We were visiters in Edinburgh and had problems with our camper van. Just by chance we came to Rob. He is such an helpful and friendly person! Thank you so much for your help. You made our day
My boyfriend and I rented a van for 15 days in May. It was the best holydays of my life! The van was perfect and Rob was really Nice and quick to answer every questions we had! I highly recommend it :) And if I come back in Scotland one day, I will rent again a van from Rob's company. Thank you for every thing Rob :)
My friend and I rented a campervan at the end of October and it was such an amazing experience. The Bongo was fully equipped and offered everything we needed. 10/10 would highly recommend
Had 11 nights in one of Rob's VW camper vans. Had an amazing holiday. Would highly recommend. Rob was very helpful before the trip and gave us some great ideas for places to visit and stay which was great. The collection of the van was quick and easy and when we returned the van our deposit was returned quickly. The van itself was amazing. Very clean with everything we needed. Thanks again Rob.
My son and I are just back from a 4 day trip to Islay in the campervan Orla. this was our first trip in a campervan it was brilliant, certain it wont be our last, Rob was great to deal with very helpful and considerate. would highly recommend the Orla van and Rob's Edinburgh Campervans. We'll be back.
My friends and I had a blast exploring the highlands in the vw camper! Rob is very friendly and helpful, comminication went perfect. The camper itself is in excellent shape and drives easy! I would recommend it to everyone!!
