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!

A friend of mine and I went on a trip with Big Sky Camper's "Mac", the jeep wrangler 4x4, for 4 nights into the Scottish Highlands.
It was one of the best experiences I've ever had and the service, communication and flexibility of Big Sky campers was the reason for this!

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.read more
