How much does it cost to rent a campervan? What is included in that cost? It varies from outfit to outfit, but I go and visit Highland Auto Campers at Muir of Ord near Inverness in Scotland to see what they include in the hire of their Auto Campers vans. If you’re looking for a camper van for hire in Scotland, do look them up on https://www.highlandautocampers.co.uk/ In this video I show you what to expect when renting a campervan. I also ask how much does it cost to rent a campervan for the weekend, and you’ll be surprised that it’s not as expensive as you might think. To see my video with a FULL REVIEW of the Auto Campers MRV (similar to the vans here) please see https://youtu.be/RaKtXJEHKrQ To check out my ‘how to’ video about driving in Scotland, and how to prepare for driving your campervan in Scotland, please see my video from the Series ‘How to Hebrides’ that covers all you will need to know: https://youtu.be/U4pm8BjzLCo My equipment is as follows (Amazon Affiliate Links): MAIN VLOGGING CAMERA: Canon G7X – https://amzn.to/2IjdWon (most of this vlog was shot on this camera) DEAD MOUSE FOR CANON G7X: Micromuff skinny wind muffler (currently unavailable on Amazon) SMART PHONE: iPhone 7+ – https://amzn.to/2DQ12c1 WINDSCREEN SUCTION MOUNT: https://amzn.to/2GPJH6F MAIN CAMERA: Sony A7Sii – Now discontinued so check out https://amzn.to/2DNljil ACTION CAMERA: Sony FDR-X3000 with waterproof housing – https://amzn.to/2DMtriY DRONE: DJI Mavic Pro – https://amzn.to/2V2x0Zq VOICEOVER MICROPHONE: Rode NT-USB – https://amzn.to/2FZacV8 TABLE TOP TRIPOD: Neewer – https://amzn.to/2V3iS1U LAVALIER (LAPEL) MICROPHONE: Boya BY-M1 – https://amzn.to/2GqT3pi LED LIGHT: Neewer dimmable on-camera LED light – https://amzn.to/2GvJupg AUDIO RECORDER: Zoom H4n – https://amzn.to/2S8izBk WIND MUFFLER FOR SOUND RECORDER: https://amzn.to/2DPV62J CARBON FIBRE VIDEO TRIPOD: Calumet legs (discontinued) with Manfrotto head.

I shot this video in June… oh what I’d give to be back in Scotland right now!
It’s a very very nice video. It’s my homeland but I’ve never been there since my parents moved out of country when I was born I hope to get back maybe when I retire and all our relatives that soundly are getting older and I don’t know the younger generation we’re so disengaged. So unfortunately my siblings and my children feel American and not Scottish at all
How great it can be! When do we leave?
Great way to try out a camper van without having to purchase one.
Just had a wet week in Edinburgh ๐๐still had a great time ๐๐๐
@Ann inGG Go back as soon as you can you won’t regret it
My ex father-in-law wished he’d gone up to Aberdeen much earlier in life
His relatives were so welcoming
Mr Ditton sir, can I ask as question relating to the Adria Supreme SLB please, you said in your video that the bedroom was gloomy because of the air con unit which I could see from the video itself but can I ask do you think albeit not from your travels in chilly Scotland but do you think the use of the air con unit might outweigh the gloominess for normal summer months in the UK and Europe? Best regards and keep up the excellent work from one of many of your subscribers
Sir? Have I been knighted by the Queen? ;@) (But it’s far more polite than ‘oi, mush!) ย It’s a personal thing David… I think as summers get hotter, and if you plan on spending them in the South of England or further South in Europe, then Aircon would probably be a Godsend. Not quite so useful in the Hebrides!
@Andrew Ditton My mother always taught me manners cost nothing and I am very grateful for the response even if it I put it on the wrong video! ๐ Much appreciated Mr Ditton, one last question will you be doing a review of the Grand Cali 680 any time soon? I do hope so would love to hear what you think as I am sort of torn between the Adria and the 4 motion VW. Again maybe you feel that 4×4 is a waste of money? have you wished you had it when doing your trips and wild camping? Many Thanks David
A fully equipped van to rent. That’s a great opportunity if you’re traveling there by plane and cannot bring all the stuff with you. Fair enough pricing. And the service sounds really great. Wish them all the best for their business. They seem very friendly.
Very nice. ยฃ120/night June to Sept.
What lovely people
Great company!
Ha ha ! last year the warden at Culloden said that she had seen the dolphins at Chanonry point and they had been there for the last few nights. Three hours later and cup of tea getting cold nothing . So even pretending I was going to leave whilst looking over my shoulder, not even a fin. So Dougal my dear dog it was not just you.
Kind wishes Pamela
You are so helpful… ๐๐
value for money
Nice well informed video,I love the whole idea of camper vans,Iโve done one or two conversions in the past,on completion of my first,wich was a high top long wheel base transit,the day after I finished,we went to the Isle of Skye,such a wonderful place,had plenty of fishing,cooking them straight from the sea,hiking and climbing the Cullen hills,out of this world mountain range,with fantastic views,the interior of the van was the furnishings from an old caravan,I paid 150 for it and stripped it myself,the cooker water pump heater all worked fine,well as of next week we are moving to Aberdeen,and I canโt wait,happy camping chaps,๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ๐๐๐
Great Stuff!
alot of anti English in Scotland
Looks fantastic my wife wants to do the west highland way and this looks like the ideal transport and sleeping arrangement definitely on our to do list
That look like some great camper vans for a nice price. Nice informative video too.
Thanks Chris!
Nice video but ford van are not reliable.
Ha! On their website it is ยฃ120 per night for a minimum of 3 nights. A big, big difference compared to the prices stated in the video … We won’t be hiring. – Very misleading…
Now as I am limited to driving only automatic gearbox vehicles, do either of these have what I may need? Obviously due to the circumstances I am not looking for immediate vacation time but hopefully later in the year possibly?
Do you know which company made the conversion of those vans, especially the top roof? Thanks
Check out the link in the description for a full review of the van along with the convertor. Cheers!
We just rented a camper van as this for a trip to ะกornwall..anyone knows if you get all this included there too/? Or is this up to the prson who rents it to you ?
It’s down to the individual company, so do check first!
Didnโt hear if the van is stick or automatic for us from the states.
Seems like it’d be inconvenient without a toilet
