Spectacular views from bustling Edinburgh to the wild, windswept Highlands

See bonny Scotland as you never could, even on the most lavish tour. Thanks to a high-definition, helicopter-mounted camera, you soar effortlessly over Scotland’s historic cities, tranquil villages, rugged highlands, and steel-blue lakes. See the country’s legendary landmarks—the dizzying heights of Edinburgh’s Castle Rock, immaculate greens of the Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrews, mysterious glacial waters of Loch Ness, and many more—from a unique aerial perspective. Chase wild deer across green hills splashed with yellow gorse. Swoop down on coastal villages so close that you can almost taste the sweet, smoky salmon. With a poetic narration and a soundtrack of authentic regional music, Visions of Scotland opens your eyes, ears, and heart to this legendary land.

Includes bonus footage not seen on public television.

Your own private bird's eye view of your favorite spots in Scotland
Like all the other videos in this series, you get a view from a helicoptor of all the major tourist sights in the specified country, in this case, Scotland. Most of us have not flown in a helicoptor over a country. So we all get a view that we cannot get from a walking or driving tour. It's well-done. I received it as a Christmas gift and was not disappointed. I've watched it several times and will watch it many more times in the future.

Amazing Vision!!
an amazing combination of authentic music, poetry, literature and spectacular scenery.
And the narrator is so graceful in describing; the writing is really really good!

What i loved most about it, its been videoed from the helicopter.
which gives you a VERY clear idea on how the country looks like.

Instead of some travel DVDs they show you only the good angle of the country, in Visions of Scotland, you see it ALL untouched beauty!

The names suits it too, its not a travel guide so you will not find traveling tips.

LOVED IT ...

Scotland the Beautiful

Everyone should see Scotland/

absolutely gorgeous video
This is a beautiful and breathtaking video . Scenery was out of this world and I am extremely glad I bought it

A Bonny Good Time
Much like most of you out there I first became acquainted with the `Vision Series' of aerial travelogue features on PBS television. Whenever I came upon one while channel surfing I'd immediately put the remote down and sit back and relax. It wasn't long before I decided these programs were something I'd never tire of watching and needed to be added to my private DVD collection.

Released in '07, `Visions of Scotland' is the sixth high altitude tour in the series following `Visions of ... Greece / Italy / England / France and Germany'. As with the previous journeys the audience is whisked away far above the maddening crowd and daily concerns of life on the ground to view Scotland in all its magnificent natural beauty. Add to the visuals an haunting Celtic and regional soundtrack and soothing narration you'll begin to think you're really there!
