- A County Clare tour guide is given by "Blackie". He shows us some famous sites and towns including Doolan, the Burren, Ennistymon and its cascades and the surfing in Lahinch. Along the way he meets some of the colourful people that make Ireland a great place to travel to!
My paternal grandmother was from County Clare. I couldn’t be more proud. She was an equestrian and came to the states as a young girl. She spoke of this beautiful landscape and shared tales of old.
Thank you for highlighting my grandmothers home.
My family is from county Clare too and I think we got sent to Australia for stealing those horses 🤣
My grandad was from Clare. He sadly passed last year but I had the chance to travel to his hometown with him when I was 16. Miss you grandpa ❤
I love the Irish music and the beautiful landscapes. I hsve to visit Ireland one day. I can.feel.it in my heart.
I'm from county clare and I take all this for granted but every once in awhile I think wow, Clare's got some beautiful spots!
"Kinda sacred things to the lads at the time" that's probably the best line about history that I've ever heard.
Very Irish! It’s those kinda Irish-isms that made Father Ted 😂
beautiful how heartbreaking it must of been for all those that had to leave during times of struggle.
Thank you for sharing my Dad’s hometown 💚🤍🧡 i miss County Clare 💚🤍🧡
Went to Ireland 2014 Landed in Shannon My family was from County Clare Traveled by car thru County Clare I wanted to meet the local people. Took a day trip by boat out of Doollin to Aran Islands. Met Blackie in a pub in Doolin
How was the trip?
I've dreamed of visiting Ireland since I was a young boy, and after all these years, I'll be there in June. It feels like an eternity away, I can't wait!
BoiseG how was it?
Lol. How was it for real?
My Great Grandpa left Clare for Australia in 1911 so many Aussies with Irish roots,on my bucket list of places,77 Moore street Kilrush was his home ,i wonder what it is now and who lives there and my great greats are buried in Old Shanakyle Cemetery
Thank you sooo much for sharing it with us. I visited County Clare a few weeks ago for a couple of days, and it's simply one of the most beautiful places I've ever been to. Ireland had also been my dream , and Irish people and Clare county made it true. Seeing Ireland again, brings me back to those unique moments ;) Regards from the south of Brazil.
Great video. Thanks for sharing.
My grandfather's grandfather was sent to New York from County Clare during the Famine. Beautiful country.
My Ancestors are from here! We are McInerney! We migrated to America, and Australia in the mid 1800's. Im located in Geelong Australia.
A lot of McInerney's were married to Frawleys
so touching for an excellent video
I'll be in Doolin tomorrow night. Thank you for your tour.
Thank you for sharing with all of us this Informative and beautiful video. I've never been to County Clare. What a cozy little town.
This is where the Legend that the Irish Guy from HITC Sport comes from! What a Guy man 🇮🇪
I need to come here, my ancestors were from this area!

My great great Grandma was born in County Clare. Her name was Margaret Agnes Burke. Born in 1857. I want to go there one day... She came to the US but i'm not sure how old she was when she came over. And my GG Grandpa was born in Belfast.
@@discoverireland sounds grand. Thanks for the nice video.
Don't cut your hair unless you want to. I've seen some Irish travel videos before but just saw this one and one about the burn, and I want to go !! Jeremiah Burns and Katherine McGrath left about 1860. I'm one of their great grandchildren.
Lovely video. I have dreamed of coming to your wonderful country my whole life. Hope to see it for my own eyes but, until then I have enjoyed your tour. Irish folks are kind, and have the most talented musicians/singers in the world and if I may say so, you have beautiful blue eyes.:) Thanks for sharing.
Nice little nutshell of a tour. Great info, neat spots, easy to follow along. Thanks for posting.

My Ancestors Are from County Clare Thankyou For The Tour. ..😀😃😁😉 ..Maree McMahon .🇦🇺🍀 🇦🇺🍀Melbourne AUSTRALIA
Also you should know one if your ancestors was a highly revered figure in France- Patrice de McMahon was a general in French army his earlier family probably arrived there with the 'flight of the wild geese' following the Treaty of Limerick of 1691. Patrice was later a General in the French army and was President of France for a while. Apart from their Co Clare roots Yes no doubt the McMahons have a proud and illustrious past. Check out Clares Dragoons
Love this, I want to be here now
Love me some Ireland.
My McMahan and O’Brien ancestors are from County Clare. I will visit one day!
I'm an old guy living in Limerick next door to Co Clare and can tell you it is a magical place.. it's the place of great traditional music and of gentle people when I go there I seem to lose time.. there's a name for it in the Irish 't'ir na n'og' the land of youth or the place of the fairies' as they say a magical place- you Linda come from extra special place with strong background names.. come when you get the chance
my ancestors the O'Deas are from Clare too. apparently somewhat related and very supportive of the O'Brians.
My ancestors from clare as well a couple went to America and ours to australia where I live
Me too! I understand I have ancestors from this part of Ireland as I am a McBrine. I hope I get to visit someday!
The music in this video reminds me of what can be heard in American Appalachian music. Of course, the migratory influence drives the similarity.
Oh my goodness, how wonderful. My great grandfather Patrick Sheridan lived here in a house called Carasherkin, in 1850, with his wife Nora and 12 children. I have never been there; this County Clare tour is great!
Claire Vernell ..u must go
very well made and Blackie your the man to promote the place. Good Clare voice.
Patsy is a great piece of our heritage. Slan
Careful you dont bump into Father Jack Hackett when you go to that pub...
It looks lovely, I did want to go to Ennis, but an Irish lady said she' been there and it wasn't worth a visit. I still will try Ireland one day, the land my mother came from before settling in grim Manchester.
The Land My Maternal Grandmother also came from, before she settled just down the Road from your Mum, in Liverpool 👍👍
They had real Irish communities some years back, but now most people are second generation. I studied in Liverpool and it does still have that Irish feel, at least it did in the 80's!@@stephensmith4480
My husbands great grandfather had a home here. Would love to take a visit one day. My husband would love it. I believe the home is still in his family.
Great, Visited Cranny & Doolan once,say hi to all,especially Mick Oriordana musician, kenya E.Africa!Nice guys, George!
My mothers family we're the O'Loughlins, "Kings of the Burren". Ennistymon is where my family left from in 1850 because of the famine.
Jason Hunt there is a grave in corcomroe abbey with "O'Loughin, Kings of the Burren" carved on it... have you seen this?
My last name is “O’Loughlin” I’m trying to learn as much as I can about my Family. This has blown my mind. I hope one of you respond! Wow 😊
@@erinsavage5472 Hi Erin. I once had an O'Loughlin site but seems to have disappeared. The O'Loughlin name originated some time in the 900ADs from a single person who was the son of the ruling Lord of Corcomroe. The Irish spelling of it is Uí Lochlainn. When he came to power along with his brother who the O"Connors of Corcomroe come from he ruled over the East of Corcomroe which was also known as the Burren and his brother ruled over the west.
@@jpah8944 Wow, Thank You for writing! I wish you knew or had more information on that “O’Loughlin” site.
From what we have learned Our Family is from Co. Wicklow. I can’t wait to see my Parents at Christmas & read what you just wrote to them! Thank You so very much, Sincerely Erin.

No mention of the cliffs, Bunratty, Quin abbey, Cragganowan, Dromore or Cratloe nature reserves, accessibility & industry through Shannon, the cobbled streets of Ennis and the local monasteries but promote two pubs because that's all the Irish are about drinkin' & music! Promoting Father Ted in a pub instead of travelling to the house where the b-roll was filmed. Terrible tourist film.... shame on you +Discover Ireland
