Doolin - Designated Tourism Destination of Excellence by Fáilte Ireland in 2019
Doolin, one of Ireland’s most loved visitor destinations, which is widely regarded as ‘the home of Irish music’, has become the first Irish village to be awarded Fáilte Ireland’s Destination Award for Excellence in Customer Service. To achieve the Award, tourism businesses in Doolin undertook Fáilte Ireland’s Accredited Service Excellence Programme with nearly 120 local tourism frontline staff across 41 local businesses completing a dedicated course of customer care training. ‘Meet the Locals’ captures the very essence of why these local family-run businesses are gaining recognition for their customer service and warm, and welcoming nature.
About Doolin:
Located on the edge of the historic Burren in northwest County Clare, along Ireland’s Wild Atlantic Way, and within easy reach of the majestic Cliffs of Moher and the glorious Aran Islands, Doolin’s dramatic landscape and unrivalled scenery are what you might expect to see in an epic Hollywood movie. Luckily enough, Doolin is as real as it gets. As well as a great base for exploring the region, Doolin is widely regarded as the home of traditional Irish music, with plenty of music and events to experience every night in the local pubs and venues throughout the village - ‘craic agus ceol’ is aplenty in this Irish coastal village. Take a clifftop walk, breathing in the crisp, salty Atlantic air while appreciating the beautiful wildflowers, explore the rugged landscape where land and sea collide, or embark on an Atlantic cruise to appreciate the unique coastline from a different perspective.
The village itself is a vibrant place full of characters, stories and experiences, and is home to some of the region’s best accommodation, eateries, activities, local craft shops, and of course, warm welcomes.

Ireland - The Burren Tour
Fantastic tour in Ireland - The Burren. This area of Ireland must be visited during a trip to the Emerald Isle. Through the barren landscape stone is believed to be on the moon. There are many attractions in the Burren - a beautiful nature, unique view of the surroundings. A must is also a stop at Poulnabrone Dolmen. The huge megalithic tomb, whose age is estimated at more than 4000 years, shows with what magnificence of the prehistoric inhabitants of the Burren buried their leader.
Auf einer Mietwagen Rundreise durch Irland sollten auf jeden Fall „The Burren besucht werden. In dieser interessanten und beeindruckenden Gegend wird der Urlaub zu einem unvergesslichen Erlebnis in Irland. Es gibt viele Highlights zu entdecken, so z.B. das gewaltige Megalithgrab „Poulnabrone Dolmen. Dieses über 4000 Jahre alte Grab verdeutlicht, wie die Ureinwohner der Burren ihre Stammesführer begruben.

Ireland Vlog || Cliffs of Moher, Doolin Cave, The Burren and Stone Circle
Last weekend I flew over to Ireland to meet up with a few friends and spend a few days seeing some of the country. I flew into Dublin, where we hired a car and drove over to the west coast to County Clare. We stayed in a lovely AirBnB house near Spanish Point and took day trips out to see the sights nearby. As we only had 3 days it was a short but spectacular trip and I can’t wait to visit Ireland again.
Places we visited:
Spanish Point (sunset)
Cliffs of Moher
Doolin Cave
The Burren/Poulnabrone
Lough Gur Stone circle
Also a big thanks to Thomas for letting me borrow his GoPro when my camera battery died.

The Burren, County Clare Ireland, home of the Cliffs of Moher, Doolin, Lahinch, and Ballyvaughan
The Burren is one of Europe's most unusual geological environments. Home to the Cliffs of Moher, Doolin, Lisdoonvarna, Lahinch, Ennistymon and a number of other towns, The Burren is a stark and beautiful place to visit.
Wild Ireland: The Burren in Spring, County Clare, Ireland
From the Irish 'Boíreann' meaning a rocky place, the rolling hills of the Burren are composed of limestone pavements criss-crossed and gouged by fissures called grykes, leaving clints - raised, slab-like flat areas. The limestone, laid down in a shallow tropical sea in the Lower Carboniferous some 350 million years ago, has been shaped by episodes of glaciation, most recently during the last Ice Age. Covering roughly 360 square kilometres, parts of this karst landscape lie in one of Ireland's six national parks. The Burren boasts the most extensive area of limestone pavement in Europe, harbours a unique floral diversity with Arctic, Mediterranean and Alpine flowers blooming side by side, and is one of the finest examples of a glacio-karst landscape in the world.
The rocky landscape that we see today is not just the result of glacial erosion and natural weathering, but also 6,000 years of agricultural activity. The Burren has been settled since the Mesolithic and boasts a cornucopia of archaeological monuments from the stone walled field systems and megalithic structures of the Neolithic, including the well preserved portal dolmen at Poulnabrone, to later Bronze Age settlements, Iron Age hill forts and Medieval churches. A landscape rich in both nature and lore, the Burren and Cliffs of Moher Geopark, managed by Clare County Council, is a member of the UNESCO Global Geoparks Network.
Walkers will be amply rewarded by the extraordinary preservation of natural and cultural heritage; the extent of the limestone pavement with its sculpted surfaces, cliffs and whorls; shady narrow country lanes lined with hazel scrub; reed fringed aquamarine turloughs and dramatic views of the wave washed Wild Atlantic Way coastline that includes the famous Cliffs of Moher. The Burren in spring is the very stuff of dreams as the landscape is literally misty with flowers.
We consider the Burren in County Clare, to be Ireland's most unusual, striking and memorable landscape. It is our favourite part of this island. Featuring panoramas, time-lapse and medium close-up shots of the various flowers, our footage, to make the fourth in our 'Wild Ireland' series, was captured in 4K over three visits from early-May to mid-June, when the flora is at its very best. Enjoy!
