Burren Exposure

Reviewed By swtraveler15 - Springfield, United States

We have traveled through the Burren twice during our trips to Ireland and they are simply stunning to see. Totally unlike anything you have ever seen. We hope to make another trip to see them during the spring or summer months when they apparently have wildflowers scattered among the area. Truly lovely area to experience

The Clare Museum

Reviewed By peterwT8798QB

We visited the Clare Museum as part of a history project. We had a class of 12 year olds who were researching Clare and the War of Independence. Curator John Rattigan met us and gave us a very interesting talk. John also showed us artefacts and autograph books from the period. The pupils were captivated. We were very warmly welcomed by the Museum staff who were patient and answered all our questions. The children were captivated by the displays which are laid out in a very accessible manner. Clare Museum is a wonderful facility and we will be making a return visit in the near future. Highly recommended.
