A tour like no other...to make you think...to stir the emotions...to make you smile!

Doagh Famine Village is one of Ireland’s most unique and popular tourist attractions, visited by thousands of people from all over the world every year.

Our guided tours will take you on a journey through life in Ireland in our local community, showing you how families learned to survive and adapt as society evolved from the Great Famine in the 1840s to the present day.

A combination of informative story telling and life-sized exhibits provides a thought-provoking and at times humorous look at Irish life.

You can also taste traditional foraged coastal foods and sample some local Poitín!

All of this is included as part of your tour along with your tea/coffee and snack.

A great way to spend your time when visiting Donegal!

Visitor Experiences

   Such an interesting tour! I had a phenomenal time with my boyfriend and his mum. With our tickets we got a free ticket for a drink and cake which is a lovely touch. You can have that before or after your tour and enjoy the views!

   A beautiful place! The tour guide for our group actually lived in one of the homes here! It was really interesting, feels like almost all of Ireland’s recent history of the past 100-300 years is on display.

 Amazing beautiful place. The tour is so informative and Irish humour alongside the serious parts make your visit so enjoyable. The scenery is breathtaking…it’s heaven on earth!

  We had a wonderful tour guide. Very realistic and brings one back to a different time and place. Truly felt authentic. So happy we incorporated this stop on our itinerary! Tasting Irish potato whiskey was a bonus!
