Sir John Carr (1772-1832) was an English barrister and (travel) writer. Carr, from Devonshire, was called to the bar at the Middle Temple, but for health reasons began to travel.

Accounts of his journeys around Europe were popular for their light style. Shortly after the publication of The Stranger in Ireland (1806), Carr was knighted by John Russell, 6th Duke of Bedford, then Lord Lieutenant of Ireland.

In 1807 his Tour in Ireland was made the subject of a spoof by Edward Dubois, entitled My Pocket Book, or Hints for a Ryghte Merrie and Conceited Tour. The publishers were prosecuted in 1809, but Carr was nonsuited.

Lord Byron met Carr at Cadiz, and referred to him in some suppressed stanzas of Childe Harold as "Green Erin's knight and Europe's wandering star". .
