Four Hours by Car, Exteriors Only, and the Deer in Phoenix Park
Four hours of Dublin with a private driver, hotel pickup, and an itinerary you can rearrange as you go. The route takes in Dublin Castle, St Patrick's Cathedral and Christ Church, then the Guinness Storehouse and Kilmainham Gaol, then Phoenix Park, where there are wild deer and the Wellington Monument, and finishes at Trinity College and Grafton Street. What this is, honestly, is a driving tour: the buildings are seen from outside, and admissions are not included anywhere. Kilmainham in particular needs a ticket booked in advance if you want to go in. Some people walk at every stop, others look from the car; the driver works to whichever you prefer. In four hours that is a reasonable trade: more of the city, less time in queues.
