Day One

• Guests arrive into Dublin airport and are greeted by the VIP Arrival service. Priority disembark of their plane, while they are led to a private lounge with welcome drinks while airport staff collect all luggage and customs comes to them!
• Lunch is served in Ely Bar & Brasserie wine cellars. A restaurant located in the heart of Dublin’s most prominent historic buildings.
• Express check-in to their premium deluxe rooms at the famous Shelbourne Hotel on St. Stephen’s Green.
• Guests enjoyed a panoramic tour of Dublin city followed by a private whiskey tasting in one of Dublin’s oldest whiskey bars, The Palace.
• A private dinner in Gravity at Guinness Storehouse gave guests a full 360-degree view of Dublin city. A private pint-pulling station was set up where guests received a personalised pint glass, branded with their company logo.

Day Two

• Start the day with a sumptuous Irish breakfast, the perfect way to begin what promises to be an exciting day of adventure & discovery!
• Guests are picked up from their hotel in luxury coaches for their transfer to a secret location.
• Guests arrive at Powerscourt Waterfall, where they were greeted by 23 SUV’s and drivers ready to take them on a Discovery Drive challenge through Wicklow!
• Using iPads to navigate, guests completed a series of challenges which included stopping for photo opportunities & pop-up artisan food & drink tastings.
• Our adventure finished at Carton House Hotel, where everyone enjoyed a BBQ lunch with entertainment provided by an exquisite harp & bodhran duo, followed by a falconry demonstration on the hotel grounds. Some free time allowed our guests to relax before the evening event. A convoy of vintage cars arrived at The Shelbourne to escort guests to Christ Church Cathedral where they enjoyed a private tour of the cathedral and ended with a surprise performance from the choir in the Crypt as well as pre-dinner drinks reception.

Now it’s time for the main event! An exclusive evening in Luttrelstown Castle where guests were greeted by the castle butler & maid, (actors of course!) as well as a traditional Irish piper. A concert pianist tickled the keys of the castle’s baby grand piano while guests enjoyed drinks & canapes before a beautiful gala dinner. Irish acapella sensation, The Trinitones, took the stage before we invited guests out to the garden for cigars & liquors. All topped off with a surprise fireworks display which left our guests speechless and amazed.
