We have one day to see sights along the way between the Dublin airport and Adare. We plan to leave Dublin airport with rental car by 9am and need to be in Adare by 6pm. Any votes for Gardens of Powerscourt, Glendalough, Kilkenny, Rock of Cashel...???
As background, we're traveling at the end of August. This is our first (and sadly very short) trip to Ireland. We are spending two days in Dublin first and then three days in Adare for a wedding. We want to see as much as possible, but at a comfortable and enjoyable pace. Hence we need to make some choices. Thanks in advance for your ideas and recommendations!
