Private Jet To Dublin
Dublin is a city that dwells in history. Ancient in its foundations but full of modern ambitions, it has a cultural gravity that few capitals in Europe can rival. This is a place where there is a medieval castle within reach of a Michelin-star dining room, where the legacies of Nobel Laureates are woven into the very fabric of the streets, and where the warmth of Irish hospitality, genuine, unaffected, and entirely its own, has a way of charming even those used to the finest the world has to offer.
Dublin is best experienced in private, luxury style. A private jet charter with Challenge Jet Charter makes sure of that. There are no terminals to navigate, no connections to deal with, and no unnecessary hours given over to the demands of commercial aviation.

Things To Do in Dublin
Experiences & Privilege of Private Access
For those who want to participate in Ireland’s equestrian culture at its top level, the Curragh in County Kildare, which is Ireland’s most storied thoroughbred racing venue, is thirty minutes from Dublin by helicopter. Challenge Jet Charter can arrange a private rotary to get you to the city, paddock access, introductions to the principal trainers and bloodstock agents who make up Irish flat racing, for the really die-hard, private viewings of yearlings by the Coolmore Stud or Godolphin’s Irish operation can be arranged, allowing one a rare and special insight into the world where the best assets of the sport are bred and prepared. If there is a race meeting at the time of your visit, a reserved private box and a personal raceday host complete the experience.
Ireland’s links golf is generally considered to be the best in the world, and Dublin puts you within striking distance of courses that figure on every golfer’s private list. Portmarnock Golf Club, fifteen minutes from the city, is one of the great championship links; The Island Golf Club, reachable by private ferry across the Malahide Estuary, presents an experience of almost complete seclusion.
CULTURE, LITERATURE & ARTS
Dublin’s literary heritage is still alive and growing. The city produced Beckett, Wilde, Shaw, Yeats, Joyce, and Heaney: a concentration of genius that remains almost inexplicable. The area where Wilde lived as a boy, Merrion Square, retains the slow-paced feel and Georgian city of the past. For those who want to go deeper, private literary walking tours are organized on an exclusive basis.
The National Gallery of Ireland on Merrion Square has a permanent collection of outstanding quality, with a particular strength in Irish and Dutch Golden Age painting. The Caravaggio alone is worth the visit. A private tour with a curator can be arranged to allow access to works and conservation areas not open to the general public. The Irish Museum of Modern Art at the Royal Hospital Kilmainham, one of the finest of 17th-century buildings in Ireland, presents exhibitions that stand comparison with the best of what’s on show in London, Paris, and Basel at any given moment.
WINE AND DINE
Dublin’s culinary landscape has undergone a true transformation, and today the city is on the international dining circuit, attracting serious attention. Patrick Guilbaud at the Merrion Hotel has two Michelin stars and is one of the greatest restaurants in Europe, considered a masterful dining experience built on a foundation of impeccable Irish produce, classical French discipline, and a cellar of exceptional depth. Chapter One on Parnell Square, which is one-starred and considered by many to be one of the most accomplished restaurants in the country, brings a poetic sense to Irish ingredients.
No visit to Dublin is complete without its drinks culture. The Guinness Storehouse, housed in the original St. James’s Gate fermentation building, is worth more than its reputation; a private, exclusive experience, including a table reserved at the Gravity Bar with its sweeping panoramic views across the city, can be arranged separately. For whiskey, the Roe & Co Distillery and The Teeling Whiskey Distillery in the Liberties both offer private whiskey tastings with the master distillers; this gives access to single-cask and cask-strength expressions that will not be found on the open market.

Places To Stay In Dublin
The Merrion Hotel
The Merrion is by some margin the best hotel in Dublin. Four restored Georgian townhouses front onto Merrion Street Upper, and an original art collection which would put many public galleries to shame; the corridors alone are adorned with works by Yeats, Jack B. Yeats’s brother, and an exceptional Picasso. The Garden Wing rooms overlook two acres of private walled gardens, impeccably maintained. The spa, the pool, and Patrick Guilbaud on the ground floor complete a package that means leaving the premises almost seems a little unnecessary.
The Shelbourne
The Shelbourne has served as Dublin’s social headquarters since 1824. Its location on St. Stephen’s Green, therefore, places it at the literal and figurative centre of the city. One of its suites was where the Irish Constitution was drafted. The Lord Mayor’s Lounge is an afternoon tea served in the grand tradition, and the No. 27 Bar is where the business and political worlds of Dublin have always converged. Rooms have been extensively renovated whilst maintaining the high-ceilinged, plasterwork grandeur that has made the hotel’s reputation in the first place.
The Westbury
The Westbury sits on Grafton Street with the kind of confidence that comes from having attracted discriminating visitors for decades. The Gallery lounge on the mezzanine level is the perfect place for discreet meetings over very good cocktails, with art on every wall and a view out into the shopping street below. Rooms are very spacious and quietly luxurious, and cater to a clientele that appreciates understatement. The Balfes restaurant and bar at street level is a sure win for anything from a business breakfast to a late dinner after a show.
