I went in 2023 for a week with my husband and in-laws. In Dublin, we went to Trinity College, where we did a walking tour of the grounds and the surrounding area, and got to see the Book of Kells and the Long Library (the latter is being renovated, I believe, but should still be open, even though there might not be any books right now, lol).
We spent a few days in Killarney and Galway, as well. In Killarney you can do a bus tour of the Ring of Kerry. They hit quite a few spots for picture taking, lunch, etc. We also did one to the Cliffs of Moher, which is definitely a must-see if they have time. What a view! And puffins! (My sister-in-law was a bit obsessed, hehe).
I don't know if they want to rent a car, but we took taxis and the Irish Rail and got around pretty well. The Irish Rail was cool because you didn't have to worry about consulting maps, and most folks were happy to chat if you wanted to do so. We got some nice restaurant recs that way!
