Day 15 of your road trip in Austria is your departure day. This is your chance to catch a last glimpse of Graz before saying goodbye to this wonderful destination. If you've still got time left, we recommend doing some last-minute shopping or sightseeing.

At the top of the list of places to visit today is Herrengasse, a street that captures the true essence of Graz. Take your time to uncover its best sides and enjoy its proximity to many of the area’s best attractions.

For a shopping spree in Graz, we recommend the lively Citypark. Here, you'll find a range of shops you can browse for some souvenir shopping. Take one last moment to soak in Austria, and unwind with tea or coffee at a cozy cafe.

Before you conclude your road trip in Austria, drop by another restaurant for a last chance at a memorable dining experience in Graz.

Treat yourself to a delightful dinner at Landhauskeller - Mittagessen | Abendessen | Cocktailbar | Hofsaison | Katze Katze - Graz, highly recommended for tonight's dining. Or, if you're feeling adventurous, why not try Restaurant Pronto? It's another excellent option with a diverse menu.

You’ll then say farewell to Graz. Drive to the airport, return your car, and take the opportunity to get some last-minute souvenirs before you board your flight home. We wish you a pleasant journey and hope you leave with many wonderful memories of your road trip in Austria!
