Day 11 of your road trip in Finland is your departure day. This is your chance to catch a last glimpse of Turku before saying goodbye to this wonderful destination. If you've still got time left, we recommend doing some last-minute shopping or sightseeing.

If you're up for some more sightseeing, we recommend visiting Luostarinmäki, a standout museum before you head out.

As your final day in Finland unfolds, enjoy a last-minute shopping spree in Turku's best shopping area, Hansa Shopping Centre. Enjoy finding the perfect gift or keepsake to remind you of your wonderful trip to Finland. When you need a break, visit a cafe and relax with a cup of coffee or tea.

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

Treat yourself to a delightful dinner at Pancho Villa Turku, highly recommended for tonight's dining. Or, if you're feeling adventurous, why not try Fazer Café Aurakatu? It's another excellent option with a diverse menu.

You’ll then say farewell to Turku. 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 Finland!
