Day 13 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.

One of the best things to do on your last day is to explore 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.

Explore local shops for souvenirs to remember your trip or find unique gifts for loved ones. Take a break with a cup of coffee or tea while savoring the local vibe in a coffee shop.

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

If you're in the mood for something new, try Restaurant Pronto, another premier location with a delectable 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!
