Day 14 of your relaxed road trip in Denmark is your departure day. If you’re flying home, return your rental car with time to spare. For a stress-free farewell, book a later flight and enjoy a final, relaxed day in Aalborg.

For a shopping spree in Aalborg, we recommend the lively Bispensgade. Here, you'll find a range of shops you can browse for some souvenir shopping. Discover boutiques with stylish fashion choices to upgrade your wardrobe. Take one last moment to soak in Denmark, and unwind with tea or coffee at a cozy cafe.

If you're up for some more sightseeing, begin at Aalborghus Castle. This often recommended castle is a hotspot among locals.

Over a good meal, take a moment to unwind and reflect on the past 14 days of your relaxed road trip. Savor one last traditional dish in Aalborg, or keep it light with a quick bite before you go.

Treat yourself to a delightful dinner at The Wharf, highly recommended for tonight's dining. Or, if you're feeling adventurous, why not try Restaurant Sanya? It's another excellent option with a diverse menu.

Give yourself enough time to wave goodbye to Aalborg and begin your journey home. The unforgettable experiences you’ve collected along your 14-day relaxed road trip in Denmark is a story you will tell for the rest of your life.
