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

Enjoy a lovely meal at Scandic Patria, a top-rated place to have dinner tonight. Alternatively, if your taste buds call for something different, Ravintola Dharahara is another top choice with a popular menu.

You’ll then say farewell to Lappeenranta. 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!
