Day 15 of your road trip in France is your departure day. This is your chance to catch a last glimpse of Tours 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, begin at Collégiale Saint Martin Et Tour Charlemagne. This worthwhile church is a popular place to see in the city.
Maximize your last day in France and go on a shopping spree in Tours’s shopping center, the lively Centre Commercial Les Atlantes. Browse for souvenirs to remind you of your wonderful journey in France.
Before you conclude your road trip in France, drop by another restaurant for a last chance at a memorable dining experience in Tours.
You’ll then say farewell to Tours. 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 France!
