Day 15 of your road trip in Germany is your departure day. This is your chance to catch a last glimpse of Stuttgart 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 Schloßplatz, a romantic public square before you head out.
As your final day in Germany unfolds, enjoy a last-minute shopping spree in Stuttgart's best shopping area, Breuninger. Enjoy finding the perfect gift or keepsake to remind you of your wonderful trip to Germany. Explore high-end stores offering an exquisite selection of luxury items.
Before you conclude your road trip in Germany, drop by another restaurant for a last chance at a memorable dining experience in Stuttgart.
If you're eager to try something different, consider Paulaner am alten Postplatz, another top spot with a tantalizing menu.
You’ll then say farewell to Stuttgart. 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 Germany!
