Begin your adventure at St. Nicholas Stairway. This is a curiosity-inducing street you should not miss.

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

Treat yourself to a delicious dinner at Makina, an excellent option for tonight's dining. Looking for something different? AGKURA TAVERNA offers a tantalizing alternative with its diverse menu. And don’t miss Kafeteria "Theatraki" | Patra.

You’ll then say farewell to Patras. 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 Greece!
