Make the most of your final day in Italy by visiting Pescara’s iconic markets and shopping establishments in the buzzing Centro Commerciale Pescara Porta Nuova. Secure the perfect souvenirs for your family and friends back home or buy yourself a remembrance of your amazing experience in Italy.

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

You’ll then say farewell to Pescara. 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 Italy!
