If you're up for some more sightseeing, we recommend visiting Saint Pietro Gate, a stunning monument before you head out.
As your final day in Italy unfolds, enjoy a last-minute shopping spree in Perugia's best shopping area. Enjoy finding the perfect gift or keepsake to remind you of your wonderful trip to Italy.
Before you conclude your road trip in Italy, drop by another restaurant for a last chance at a memorable dining experience in Perugia.
Dine in style at Alphaville, a top recommendation for dinner tonight. Or, for a change of pace, Osteria a Priori boasts a menu that's sure to impress.
You’ll then say farewell to Perugia. 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!
