If you're up for some more sightseeing, begin at Kalniečių Parkas. This increasingly popular park is a popular place to see in the city.
On your last day in Lithuania, take time to indulge in shopping at Kaunas’s popular marketplace, Laisvės alėja. Look for keepsakes or souvenirs to remind you of your trip. Wrap up your shopping with a drink and some pastries at a cozy cafe.
Before you conclude your road trip in Lithuania, drop by another restaurant for a last chance at a memorable dining experience in Kaunas.
Treat yourself to a delightful dinner at Avilys, highly recommended for tonight's dining. Or, if you're feeling adventurous, why not try Casa della Pasta? It's another excellent option with a diverse menu.
You’ll then say farewell to Kaunas. 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 Lithuania!
