Day 12 of your road trip in Finland is your departure day. This is your chance to catch a last glimpse of Turku 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 Luostarinmäki, an eye-catching museum before you head out.

Explore local shops for souvenirs to remember your trip or find unique gifts for loved ones. Take a break with a cup of coffee or tea while savoring the local vibe in a coffee shop.

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

Dine in style at Pancho Villa Turku, a top recommendation for dinner tonight. Or, for a change of pace, Fazer Café Aurakatu boasts a menu that's sure to impress.

You’ll then say farewell to Turku. 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 Finland!
