Day 15 of your road trip in Norway is your departure day. This is your chance to catch a last glimpse of Stavanger 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 Godalen Strand, a serene beach before you head out.

Maximize your last day in Norway and go on a shopping spree in Stavanger’s shopping center, the lively Ostehuset. Browse for souvenirs to remind you of your wonderful journey in Norway. Take one last moment to soak in Norway, and unwind with tea or coffee at a cozy cafe.

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

Enjoy a lovely meal at Leo's Lekeland, a top-rated place to have dinner tonight. Alternatively, if your taste buds call for something different, Sushi San is another top choice with a popular menu.

You’ll then say farewell to Stavanger. 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 Norway!
