Day 14 of your road trip in France is your departure day. This is your chance to catch a last glimpse of Brest 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, begin at Us Naval Monument At Brest. This underrated monument is a popular place to see in the city.

On your last day in France, take time to indulge in shopping at Brest’s popular marketplace, La Galerie Géant Brest. Look for keepsakes or souvenirs to remind you of your trip.

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

If you're in the mood for something new, try Les Maraichers, another premier location with a delectable menu.

You’ll then say farewell to Brest. 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 France!
