Maximize your last day in Romania and go on a shopping spree in Timișoara’s shopping center, the lively Iulius Town. Browse for souvenirs to remind you of your wonderful journey in Romania.

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

You’ll then say farewell to Timișoara. 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 Romania!
