Day 15 of your road trip in Romania is your departure day. This is your chance to catch a last glimpse of Iași 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 Anastasie Fătu Botanical Garden. This popular botanical garden is a popular place to see in the city.
On your last day in Romania, take time to indulge in shopping at Iași’s popular marketplace, Iulius Town Iași. Look for keepsakes or souvenirs to remind you of your trip.
Before you conclude your road trip in Romania, drop by another restaurant for a last chance at a memorable dining experience in Iași.
Enjoy a lovely meal at Oscar, a top-rated place to have dinner tonight. Alternatively, if your taste buds call for something different, Hotel Bellaria is another top choice with a popular menu.
You’ll then say farewell to Iași. 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!
