Day 15 of your road trip in Spain is your departure day. This is your chance to catch a last glimpse of Pamplona 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 Taconera. This up-and-coming park is a popular place to see in the city.
On your last day in Spain, take time to indulge in shopping at Pamplona’s popular marketplace. Look for keepsakes or souvenirs to remind you of your trip.
Before you conclude your road trip in Spain, drop by another restaurant for a last chance at a memorable dining experience in Pamplona.
Treat yourself to a delightful dinner at Hamabi Restaurante, highly recommended for tonight's dining. Or, if you're feeling adventurous, why not try Restaurante Kabo? It's another excellent option with a diverse menu.
You’ll then say farewell to Pamplona. 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 Spain!
