Day 15 of your road trip in Spain is your departure day. This is your chance to catch a last glimpse of Zaragoza 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 San Felipe Square, a noteworthy public square before you head out.
Make the most of your final day in Spain by visiting Zaragoza’s iconic markets and shopping establishments in the buzzing Paseo Independencia. Secure the perfect souvenirs for your family and friends back home or buy yourself a remembrance of your amazing experience in Spain.
Before you conclude your road trip in Spain, drop by another restaurant for a last chance at a memorable dining experience in Zaragoza.
You’ll then say farewell to Zaragoza. 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!
