Day 14 of your road trip in Bulgaria is your departure day. This is your chance to catch a last glimpse of Burgas 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 The Sea Garden, a romantic park before you head out.

Maximize your last day in Bulgaria and go on a shopping spree in Burgas’s shopping center, the lively Aleksandrovska Street. Browse for souvenirs to remind you of your wonderful journey in Bulgaria. Discover boutiques with stylish fashion choices to upgrade your wardrobe. Take one last moment to soak in Bulgaria, and unwind with tea or coffee at a cozy cafe.

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

Treat yourself to a delightful dinner at Gracia Pizzeria, highly recommended for tonight's dining. Or, if you're feeling adventurous, why not try JaV-KA food bar? It's another excellent option with a diverse menu.

You’ll then say farewell to Burgas. 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 Bulgaria!
