Have a good night excursion

Have a good night excursion
 
Situation:

After dinner with two of my friends, who have just told me they are going to do some shopping/hang around street pubs etc., I accompany them to the door. Apart from saying good bye, what should I say? Would Britons/Americans say these?:

1. Good night!
2. Have a good night excursion! Good bye!
3. Have a good night trip! Good bye!

In the US we typically don't use either "trip" or "excursion" to name the act of visiting a commercial/entertainment district for shopping or a bar/pub crawl.

In the circumstance you describe, I would most likely say something like:

a. Have a good time! Good night!
b. Enjoy yourselves! Good night!
c. Enjoy the rest of the evening! Good night!
