In order to rent a car in Austria, you may need such a set of documents: an international driver's license, and it is good if they were issued a year ago or more. Often, ordinary domestic rights are quite enough for agencies, while it is important that the name and surname be spelled out in the Latin alphabet. In large international companies, this issue is more principled.
Car rental conditions
At the same time, you must provide your credit card details to the rental company. Sometimes you need the data of two cards at once, for example, when renting a luxury car. The most interesting thing in this situation is that a classic debit card may not work. The driver must be over 21 years old. If we are talking about renting an expensive car, then the age must be at least 25 years.
The rental price immediately includes:
- Insurance;
- Road taxes;
- Unlimited mileage;
- Airport taxes.
You have to check with each rental office separately about the deposit. But it is always required in some form. But car rental in Austria will help you not to be constantly tied to the same place.
Where to go in Austria
For many, Austria is, first of all, an excellent active holiday in ski resorts. At the same time, lovers of classical music come here, because it was this land that gave the world wonderful composers, the most famous of whom is Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. In addition, there is wonderful nature here: magnificent lakes, mountain landscapes, green valleys and healing springs. And to see all this at once, you will undoubtedly need a car. Just keep in mind that there are toll roads in the country. But besides this, there are even more expensive, so-called panoramic roads. These are trails from which you can observe local beauties, stop, take pictures. Traveling through them will be exciting and unforgettable, but it will not be so cheap.
Austria is a small country, and if you have a car, you can go around not only Vienna, but also go to Salzburg or Baden, whose parks deserve special attention. But few foreigners know that there is a small old town of Klosterneuburg near the Austrian capital. Therefore, having visited this place, you will be surprised to learn that monks have been making wine here for over 900 years. The local wine school is considered one of the oldest in all of Europe.
