KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Salzburg
- While you can easily navigate the hometown of Mozart on foot or with the help of public transportation, a rental car is essential to explore the Austrian countryside or other picturesque villages near Salzburg. Take the scenic ride to Austria’s Lake Region, or check out the world’s largest ice caves in Werfen. Salzburg is also conveniently located near the German border.
- All the major rental car companies can be found at Salzburg Airport W. A. Mozart (SZG), the second largest international airport in Austria. The car rental counters are located opposite the main terminal, on the ground floor of the car park, which is accessed via a covered walkway. Make sure to obtain the Highway Toll Sticker (Vignette) from your car rental agency to avoid fines.
- While traffic in the city center is a little busy at times, drivers in Salzburg are typically well-behaved. Avoid taking the car to the Old Town area, as it features many narrow roads, one-way streets, restricted areas, and unpredictable pedestrians. Outside of that area, Salzburg is very easy to navigate, and the roads in and around the city are in great condition.
- Just like any busy central European city, Salzburg experiences some heavy traffic during peak hour, particularly between 7 a.m. and 9 a.m. and then again between 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. On Fridays the roads get busier starting at 3 p.m. However, both the city’s roads and surrounding highways move constantly, even in peak hour. The A1 between Vienna and Salzburg also gets busier on weekends.
- 25% of our users found rental cars in Salzburg for ₹ 7,197 or less
- Book your rental car in Salzburg at least 7 days before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Off-airport rental car locations in Salzburg are around 115% more expensive than airport locations on average
- Compact rental cars in Salzburg are around 22% cheaper than other car types, on average

Pros:
I rented an intermediate Ford Focus or similar from the airport and was offered the BMW Mini Cooper on arrival, which turned out to be really fun to drive and comfortable. The check in process was easy. We were not gouged an exorbitant amount for required insurance. We returned the car right at closing and they let us leave the car for them to process in the morning. We were charged the correct amount without any problems.Cons:
Everything was great.9.6 Wonderful
