Have you ever been to the lake district in winter? I want to take my parents there and not bother too much. We will pick up and return the car at Vienna train station. We want to spend three days playing around the lake district and preferably stay in one or two hotels. Can anyone help recommend a beautiful route to take in winter ? Austria Q&A
Inquiry: Can I rent a car from Hungary and drive through Austria, Slovenia, Croatia, and then enter Bosnia and Herzegovina and Serbia in one go? How do I pass through the border? What are the requirements for crossing from a Schengen country to a non-Schengen country ? Austria Q&A
Okay, thank you. Mainly, we have to give the driver who picks us up 25 euros as soon as we get off the plane. We're afraid that if we only have a 500 euro note, they definitely can't accept it. If we can pick it up at Beijing or the local airport, it's fine. I don't know if there is one or not ? Austria Q&A
I would like to ask my friends, I am going to Austria, Hungary, and Germany in May. I want to buy a SIM card that can make phone calls and access the internet in these four countries. Which one is better ? Austria Q&A
Hi all my friends and relatives, I also want to ask... Do I need to apply for driving in Austria as well? Or is one person enough? And I heard that adding a person will cost more. How much is it approximately? Do you have any friends who know about this ? Austria Q&A
Folks, I have one more question. Regarding right of way, unless there are traffic lights or signs indicating right of way, the vehicle coming from the right shall have the right of way, regardless of the width of the road. How should this sentence be understood ? Austria Q&A
What is better, to pick up the car at Vienna airport and return it in Salzburg, or vice versa? Please help with advice from someone with experience. Because the train station is in the city center, I am afraid of traffic jams, and I am not sure if the airport is convenient either. I just want to drive around the lake for 3 days, pick up the car in Vienna, and return it in Salzburg ? Austria Q&A
I would like to ask: when renting a car in Germany and returning it to the original location, will there be a cross-border fee if I travel to Austria, Switzerland, or the Netherlands? How is this fee charged? I have noticed that some car rental companies charge this fee while others do not, and some charge it per trip while others charge it per day. Thank you ? Austria Q&A
If you change cities, the biggest parking fee expense is basically parking at the hotel overnight, so you need to check in advance whether the hotel you find provides free parking. Because during the day I basically don't drive out, public transportation is convenient and I don't have to worry about parking fees. The only time the parking fee was very expensive was in Salzburg, and also Hallstatt. The few places where I parked in other lakes were all free ? Austria Q&A
Croatia, first the road is built very well, second, like my big Celestial Empire, no shame, no one-time charge with the nature of a monthly ticket, toll stations along the way charge according to the mileage. The expressway toll booths in Croatia are as dense as those in my big Celestial Empire. Croatia plays it the same way as China, and the exchange rate of kuna is also closest to RMB ? Austria Q&A
Today, when we returned the car to Sixt in Salzburg, we asked the gas station attendant which level of car wash was needed when returning the car. He told us that the package of 6.99 euros was enough. When we arrived at Sixt, it was already after 12 o'clock and the staff had gone home. We had arrived 10 minutes early to greet the staff, but they said that they would not accept the car if it was late, and that they would collect it the next day. We could only listen to them across the road and put the key in the box ? Austria Q&A
It's really annoying to return the car in Salzburg. On the afternoon we arrived, we happened to meet an Austrian holiday, and everyone was off work early. Then we tried all kinds of ways to return the car by ourselves. The next day, we received an email saying that the left rear hub was damaged, so we rushed to the return point. They said the car had already been rented out. Yesterday, we received an email saying that we had to pay 320 euros in compensation. It's really not worth it! Fortunately, the insurance can be compensated, so be sure to buy insurance, otherwise you don't know what will happen ? Austria Q&A
