A useful website showing clearly

A useful website showing clearly the options. The paperwork via email was a bit confusing though and could be better titled so it’s easier to re-find in your inbox. There was initially no confirmation immediately after the booking was made so I had to confirm the transaction by phoning up.

I was hesitant to book

I was hesitant to book a car from Unirent as I have no previous experience with them, and I prefer to use well known car hire companies because of issues I have had using less well known companies in the past. It worked out fine however because all my dealings at the airport where with Eurocar and I don’t really understand the reasoning behind the Unirent brand especially as I was in two minds not to book a car from them and choose and alternative brand instead.

Location information for Salzburg

Considered as one of the most beautiful cities in the world, Salzburg has always been popular for its finely preserved baroque-style buildings. It is the fourth largest city in the country of Austria and the capital of the Federal State of Salzburg. This city is actually most famous for being the hometown of the legendary Amadeus Mozart and has also become quite popular as the setting for some of the scenes in the film 'The Sound of Music'.

Car Hire

Book cheap car hire with CompareCarHire.co.uk and obtain the freedom to as you please during your stay in Salzburg. We compare dozens of leading car hire suppliers such as Hertz, Alamo, Avis and Europcar, to find you the best price. We offer an array of cars to choose from, so if there are a few of you going then we have up to 7 seater vehicles.

If sightseeing is your purpose then make sure you book car hire in Salzburg before you travel. Consider that this is the fourth largest city in the whole country. Its landmarks are mostly scattered throughout the city since there's just so much to see, and it's surrounding scenery is worth a trip out of the city.

Booking a hire car spares you from the inconveniences of using the city's public transport system, which can really get quite confusing for any traveller.

Things To Do

It's a wonderful place to go sightseeing, especially if you're an architecture enthusiast or if you simply want to see majestic buildings. Check out the following list of attractions, and make sure you don't miss them!
