Budapest to Salzburg and then Salzburg to Munich Airport

“We used Daytrip for the first time for 2 trips, Budapest to Salzburg and then Salzburg to Munich Airport. I was a bit hesitant about using a service like this but would definitely use them again. It was great. Both drivers were early for pick-up, very pleasant, accommodating to anything we requested and good drivers. On both trips we did side trips as well and that too all went well. A few days before your trip, Daytrip contacts you to confirm everything and with full details of your driver (including a picture) and details of the car. As it was my first time using them, I found this very reassuring. I will certainly be using them again if the need arises.”

A great alternative to Air and Train!

“My wife and I used DayTrip throughout our travels in Central Europe (Munich to Salzburg / Salzburg to Budapest / Budapest to Prague & Prague to Munich). The coordination and response by the DayTrip office is almost immediate. The assigned drivers were all very professional and conscientious drivers. Besides sharing their knowledge about the cities and culture, etc., they are very focused on bringing us safely and on-time to our destinations. I will not hesitate to recommend DayTrip to anyone either on holiday or business.”

Frequently Asked Questions

If you have any questions, here are the answers.

Daytrip is a platform that connects you with local drivers who will transport you door-to-door, from one city to the next. We also give you the opportunity to explore sights/attractions along the way. We drive, you discover.

All Daytrip bookings are one way. If you need a return trip on a different date, simply book this as a separate one-way trip. For a same-day excursion, please request a custom trip. If you plan to stay more than a couple hours, we still recommend booking two one way trips so you're not paying a driver for waiting.

For Daytrip’s private service, you can cancel for a full refund up to 24 hours before departure. For the Daytrip Pool shared shuttle, we offer 3 ticket options when booking: Non-refundable, Flexible with cancellations 24-hours before departure, and Super-flexible with cancellations up to 15-minutes before departure. While you can cancel your booking for a full refund up to 24 hours in advance, changes requested under 36 hours are subject to driver availability, especially in the high season.

Simply choose your origin and destination via our homepage and enter your departure date and time. Browse and add sightseeing stops along the way by following the booking instructions provided on screen. It's a simple, easy, and fun way to book your next adventure! And if you don’t see your desired route on our website, you can request a custom trip. You can even book without knowing your exact pick-up or drop-off address - we let you add these later!

Each passenger is allowed one large bag (29" x 21" x 11" / 74 x 53 x 28 cm) and one small bag (22" x 14" x 9" / 56 x 36 x 23 cm). Luxury sedans can only accommodate 2 large bags. We always send the vehicle that is the best fit for you and your luggage, so make sure to select the actual amount of luggage you are traveling with when booking. If you have oversized luggage, or are unsure if your luggage will fit, contact us.

Everywhere except the USA, drivers will supply appropriate child seats (just let us know during booking). In the USA, certain states require you to supply your own child seats.

Daytrip is the most convenient way to experience 14,200+ cities around the world.

Every traveler deserves real insight into the cultures of the countries they’re visiting. And every amazing place on Earth deserves to be visited and appreciated. We believe unique local knowledge and real human connection are irreplaceable when it comes to truly comprehending another culture.
