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.
