KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Linz

  • Driving a car rental in Linz provides you with the freedom to create your itinerary and travel at your own pace. You can visit multiple attractions in a day, make spontaneous stops, and venture off the beaten path to discover hidden gems. Also, having a car hire allows you to conveniently travel to various destinations, including remote areas and smaller towns that might not be easily accessible by public transportation. With a car, you can easily visit places like the nearby Salzkammergut region, Hallstatt, Cesky Krumlov in the Czech Republic, and more.

Opposite the main airport terminal in car park K1, you will find the airport’s car hire area where you can choose between six major Linz car hire companies, including Avis, Hertz, and Budget.
  • When driving your car rental in Linz, keep in mind that Linz is a major city in Austria, and its roads can experience heavy traffic, especially during peak hours of 7:00 to 8:00 and 16:00 to 17:00.

During winter, road surfaces may be icy or snowy, and visibility may be reduced.

One must be very careful with damages to the auto. You must know it every minor detailed scratch or mark on the car. Upon return they check it with a fine tooth comb and you will be charged for any little scratch not previously noted.
