Do I need a passport to cross from Germany to Austria?
Both countries are in the Schengen area, so there is no systematic passport control. Still carry your passport or national ID card, and a Schengen visa if your nationality needs one — the European Commission lists visa rules and any temporary border controls notified by member states. [1][2]
Does the same car drive me all the way?
Yes. The car and driver from Munich take you to your hotel in Austria — no change at the border, and the vignette and tolls are included in the price.
Is it possible with skis in winter?
Yes. Cars run on winter tyres from October to Easter, skis travel free; for a group with ski bags choose a minivan (7) or Sprinter.
Can we stop on the way?
Short stops for coffee or shopping are fine; a longer stop (Salzburg old town on the way to Kitzbühel, for example) we price on request.
What about the trip back to Munich Airport?
The return leg has the same price as the outbound route; choose “return” in the calculator or book it separately.
