Daytrip is a private car service platform that connects you with local drivers who will transport you door-to-door. We also give you the opportunity to explore sights/attractions along the way. We drive, you discover.
Daytrip offers private door-to-door transfers with optional sightseeing stops, hourly driver hire, and curated day trips — all with local English-speaking drivers and operating across 130+ countries.

Yes! Book a private, door-to-door airport transfer with a local English-speaking driver. Enjoy fixed and transparent pricing, no hidden fees, and the option to pay in advance without the hassle of exchanging cash at a foreign airport.
You will receive the vehicle that best fits the number of travelers in your group, ranging from a sedan to a van for groups of up to 7. Depending where you travel, you can book anything from a sedan comparable to a Toyota Corolla to a Mercedes V-Class to a Classic Cuban Car. While the exact model may vary, we always ensure that the vehicle provided meets your needs in terms of safety, reliability, and comfort. You may be upgraded to a larger vehicle class free of charge depending on availability. Since our largest vehicle seats 7, for groups larger a combination of vehicles will be used. We will send you the exact vehicle details a few days before your trip.
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.
Yes, and the geography makes it easy. The Salzkammergut lake district surrounds Mondsee, so destinations like St. Wolfgang, Hallstatt, or the lake town of Fuschl are all within a short drive. When booking a Daytrip transfer, you can add sightseeing stops to your route, letting you turn a single transfer into a curated day across the Austrian lake region rather than a straight point-to-point ride.
Mondsee is roughly 27 km (17 miles) from Salzburg, making it one of the most accessible lake escapes in the region. A Daytrip private transfer gets you there door to door in around 30 to 40 minutes with no timetable to catch, no parking to find, and no connection to miss. Your driver can also suggest short stops along the way if anything catches your eye on the route.
Four to five hours is comfortable for most visitors. The UNESCO pile dwelling museum, the Mondsee Abbey, and a walk along the lakefront each take around an hour, and you will want time to sit at a café and simply enjoy the scenery. Arriving mid-morning and leaving late afternoon gives you the full experience without rushing.
The famous wedding scene from the Oscar-winning film was shot inside Mondsee Abbey — the same medieval church you can walk into today. In the film it served as the Nonnberg Abbey where Maria married Captain von Trapp. Standing in front of that ornate, skull-adorned altar is a surprisingly striking moment, whether you are a fan of the film or not.
Thousands of years ago, Neolithic settlers built their homes on wooden stilts directly above the lake. These prehistoric pile dwellings are now preserved and partially recreated at the Mondsee Museum, one of several such sites recognized across the Alps. It is a genuinely fascinating window into how early humans adapted to their environment, and far more engaging than a typical history museum.
Mondsee punches well above its size. In one visit you get a UNESCO World Heritage prehistoric site, a strikingly beautiful Alpine lake, a medieval abbey made famous by The Sound of Music, and a charming market town that Salzburg locals genuinely love rather than just tolerate for tourists. That combination of ancient history, cinematic beauty, and everyday Austrian life is rare and hard to replicate elsewhere in the region.
2+ million travelers like you. Moments they'll never forget.
So, so happy I stumbled upon this website to book two private transports while visiting Lima, Peru. They were both one-way trips approximately 3 hours in length. Great communication as soon as everything was booked via email and I then downloaded their app. I had a few issues with the app and the customer service was awesome trying to assist me in getting it corrected. Honestly impressive customer service which gave you a positive feeling that you made the right choice. Both drivers were right on time - No issues whatsoever! Can't say enough about the service and ease of everything when travelling so far away. Great job to the daytrip team! Would strongly recommend.
