There are so many great places to visit in Austria. Popular spots include the Altstadt in Salzburg, the Schlossberg at Graz, the Altstadt at Linz and the medieval Inner Stadt of Vienna. While the cities have plenty to offer on many levels, there is nothing to beat a stirring drive in the countryside to blow those cobwebs away. Escaping the confines of the city means taking advantage of  cheap car hire in Austria so that once behind the wheel, you can take to those glorious open roads and play that Julie Andrews CD at full blast!
