Driving between Munich and Vienna

We are planning a road trip between Munich and Vienna in April (now) Questions:
- Are the Apricot/ fruit trees blooming now
- Which route(s) do you suggest?
- Could you suggest a “heurigen” to stop at for lunch?
- Is there a comfortable hotel along the way?
- Anything else that might be fun to visit along the way?
- Thanks for any comments or ideas

If you are renting a car in Germany, or somewhere other than Austria, you will need to purchase a vignette for the car. If you are turning in the rental car in Vienna under those circumstances, you are going to pay a very large international drop fee, because the car will then have to be transported back to its home country before it can be rented again.

But maybe it is your own personnel vehicle. You do not say where your home is. If from North America, you will ne an IDP to drive in Austria.

As far as places to see and do, any good guide should give you plenty of suggestions.
