Description

Basel - the “Cultural Capital” of Switzerland and the leading site of Swiss trade fairs, is nestled proudly on the banks of Rhine River.

Reveal more about the diversity of the stunning Basel City and its eye-catching landmarks during a 2-hour walking tour, accompanied by an informative expert guide.

Every corner of Basel attracts the tourists, especially the multitude of museums found in every square kilometer, including the Tinguely Museum - home to the works of the innovative Jean Tinguely, the Basel Art Museum “Kunstmuseum” - where you can explore the transformation of art over time and the amazing cultural museums such as the Museum of Cultures, Basel Historical Museum, or the interesting Swiss Architecture Museum. The Dollhouse Museum is also the perfect attraction for families, renowned for being the home to toys from all around the world.

The Old Town (Altstadt) of Basel is the significant part of today’s city that offers numerous activities such as walking through the traditional cobblestone streets and taking a look at the fabulous artificial fountains, primarily the Tinguely fountain with the animated iron machines. Even by just passing alongside the old houses and churches, dating back to the Middle Ages, you’ll feel a satisfaction and sense of belonging unfolding before you.

Basel’s Town Hall “Rathaus”, is situated in the center of the Old Town - a red sandstone building with colourful paintings on the outside. Inside one can find the representing chambers of the Parliament and the Government Council, considered as one of the must-see milestones in Basel.

We also advise you to visit the Basel Zoological Garden, which is the favourite destination for all pet lovers and families. The Zoo contains a variety of domestic and exotic animals to learn about and enjoy.

At the end of the day, you’ll have the opportunity to admire the delightful pearl view over the Rhine River while tasting the famous “Basler Leckerli Biscuit” – the regional biscuit made of honey. Then, just sit back and enjoy a scenic boat trip to see some of the city’s most famous landmarks on the Rhine River under Basel’s bright sky.

There are many stunning places in Basel. Here’s a short list so you don’t miss a thing:

  • - Basel Minster.
  • - Nature surrounded Wildenstein Castle.
  • - The Musical Theater Basel.
  • - Basel Paper Mill.
