Basel is located in the triangle where Switzerland, France and Germany all meet. A beautiful, well-tended old city, the river Rhine, secluded parks – both clean and safe – all of this is Basel. Added to this comes a wide selection of hotels, restaurants and bars, good shopping and a comprehensive range of free-time activities, including not least some 40 museums – some of which enjoy a global reputation.
This city on the Rhine is a key international-transport hub, with its airport close to the city, a Rhine port, two central stations, a dense public transport network and a modern road system ensuring good connections to everywhere in the world.
