About Basel Tourismus

The readiness to commit yourself to your own town is a tradition in Basel. This is also proven by the numerous partners and members who support Basel Tourismus in sustainably promoting awareness of the city and its surrounding region.

Together with the local authorities, hospitality industry, various cultural institutes and other interested groups, we have successfully ensured that this support reaches the right place for over one hundred years.

The main tasks of Basel Tourismus include:

•	Promotion and brand profiling of the Basel region in Switzerland and abroad
•	Creation of touristic offerings and services for individual guests, business travellers and participants in congresses and incentive trips
•	Opening of distribution channels for interested partners and sale of tourism related products and services to individual guests and tour operators
•	Tourist information and booking services by telephone and internet
•	Processing of information on the tourist market as a decision making basis for itself and its members, outward representation of tourism related interests, and active participation in marketing for Basel with multiple target groups
•	External representation of tourism interests and active participation in marketing Basel in a way that covers all target groups
