Trips along the Rhine

The secret symbol of Basel is the Rhine. It accounts for most of the quality of life which Basel offers its inhabitants and guests.
The Rhine is a life-line and local recreation area, it inspires people, events and the architecture of the city. Where life is played out in all its facets in summer, on the banks of the Rhine – called the «Riviera» – this is where the beat of life is to be found.

You can discover the city and region from the water, and be spoilt by the cuisine at the same time! Numerous entertainment trips provide a great change in the evenings!
