Excursions.
These excursions and many more can be directly
booked on location. Our hostesses will
be glad to advise you.
One-day excursion through Basel
With its over 30 museums, Basel offers something
for everyone. Be it music, comics, art,
technology, paintings, collections or nature,
the diversity is outstanding! During the historical
and architectural tour through Basel, you
will be surprised in many ways. Finish your
visit with a nostalgic crossing of the river Rhine
by one of the unique Basel ferries.
Zoo
Inhabitants of Basel lovingly refer to their zoo,
opened in 1874, by the diminutive of “Zolli”.
Some six thousand animals, about six hundred
species, live in this park of around 28 acres.
About a million visitors come to the “Zolli”
every year. This puts Basel’s zoo second only to
Switzerland’s most popular attraction, the
Rhine Falls at Schaffhausen.

Augusta Raurica
The Roman town of Augusta Raurica is the biggest
archaeological open-air museum in
northwestern Switzerland. Stroll through the
ruins of the town, the Roman domestic animal
park and the theater, and let yourself be
carried off into the world of the ancient
Romans. Next to impressive ruins, in the
museum, many exhibits such as the silver treasure
and the “Casa Romana” give insight into
the life of the Roman town.
