Basel

Whether your appointment is at a life sciences campus, a stand at Messe Basel or one of the city's many museums, arriving rested matters. Basel straddles the Rhine at the meeting point of three countries and is a major base for the pharmaceutical industry and international fairs. Our Geneva airport private transfer goes straight to your hotel or site, so the drive doubles as working time.

Route and journey time to Basel

Basel is about 250 km from Geneva Airport and the drive takes roughly 2 h 45 min. The route crosses Switzerland northwards to the Rhine. Your chauffeur takes you to the address you choose: a hotel, a company site or Messe Basel. If you are attending a trade fair, add the hall or entrance you need to your booking so the car heads for the closest drop-off point.

How the service works

From the moment your plane touches down, our Geneva airport driver service takes care of the rest. We track the flight, so a delay never leaves you without a car, and the extra waiting costs nothing. Look for your name on the sign held by your chauffeur in arrivals, then head straight to the car for a door-to-door ride to Basel. You pay one fixed price for the whole vehicle, known in advance.

Picking the right car

For one or two business travellers, the Mercedes E-Class is a comfortable, discreet choice. The S-Class is our Geneva airport black car service option when you want the calmest rear cabin for calls, reading or rest. Families and small groups with luggage travel together in a V-Class, and a Sprinter can be arranged on request for bigger parties or bulky items.
