Das perfekte Wochenende in Basel
Basel, die Stadt im Dreiländereck zwischen Deutschland, Frankreich und der Schweiz verbindet Großstadtfeeling mit Kleinstadtromantik. Sie ist definitiv einen Kurztrip wert! Die Stadt liegt zu beiden Seiten des Rheins. Enge Gassen, gemütliche Plätze und viele Cafés prägen das Bild der Altstadt. Trotz ihrer langen Geschichte und vieler Traditionen ist Basel jung und sehr lebendig geblieben.
Michael Friemel ist begeistert von der Lebendigkeit. Er entdeckt Basel von oben und lernt, dass Leckerlis nicht nur etwas für Hunde sind. Er erfährt, dass die Basler ein ganz besonderes Verhältnis zu Picasso haben und schmunzelt darüber, dass aus einem traditionellen Geldhaus kurzerhand ein schickes Kaffeehaus ohne Verzehrzwang wurde. Vor allem erlebt Michael Friemel eine Stadt am Wasser.
Der Rhein spielt eine wichtige Rolle. Bei schönem Wetter verbringen viele Basler ihre Freizeit am Fluss oder sogar in den Fluten, sie lassen sich von einer vier historischen Fähren gemütlich ans andere Ufer schippern. Und dann sind da ja noch mehr als 200 Brunnen. In einige steigen die Basler zur Erfrischung. Michael trifft nicht nur auf akribische Brunnenputzer, sondern nimmt selbst ein Bad. Mit mehr als 30 Museen ist Basel auch eine Stadt der Kunst. Michael zieht es vom kleinsten, dem Hoosesaggmuseum, bis zum größten Ausstellungshaus der Schweiz, der weltberühmten Kunsthalle Basel.

Switzerland Tour | Kamiya Jani's 5-Day Itinerary | Curly Tales
The snow-capped mountains, beautiful lakes and impeccable natural beauty. Sigh! If there is one European place every Bollywood buff in India wishes to visit, Switzerland would be it! With many Indian films being shot in this European paradise, I just had to visit this place to satiate the filmy girl in me. Read more about my experience:
While I had been longing to visit this places for years, it only worked out a week before my actual departure. My unapproved leaves got approved, I got a cheap airfare alert and I also had a valid Schengen visa. It was literally the case of - The Mountains Are Calling.

But hold on! I was yet to figure an itinerary and bookings to enjoy all the excursions & experiences Switzerland has to offer. Last minute bookings can be quite a task. Imagine going through multiple online websites or agents to co-ordinate, research & book. But here's what helped!
From deciding on what places to visit to experiences to opt for and even my airport transfers, I could book all of this on one app - Klook even before reaching my destination. No middleman or agent, all paperless & hassle-free with a QR codes easily accessible on my phone! Here are some of the must do experiences.

24 Hour Guide to Basel, Switzerland
Art. Culture. History. Food. Luxury. The Rhine River. Basel has a lot going on and I had limited time to see it so I took in the highlights as fast as I could. My homebase was the Hotel Nomad, a trendy boutique with easy access to top sites like the Altstadt, or old city, the Marktplatz which has a farmer's market, Johann Wanner Christmas shop, the Kunstmuseum Basel, Fondation Beyeler and the Rhine River. We took river ferries to cross to Klein Basel, a funky neighborhood with a lot of great shops, cafes and of course, the notable Ueli Brewery.
Check out this travel guide for how to see some of Basel's hotspots, in just 24 hours!

Switzerland's Great Cities
Rick Steves' Europe Travel Guide © 2008 | Focusing on Switzerland's often-overlooked urban charms, we explore lakeside Luzern, cobbled Bern, spire-filled Zürich, and sophisticated Lausanne. We’ll enjoy eye-opening art, from Chagall and Klee to the works of asylum inmates. We’ll ring a very big bell high up in a church spire, float down a rushing river, and ponder Switzerland's pragmatic drug policies and hidden underground arsenals. And it's all before a backdrop of stunning natural beauty. #ricksteves #ricksteveseurope #switzerland

Basel erleben - Kurzurlaub im Dreiländereck Deutschland, Frankreich, Schweiz
Schauen Sie ruhig mal bei Frau Google auf die Karte: Unser neues Partnerhotel - das B&B in Weil am Rhein - liegt genau 180 Meter entfernt von dem Punkt, wo sich die Grenzen von Deutschland, Frankreich und der Schweiz treffen. Das Dreiländereck, mitten im Fluss. Neben dieser Besonderheit bietet die Region Basel touristisch jede Menge. Sie können bei Spar mit! Reisen jetzt 2 Ü/F mit Extras für sensationelle 99 Euro buchen.
Das B&B Hotel im Dreiländereck folgt dem einheitlichen Erfolgskonzept der französischen Kette: Verzicht auf Schnick-Schnack, kein Restaurant, keine Wellness. Ordentliche Zimmer mit allem was man heute braucht, WLAN und Parkplatz inkusive zum Budget-Preis. Zwei junge sympathische Profis führen das Haus als selbständige Gastgeber, Daniel di Fabio und seine Partnerin Annemarie Näther. Er sagt: Wir haben da nicht lange überlegen müssen. Bei der Lage, das ist doch ein Traum!
Träumen Sie gern mit, wir erzählen schon mal ein paar Geschichten. Ums Eck vom Hotel hinter dem Rheincenter (Shopping, Kino, Gastro) überquert seit 2007 die Dreiländerbrücke den Rhein, die - aufgepasst - längste Fußgänger-Bogenbrücke der Welt. Sie gelang den Erbauen dermaßen prächtig, dass sie hintereinanderweg ein halbes Dutzend Design- und Architekturpreise für Brücken einheimste. Mehr geht wohl nicht.
Am anderen Ufer - dem französischen - sind es vom Brückenkopf ganze 150 Meter zum Place Abbatucci. An der Ecke dort im Restaurant Le Vauban lernen Sie nicht nur Chefin Isabelle Godhbane kennen (ein echtes Hüninger Original), sondern auch ihre herrlichen, hausgemachten Elsässer Flammkuchen. Mit Zwiebeln, Speck, Pilzen und Käse - hmmm! Einer für Sie inklusive Getränk ist beim Spar mit!-Paket schon dabei.
Beim Verdauungsspaziergang retour können Sie unsere Paket-Überschrift testen: Wenn Sie von der Brückenmitte zurück gehen bis zum Schweizer Zoll, dann haben Sie in drei Minuten drei Länder zu Fuß betreten. Apropos Schweizer Zoll. Da gibt es noch etwas Besoderes, die Linie 8. Sie ist eine von ganz wenigen grenzüberschreitenden Straßenbahnen in der Welt, im Dezember 2014 wurde die Linie eingeweiht. Alle 8 oder 15 Minuten fährt die Tram der Basler Verkehrsbetriebe seitdem ins Zentrum. Ein Ticket für Sie haben wir mit ins Paket gepackt. Zum Abschluss Ihres Dreiländereck-Wochenendes haben wir noch noch ein super Geschenk für Sie: die Dreiländerbrücke im Abendlicht als exklusives 1000-Teile-Puzzle.

Switzerland is a small country full of surprises and wonderful villages. Since decades, Switzerland has been attracting numerous tourists from allover the world. It is the Alps that fascinates most of the visitors but also the very well preserved villages. Although Switzerland is quite small, depending on the region, the villages and towns may look very different. In this video, the 10 most beautiful villages from allover the country will be presented in detail. While there may be a few that you might have heard of, there will be quite some surprises. Gruyères is THE place to experience the medieval vibes in Switzerland. The castle, the museums and furthermore the foodie world of Gruyères are really exciting to experience, do not forget to try fondue, Gruyère cheese and double cream! Zermatt is the most popular village on this list. Visit the many panoramas over the Swiss Alps, see the Matterhorn or simply explore the village of Zermatt itself! Discover the many beautiful traditional wooden houses scattered around this Swiss village! Visit what used to be the smallest municipality of Switzerland: Corippo. Corippo is located in the Valle Verzasca in Ticino. It's a wonderful village full of stone houses and very interesting: ONLY 12 people live in there! Surely, it's not crowded there. Saint-Ursanne is another medieval village; the town that could be in a fairytale. Saint-Ursanne is built along the river doubs and charms with its many medieval houses and wonderful abbey. Guarda - the town of Schellenursli - in the lower Engadin is located in the Rumantsch speaking region of Switzerland. It's far away the urban centres and very quiet. Best to visit during Summer or on Chalandamarz! Grimentz is THE stereotypical village of Switzerland. It's located up in the Swiss Alps and charms with its many traditional wooden houses. The houses are all decorated with red flowers; cheesy and alluring! Lauterbrunnen is another touristy favorite. The village is small but it's located in the Valley of 72 Waterfalls! Enjoy the scenery with its many waterfalls and greens! Do not forget to go up to Wengen and the Jungfraujoch! Epesses is located in Switzerland's wine region at lake Geneva! It's a wonderful village in the middle of the vineyards and definitely offers you enough viewpoints over the wine terraces, lake Geneva and the Swiss Alps. Stein am Rhein is also a very medieval and cultural village. The old town is perfectly preserved and charms with its many painted houses. Spectacular is the No e Wili play that is held on a 10-25 years base. Enjoy swimming in the river Rhine or dining at the Castle Hohenklingen. MORCOTE is the most beautiful Swiss village on this Top 10 list! It's located at Lake Lugano and charms with its appearance of being built at the hill. Stunning is the church Maria del Sasso, the wonder garden in the Parco Scherrer and furthermore the many viewpoints on the hill. Morcote is by the way considered not very touristy. Thus perfect to rank 1st among the Top 10 Villages of Switzerland! WATCH the ENTIRE VIDEO in 4K!
