Cruise port in Basel

There are several different places they dock in Basel. Ours was an easy tram ride from the center of the old town. At worst, you hire a taxi. You can easily get from Basel old town area to the airport or train station via public transportation.

Diane, Easy. But:
1) Where are you starting from? Basel SBB (main station), Basel airport or somewhere else?

2) There are three possible places cruise ships dock in Basel: St Johann, Klybeck and Dreiländereck.
You need to find out which one your ship docks at. I have heard, they sometimes do not finally decide until the day before arriving.

• St. Johann - Tram 11, to tram stop "St Johanns-Tor". Then 3 minute walk across a park.

• Klybeck and Dreiländereck - These are both in the docks and are harder to reach. Tram 8 to tram stop "Kleinhünigen". Then 10-15 minute walk through the docks area.

Tram costs CHF 3.80 to or from anywhere in Basel; if you stay at a hotel in Basel you get a free tram ticket for the duration of your stay. Taxi within Basel will cost ~CHF 30-35.

And are you looking for transport to or from the ship? You post is ambiguous: "get to the cruise port in Basel? Our tour will not include transport from ship to"
