Which exit should I take at EuroAirport?

For Basel and the rest of Switzerland, take the Swiss exit, signed Ausgang Schweiz. The French exit leads to Alsace and to Germany. The two sides are separate road networks, so we confirm the exit with you before you land and your driver waits on the correct side.

How long does the transfer from EuroAirport to Basel take?

About 15 minutes to the city centre and about 20 minutes to Messe Basel, using the customs road from the Swiss sector. The distance is roughly 10 kilometres.

How long is the drive from Basel to Zurich Airport?

About 1 hour 5 minutes in normal traffic for 89 kilometres. We allow more time at peak hours and follow your flight, so the pickup time adapts if the schedule changes.

Do you also drive to Germany and France from Basel?

Yes. We serve the whole tri-national region, including Weil am Rhein, Lörrach and Freiburg im Breisgau in Germany and Saint-Louis, Mulhouse and Colmar in France, as well as longer cross-border journeys.

How far ahead should I book for Art Basel?

Fair week is the busiest of the year in Basel, so we recommend booking several weeks ahead. For the rest of the year, 48 hours is usually enough, and same-day requests are possible subject to availability.

Basel sits where Switzerland, France and Germany meet. CABLANE Swiss is based here, and most of our daily work is in and around the city: arrivals at EuroAirport, transfers between the Roche and Novartis sites, runs to Zurich Airport, and evenings at the Fondation Beyeler in Riehen. Our drivers know the customs road from the airport, the closures during the Herbstmesse and Fasnacht, and the short routes between hotels and Messe Basel during fair weeks. Whether you need a private driver for an evening, a car service for a delegation or a limousine to the airport, we drive electric.
