We were very happy with this visit to Basel.

Very good choices regarding the places to visit. We also loved taking extra time to stroll in the botanical garden located near a post.

Operator response

Merci beaucoup! 😊 Nous sommes ravis que les choix d'endroits à visiter à Bâle vous aient plu et que vous ayez profité du jardin botanique à proximité — c'est exactement la liberté que nous voulons offrir, explorer à votre rythme et découvrir des trésors supplémentaires en chemin! Nous espérons vous retrouver bientôt dans une autre ville! 🗺️

Great scavenger hunt/walk in Basel

Spent a morning completing the scavenger hunt. All of the clues are fairly close to each other and it’s quite level so a very relaxing walk. Some of the clues were a bit cryptic but the there’s a hint button if you get stuck. Great fun !!

Entertaining voyage of discovery

The scavenger hunt is tricky (but easy to solve with the tips) and the distances are short. It leads a bit away from the hustle and bustle and yet the hustle and bustle is just around the corner. We had fun!
