Frequently asked questions
How long does the drive from Zurich to Basel take?
Around an hour via the A1 and A3, a little more in rush hour. For early meetings we set the pickup time from live traffic conditions.
Do you also drive to EuroAirport Basel-Mulhouse?
Yes, including the French sector. Please tell us which exit you need when booking — the two sectors share a building but have separate approaches.
Can you drive to meetings at Roche, Novartis or on campus?
Yes. For several meetings in one day we recommend hourly hire: the chauffeur stays with you and waits between appointments, which in Basel usually costs less than separate transfers.
Do you drive during Art Basel or trade fairs?
Yes. The city is fully booked in those weeks and access to the exhibition grounds is restricted at times — book early and allow a buffer.
Can you cross into Germany or France?
Yes — Freiburg, Mulhouse, Colmar or Strasbourg. Tolls, vignettes and emission stickers are included; please book international journeys at least 24 hours ahead.
Isn't the train to Basel faster?
From Zurich HB, yes — just under an hour. From the airport with luggage and a change the advantage shrinks, and a transfer takes you to the company address rather than the station.
