The beautiful city of Bern is located in the West of Switzerland. It’s known for being the hub for the Swiss government as well as its unique architecture. In fact, Old Bern (the oldest part of town) is a protected UNESCO heritage site. Therefore, the city has much to offer tourists and explorers of all ages.
EuroAirport Basel-Mulhouse-Freiburg Airport is located 100 km away from Bern. To get from Basel Airport to Bern, you have two options. The first is to take a taxi. Basel Airport taxis are easy to find and will get you to Bern in 1 hour and 20 minutes.
