Top Tips for Renting a Convertible Car in Basel
- You won't find the traditional snowy mountain feel that lots of other cities in Switzerland have when vising Basel, as it has managed to strike a balance between urban cool and a small town by the river-type vibe. Booking convertible car hire in this up-and-coming city is a good way to take advantage of its modern nature and amazing weather. Visit the Basler Rathaus, which is often alive when outdoor markets are set up on the surrounding streets, or see the other side of the city's personality and visit the Basel Cathedral.
- A nearby airport to Basel is Basel Airport (BSL), which is about 5.6 km away. The airport is divided into two sections: the French sector and the Swiss sector. Both sectors have car hire companies on site. When looking for convertible car hire in Basel, likely you'll be making use of the Swiss sector. The car hire companies here are in Hall 4 on Level 2. Hertz and Europcar are popular choices for convertible car hire in Basel directly from the airport.
- Basel has a lovely light and breezy climate, which is unexpected when you first think about a Swiss holiday; it's a fantastic summer destination, and actually, most of the year is pleasant. It is known to be blessed with around 200 days of sunshine a year, making it an all-year-round destination. You can drive along the banks of the Rhine River and see people escaping the heat and taking dips in the water. You'll find the roads are well signposted in most parts of the city and the flow of traffic is easy, the only thing to watch out for is pedestrians and cyclists.
- When driving your convertible car hire in the city centre of Basel, you might find it a bit hard to navigate at first. There are plenty of one-way roads, which can get frustrating if you get stuck trying to head in a particular direction. Parking in the city centre is also an issue at most times, so rather drop the top of your convertible car hire and head further afield with the breeze in your hair to avoid spending too much time in the city centre.
- Book your convertible car rental in Basel at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- February is typically the cheapest month to rent a convertible car in Basel, with prices around ₪30 per day. The most expensive month is August, with average prices of ₪122 per day.
