Re: Taxi prices from Basel Land to France

Best thing to do is to call a few taxi firms and ask. Beware, it won't be cheap. Runs from my apartment between 5 - 10 minutes from the airport would cost between 40 and 50 CHF, depending on time of day....

Re: Taxi prices from Basel Land to France

As a price, I'd put it somewhere between slamming the car door on your fingers and falling on the crossbar of your bicycle.

Call, book and pay in advance if possible.

Pratteln to the airport a few years ago was 80-100CHF. Get the tram, then the distribus. Depends exactly where you're going and why you think you need a taxi.

Distribus? :-) Ha-ha-ha. The latest is at 20:30, and I have to go home after 11 or 12 pm..
But not me who will pay it! :-)

At 3 am on Tuesday morning I was completely drunk and trying to get a cab to drive me to Zurich. I actually found one who would do it for 240 CHF. I waited for the first train though.

What is it with this habit of drip feeding information?

Use public transport to St-Louis Grenze and arrange for a french taxi to pick you up at the border? Or even walk from there?

The most useful members of any forum and psychic - they can provide a full answer with only a single fact.

Well, I can only presume they are psychic
