The Ultimate Guide to Basel, Switzerland (travel vlog) Eurovision Host 2025

Welcome to our ultimate travel guide to Basel, Switzerland! This charming city, rich in history and culture, quickly became the perfect base for our adventure. We’ll walk through Basel’s Old Town, admire the iconic Basel Minster, swim down the Rhine, eat delicious food, and take you on two unforgettable day trips – one to the medieval town of Gruyères, nestled at the foot of the Alps, and the other to the picturesque Alsatian wine region in France 🍇 (each day trip will be its own video).

In this vlog, we also dive into Basel's artistic side, visiting the Kunstmuseum and sharing the fascinating story of how the city came together to save two precious Picasso paintings. 🎨 Along the way, we try Basel's famous Läckerlis, a 300 year old spiced biscuit, and take a behind-the-scenes tour of Jakob's Basler Leckerly.

Whether you're planning a visit to Basel (Eurovision song contest 2025 anyone?) or just want to experience Switzerland through our lens, this travel vlog offers a mix of history, art, food, impressions, fun activities, and stunning landscapes.
