The town and harbour cruises last for around two hours. They pass by the attractive façades of the Basel old town, the Basel Minster, the old town walls by the St. Alban-Tal town quarter, the ‘Kleinbasler Rheinufer’ right up to the tripoint and the Basel Rhine harbour, the loading and unloading point for countless items of freight.
During the two and a half hour lock cruise from Basel to Rheinfelden along the Rhine’s banks on the Swiss and German side, two locks are negotiated in Augst and Birsfelden and several stations are operated, including one at Kaiseraugst, near the former Roman town of Augusta Raurica.
