Basel is one of the most underrated cities in Switzerland. It offers so many historical buildings and a lot more things to discover. In this Swiss City Guide: 5 Things to do in Basel I will show 5 exciting things to do on your next trip to Basel. Basel is a huge city compared to other cities in Switzerland. Therefore there is a lot more to explore. But for a short stay, I would recommend the 5 listed things below.

Aarau was for several years my hometown. In my opinion, Aarau is a hidden gem. It is not as popular as other cities and it is quite small compared to other swiss cities but Aarau offers everything for a cozy little break and is a good destination for a weekend trip.

Thun is a well-known city in Switzerland. With its lake, famous old town and the mountains, it is very popular, especially for tourists. You can see in Thun everything you are expecting from Switzerland.

I was bored last weekend and therefore I decided to travel to the town called Baden. It is a smaller town in northwestern Switzerland.

Neuchatel is not a very touristic city and even if I live in Switzerland I was never in Neuchatel so far. But this changed last Saturday. It was the perfect weather for a city trip.
