Basel - April 1 - Easter - taxi ?? - tips??

Has anyone experienced an Easter holiday in Basel. I am wondering if there will be cabs at the train station for a ride to the cruise pier - or should I try to book transportation before we leave?

This is our first river cruise and looking back at all our ocean cruises, I don't believe I've been in Europe on a holiday such as Easter so I don't know what to expect.

Also - I've read that Switzerland is not really a "tipping country " Is this true? We always tip for many services but then again - first visit to Switzerland and I would appreciate some advice.

Thank you.

If the trains are running, there will be cabs at the station. For some additional information, try here: https://www.basel.com/en/Getting-there-exploring-the-City/Exploring-the-City/Taxis-in-Basel

We"ll catch a cab at the train station. Will probably be more $$ for holiday but thats fine - at least it;s easy!

Be aware that Easter Monday following Easter is a holiday in most of Europe and many places will be closed. Have found cafes and museums open however.
