Basel train station to Viking dock

[bigpaluka]

What is the best way to get a group of 8 from train station to the Viking dock? I understand it is quite some distance.

 

Thanks

If you go to trip advisor on the Basel forum you will find answers to your question.

take a cab.. its difficult to find on your own.. the cab ran us about 42 swiss francs...

We were met at the station by Viking, they had also arranged the train journey

we took a cab from the Viking dock to the Basel train station. We shared with another couple, & I think the price was around 60 francs

We - a group of 13 arrived in Basel station and needed to get to the Uniworld port. We asked for a price from taxi drivers and were quoted 35 chf. The taxis were very small - wouldn't have fit more than two passengers with luggage. I then went into the tourist office which is located in the train station and got directions for the tram. The tourist office gave us a map and told us precise directions. The ticket machine is right next to tram stops. We took the tram. Them all 13 of us walked from the tram stop - about three blocks to the ship. It really wasn't a bad transfer for us to take.
