City gates and the Birs in Laufental
For people in the Laufental, reaching a long-haul airport is often awkward: regional train to Basel, then an ICE, then the airport station. With a chauffeur all that disappears – you get in in Laufen and get out at the terminal.
The region’s ceramics and industrial firms welcome customers from around the world. We handle the pick-up at Frankfurt Airport and bring your guests to Laufental well rested.

How the pick-up in Laufen works
Laufen’s old town is partly traffic-calmed. The station or the access road at the Obertor work well as meeting points. From Zwingen, Brislach or Wahlen we collect you at home. As the road through the Birs valley to Basel is winding, we recommend a forward-facing seat for sensitive passengers – just let us know.

Private transfer instead of a shared shuttle from Laufen

If you want something more exclusive, book our VIP transfer service with an S-Class – also at a fixed price, around the clock.
Train, taxi or chauffeur? Comparing options from Laufen

Available around the clock, including Sundays and public holidays: our dispatch team plans your pick-up in Laufen so that you reach check-in on time. For early-morning departures we naturally set off in the middle of the night.
