Basel, Switzerland: Family Car Rental
The segments of standard, intermediate and full-size cars in Switzerland traditionally include the following vehicles: Audi A4, Volvo V50, Honda Accord, Audi A3, Toyota Avensis, Mazda 6 and others.

The process of a car reservation on OrangeSmile.com consists of 3 simple steps: (1) search by the dates and pick-up location, (2) car type selection, and (3) booking form completion. After the booking, you will receive a rental voucher at your e-mail address.

Before selecting a specific model to book, check your planned routes. If you are going to drive mostly within the Basel borders, choose a car of 'Standard' or 'Compact' types. In case you plan long cross-countries trips or mountain adventures, the more comfortable and powerful 'Fullsize' models would become a better choice.

If you need a car with an automatic gearbox, try to make a reservation at least a few days before the pick-up date, since confirmation of such models in Basel might be delayed for a day or two.

Upon the return of your car, carefully check that the total payment amount (invoice) is computed according to the original rental conditions.

We wish you 'smooth', secure and safe roads in Basel!

Several special rules must be remembered in respect of driving through tunnels. If there is a traffic jam in a tunnel, it is prohibited to stand motionless with the engine running. If special services staff asks you to leave the tunnel quickly, you need to obey their order immediately. The keys should be left inside the car, and you should leave the tunnel through the emergency exit.
In the territory of settlements, the maximum allowed speed (if there are no other signs) is 50 km/h. Outside the settlements, the maximum permitted speed is 80 km/h. In addition to the standard set of documents (the driving license, the vehicle certificate and the insurance), foreign drivers should always carry a passport. The absence of any of these documents is considered a serious violation.
