Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This was such a cool experience! It's a Rhine "cruise" on a budget! Ingenious execution of an ingenious concept. Lots of fun. Highly recommend.

Such a scenic, unique and quick way to cross the river! Best if you come prepared with cash and not use a credit card. The other couple used a card and it took almost the entire ride to process (and the ride is not long)! They also only take Swiss Francs, so don't ask if Euro's can be used (like the gang getting on after us). We thought it was fun and would recommend it.

This ferry of the Rhine is an indulgence, as there are plenty of bridges. However the Rhine is a very strong river, and this little ferry makes it across at its own sedate pace.

Well worth doing for the experience of crossing the Rhine.

Some small boats intended only for people, slowly crossing the Rhine. along a cable. Nothing impressive.

On a beautiful rainy Winter day, we were enjoying leisurely wandering around the city of Basel. We had walked along both sides of the Rhine, and decided to take the current-powered ferry across the Rhine River, back to the Munster Cathedral. It was a short, peaceful, and very inexpensive ride!

WEW took the ferry across the RHINE after seeing the TINGLEY MUSEUM. Not expensive and takes a VERY SHORT TIME TO CROSS THE RHINE RIVER. Quite convenient

Just next to the bridge, you can cross the river with this nice little boat. Really easy to use, you just have to wait until the boat came. The price is not so expensive and you have a nice view on the old town.

The ferry is very convenient and extremely environmentally friendly. Only the force of the current is used to cross the river. The price is also very good as for Basel. The trip itself is about 5 minutes.

Attractive and ecological way of crossing the river like in old times. It takes just a few minutes and costs less than 2 francs. Dogs are niot allowed on board.i

A must do, especially now when there are fewer tourists. We crossed twice and were alone both times. Gave a chance to chat with the ferrymen. The boats are 100% clean, use the energy of the river to push them across. The view up from the water is a perspective you don't a chance to enjoy.
