Bus ZABRZE - BASEL - Sindbad
ZABRZE
Zabrze is a city between Gliwice and Bytom located in Upper Silesia. It is inhabited by nearly 157,000 people. Its name signifies a settlement located behind debry, or hills covered with forest thicket. Although Zabrze as a city has existed since 1922, it has a much longer history. The first mention of its current district, then the settlement of Biskupice, dates back to 1243, and Zabrze is mentioned in documents from the early 14th century. With the advent of the Industrial Revolution, Zabrze developed as an industrial center - coal mines and a steel mill were established.
It seems that there is nothing interesting to see there, but the city stands with interesting attractions not found anywhere else in Poland. In Zabrze you can see many excellently revitalized remnants of its industrial and mining past, such as the Królowa Luiza Adit, once the pride of mining engineers, today one of the biggest attractions of the Silesian province offering interesting attractions both underground and on the surface. A must-see is also the Guido Mine, allowing visitors to descend more than 300 meters below the surface and traverse nearly 5 kilometers of underground trails there, familiarizing themselves with the hard work of miners. Another similar attraction is Maciej Shaft, a complex of buildings of the former Concordia Mine.
Getting to Zabrze

BASEL
Basel is Switzerland's third-largest city and the only one with a port - a river port, of course. It is located on the Swiss border with Germany and France on the Rhine River. The city abounds in numerous historical monuments, and is also famous for its great cuisine and dozens of museums and art galleries.
Basel - attractions of the city
The first place to visit is the local old town, with its Gothic cathedral, dark red town hall, Spalen gate (one of three still standing) and the famous white and blue houses. Around the square are picturesque narrow streets with many historic houses. The observation deck behind the cathedral offers a view of the Rhine River and the other side of the city.
Of Basel's museums, it's worth visiting the Tinguely Museum - a prominent Swiss sculptor and painter working in the 1950s and 1960s, famous especially for constructing moving installations and machines, or the Natural History Museum with its huge collection of fossils, remains of prehistoric animals, where you can also learn about the history of the creation of the Alps and the entire region. Also noteworthy is the Museum of Art, one of the most important cultural institutions in the country, full of famous works of art from the 15th century to the present day.
Because of its location at the meeting point of three borders, Basel is somewhat different from the rest of Swiss cities. It combines different cultures, languages and flavors. What is the best gourmet city in Switzerland? We answer - Basel. Restaurants in the city are highly rated. Among others, it is worth going to Le Rhin Bleu, a restaurant suspended on a special platform over the Rhine. There is also a market hall (Markthalle) near the train station, with more than a dozen restaurants that are inexpensive for Switzerland and serve tasty cuisine from all over the world.
Getting to Basel
You can get to Basel by plane, flying to France's Saint-Louis airport, from which you take a city bus to Switzerland. Alternatively, you can take the Basel long-distance bus, which stops just outside Basel's main train station. You can find a list of available connections on our website. Feel free to board our buses!
