  • Head off to Basel for an excellent sightseeing experience. About 177 kilometers from Zermatt, it's home to tons of amazing attractions like Basel Zoo.

What do you need to rent a car in Zermatt?
You'll generally require a driver's license and credit card in your name when picking up the keys to your vehicle. Proof of coverage may also be required if you'd prefer to opt out of the company's insurance policy. Rules often differ between suppliers, so remember to check before booking.
