Kreisvier and Basel Tourism once again dispense with Swiss clichés

Already in winter, Basel Tourism presented Basel as a desirable destination with atypical tourist attractions. This break from the Swiss cliché is now being extended with a summer image campaign by Kreisvier.

SchweizklischeeAs the main medium, an online film now complements the existing advertising tools. In it, an American couple tells friends about their vacation in Switzerland. The soundtrack suggests a picture-book Swiss vacation, but the scenes shown tell a completely different story.

Furthermore, the campaign will be extended digitally through DOOH, banners, social media, web and owned media, this time with a summer atmosphere in the city on the Rhine.
