Cars, busses, biking and using your feet

by Pavlik_NL

Luxembourg is small. Small enough to get around by foot or even better, by bike. This way you also get in touch with the surrounings, though one has to be a - at least - average bicyclist as for the mountainousness of the country. With your car you have the freedom to quickly get around and busses connect every little corner in the country in an easy way for people who prefer to walk on various beautiful places of Luxembourg.The picture shows Echternach, the religious important and very old town.

Getting there by train

by KennetRose

Luxembourg, for all the small size of city and country, is a major European crossroads, which I guess is one reasion why it retains its status and its distinctive atmosphere and culture. Trains converge from Brussels, via the Ardennes, to the north west; from Strasbourg and Switzerland to the south, and from Trier, the Mosel valley and the rest of Germany to the east.

All around - one month ticket

by gnt70

There is a blue ticket that gives you unlimited journeys for all the Luxembourg trains and buses and for one month! Ask for it to the Luxembourg railway station or to the City transport information centre at the basement of Hamilius square.Visit my Metz page for some additional information concerning a special offer for the area of Luxembourg-Lorraine (France) and Saarland (Germany).

by voyageur2

There are many flights to Luxembourg Airport. But i went via Frankfurt Am Main by train. DB is realy good selection for this. A train trip is good for watching unique nature of Germany and seeing the cities like Mainz, Koblenz and Trier. Train is also a good alternative for the people coming from French and Belgian directions.City center is not big. If you have not a problem with your feet, enjoy walking. Fresh air and atmosphere will motivate you enough.For distant areas you can prefer bus or train for a cheaper and entertaining solution.

Unlike the other Low Countries...

by James63

Unlike the other Low Countries - Belgium and Netherlands - Luxembourg does not have an extensive railway network. (There is pretty much a North-South line and an East-West line.) Consequently, the best way to get to Luxembourg is by road or air. The national airline, Luxair, provides top notch service. That said, coming from Paris or Brussels, the train is a vaiable option.Once in Luxembourg, the automobile is your best bet for getting around, except in the capital where parking is scarce and the police will sit and wait for your limited time parking to expire. In Luxembourg City, walking is the way to go. The city is small enough that you will not tire out. To visit the rest of the country, the car is about the only option. With really only two rail lines, trains are not available like they are in other countries. The best move is to get to your hotel and then arrange a rental car - the...

by B_Caro

Of course by bike (and on foot to climb some of the more difficult hills lol). Half of the group had to rent a bike (so did I). The quality of these bikes wasn’t that good and sometimes it was really tough to climb these hills with only 5 – 7 gears available.If you own a good bike yourself, make sure you bring it with you. It sure makes a difference, certainly on this kind of terrain.

by Annabella

For a very low price (less than $10), you can get a day pass for the country's entire transportation system (all buses, trains, etc. -- I ended up on many buses with kids coming home from school). If you time things right, you can see just about the whole country in one day. It's lovely to take a train trip through the mountains -- there are castles or castle ruins on many mountainsides. Everything moves at a pretty slow pace in the off season -- so it's very relaxing.

Transportation

by Bjorgvin

Luxembourg in the heart of Europe is very well connected on land and by air. The airport is 6km from the city. The most economical way to get around in Luxembourg is by train and bus. Car rental rates in Luxembourg are among the lowest in Europe. A very economical way to travel Luxembourg and see its major attractions is to buy the Luxembourg Card. The Luxembourg Card, available from July 1 to October 31 each year, provides free access to the national public transportation network, free admission to 31 attractions, and discounts at three other attractions. Family or individual cards are available for a period of one, two, or three days. The price is very reasonable.

by PrefabSprout

From UK. Fly by Ryanair to Frankfurt Hahn and bus the last bit. Its so much cheaper than flying with Luxair or British Airways. A typical return flight from Stanstead or Preswick will cost you 50 - 60 pounds. The Standard BA fare is about 180 ! ( Justify that BA ) ! Use Buses the taxis are a real rip off - especially from the airport. Hire bikes are available for some of the year apparently but I have never seen them !
