Program details

With this tour we will jump from Brussels to the capital of the Grand Duchy, Luxembourg, a city whose wall is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. A place full of magic, history, artistic treasures and with the highest GDP per capita in the world. A mandatory visit on your trip to Belgium.



At 8:00 we will pick you up in the centre of Brussels to go to the city of Luxembourg, located about 200 kilometres east of the Belgian capital. On our way we will cross the Ardennes forest to enter this small country.



The visit begins at 11:30 in the Plaza de la Constitution, located very close to the centre. We will explain the history of the city and an introduction to place ourselves in the annals of Luxembourg.

We will begin by discovering the Main square a place full of life founded by a Spaniard in 1671. Here we will find restaurants and stately cafés typical of the city.

From there, we go to the well-known passage of the town hall and we will enter the Guilherme II square. The largest square in the city and where the Luxembourg City Hall is located.

We continue until we reach one of the most charming areas of the city, the Notre Dame Cathedral. Built in 1621 and founded by the Jesuit order, it is a place that deserves to be visited. From here we will walk to the best-known shopping area in Luxembourg.

We will continue walking towards the Royal Palace, originally measured from the 16th century and restored in the 18th century. A great style building, where we can see the Luxembourg Royal Guard parading through its door.

We will advance to Claire Fontaine Square, crowned by Duchess Charlotte, sovereign during the years 1919 and 1964.

We will discover the church of Saint Michelle, where we will stop at the Corniche viewpoint, considered one of the most beautiful in all of Europe. From this place we will observe the beautiful panorama of Luxembourg, its impressive wall, and all the viewpoints that give fame to this beautiful place. Here are the famous Casemates, fortifications World Heritage by UNESCO.

From this point we will descend to the Grund neighborhood, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. A small town within Luxembourg with Romanesque and Germanic touches. An ideal location full of magic to have another perspective of the city.



At the end of the visit you will have 2 hours of free time to eat and explore at your whim the capital of the Grand Duchy.

We will be back in Brussels around 8:00 p.m.
