Current Travel Situation
Australia to Luxembourg: What You Need to Know
Luxembourg is one of the world's wealthiest and safest countries, known for its picturesque capital city, medieval fortifications, and its role as a European Union hub. Crime rates are very low and the country is highly welcoming to international visitors. Luxembourg City is easily walkable and makes an excellent base for day trips into the Moselle wine region, the Ardennes, and neighbouring Belgium, France, and Germany.
Practical Tips
Luxembourg City is one of the most compact European capitals, making it possible to see the main highlights in one or two days. Public transport within Luxembourg City is free of charge for all passengers. The country is tiny (roughly the size of the ACT) and is easily explored by car or train. A day trip to the Mullerthal region, known as "Little Switzerland," is highly recommended for its scenic hiking trails.
