The Luxembourg City Guides deal with the questions every visitor has: where to find real Luxembourgish cooking instead of tourist plates, how to get between the old town on its rock and the Grund down by the river, which museums cost little or nothing and how far the free trains and buses can take you in a day. Each guide is a short, opinionated list with the reason to go, what to look out for and one practical tip for every place, and it opens in your browser as soon as you pay.

Three places from the guides
Brasserie Guillaume
Place Guillaume II
The city’s grand seafood address: oyster platters, mussels, rockfish soup and a beef carpaccio regulars return for, served at pace by waiters in white aprons. Not cheap, but dependable and open long hours every day. From the food guide.
Ascenseur Panoramique du Pfaffenthal
Rue du Pont, upper town
A free glass lift that drops 71 metres into the Pfaffenthal valley, with a glass-floored viewing platform at the top. Children ride it again and again, and parents with a pushchair skip the stairs. From the family guide.
Wolfsschlucht
30 min walk from Echternach town centre
A tight sandstone ravine with mossy walls 40 metres high, the most striking stretch of the Mullerthal Trail. It costs nothing and fits into a two-hour loop from Echternach. From the day trips guide.
Play the trail, then follow the guide
World City Trail’s Luxembourg City scavenger hunt, escape game and audio tour lead you through the old town. The guides take over when the game is done: smoked pork and broad beans at a Clausen brewpub, a free lift down to the Grund, a train to the castles of the Ardennes or a free museum for a rainy afternoon.
