Luxembourg in Two Days
Home » Luxembourg » Luxembourg: A One to Three Day Itinerary » Luxembourg in Two DaysSpend your first day in Luxembourg as recommended in “Luxembourg in One Day.” In other words, spend the entire time in the capital, Luxembourg City. If you feel like one day is not enough (which is very possible), spend your second day in the city as well. Walk the entire Wenzel Walk to make sure you don’t miss any of the historic sites. At one end is the Chemin de la Corniche, which offers the city’s best views. Browse the downtown shops or explore a new restaurant.
On the other hand, we recommend getting out of Luxembourg City and exploring a different side of the country. Take a bus from the capital to one of the towns of the Ardennes, the wooded northern region of Luxembourg.
Our suggestion is that you visit Vianden, which is about thirty miles north of Luxembourg City, on the Our River—the eastern border of the country. Vianden only has two thousand residents, so it is a classic European village that you will love exploring.
In the morning, tour the town’s castle, which Let’s Go Travel Guide calls “one of the most impressive castles in Western Europe.” After lunch, rent a bike at the bus station, and head outside of the city. You could ride to the town of Diekirch (eight miles south), which has a museum commemorating the Battle of the Bulge, or simply spend a couple of hours enjoying the beautiful landscape. If you have any time left when you return the bike, you could tour Victor Hugo’s former home; otherwise, hop on the bus and return to the capital.
