Luxembourg

Two-day city break in Luxembourg's medieval old town and castles

Illustration of Luxembourg

Railtour Suisse's two-day break centres on Luxembourg, a small country wedged between France, Belgium, and Germany. You spend one night in a four-star hotel in the capital and explore the UNESCO-protected old town, whose medieval fortifications include the Bock and Petruss casemates, kilometre-long underground defence tunnels carved into the stone. The package highlights Vianden Castle, one of Europe's most carefully restored medieval fortresses, and invites you to sample regional cuisine and Crémant wines from local villages alongside Michelin-starred restaurants. The itinerary balances history and culture with food and wine; it suits couples seeking a short cultural break, history enthusiasts drawn to medieval fortifications, and travellers who want to taste a lesser-known European destination without lengthy travel.
