Luxembourg City - Post Report Question and Answers
What are some interesting/fun things to do in the area? Can you recommend any “hidden gems"?
Too many to list. Seriously. - Jun 2017
Mullerthal trails. Herringer Millen restaurant. All the castles. The trail across from Borscheid castle, by the lake. Mondorf les Bains for the antique car show and walking around. Zoli Poney in Mergelange, Belgium: rent a shetland pony for your child for 5 euro per 30 minutes, then head off on your own self-guided tour across the fields and forests. The amazing WWII museum at Bastogne : best museum I ever visited. The museum of the city of Luxembourg: ask to ride in the "big" elevator - as big as a room, made of glass, goes down into the ramparts. The casemates. The petrusse express green tourist train. The Christmas Market by the golden lady. The kids in the City festival in the summer. etc. etc. Endless! - Mar 2016
The whole country is filled with hidden gems. Take a short drive outside the city to visit any number of castles, or take a train to a harvest festival in the north of the county, or take a drive to a charming village for lunch, or view the ruins or casemates in Luxembourg City. - Jul 2015

We love the opportunities for bicycling here. Paris is a few hours away by train. Metz (France) has the new Pompidou Centre. Wine tasting. Trier (Germany) is less than an hour from here. Patton is buried here . . . lots of WWI/WWII history in the region. - Sep 2010
Travel to neighboring counties, visit the wine/Mosel River region. - Apr 2010
