Free public transport in Luxumbourg - Clervaux & Vianden
Luxembourg may not be the cheapest European country for a budget holiday, but it does offer free public transport! Trains, buses, and trams are completely free throughout the entire country. You can hop on and off whenever you like, which gives us a real sense of freedom. No more stressing about finding the right bus line or buying tickets. This made exploring feel spontaneous and fun, exactly how an adventure should be.
We have visited the following cities: Clervaux and Vianden
Sunny or rainy, we've got our umbrella ready.
📍Clervaux
Clervaux is a cute and picturesque town.
And there are lots of churches and abbeys to see and visit.
We grabbed sushi as lunch, and then it was time to move on to the next city: Vianden
The ceiling at the train station of Luxembourg City, pretty!
The train ride was surprisingly quiet, which we like. That means seats everywhere. There's also a first-class area, but that does not include the free transportation plan.
📍Vianden
We have arrived in Vianden, and what lovely weather it is here!
One of the must-see places is this fairytale-looking castle: the Vianden Castle. The Vianden Castle was built between he 11th and 14th centuries. Throughout its long and fascinating history, Vianden Castle has been home to several prominent aristocratic families and European royalty, including our royal Dutchies.
Pretty views up there.
Spooky well
The medieval kitchen always fascinates me. This dog/goat looking carafe is so cute!
After visiting Vianden Castle, you can either walk back down on foot or, even better, for a small fee, you can take the chairlift and enjoy the view from up to down there!
Even though the chairlift moved slowly, I still felt a bit nervous because of my fear of heights. But I went for it anyway, and I'm glad I did! I tried to enjoy the view as much as possible, and it truly was beautiful.
Back to Luxembourg City...
This futuristic funicular ride is also a free ride. Though it was quite a short ride, as it only takes you up and down the hill. It was still fun to experience.
Another great tip for a budget-friendly and fun holiday in Luxembourg is to check out museums that open their doors for free on certain days and times, like the MUDAM Museum. Or at least it was free back then on every Wednesday evening from 6 PM to 9 PM. I can't however find it anymore on their website.

Headed back to our hotel
But first, food in our bellies! We found this lovely Asian restaurant called Akami, which quickly became our go-to spot for supper during our last two days in Luxembourg City. Akami serves a mix of Asian cuisines, including Chinese, Japanese, and Thai dishes. So no, it’s not the most authentic spot if you’re looking for traditional flavors from one specific country, but still, the food is tasty and reasonably priced! Plus, the restaurant is clean and modern, making it a really pleasant place to sit down, relax, and enjoy a good meal.
Sushi, fried rice, and mapo tofu.
And as you can see, we have enjoyed our meal.
