Use Luxembourg's free public transport system - buses and trains are completely free for all passengers, saving $15-30 per day compared to other European cities

Shop at local supermarkets and prepare your own meals, typically 60-70% cheaper than eating out for every meal

Visit during shoulder seasons (April-May or September-October) when accommodation rates are typically 20-40% lower than peak summer

Take advantage of free walking tours and explore the many free parks, viewpoints, and historic areas instead of paid attractions

Book accommodation well in advance, as Luxembourg has limited budget options and early booking can save 25-50%

Consider staying in nearby towns in Belgium or Germany and commuting in, potentially saving 30-60% on accommodation

Pack layers and good walking shoes to avoid expensive tourist-area shopping, where prices can be 100-200% higher than regular retail

Underestimating accommodation costs - Luxembourg has some of Europe's highest hotel prices, often 50-100% more than neighboring countries

Eating only in Luxembourg City's tourist center, where restaurant prices can be 80-150% higher than in residential areas or smaller towns

Not researching free activities - many travelers overspend on tours when Luxembourg offers excellent free hiking trails, viewpoints, and city exploration

Assuming European budget norms apply - Luxembourg's high cost of living means daily budgets should be 40-80% higher than typical European destinations
