Your complete guide to getting around Luxembourg - from airport transfers to local transport

Getting Around Luxembourg

Luxville's transport backbone is the national rail and bus network, which is famously free for all journeys within the country, just hop on any train or bus with a valid ID. Trains radiate from the capital's central station to every corner of the Grand Duchy, while dense city buses and the new tram line knit together the capital's hills and valleys. For door-to-door comfort, taxis are available but count as a splurge; ride-hailing apps operate too, though coverage thins outside the city. First-time visitors should download the free "Mobiliteit.lu" app: it shows combined train-bus-tram itineraries in real time and works offline. Don't buy tickets on board, they're unnecessary for domestic trips. If you're staying beyond the city, note that cross-border trains to France, Belgium or Germany still require paid supplements, so validate before boarding. From the airport, Bus 16 runs every 10, 15 minutes to the city centre and the main station. The ride is free and takes about 30 minutes. Skip the unofficial taxi touts outside arrivals, use the official rank or pre-book via an app to avoid inflated fares.
