Discover Luxembourg’s terroir in an original way: Visit the National Brewery! Our guided tour will give you a wide overview of all the brewing stages of our famous "Bofferding" and "Battin" beers which became an historical success of a family owned business. During the tour you will be able to touch and smell the raw matierals, plus you'll get to taste the pureness of the water we brew our beer with. Our passionned guide will offer you a tasty surprise just before handing to our partner restaurant "An der Brauerei" next door to enjoy our special beer tasting. The visit of the National Brewery does not only ensure you a 100% natural beer, but also a discovery experience about the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg's history and savoir-faire. And make sure to smile for the camera, a souvenir is always welcome!

We made the easy journey from Luxembourg to Bascharage via bus and enjoyed a drink in the brewers bar before the 3pm tour. We were fortunate enough that there were other English guests and so the guide conducted the tour in English. The tour was very interesting and informative, on the way around the site we were offered the chance to try the water the brewery pumps for the beer production, a sample of the unfiltered beer and a schnapps product all while learning the history and current practices. After the tour we returned to the bar for a tasting of 4 products (Bofferding Pils, Battin Gambrinus, Battin Blanche & Battin Fruitée). For €12 it was an excellent tour and very easy to reach from the city.

Last minute activity at the end of our holiday, and I’m so glad we went! The exhibition/gallery was free of charge and showcased great pieces of work. Even if you don’t enjoy art museums or galleries you will enjoy and appreciate the art work on display. Defo recommend if you have an hour or two to spare!

Philharmonie Luxembourg in all it's beauty would have deserved to have been built on top of a mountain, to be seen from far away. At a first glance its more than 800 white columns somehow look like the strings of an exotic instrument which makes the building a true house of music. When you walk around the elliptical foyer and are so lucky to have a clear sky and the sun shining into the foyer from the south you are blessed with the most wonderful shadow-play created by the shadows of the offset columns which surround the foyer in rows of 2 and 3. Walking up the ramp inside the foyer reveals impressive seemingly insurmountable ravines, reminiscent of Vauban's architecture which gave Luxembourg-city some of it's characteristic looks. The acoustic inside is absolutely fabulous. Christian de Portzemparc has really placed a true gem among buildings that do make it stand out, not only because of it pure White color or because of its it's atypical shape but due to their "functional, sterile contemporary ugliness". Do not miss this beauty when in Luxembourg.

Located in the very heart of Luxembourg City on a UNESCO world heritage classified itinerary the unique architectural ensemble has witnessed four-hundred years of historical upheaval (as military bastion, orphanage or prison) and is since 2004 dedicated to cultural projects and festivals as well as commercial and large-scale events. Its 13.000 sqm welcome thousands of guests, artists and tourists at nearly 500 organised events a year.

During my visit to Grund, there was no missing how much this building serves as a magnet for the community. Several events were in full swing and the whole space was buzzing with locals (with a few tourists like me amongst them). The building itself is hugely impressive, but despite its imposing size, it didn't feel cold and impersonal.

Excellent theatre venue with good sight lines and very good sound system. Bar is inefficient so sprint. out at interval to get a drink. Toilets are immaculate. Restaurant outside theatre is good but needs pre-booking. Access to theatre is very good with both trams and buses. Or even walking!

I paid a visit with my wife to the tramway museum in Luxembourg City one Sunday afternoon recently. However,being a visitor to Luxembourg I was unsure of quite how to get to the museum,so I cheated and I hired a taxi from the city centre at the Gare Centrale costing 11 euros which took less than ten minutes to take us to the tramway museum. Returning to the city centre later from the museum,we were advised to catch the bus back from the bus stop at Bouillon (we travelled back by a No.1 bus) which is about a five minute walk away from the museum which worked well for us,but I'd suggest that you do ask for directions to the bus stop before leaving the museum if you're unsure of the area as it is a quiet part of town and there were very few people to ask directions from in the street when we did this. The museum is well worth a visit should you be a transport enthusiast,or should you be seeking an interesting attraction to occupy and entertain your children, and once you've arrived at the tram museum you'll find an interesting display of old trams all of which had been wonderfully preserved,together with many exhibits ranging from models in their display cabinets to exhibits of ancient electrical equipment and signs and so on . .. In fact if it's to do with trams - it's there! Admission is free,and the curator on duty kindly took all the visitors present including ourselves on a short ride in a old tram in the yard outside the museum which was most enjoyable and a great experience too. I feel that you need to be a transport enthusiast to enjoy the museum to the full which I certainly did, but my wife who I cannot reasonably expect to be interested in public transport surprised me by saying on the way back to our hotel that she had enjoyed Luxumbourg's tramway museum very much indeed. In my opinion it's recommended,especially if you're interested in transport, but do check before you go as it's not open every day. Do take your wife along with the kids, you may well be pleasantly surprised just as I was!

The lift gives excellent views over the valley and is a free ride. It takes only about 20 seconds to make the drop and the views are breathtaking.

I love this place. Great restaurant (really good food, but quite expensive) the bar (lovely, especially during summer), the concert room (not too big and good acoustics) and all the different kind of events (sports, being together, fashion, music,..)
