Why Luxembourg should be your next city break
Luxembourg is one of the most underrated cities in Europe. It receives little attention yet is one of the most picturesque places I’ve visited. It’s size, prettiness and ease make it one of the best city break destinations in Europe and here’s why!
Easy journey
Luxembourg is a hop, skip and jump away from London. Multiple flights depart daily from London City Airport which is the most convenient airport for all Londoners. Flights are cheap and when you arrive the other side, the airport isn't far from the city centre. With early morning and late night departures you could easily visit Luxembourg in a day. How easy!

Location
Bordered by France, Belgium and Germany, this tiny country has been influenced by all three. Only in Luxembourg is it normal to indulge in French cheese, German bread and Belgian beer in one meal.
