Eryn – Canada

Very fun and stunning day trip! The castles were incredible and the nature was lovely. I think I would’ve liked to do a longer hike, this was more just a quick trail. It was still great overall but I would’ve preferred to spend longer at Mullerthal. The castles were so amazing to see and it was really great that the admission to see them was included with the day trip (a lot of day trips I’ve done don’t include it). My guides Patrick (for the trail) and Ali (driver and tour guide) were incredibly nice and engaging! I had a great time attempting to speak French with them. Overall amazing trip would recommend!

Full description

Embark on a day tour and discover the history of Luxembourg, from the Middle Ages to the modern age, aboard a modern convertible bus. See the eastern region, the Mullerthal, with its charming waterfall and walking trail, admire the medieval Castles in Beaufort and Vianden, and visit Echternach, the country's oldest town.

Program of the day:


Mullerthal trail and Schiessentümpel: 


View the Schiessentümpel waterfall with its three water jets on the Black Ernz. Snap pictures at the most photographed site in the region, Luxembourg's Little Switzerland as we like to call it.



Beaufort Castle (closed from November until End-March)
Take some nice pictures as a souvenir.

Vianden Castle


Explore the north of Luxembourg, a region full of steep valleys and breathtaking views. Discover the medieval town of Vianden and its imposing castle which attracts thousands of visitors annually. Admire the imposing castle that overlooks the town and the town wall with its fortified towers.


During this stop, you'll have free time to visit the sights. We recommend that you bring a snack or a sandwich if you don't want to waste time in a restaurant. Otherwise, the time of the visit might be too short.

The old town in Echternach: 


The city of Echternach, the historical and cultural center of the region, was founded in 698 by the Benedictine Monk Willibrord and is the oldest town in Luxembourg. Admire the most beautiful places and buildings, like the St. Willibrord Basilica, the Abbey, and the market square.
