Pro Tips: Wear comfy shoes—Luxembourg’s hilly streets are no joke. Book European Parliament tours online early. Skip the touristy Place de la Constitution for quieter spots like Parc de la Pétrusse for sunset views. And never miss La Petite Fleur, a hidden café in Grund for the best Quiche Lorraine (€6.50).
