Set off on a full-day trip to Luxembourg, one of the less-known cities of Europe, capital of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. On your way back to Brussels, you'll also stop at Les Ardennes and the charming city of Dinant.
Description
At the indicated time, we'll depart from 18 Boulevard de Berlaimont in the centre of Brussels on a comfortable air-conditioned coach and head southeast for 200 km until we get to Luxembourg. Upon arrival, your professional guide will lead you through the upper and lower parts of the city.
First, we'll explore the historic centre in the upper part of the city and admire the Cathedral Notre-Dame and the Place d’Armes (Arms Square), the capital’s main square. Then, admire the Wenceslaus Wall, Neumünster Abbey, and the main fortifications established near the Alzette River. Before leaving Luxembourg, you’ll have free time to have lunch, have a coffee and buy souvenirs.
Next, we'll hop back on the bus and make our way to Dinant, enjoying the views of Les Ardennes, one of the most charming areas of Belgium. Here, in between the rocky massifs is embedded in the city of Dinant, a picturesque town built on the banks of the River Meuse. The city is famous for being the birthplace of the saxophone!
In Dinant, you’ll enjoy the views of the Citadel, an imposing fortress erected on the Rocher Bayard, an impressive rock that surrounds the city. Next, you’ll visit the Notre Dame de Dinant, a charming Romanesque church that has become a symbol of Wallonia. Then, you’ll cross the Charles De Gaulle Bridge, which is decorated with multicoloured saxophones inspired by the colours of the EU member states.
After visiting the Meuse Valley, we'll drive back to Brussels and drop you off at the Grand Place, next to the cathedral, after a total of 11.5 hours of touring.
