Visiting Luxembourg and its surroundings

Hi all,

here are some details about Luxembourg City and my trip there.

How to arrive:

Depending on your location you can fly directly to Luxembourg, but the airport (Findel Airport) is not that big. Being bordered by France, Belgium and Germany the easiest and cheap way to arrive is actually by taking a flight that is landing in Brussels or Frankfurt. From there you can take the trains or the shuttle buses that takes you directly to Luxembourg. 

You can get to Luxembourg City by taking City Bus no. 16. The ticket price is around 2 € for a two-hour journey. Also you can take the taxi, but it is more expensive, around 15-25 euro.

The buses operate weekdays between 5.28am and 9.09pm, every 15 minutes, and Sundays between 6.24am and 21.58pm, every 30 minute. Most buses stop nearby the center of the city or nearby the train station area. If you want to buy 10 tickets, you will receive a 20% discount.

During my trip, I took the train from Brussels Gare du Midi to Luxembourg train station. It is a very safe and nice way to see the landscape from the 2 countries.

Visiting Grenoble - France

Hello all,

welcome to my post on Grenoble.  I hope you can find useful the details i am providing.
I had the chance to visit the city in 2010. The city is not very big but it is nice to see it during a 1-2 day trip.

Location: I have stayed at Citea Aparthotels: http://www.citea.com/en/apparthotels/grenoble
It is an OK-ish hotel. The good thing about it is that it has a small kitchenette with fridge, oven, and lots of other stuff. So you can cook if you do not want to spend lots of money by eating out.
Another good thing about this hotel is the fact that it is very close to a big shopping center where you can find everything you want, including a Carrefour supermarket. So, overall this hotel has + and - points, it is not very central but because you have a tram station just in front of the hotel you can go basically wherever you want in the city.

I arrived in the city by coming first in Lyon, and from the airport i took the shuttle bus that leaves every hour to Grenoble. Final destination is the train station in Grenoble. From there in order to arrive at hotel you can take the tramway line A in direction Echiroles/Fontaine- La poya , stop is Grand`Place.
