Luxembourg is a tiny country that doesn’t always appear on travel bucket lists. But the land of Luxembourg is arguably the most important in Europe on a square foot basis. It’s no surprise then that an increasing number of European travelers are visiting thai country, many of which are now crossing its borders using long-distance coaches.

Luxembourg is the seat of several European Union (EU) institutions. Luxembourg City, the capital, is also one of the union’s institutional seats, along with Frankfurt, Strasburg, and Brussels. As a result, it usually attracts a lot of business travelers, as well as tourists who flock here to see the medieval architecture.

But that’s not the only thing that makes Luxembourgers unique. It is also the only country in the world to offer free public transport. We’re not just talking about the odd tram system, either. If you are taking a train, tram, or bus in Luxembourg—one that begins and ends in the country—it will be completely free. You don’t even need any Luxembourg bus tickets.

You will, of course, need to purchase bus tickets if you are taking an intercity coach out of the country or you’re entering Luxembourg from a bus route that began in another country. That’s where we come in, as you can book external Luxembourg bus tickets directly through Omio. The booking process is fast and simple, and as you can compare prices from many different bus companies and routes, you’ll always get a great deal.

Main Bus companies in Luxembourg

As noted above, the main bus networks in Luxembourg are known as AVL, TICE, and RGTR, and they are all part of the free public transport system. But there are also many other countries offering bus services into Luxembourg, including continental-wide companies and ones that are based in neighboring nations.

FlixBus is probably the biggest of these. It’s a massive company that runs thousands of routes all over the world, including major intercity bus routes and night bus routes. If you’re searching for cheap bus tickets into Luxembourg from another European country, there’s a good chance this provider will pop up.

FlixBus has very affordable routes and runs a network of modern buses fitted with all of the amenities that you need for a long trip, including luggage storage, power outlets, Wi-Fi, comfortable seats, lots of legroom, and onboard toilets.

BlaBlaCar Bus is another provider that can take you by bus into Luxembourg. It also covers many routes and uses modern buses. As with Flixbus, these buses also have plenty of space for luggage, onboard restrooms, Wi-Fi, and power sockets.

Most long-distance buses are also air-conditioned.

Bus Routes into Luxembourg

The providers above cover many buses to Luxembourg, getting you to this small but affluent nation from countries like France, Belgium, Germany, and the Netherlands. You can also arrive at a Luxembourg bus station from cities in Portugal. It’s a long trek, but it’s an important one, as many Luxembourgers hail from Portugal and still have family there.

Some of the popular routes into the country include:

  • Maastricht to Luxembourg: A cheap route that takes you direct to Luxembourg. It usually takes less than 3 hours and you can book with Flixbus.
  • Prague to Luxembourg: You will likely need to transfer if you’re taking this route, as it covers a lot of road. It’s a cheap way to travel between these two routes though. For the days that we checked, buses were between 4x and 6x cheaper than flights and around 50% cheaper than trains.
  • London to Luxembourg: Available through providers like Flixbus, this is a surprisingly cheap route. It usually takes you through Paris, where you will likely need to stop for a transfer.
  • Brussels to Luxembourg: This is a short route that takes less than 2.5 hours and is available through providers like BlaBlaCar bus. It’s an eco-friendly and low-cost way to travel between these two cities.
  • Liège to Luxembourg: Available with BlaBlaCar Bus and Flixbus, this route takes between 2 and 3 hours. It’s cheap and there are multiple connections every day so you can book at a time that suits you.
  • Vienna to Luxembourg: Providers like Flixbus offer occasional direct connections between these two locations. It’s a long ride and usually takes around 16.5 hours, but it’s the cheapest way to cover this distance and you can sleep through most of the journey.
  • Rome to Luxembourg: Another long, low-cost journey, this one often requires a transfer in Switzerland and is available via Flixbus.
  • Porto to Luxembourg: There is no direct bus route for this one, so you will need to transfer. There are night trains and intercity trains that can take you most of the way, though, and you’ll get to see large parts of France and Spain as you travel.

Book bus tickets on all of these Luxembourg buses and more using Omio.

Night Buses in Luxembourg

Some of the routes mentioned above require you to stay onboard for upwards of 10 hours. One of them spans the entire day. That’s a long time to sit in a bus seat staring out of a window, right? Well, yes, but bus services like Flixbus know this, so most of their long-distance services are available as night buses.

In many cases, you will board these buses in the evening, giving you time to settle down—watch a film, read a book, get acquainted with your surroundings—before night dawns and you go to sleep. The bus will continue traveling throughout the night so that when you wake, you’ll be in your destination.

Night buses provide the same creature comforts as intercity buses, but during the evening, the lights turn off, the seats recline, and you sleep.

The term “night bus” also has another meaning in Luxembourg. Every night, the regular bus network stops and a night bus network takes over. These buses are the same as the ones that run during the day, but they accommodate night-time passengers and run from 9:30 pm until 3:30 am. You may hear the Flixbus night bus service referred to as “overnight buses” to avoid confusion.

FAQs

Are public buses really free in Luxembourg?

Yes, and it has been that way since 2020. Everyone in the country can get on and off these buses as they please—no tickets, no fee. The same is true for trams and trains. There are first-class tickets available and travelers pay a subscription fee for these, giving them even more convenience and access to additional amenities. But it’s not necessary. You can get anywhere you need to go in Luxembourg using public transport and it won’t cost you a single cent.

How can Luxembourg afford to offer free public buses?

It’s a small country. It’s also a rich country. So, not only is the cost of abolishing transport fees cheaper in Luxembourg than it would be in a country like Germany or France, but they can seemingly afford to absorb the cost. Furthermore, they didn’t make a great deal of money from the public transport system in the first place and clearly believed that the benefits of providing free transport would offset the cost. It was an admirable move, and while it's unlikely that many—if any—countries will follow suit, it certainly sets a very interesting precedent.

How late do buses run in Luxembourg?

Standard Luxembourg buses run from the morning until the night, after which the night bus service takes over. Night buses typically run from 9:30 pm until 3:30 am. After this, there is no service available for a short time and then the regular bus service takes over to accommodate commuters.

Is Uber in Luxembourg?

As of early 2024, Uber is not available in Luxembourg. It is available in neighboring counties, but not within Luxembourg itself. It has been said that potential taxation issues and regulatory concerns are keeping the service out of the country. It also seems somewhat counterproductive for the state to allow a large taxi service into the country after it has invested so much on reducing the number of cars on the road and encouraging more people to take buses, trams, and trains.

Are airport buses also free in Luxembourg?

Yes, there are regular bus services connecting to Luxembourg Airport, and just like other buses that run within the country, they are completely free. Acquaint yourself with the schedule, find out where the buses go, and see if they can take you to your accommodation or another destination.

How easy is it to get around Luxembourg?

It is very easy to travel around Luxembourg. Huge sums of money have been invested in its public transport network, and there are bus routes serving all towns and villages in the country. There are also lots of buses and trains connecting neighboring countries. It means that wherever you need to go in Luxembourg, you should be able to get there quickly, cheaply (or free of charge), and with minimal fuss.

Do I need to take Luxembourg buses, can’t I just walk?

A lot of tourists underestimate just how big Luxembourg is. It might be a very small country, but it’s still a country, not a village. You can stroll around the street and take in all of the landmarks and beautiful buildings, but if you want to travel across multiple areas, you will need a form of transport. The country is 57 km (35 mi) wide and 82 km (51 mi) long, so unless you’ve got a few days to kill and some really hard-wearing shoes, it’s not walkable.

Is Luxembourg friendly for tourists?

Yes, definitely. It welcomes a lot of tourists every year, from those that take a bus to Luxembourg from neighboring countries to those that fly in via Luxembourg Airport. It has lots of great landmarks to see and attractions to explore, and there is some great food here as well. Luxembourg is heavily influenced by Portuguese cuisine, as well as French and German, and all of this combines to create some amazing restaurants and cafes.

Are buses to Luxembourg cheap?

Yes. When compared to trains and flights, as well as the price of fuel for road trips, buses in Luxembourg are incredibly cheap. You will spend a little longer traveling, but you won’t need to wait around at the airport like you would with a flight and you will be sitting in comfort throughout the journey. If you are traveling on a budget, or just want to save more of your travel money for food, attractions, and memory-making vacation moments, you can’t ignore the bus network.
