Travel Stories

Luci is not just the print magazine for Luxembourg as a travel destination; it embodies a distinct ethos, a way of life that unfolds through narratives.

Join us in exploring the deeply personal tales of triumph from Luxembourg and discovering its unique locales. Whether it's a quaint town transformed into a giant’s playground, enchanting castles that offer solace to empowered women, the labyrinthine casemates in the capital where guides and historians illuminate our path, or the slate museum where a seasoned stone craftsman acts as our guide, Luci brings these experiences to life.

Get pampered, immerse yourself in culture, pleasure, and good feelings: the finer things in life.

Discover unexpected moments in our stories.

The priority? Having a good time, simple as that.
