Safety: Luxembourg is generally a safe destination for travelers, but exercise caution, especially in crowded tourist areas where pickpocketing can occur. Be mindful of your belongings and avoid isolated areas, particularly at night.

Etiquette: Luxembourgers value politeness, respect, and punctuality. When greeting someone, a handshake is common. Show respect for local customs and traditions, such as addressing people by their title and last name unless invited to use their first name.
