From Barcelona to Andorra Small Guided Group Day Tour, Barcelona

Andorra is an independent country between Spain and France, with an unique history, nature, gastronomy and heritage which makes this daytrip one of the most interesting ones to rest a bit during your stay in the crowded Barcelona.

If you DON'T want to spend 13 or more hours in a bus being driven by 3 different countries in one day, you would rather prefer being part of an exclusive tour to Andorra. So, please, don't expect to find a big deppartment store or a mall, because Andorra is much more than that.

PS: If you really want to pass by France we can do it for an extra payment (free from 4 pax). It is recommended especially to watch the beauty of the drive in Berguedà and La Cerdanya, still in Catalonia (Spain) and entering Andorra after driving a few miles through France.

Mandatory PASSPORT (not driving license or national ID) for all the passengers coming from non-EU countries.

Itinerary

1

Pont de la Margineda It is a medieval bridge from XIV century. It is flowing water underneath all year around. The vegetation is different in each season. It is located in the south of the country, near the Spanish border about 850 meters above the sea level. Near the bridge is known used to live the first inhabitants in the current territory of Andorra, about 12,000 years ago.

Duration: 15 minutes

2

Casa de la Vall It is an old house where took place the Andorra's government since 1580 till 2011. The entrance to the place is voluntary, and costs 5 €. If some of the members are not interesting in Casa de la Vall, they can spend 1 hour doing shopping and walking up the streets of the Andorra la Vella Old Town.

Duration: 60 minutes

3

Mirador del Roc del Quer This is a spectacular view point located about 1,950 meters above the sea level. From this place we can see a tin sculpture representing a man watching the views surrounded by a bottom glass platform. The mountain views belong to the Canillo parish: capital town and some of their surrounding like some picks and ski runs. The top of the mountains will have some snow at least 10 months of the year. It is an optional stop and the cost is 5€ per person (not included; if the cafe is closed they will only accept cash payment in euros).

Duration: 30 minutes

4

Coll d'Ordino The name of this attraction is just Ordino. A small village, capital of one of the seven municipalities of Andorra. In Ordino we can walk up in the narrow streets where we can see some XVII century homes, a nice church, famliy homes, and even a few cafes in the main street. I can also show you another charming village in Andorra, smaller than Ordino and with almost no services, but it will be a secret between you and me.

Duration: 45 minutes

5

Santuario de Meritxell There are two sanctuaries. The old one which was burnt in 1972 and the new one built by Ricardo Bofill in 1976. It is the main sanctuary for the whole country and we will see Our Lady of Meritxell, the Andorra's patron saint. For the one who prefer watch a really old church built in the middle ages I can recommend you Sant Miquel d'Engolasters (XII century) or Santa Coloma (late VIII-early IX century), this last one cost 7€ and includes a small museum with an audiovisual experience and shows three old paintings XII-XIII, ripped out in XX century from andorran churches but recovered by the country.

Duration: 30 minutes
