I've been to Andorra in the summer and I didn't go skiing. There was quite a lot to do although I wasn't there for that long, my advice is that only a few days in Andorra as you will get to see pretty much everything, unless you are going skiing. A good idea is travel around a bit e.g. go into Spain or France. Everything is tax free which is quite good, so if are a shopaholic like myself then this is the place to come! I'm not sure if I would go back to Andorra unless I was actually going skiing as I've seen nearly everything. There aren't any big nightclubs only restaurants with a bit of a disco but it suited us as you get to know the ...  Read the complete review

This is a big little country. I live in Barcelona, and Andorra is really close to my home. I know that is too far away from uk to go there just to go for a walk.

There are two things that are characteristic of Andorra: the landscape and the shops. The landscape is beautiful because Andorra is full of small valleys and pretty mountains. If you are walking by the city you can see at both sides big mountains that are really close because Andorra is on a valley. Shopping is one of the usual activities there. The ...  Read the complete review

In Andorra, all goods are tax-free. During my stay in Spain some time ago, my friends and I joined a half-day shopping trip to Andorra. The fare was quite reasonable at £7 per person. Our coach set off at 5am from Barcelona and crossed the border with Andorra at about 8am. After a further 10-minute drive, we arrived at a supermarket situated amongst the snowy mountains. When we were still admiring the scenery and taking pictures, all our fellow travelers had already disappeared in thin smoke. The Spanish lady who organized the trip pointed out that we only had one hour to do our shopping. We then rushed into the supermarket, pushed our trolleys frenziedly and ...  Read the complete review
