City Escape: Andorra Day Trip in Barcelona - 27222ff9c5e47eea8cf65f4cd74c3593

Enjoy your trip to the max by experiencing the treasures of Andorra. Explore the region's beauty and be delighted by the different highlights and hidden gems you'll encounter along the way.

Forget about hopping on a tourist bus and let a local take you through Andorra; your way! Spend the day discovering what other highlights lie outside Barcelona - trust us, they are worth the visit! As your knowledgeable host takes you on a fascinating road trip where the route is as scenic as it gets, you'll make frequent stops to check out the surprises this area has to offer.

Visit some of the numerous churches in Andorra, including the ancient Santa Coloma. Here you can also explore the side museum 'Espai Columba' where you can see original medieval frescos from Andorran churches like Santa Coloma and Sant Esteve.

See from the Meritxell sanctuary, Mirador del Roc del Quer, and Santa Coloma church, plus many spectacular views along the way. Optional stops can include the Sanctuary of Meritxell (free entrance), Mirador del Roc del Quer, and Pont Tibetà, a Tibetan bridge made of iron.

During summer, there is also the possibility of hiking to natural lakes, which is a fantastic option for sport and nature lovers.

'Casa de la Vall,' the old Andorran parliament active from 1580 to 2011 and now a museum, is a must-see. It's the best way to quickly understand why Andorra became a country, and it is located in the capital town, Andorra la Vella. Another point of interest is 'Vall d'Incles,' a beautiful valley in the north of the country, which is not accessible in winter.

In case of cold weather or snow, your local host can adjust the itinerary to include other interesting points, especially from November to March.

Finally, let's not miss out on traditional Andorran food at a 'Borda' (Barn), an old farming house where you can enjoy the local cuisine.

Please note that not the entire itinerary can be completed, but your preferred stops and activities can be discussed during the drive to Andorra with your local host.

With convenient pick-up and drop-off, all you have to do is sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride! Choose your local host for the day, each offering a unique journey based on their passions and expertise, and tailored to your interests.

Antonio was very good. He told us a lot about the places we visited and catered to us. We visited several towns in Andora. We lucked out with the weather so we were able to the mountains and saw some snow in the upper parts. He spoke good English and I would recommend him. There is a lot of places to see but this was a quick glimpse of this beautiful country. Glad we choose him..Excellent Tour

When i was searching how i would plann my trip to Andorra from Barcelona, my bigges issue was, i only had 1 day, so ineould have to maie the most of it. So i found With locals, that proposed a private tour where i could costumize acording to my needs. Thats exacly what happened. We where able to reach diferent parts of Andorra, not only the main city, we went to pictoresque smaller villages and scenary. Tony knows the place as the palm of his hand, so you make the plan and he makes it happen. If you dont have many days to spare, and you really wanna know the country, not just the shops at the center (wich we still did go by the way), i believe this is your best option!Tony makes you see a whole country in 1day

Day 2 of traveling with Antonio was excellent! He took us to Andorra and customized our visit to focus on great food, beautiful views, and history. Antonio's lunch recommendation was outstanding with authentic food and warm hospitality. The historical sites we visited gave us a true sense of Andorra and were extremely nice museums for being small and rural. The museums were thoughtfully designed to really orient visitors to Andorra. We highly recommend a road trip to Andorra with Antonio.Tge best of Andorra with Antonio

We loved our tour of Andorra!! Antonio was so knowledgeable and has such a passion for the area. We learned so much over the 11 hours we were with him! He’s also very flexible and will adjust to your needs (my family needed food often! ) We went into Andorra thinking it’s main attraction was shopping and came away enchanted by the small villages and unique stories Antonio had to tell. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again with him for ANY tour! We loved our tour with Antonio!

Visiting Andorra with Antonio was a perfect experience from start to finish. We were looking for a way to experience the beauty of the Pyrenees, the culture and history of the country, with some hiking along the way, and this trip delivered on all accounts. Antonio is extremely knowledgeable and interested in making the day exactly what we wanted. He is high energy and we had great conversations in the car while going to and from Andorra. We visited Andorra la Vella as well as some other small towns and took the audioguide tour of the old Parliament building. We were quite surprised with how well organized and interesting our visit was to a very old church with accompanying museum. We made it high up into the mountains to an incredible lookout, and we hiked a short/medium trail with beautiful views of the mountains and lakes. The trails are easily modifiable based on how much hiking you want to do. Would recommend doing the restaurant option for lunch to try some authentic food at a quaint restaurant up in the mountains. Couldn't believe how much we fit into one day! Thank you, Antonio! Will definitely take more tours with you during future trips to Spain! Jeff, Sara, Jennifer, and MattOutstanding day trip to Andorra

Antonio was so much fun! Some of our travelers had difficulty with hiking and hills and steps, and he was as accommodating, patient and kind about our slowness and needs. He took us to a lovely local restaurant with delicious, fresh food, but he gave us so many options along the way for us to choose the best trip for us and our needs. He knew the area really well, he was a good driver, and we had some great conversations, not just about touring, but about life! Highly recommend him. Knowledgeable, patient, and accomodating

Antonio is such an amazing individual! Not only he gave us a memorable day trip to Andorra, he provided us with many facts and knowledge about the country. His character is impeccable. He arrived promptly at our hotel lobby and introduce himself, where we then head out. He made multiple stops to different places that were not on our itinerary just for us to indulge in the experience of this beautiful country. I wish they made an “Antonio” in every country. A phenomenal experience

She went above and beyond to prepare us for our time together and really listened to our needs in setting up the experience. If you are looking for a Barcelona guide who knows her stuff and you will actually enjoy hanging out with - someone who can go deep, or keep it fun and fascinating - look no further!Way beyond expectations!

We were joining a larger group tour 2 days after our arrival in Barcelona. We asked Alessandro to arrange a walking tour that would visit other areas of the city and not overlap the group tour itinerary. We also asked to arrange a day trip out of Barcelona. After providing our interests, we left the rest to him. He provided a suggested itinerary and reserved the entry tickets and train tickets ahead of time so that everything went smoothly His educational background in history was obvious. We could not have been more pleased with our 2 days with Alessandro! We highly recommend his services to others Great Guide!

This was the day of the big blackout and, even with that, she made the very best of it and took us to spots we would not have seen otherwise.

A friend recommended the WithLocals experiences so we booked a food tour with Brendan. We started with some churros and chocolate then had a beautiful walk through the old city down to the beach. Brendan was very knowledgeable about the history of this part of Spain. We wandered the streets looking for images of St. George and the dragon. We finished up at a very locals-only tapas bar where we sampled the local cuisine. I would recommend this experience and we thought that Brendan was very personable and his knowledge of the history and food of Catalan were a real plus. Great history and food

This tour was absolutely fantastic and just what we were looking for. We got to see the monastery before there were huge crowds which was ideal. And then we started our hike up the mountain.

I booked a tour of Sagrada Familia with Alessandro as a way to celebrate my husband's 65th birthday. It was his first time in Spain and I wanted to do something really special on the big day. I had never before scheduled a private tour without going through a hotel concierge so I wasn't sure what to expect, but am SO glad that I went this route and will definitely do so again in the future! Alessandro is kind, knowledgable, and passionate about history, art and culture. He made our time fun, interesting and incredibly memorable. I made a few requests in advance of our time together, and Alessandro was more than happy to oblige. He responded promptly to chat messages, we met him right on time, he got us past all the lines, handled the purchasing of our tickets in advance, and gave us tons of insight and information we would not have otherwise had. The process was smooth and everything was easy, which is just what you want when you're on vacation. The whole experience added such a lovely depth and richness to our visit to Sagrada Familia, and Barcelona overall, and made my husband's birthday all the more special and unique. If you are going to Barcelona and want a more in-depth experience, don't hesitate to schedule a tour with Alessandro, you will be SO glad that you did! Thank you, Alessandro, for such a wonderful experience - it was far beyond my hopes and expectations, and my husband was totally blown away as well. Muchas gracias and πολλά ευχαριστώ!Alessandro is a true gem!
