Taxi to Andorra

Andorra is three hours from Barcelona Airport, up the C-16 through the Túnel del Cadí and over into the principality at La Farga de Moles. It is the standard arrival route for the ski season — Grandvalira, Vallnord and Pal Arinsal are all served, along with the hotels in Andorra la Vella, Escaldes, Soldeu and Pas de la Casa.

In winter the road over the last stretch can carry snow, and conditions change quickly. We watch the forecast for the pass and will tell you honestly if a departure needs moving. Ski and board carriage is not a problem, but it does need the right vehicle — say how many sets of equipment you have when you request the fare so we send a van rather than a saloon.

Andorra is not in the EU customs union, so there is a border check on the way in and, more often, a customs check on the way back with limits on tobacco, alcohol and electronics. Nothing dramatic, but the queue on a Sunday afternoon in season can be long, and we build that into the timing when you have a flight to catch.
