See all
For a stay of 2 to 4 days, a quiet rhythm works well. Also to be anticipated: road access only and very cashed city. A car is usually the easiest way to connect different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be checked step by step.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Capital
Andorra la Vella
Andorra la Vella Discovers itself as a valley capital, tight between mountains, shops, thermal facilities and sloping districts. It serves as a practical base, but the views to the reliefs and old urban cores give it more character than a simple city of services.
Heritage
Casa de la Vall
Casa de la Vall tells the political history of Andorra in a sober stone house, above the center of Andorra la Vella. The visit is short, but it provides a useful benchmark for understanding the country's institutional uniqueness.
Thermalism
Caldea
Caldea offers a very contemporary thermal break, identifiable to its large glass silhouette in the heart of Escaldes. The experience is best for relaxing between two days of mountain, with pools, heat and urban views of the valley.
