Don't they speak Catalan in Andorra?
You look like Mario Batali! 😃
So much information in 11 minutes 34 seconds.
Another great, detail packed, travel video.
Thank you once again, Mark.
Great video! Little known fact about Andorra is that it's one of the few countries in the world that doesn't have its own military. It basically relies on the French and Spanish military to help them out if someone dares to play music too loudly on the streets. 😄
Man I grew up driving very hilly roads and creek roads, but nothing like the Pyrenees. Wow I'm glad I was driving..
How timely. I'm headed to the south of France in a month. I had considered trying to get to Andorra, but it is just too far of a drive from Arles. Maybe on the next trip. Your video answered many of my questions. Thanks again.
Great video👏👏👏👏👏👏

Are you a teacher you said with your students? Lol I might have to take one of your classes haha 🤣
I’d love to walk that Tibetan bridge!!
Seems like nudity would be frowned upon?
Andorra is SO beautiful! It was such a hidden gem when I visited. I definitely want to go back and explore more!
My daughter and I got a cheap flight from Toulouse to Barcelona totally skipping Andorra because we didn't really know anything about the country! Now, it's a definite must on our next trip! Thanks for highlighting a little known principality that looks really interesting and cheaper than Switzerland is always a plus!
Andorra is the only country where the one of the two rulers is voted on by another country. One of the two leaders used to be the king of France and now it’s the prime minister of France, who is of course voted on by the French citizens.
Hey fellow Scouser you finally reached Andorra
If staying in the capital, a walk along the river to the town of La Massana is well worth it!
Been to Andorra in September of 2021 and it was an amazing time, great people, great bars😉 but most Andorrans speak Catalan so best to keep that in mind👍🏼
It is an interesting and quirky country.
We spent a night in Andorra la Vella a while ago, and yes, the town has all the charm of your local shopping mall. But it's amazing how close some beautiful natural areas are – I got up at 6AM, drove 5 minutes from our hotel, did a via ferrata (a kind of cable-protected rock climb – if that Tibetan bridge scares you, so would this), arrived at a ruined chapel in a small deserted valley, and made it back to my hotel in time for the breakfast buffet.
I went to Andorra for funzees with my mother (who mainly wanted to go for duty free) & we were pleasantly surprised. It’s not as grey as it can look in video. You defo notice right away you’re not in the EU, the vibe is very different. The Main Street almost reminded me of a cruise port with all the duty free
Was in Andorra last year. Great place to visit and I did get my passport stamped. Just ask at the border, if their not really busy, they will stamp it.
One little correction, while yes, the postal service is run by the Spanish and French postal services side by side, there are special stamps for Andorra by both companies, only for international post as internal mail is free, and you can choose whether it gets routed via France or via Spain, so be careful if you want to send a postcard to put it in the right letterbox, depending on the stamps you bought. The Spanish stamps will say Correus Espanyols, the French stamps will simply say Postes.
Great video!!! New country to add to my bucket list !!!
Visited Andorra back in June. Awesome country! Hope to come back during the winter time and go skiing.
The issue is not that Andorra doesn't belong to the EU. Its the fact that its not in the Schengen area, which allows for border-free travels between countries. Switzerland, Norway, Iceland and Lichtenstein aren't in the EU either but since they are in Schengen no one checks passports.
I did visit Toulouse and the French Pyrenees last year. Andorra was not far off from there. Some nice towns there near Toulouse such as Carcassone and Ax-les-Thermes (this one for access to the mountains). Well worth a visit.
I’m going to stay with a friend in Toulouse for a 5 days in September. We might rent a car and go check out Andorra
T-Mobile works perfectly fine in Andorra and unlimited text is free of charge. You can ask to stamp your passport so you can have a "souvenir" from your trip, otherwise they don't stamp your visit. Even when Catalan is their language, most people speaks Spanish, and also English.
Today’s sad reality is that leaders of the Muslim world do not avoid Shirk nor raise awareness about this. Imam Mahdi Muhammad Qasim has seen that avoiding shirk is the only way to success and Allah’s help
I went there a few months ago. I took a day trip from Barcelona and the bus ride was beautiful. I was traveling solo and felt like there wasn't much to do in the capital. I definitely recommend taking a few days to see the smaller towns and doing some of the hikes instead.
Never even heard of it. Skiing, spas, and shopping. I'll pass.
I see that Andorra is not in the Schengen zone. Is it an option for extending time in Europe Wolter?
Andorra tiene dos coprincipes Jefes del Estado el Presidente de Francia y un obispo español, catalan😂
Has anyone already commented on the thumbnail and that the reflection of the text is messed up? That's not how reflection works….
Hey Wolter, will you be happy to make informative travel videos about Hawaii and the Hawaiian culture?
That would be very interesting for the viewers to learn about! 😀
Thanks!
