1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your vacation?
The beauty of the Andorran Pyrenees and the stunning wildflowers. Meeting a group of diverse travelers and getting to know each other. Our guide, David, was fabulous. He literally moved the Earth to make sure we got though all of the planned trails.2. What tips would you give other travelers booking this vacation?
It's not enough to just be fit to do the hikes involved. For flat-landers like us (from Michigan), we are not used to the highly technical parts of the trails. Make sure you are comfortable with balance and very uneven and challenging terrain. Bring good hiking boots and poles (if you are used to hiking with poles).3. Did you feel that your vacation benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
We stayed at a local Andorran hotel and not a chain. We ate at local restaurants. We were all well aware that what you take into the back country, you come pack with.4. Finally, how would you rate your vacation overall?
We had fabulous hikes, a great group and amazing weather! Andorra is a beautiful little country.Penelope Law-Vinter review 4 Aug 2025
1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your vacation?
Great walks through stunning landscapes, lovely family-run hotel with relaxed vibe, lucky to be with a fantastic group of people2. What tips would you give other travelers booking this vacation?
Take walking poles for the steep descents. Bear in mind that should you have the option of a direct flight to Toulouse , there is a bus connection with Andbus (check out website for schedules) from the airport which drops you off right in front of the hotel, as an option to flying into Barcelona.3. Did you feel that your vacation benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
We ate at local restaurants, a mountain refuge hut and the hotel so yes4. Finally, how would you rate your vacation overall?
It definitely met my expectations and more. Jessica, our fantastic guide, taught us so much about Andorra. Was lucky to spend the week w/ a lovely group of people.Fabiana Forni review 24 Jul 2019

So difficult to chose! The hikes were the main highlights, because that was what attacted me the most of this trip, a personal challenge for me. The locations were amazing and the routes were always very well planned2. What tips would you give other travelers booking this vacation?
To trust the organisers and the guide, and to be ready to take on any opportunity provided to do things, try experiences and meet people. Be mindful of your ability with hiking but don't let them stop you as there will be alternatives3. Did you feel that your vacation benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
The town was small but I liked that we went to a different place every day. It was not the highest season for tourism so we provided some business.4. Finally, how would you rate your vacation overall?
An amazing experience. It was all very well organised from the start, which helped to create something great overall. The guide was truly passionate and extremely competent, the group of people had previous experience with the operator and they had helpful feedback. Also, we easily and quickly created a sense of communicty that helped made the trip even more memorale.Anne Higgins review 15 Jul 2019
