About Barcelona
Barcelonaâs beginnings date back to Neolithic times. Barcelona itself was founded by a Roman colony Barcino in the 1st century BC, and the city turned into an important commercial hub for the Roman Empire. The coastal cityâs location was also highly appreciated during the medieval times, as it prospered in the maritime trade.
While the Spanish language is widely spoken in Barcelona and the Catalonian region, Catalan is the native tongue here. One of the most important turning points in Barcelonaâs history was the cultural renaissance in the 19th century. During this period, the interest in cultivating the Catalan language and literature was renewed which was previously not possible due to political suppression. The revival of the Catalan language was a nudge to protect the Catalan heritage and shape Barcelonaâs identity we know to this day.
While Madrid is Spainâs capital city, Barcelona is considered the second one, being the epicenter of Catalonian culture. As you explore Barcelona, you will bump into some of the best museums in the world, such as the Picasso Museum of Barcelona which is famous for having the most complete Picasso collection.
This Mediterranean city is also proudly home to nine UNESCO World Heritage Sites, and Gaudi has credit for four of them. While the extraordinary architecture is a symbol of the city, Barcelona is also a place for football aficionados, relaxed tourism enthusiasts who plan to lounge at the Barceloneta beach, foodies who crave some fresh Mediterranean culinary delights, and so much more. As no words can do justice to what Barcelona has to offer, you have to experience this vibrant cityâs atmosphere yourself!
From Andorra to Barcelona: travel tips
Before you pack your bags for your trip from Andorra to Barcelona, here are two handy tips to help you prepare for immersing yourself in the dynamic city of Barcelona.
### Plan to stay at least a few days
Barcelona deserves to be discovered from the north to the south, so make sure you plan more than just a day trip. The city is filled with too many treasures you cannot miss out on, once you have stepped your feet in Barcelona. Although, who said you cannot visit Barcelona more than just once? Nevertheless, one day would still not be enough.
### Pick up some basic Catalan
If you are not an Andorran and you donât speak Catalan, you can impress the locals with your newly acquired Catalan skills! While Spanish is widely spoken in the whole city and at most places, such as hotels and restaurants, and many people speak English as well, learning some basic phrases in Catalan will show your appreciation of the local culture. Here are some words and phrases that will help you shine:
Bon dia (good morning)
Si us plau (please)
Ho sento (sorry)
Disculpi (excuse me)
* Merci or GrĂ cies (thank you)
P.S. Be aware that Catalan is not a dialect of Spanish! Donât confuse these two. Locals are very proud of their distinct culture.
How to get from Andorra to Barcelona
As Andorra is located in the Pyrenees mountains, there are not as many ways to get from Andorra to Barcelona. We've broken down your options to make choosing easy.
### From Andorra to Barcelona by bus
If you're on a budget, the bus is the only public transportation option. One of the most common bus companies that will take you from Andorra to Barcelona is Andbus. The tickets cost $32 (âŹ30), and the journey typically takes around 3 hours.
You can also choose Alsa which is one of the largest bus operators in Spain. The tickets usually cost $33 (âŹ31), and, like with Andbus, you will reach Barcelona in 3 hours.
### From Andorra to Barcelona by private car service
For comfort, convenience, and an unforgettable experience, you want to book a private car transfer with Daytrip. You will be picked up at your accommodation in Andorra and then taken on a scenic ride to Barcelona. The journey takes approximately 2 hours and 40 minutes.
Your local English-speaking driver will load your luggage and regale you with local insights during the ride. Even better, you can immerse yourself in Catalonia by stopping for sightseeing along the way.
It is a great opportunity to reach Barcelona, as no other transport will give you the chance to explore en route. As Daytrip will handle everything, you will avoid dealing with public transport or overpaying for taxi services.
### From Andorra to Barcelona by rental car
If you are an experienced driver, you might consider renting a car for your trip from Andorra to Barcelona but you have to be prepared for mountainous terrain. It might not be the best option if you are not used to such roads. You also have to consider additional costs, such as rental fees, tolls, fuel costs, and parking once you reach Barcelona (if this isn't a return trip).
### From Andorra to Barcelona by taxi
If you donât want to schedule a private car transfer in advance, pay online, have a guaranteed English-speaking driver, or stop for sightseeing, you can also opt for a taxi. It is the most expensive way to reach Barcelona and lacks the benefits and guaranteed service quality of Daytrip. So while it is possible, it is not recommended.
Things to do when you get to Barcelona
While it is hard to choose just a handful of things to visit or do once you reach Barcelona, we assure you these recommendations will be the highlight of your trip:
### Admire Gaudiâs masterworks
Antonio Gaudi, the most famous Catalan, has left a rich heritage that not only keeps attracting many visitors each year but also symbolizes Barcelona. The famous Sagrada Familia, Park GĂźell, Casa Mila, and Casa Vicens should all be at the top of your itinerary. You can either explore these architectural jewels on your own or book a tour that will tell you more about the meaning and history behind each masterpiece.
### Experience the bustling La Rambla
You simply can't miss strolling down La Rambla. The famous tree-lined pedestrian boulevard is situated at the heart of the city and invites visitors to soak in the vibrant atmosphere, street performances, and so much more. It's a place that must be experienced to be understood! You will also find there the La Boqueria market which is popular among both visitors and locals, as it offers quality and diversity.
### Soak in the beauty of Barcelona from above
For the best panoramic views of the magical Barcelona, you must visit MontjuĂŻc Hill. Be prepared for many stairs which might seem discouraging at first but the views are totally worth it! It also looks magical in the evening, especially if a street musician happens to be there, adding a charming atmosphere, as you soak in the stunning cityscape.
### Savor the local cuisine
No trip can end without trying all the possible local culinary delights. Here are some of the dishes you must try before you leave Barcelona:
Fideua: the Catalan response to Valenciaâs paella. Instead of rice, pasta (fideos) is used as the main ingredient of the dish.
Esquiexada de Bacalao: a traditional Catalan dish that mainly consists of cod, tomatoes, onion, black olives, and olive oil.
* Crema Catalana: those with a sweet tooth will love this creamy pudding-type dessert. While you might have tried it somewhere else before (maybe as creme brulee), there is nothing like Crema Catalana from Barcelona.
When is the best time to visit Barcelona
While Barcelona is the perfect destination all year round and it entirely depends on what your itinerary looks like, the best time to visit Barcelona is usually in May when the temperatures are not too high and there are fewer crowds. In May, the usual temperature is around 68°F (20°C). Visiting in the fall months (September and October) is also a great time to explore Barcelona with fewer tourist crowds.
On the other hand, if you are looking for a festival-filled experience and you donât mind the crowds and possibly higher prices, July and August are perfect months to travel to Barcelona. Keep in mind that in this period the average temperature is around 82°F (28°C).

âI used this service for a transfer from Split in Croatia to Perast Montenegro. My experience was exceptional. My driver Bojan was helpful, informative and ensured my journey was comfortable and enjoyable. I highly recommend the service.â
âWe were extremely satisfied with the quality of service we received from Day Trip. We had two Day Trip rides on August 31 from Athens to Lefkada and September 7 from Lefkada back to Athens. Both trips included stops at scenic sites in Greece. Both drivers were excellent and accommodating. However, weâd especially like to recognize Panos Peppas, who was our driver from Lefkada to Athens. Panos was incredibly nice & pleasant and delivered outstanding customer service, which included handling all of luggage, providing us with cold waters throughout the trip, providing us protein bars, providing us with printed materials on the Corinth Canal (one of scenic stops), looking up and providing us with terminal & gate info for our flight back home and providing us with a recipe for tzatziki.â

âWe absolutely love this company and have used it many times over the years to get from A to B without the hassle of hiring a car ourselves. Excellent drivers every time. Efficient and professional. Itâs worth every penny and we can honestly recommend Day Trip to everyone. Itâs 5 star rating is well deserved.â
âWe traveled from Nuremberg to Munich in a beautiful Audi. Driver picked us at our hotel at the exact time requested. Got us to Munich in plenty of time for our next tour. Driver made sure we were comfortableâ
âGonzalo from daytrip was our driver and he was absolutely amazing. He went over and beyond trying to locate us as our service wasn't so good on our phones. He patiently awaited our arrival to the lobby so he could take us from Tulum Dreams Resort to our other hotel in cancun an hour and a half away near the airport prior to our departure flight home. He was polite, respectful and kind. Made sure we were comfortable during our long ride. Fast and to the point. I recommend this company as finding a one way ride from Tulum to Cancun isn't easy or cheap and this company provides a great service for a great price. I will definitely be using them again whenever I'm in the Cancun/Tulum area. Thank you DayTrip and Gonzola.â
âWe were picked up by Marianna to drive us from Heraklion to Chania. The weather was terrible & due to this Marianna arrived a few minutes late. She contacted me to advise of this. Marianna lives in Chana and she made our trip very interesting by informing us of local things to do and see in Chania. Marianna is a safe driver and we all felt comfortable with the speed she drove at and how good her driving was in heavy rain. She is a lovely person with fluent English. We highly recommend Daytrips and if you are in Heraklion or Chania please make sure you ask for Marianna.â
âUsed the service to go from Luxor to Hurghada, Egypt. Ahmed H was our driver and he was perfect. The car was new, clean, he had water and snacks for us, and accommodated our stops. Great service from him and would recommend it.â
âUsed Daytrip for two rides in Mexico, which were both great. So comfortable, and we arrived at each of our destinations at a great time. Both were incredible drivers, and we felt so safe. One of our drivers, Miguel, also played the best music! Will definitely use Daytrip on our next trip to Mexico.â
âMy husband and I got 2 transfers with day trip. First from Barcelkna to Andorra with a stops, one in Monserrat and another one in Castle follit de la roca. The driver was very nice and try to please us all the time, same with the driver from Andorra to Bordeaux. Very nice experience.â
âWe had a great day trip with a very knowledgeable driver, Pere, who made sure we had a great visit to
Montserrat and an amazing lunch in Andorra. Weâll definitely do a day trip again on our next trip to Europe. It makes it possible to see so much more. And coordination via the web was easy.â
