Know before you go
transport
Andorra has no airport and no train; buses run from Barcelona and Toulouse in about three hours, and winter traffic into the valley crawls on ski weekends.
connectivity
Andorra is not in the EU, so EU roaming plans do not apply and bill shock is real; switch to wifi or buy a local eSIM the moment you cross the border.
money
Andorra uses the euro and prices on electronics, tobacco, and alcohol are duty-free, but France and Spain enforce import limits at the border on busy days.
etiquette
Catalan is the official language and locals appreciate hearing it first, even just bon dia, before you fall back to Spanish or French.
