Travel Andorra, has anyone been here?

[winkwinx]

Hello,

I'm planning a trip in Spring to go to Barcelona and Paris. Last time I was in Paris, I went a little crazy shopping and bought another luggage to take home all my stuff with me. The lure of tax-free shopping is intruiging and I was wondering if it is worth the trip or should I just shop again in Paris and just get tax back?
Thank you!

I have been there.
And I was not really impressed ....

Thank you. May I know how long you stayed here and how are the shopping options? Do they sell luxury brands here like Prada, Chanel, Chloe, Rimowa, etc?

Well, I did not buy anything there.

I was more or less shocked and taken aback by the loud and aggressive commercialism there.

And the long lines of cars of those people, who drive hundreds of miles into the mountains - just in order to get their cigarettes a few cents cheaper.

I agree. Its not worth visiting just for shopping. You go to Andorra for skiing or hiking. There's not reason to leave Paris if you want to shop.

Have you thought of Biarritz? Not duty free but would make a relaxing change from Paris.
