Hi
wondered if anyone can help , first time skiing in Andorra ( been in the summer a few times) staying for 5 days over new year , been watching the web cams nervously for signs of snow now I can rest easy ! What advice for lift passes we are staying a bit away from the resort about 10 mins drive ( we are taking our car, ) , should we just come on the day we arrive to the gondola and buy on a day rate basis or book online ahead , are there any real financial savings ? any advice is welcome.
Also where would be a safe reliable place to hire a guide just for a day maybe a bit of off piste guiding ( nothing metal ) just like to get off the tracks sometimes but in a safe way ?
last question ... snow tyres ? what are the state of the roads /car parks usually , I have chains but have to change my UK tyres anyway for the winter would it be an idea to get some snow tyres anyway ? We usually ski the alps and the French roads are always clear so we only need chains but a mate said that Andorra can be more dodgy to drive in ?
cant wait to get out any other information is most welcome ,
cheers David
