What driving in Andorra is like

The climb over the Port d'Envalira - one of the highest paved mountain passes in the Pyrenees - is the drive visitors most search for. For most visitors the real draw is the freedom to reach places trains and tours don't, on your own schedule, with the open road generally capped around 90 km/h open roads (no motorways). Getting behind the wheel is the easy part: your International Driving Permit is a certified translation of your Singapore licence, carried alongside it, so rental staff and officials in Andorra can read your credentials at a glance.
