Direct Bus from Andorra is part of the Gold Medal Trip Report.
I booked a roundtrip journey with Direct Bus from Barcelona to Andorra. Because I ‘missed’ the bus from Barcelona to Andorra (see I Missed My Ride: Not So āDirect Busā Andorra), I made sure to get to the bus station early and to ask what time and exactly where the bus would come.
The monitor in the bus terminal pointed to where the bus would be. I took no chances and sat right under it.
When the bus that said DirectBus arrived, I attempted to board it. The driver said that my electronic ticket was no good and that I needed to go into the office and obtain a paper ticket. Anxiety set in as I became worried that as soon as I turned my back, the bus would poof! Disappear.
Luckily, that didn’t happen. The journey was smooth minus the cursory inspection at the Spanish border.
TPOL’s TIP: DirectBus picks up from BCN airport but drops off at the main train station.
