Transport to Barcelona<\/h2>\n
Let’s start from the beginning: what means of transport have you chosen to get to Barcelona? Do you come by plane, train, boat, own car …?<\/p>\n
By Train<\/strong><\/h3>\n![\"organizar](\"https:\/\/www.barcelonina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/station-519962_960_720.jpg\")
You will arrive to the Sants Station<\/strong> where you will find, without problem, metro, taxis and buses as well as a car rental agencies. Another railway point in Barcelona is\u00a0Estaci\u00f3n de Francia<\/strong> ( Old, but pretty, very close to Barceloneta and the Born district) but has a reduced traffic \u00a0and currently only receives national routes.<\/p>\nWe attach the\u00a0link a renfe<\/a>, the state railway company.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”Row”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_text admin_label=”By Plane” background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”left” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid”]<\/p>\n
By Plane<\/strong><\/h3>\nAlthough we have some secondary airports as Girona or Reus, it is sure that if you travel to Barcelona by plane you will arrive at El Prat international airport<\/a>.When you are organizing a trip to Barcelona you must take into account the way to get to the city center. It is about 12 kilometers from the airport so we will need to go on wheels.![\"organizar](\"https:\/\/www.barcelonina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/airport-872482_960_720.jpg\")
<\/p>\nA taxi to Plaza Catalunya<\/strong> is the most common and the cost is about 30\u20ac. The bus service\u00a0<\/a>Aerob\u00fas<\/a> allows you to do the same journey in about 35 minutes with a ticket 5.90\u20ac. Its output frequency is high so it is a good choice.<\/p>\nAnother option is to use Renfe and its service of Rodalies (Aeroport – Ma\u00e7anet-Massanes \/ Sant Celoni), which in a journey of only three stations and approximately 20 minutes will bring us to the Sants Station for 4.10\u20ac.<\/p>\n
The novelty in Barcelona’s transport network to reach the city center from the airport is line 9 of the Metro which takes you to central areas of the capital.<\/p>\n

By Bus<\/strong><\/h3>\nLooking for the cheapest<\/strong> way to travel to Barcelona, the bus is an interesting alternative. From anywhere in Spain and, of course, in Europe, you can reach Barcelona by coach.<\/p>\nThe best-known peninsular company is Alsa. Normally all services of this type are concentrated in the Estaci\u00f3n del Norte, very close to the center and with the possibility of linking with the metro network.<\/p>\n

Barcelona by Car<\/b><\/h3>\n
The private car<\/strong> is perhaps the least envisaged option for foreign tourists. Also the influx of private vehicles has fallen within the national territory, especially since the implementation of the AVE high speed train or the Euromed.<\/p>\nThe most common entrances to Barcelona are the Rondas. We do not want to fool you, parking is not easy in the city<\/strong>. A system of parking meters called Blue Zone can solve a brief parking. For the rest: Public or private parking. When organizing a trip to Barcelona take into account the mobile app to find possible places.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”Row”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Accomodation” background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”left” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid”]<\/p>\n
Once in Barcelona there is a good transport network that we will talk about on another occasion.<\/p>\n
