Getting to Barcelona - Transport Overview

Besides Barcelona Transport, allow me to quickly cover a couple of points which may also interest you regarding your transportation to Barcelona. You can get to Barcelona by using different transport facilities, like:

  • Plane (read about Cheap Flights to Barcelona)
  • Ship
  • Train
  • Car
  • Car and Trailer or Motorhome
  • Bus
  • Motorbike
  • Bike (well, it will be hard for you... But it is possible)
  • Auto Stop (yes, do not laugh! Why not?)

The transport facility that you choose will depend of several considerations. In some cases it will also depend of your fitness and physical conditions. But in any case there is a very important factor, which is...Your Budget!

Choose your option above and make your Budget.

Not by Plane? Think Twice!

Getting to Barcelona by car, train or bus, may not be so convenient as you think. How many passengers? Add, multiply. Do some basic Mathematics and Think Twice! Then choose your option above and make your Budget.

Coming by Car? Think Twice!

Using your car, means that you have to drive some hours, it needs gas, perhaps you have to pay tolls, make some stops to eat and possible sleep anywhere too. You have to consider parking fees for most cases, or pay good fines. It is up to you!

Coming with Car and Trailer or Motorhome? Well...

Coming with car and trailer or motorhome? Looking for campings?

OK, this is another history. In this case you are not looking to save money, but wanting to have fun and eager to visit other places too. With your family and/or friends. Just do it! Of course, you will stay outside Barcelona City.

And by Train? And by Bus?

Train can be a good option whenever you have a high speed connection and depending on how far you are from Barcelona. Euro railroads form a vast net. Trains are generally very comfortable.

Coming by Bus? Well, I am sorry, but my recommendation is that you better choose another transport facility, like the train. A bus it is not a good idea for long distance travels. In case you do not trust me, just try it. But you have been advised! Choose your option above and make your Budget.

My Best Recommendations?

They are based on my Barcelona Budget principle:

What if you do not like to fly? OK, when you come from overseas you will probably do it on a nice cruise. Remember that Barcelona Port is one of the most important cruise ports in the Mediterranean Sea.
