Here is a summary of how to get to Amiga Barcelona B&B. If you would like more information, check out the Barcelona city website which has a wealth of really useful information at: http://www.bcn.es/turisme/english/turisme/welcome.htm

 

 From Girona airport

This is not the main airport in Barcelona City but it is becoming increasingly popular due to the increased number of low cost airlines now flying into it. It is located on the outskirts of Girona city and 60 km/38 miles north of Barcelona.

From Girona airport there is a Barcelona Bus running to the centre of Barcelona (70 minutes) which operates immediately after flight arrivals. This service is run by a local bus company called Sagalés whose timetable is determined by the expected arrival time of Ryanair flights. It is NOT provided by Ryanair themselves so don't assume that a Ryanair flight will wait for you if you are on this bus heading back for Girona, it won’t! The cost of the service is 12€ one way and €21 go-return. Their timetable (which is in Catalan) appears online or look at the website for more information www.barcelonabus.com


Once you arrive in the Barcelona's main bus terminal, Estació del Nord (Carrer d'Ali Bei 80) you can walk about 10 minutes to metro station Metro Arc De Triomf (Red Line,L1) from where you can travel to get to our B&B.Remember to check it because the timetable changes in winter and in summer.

 

Important: Also be aware that there are 2 different Barcelona Buses which are both operated by the same company. Make sure to catch the right bus!. One bus leaves Girona Airport and goes directly to Barcelona (and vice versa) the other bus only leaves from Girona centre and goes to Barcelona (and vice versa) make sure you're catching the right Barcelona Bus.

 

There is also a shuttle bus from the airport to Girona's central Train station (2,50 €, return ticket 4,80 €). From here, there are regular train connections to Barcelona.

You can expect to be in Barcelona in about one hour and half. The price could be around 20 €.
