Being one of the most popular cities in the Mediterranean, Barcelona hardly needs an introduction. The cosmopolitan capital of Spain’s Catalonia region is a must-visit destination for travellers who wish to admire unique art and architecture and taste mouthwatering gastronomy but also for sports fans who want to visit the world-famous Spotify Camp Nou. Barcelona has its own airport close to the city centre but it’s also possible to fly to Girona Airport about 100 km northeast. You can then easily get from Girona Airport to Barcelona by pre-booking a private transfer, taking an airport taxi or using an intercity bus.
A taxi or a transfer from Girona Airport to Barcelona is the most convenient way to reach your destination quickly and comfortably. The trip takes around 1 hour and 10 minutes depending on traffic conditions and your destination in Barcelona and you can expect to pay an average fare of €160 for up to 4 passengers. If you’re looking for a more budget-friendly alternative, the intercity bus is the best choice as there is no direct train from Girona Airport to Barcelona. Sagalés, a local private bus company, operates daily routes from Girona Airport to Barcelona; the trip takes around 1 hour and 10 minutes and costs €19.50 per traveller, making it a good value-for-money option.
Welcome Pickups offers meet and greet services and a friendly introduction to Girona at the same price as a regular taxi. Click here to see the cost.
