Before getting in the taxi, confirm with the driver if there will be a fixed fare or if they will use the taximeter.

Convenience

Getting from Girona Airport to Blanes by bus is a great budget-friendly alternative to an airport taxi, ideal if you want to spend less on transportation. However, this option doesn’t allow for much flexibility as bus departures from Girona Airport aren’t frequent. Also, the bus will leave you at the bus station in Blanes so you’ll need to walk or find additional transportation to reach your hotel or apartment.

Editor’s Note

The bus is a convenient option for solo travellers and light packers as it involves changing routes and possibly walking to reach your final destination. If you're travelling with multiple luggage or young children, this isn't the best option; a taxi or a private transfer will be much more comfortable and faster.

Useful Tips

You can purchase your ticket from the ticket office at the airport or on the bus using only cash; note that the driver can't provide change for notes higher than €20.
One carry-on and one standard checked luggage is included in the ticket price free of charge.
Most of the Sagalés and Moventis fleet is accessible to wheelchairs but it's best to contact customer support to confirm.
