Located close to the city centre, this Barcelona suburb is well-linked to the the Barcelona metropolitan transportation network through rail, road, and other forms of transport.
Metro
A new way of getting around town is the Metro (subway). With trains coming in two minute intervals, there is nod doubt regarding this means’ high efficiency. On holidays and weekends, students might find trains crowded and only arriving once every 6-8 minutes. All announcements are made in Catalan, however, ticketing machines and signs usually include English and Spanish as well.
Buses
With an extensive network of buses running through the city, buses are probably the best option for planning routes. Students can obtain a non-integrated ticket for any singular mode of transport for €2.40. If trying to save money, they can also purchase a travel card, which provides excellent value-for-money compared to a single ticket.
Bicycle
Barcelona also has its own shared bike system, called BiCiNg. However, this appears to be only accessible for locals. Students can rent bicycles from Donkey Republic, Barceloneta Bikes, Biking in Barcelona, and Budget Bikes.
Scooter
Electric scooters are permitted in bicycle lanes, and may share the road with automobiles. Students can rent scooters from Mattia46, GoCar, Colltra Motos and BookYourMoto.
Walking
Barcelona is a very walkable city. There are opportunities all around to sit down and enjoy a drink or a meal everywhere. If you are fit, you can pretty much explore the city by foot alone, unless the heat beats you in the warmer months (and then you can always resort to the air-conditioned metro).
