PUBLIC TRANSPORT
in Barcelona

LET’S START
WITH THE BASICS...

  • You can take your pick from three types of public transport in Barcelona – the metro, the bus and the tram.
  • The Bicing bike sharing system is only available to locals – sorry!
  • Metro services start at 5.00 a.m. and run until midnight (weekends longer). You can hop on a bus between about 6.00 a.m. and 11.00 p.m. – you’ll have to use the night bus after that.
  • Barcelona is divided up into zones, but you don’t really need to worry about that because you’ll probably just be sticking to Zone 1.
  • Watch out for pickpockets! We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again! Lots of thieves operate on the metro and buses in Barcelona. Just make sure all of your belongings are tucked away safely and keep your bag close to you at all times.
