The bus in Barcelona is a very good option<\/strong> because that's how you can visit the city. Buses are very punctual!<\/p>\n

Another thing is that they never stop: night buses will take over any journeys you have to make during the day. night<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Arrival by bus: if you're looking to travel to Barcelona by bus from France, you can go to here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A well-thought-out organization of buses in Barcelona: the letters H, V, D and N.<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The city's buses have letters<\/strong> and numbers<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

Knowing that the first letter is either a V (vertical), an H (horizontal) or a D (diagonal) makes it easier to find your way around. Buses cross the city in all directions. Also, a bus beginning with the letter N is a night bus (Nitbus).<\/p>\n

In general, buses run in both directions, but in neighborhoods such as L'Eixample or Gr\u00e0cia, buses only run in one direction.<\/p>\n

With a simple smartphone<\/strong>Google Map will show you the route you can take, very easily.
\nDuring the day, it's rare to have to wait more than a few minutes for a bus, and connections are very well organized.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A well thought-out bus system in Barcelona, except when it's raining!<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Barcelona is a Mediterranean city.
\nA city that's generally hot and unfortunately unsuitable<\/strong> when it rains heavily. <\/p>\n

Even if this improves over time, be sure to increase your travel time according to the weather. If it's raining, bus routes can be heavily congested. disturbed<\/strong>.
\nAnd in some cases, this will be exacerbated if the metro<\/a> are flooded. The population will have no choice but to use the overcrowded buses. <\/p>\n

In short, if you notice heavy rain, increase your travel time quite considerably<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Where can I find the Barcelona bus map?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Barcelona's TMB (Tram-Metro-Bus) website gives you all information<\/strong> on all bus routes: https:\/\/www.tmb.cat\/en\/barcelona-transport\/map\/bus<\/a><\/p>\n

How do I buy a bus ticket in Barcelona?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Don't hesitate to buy a ten-route card<\/strong> which will cost you 10.20 euros.
\nA single trip (Bitllet senzill) costs 2.20 euros. <\/p>\n

You are then entitled to all the connections you want for 1h15. Day tickets are also available for 8.60 euros.
\nIt's up to you to decide advantage<\/strong>…<\/p>\n

When you enter the metro station, there are machines at your disposal.
\nYou can pay with your bank card or in cash. You can choose between a single ticket or a ten-trip ticket (T-10).
\nYou can choose your language on the machines to have the instructions in French.<\/p>\n

How do I validate my bus ticket?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The buses are equipped with small machines to validate<\/strong> your ticket. These machines are usually located at the entrance, next to the driver. <\/p>\n

There's not necessarily a machine in the middle of the bus. Don't forget to return to thefront of bus<\/strong> otherwise you won't be able to validate your ticket.
\nYou can buy a ticket from the driver, but the single ticket will cost 2.20 euros.<\/p>\n

What if I don't pay?<\/strong> Fines are expensive in Barcelona and there are quite a few checks. 100 euros for a non-validated ticket.<\/p>\n

Aerobus: the bus that links the airport to Pla\u00e7a de Espanya and Pla\u00e7a Catalunya<\/strong><\/h2>\n

When you leave theairport<\/a> At El Prat, all you have to do is pass through the entrance gates and, as soon as you're outside, head left. You'll see sky-blue buses marked A1 and A2.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

If you arrive in Barcelona, both buses are available. <\/p>\n

In one twenty minutes<\/strong> and for 5.90 euros (10.90 for a round trip), you'll arrive at Pla\u00e7a de Espanya, with its recognizable bullring and view of Montjuic. <\/p>\n

From here, you can join the green and red metro lines. A few minutes later, the aerobus will take you to Pla\u00e7a Catalunya, the city's nerve center, where the subways, organized in a star formation from Pla\u00e7a Catalunya, will take you wherever you want to go. Pla\u00e7a Catalunya is the tourist hub, the departure point for the Ramblas<\/a> and the old town with its different districts: Gothic, Born and Raval.<\/p>\n

The aerobus operates every day of the year, but stops between 1 and 5 am.<\/p>\n

Night buses in Barcelona: Nitbus<\/strong><\/h2>\n

When the metro is not running, i.e. every night from midnight to 5 a.m. (Monday to Thursday, Sundays and public holidays) or from 2 a.m. to 5 a.m. (Fridays), night buses are available. a good option<\/strong>.
\nIn general, they pass by every 10-20 minutes.<\/p>\n

The fare is the same as for the daytime bus, and you can pay with your card, which you have to validate in a small machine near the driver.<\/p>\n

Are night buses safe?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

I take the night bus home almost every week and I'm always impressed by how well the system works. well-organized<\/strong>. It's almost door-to-door!
\nExcept in the old town districts, which are too cramped for a bus to get through...<\/p>\n

Buses are always crowded and people are very respectful. Sometimes, in the middle of the night, near discos and trendy bars, the buses are full. The party goes on even on the buses, where you can meet new people.<\/p>\n

But be careful!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
