Girona Airport Transfers
Girona Airport lies 12 kilometres from the city of Girona and and is well
linked by taxi services. There is also an airport bus that connects with
Girona's central bus and train station.
If you're using Girona airport as a gateway to Barcelona then do bear in mind
that it's a 100km journey and the cheap fares involved in getting to Girona may
be offset by the costs of transfers from Girona airport to Barcelona. And that's
not taking into account the time spent transferring between cities.
Do try to get flights directly to Barcelona's El Prat airport if possible as
it is located just 12km from the city centre. You can check out our
flights to
Barcelona section in case there's a comparable deal direct to Barcelona.
Girona Barcelona Transfer Options
By Bus to Barcelona
From Girona airport there is a Barcelona Bus running to the centre of
Barcelona (70 minutes) which operates immediately after flight arrivals. This
service is run by a local bus company called Sagalés whose timetable is
determined by the expected arrival time of Ryanair flights. It is NOT
provided by Ryanair themselves so don't assume that a Ryanair flight will
wait for you if you are on this bus heading back for Girona, it wont! The cost
of the service is €21 return. Their
timetable (in Catalan) appears online. Once you arrive in the
Barcelona's main bus terminal,
Estació del Nord (Carrer d'Ali Bei 80) you can walk about 10 minutes to the
Arc De Triomf metro station from where you can travel anywhere in the city.
 By Train to Barcelona
An alternative is to head into Girona by bus or taxi then take one of the
frequent trains that run to Barcelona Sants station. You can find train
timetables for the Girona to Barcelona train route in English on the
RENFE Website. A taxi into Girona takes about 30 minutes and will cost about
€20.

If you've chosen to fly to Girona rather than directly to Barcelona you were
probably looking for a cheap deal so maybe a private transfer isn't what you're
looking for as it may well cost more than you paid for your flight. However, for
a stress free way of getting from Girona airport to Barcelona city, it's the
best alternative. You can
pre-book
Girona airport transfers and have a driver waiting for you on arrival.
