Tourists come to Barcelona to admire the ancient port, the history of which dates back to the times of the Roman Empire, to stroll along the cozy streets, which, like rhinestones, are decorated with the unique architectural creations of the local geniuses. Having visited these parts once, you will forever keep in your heart memorable photo collages, the sound of the surf and the smiling faces of the local residents. Today we are going to talk about how to get to Barcelona.

To Barcelona by plane

Several flights depart daily from the capital's Sheremetyevo airport, with the help of which you can find yourself in the center of fabulous Catalonia. From the presented offers of air carriers, you can easily choose both the most affordable and the fastest ways of flight. At the moment, companies such as Pegasus, Brussels Airlines, Iberia, Belavia, Aeroflot and many others are ready to offer their services to numerous tourists who have decided to visit one of the most interesting corners of Spain.

The cost of tickets does not differ much, although it depends on the number of transfers, the chosen route and travel time. The level of comfort with which the tourist prefers to travel also affects the cost of the flight. Consider the most interesting proposals in this area. The cheapest ticket will be a Pegasus plane ticket, which will cost a little more than 10.5 thousand rubles. The journey will take approximately 22.5 hours, of which 15 hours and 20 minutes are waiting for departure in the lounges of Istanbul. Since the departure time falls at 4:20 pm, and you will be at the Turkish airport in 3 hours, you will have to take care of hotel reservations. And this is an additional cost.

Therefore, it is worth considering alternative offers from other airlines, among which there is a direct flight, which will significantly save time for crossing a rather large distance and will not greatly affect costs. The best offers will be flights of Vueling and domestic Aeroflot, the cost of services of which will be 11,700 and 12,300 rubles, respectively. You can buy tickets for both morning flights and choose one of the planes that leave Sheremetyevo airspace during the day and even in the evening. As you can see, by overpaying only 1200-1800 rubles, you can fly to Barcelona 5-6 times faster without making transfers at associated airports and without spending money on accommodation in local hotels.

You can try to find lucrative offers from low-cost airlines, whose planes make regular landings at the Reus and Girona airports located not far from the center of Catalonia. And upon arrival, it will not be difficult for you to cover a short distance by buses, taxis or by ordering a transfer at one of the Barcelona hotels. But those tourists who leave from St. Petersburg should pay attention to the offers of airlines that fly from Tallinn airport.

A train

If you prefer to travel by train, be prepared for some bad news at once. First of all, the journey will take you at least two days. In addition, there are no direct trains from Russia to the capital of Catalonia today, so you have to be patient and make several transfers at once in European cities. The easiest way to get there is via France or Germany (there are direct trains from Moscow). Accordingly, the cost of such a trip also increases significantly. For one-way tickets, you have to pay from 500 to 800 euros per person. In addition, be prepared to pay for your meals and additional costs.

Bus

The situation is similar with bus routes. If until recently it was possible to find an advantageous offer of a trip from the Russian capital to Barcelona on a regular bus, today such offers are very rare. Carriers simply cannot compete with airlines whose services are both more efficient and cheaper. The only exceptions are tourist buses, which provide tourists with the opportunity to visit several European cities at once.

In addition, not so long ago, a direct bus departed from the capital's airport terminal, which could take you to the center of Catalonia in just 71 hours. The cost of a one-way trip was 290 euros for an adult passenger and 155 for children under 12 years old.

Car

If you decide to travel by car, it will be interesting to know that the length of the route is more than 3 thousand kilometers. The most optimal routes run through Belarus, Poland, Germany and France. And with the most modest gasoline costs, the trip will cost at least 650 euros.

Now you know how to get to Barcelona and can plan the best route for such a trip.
