Barcelona Airport Transfer And Transport Review

This page has details for Barcelona airport transfer to destinations outside of Barcelona City centre. Destinations covered include Sitges, Gerona, Reus and Blanes.

Unfortunately we cannot give transport advice on any other destinations other than those presented on this page. Please do not send any other enquiries -there are just too many destinations to keep track of.

Barcelona Airport Transfer to Sitges

There are two means of public transport to Sitges from Barcelona Airport. They are the MonBus and the RENFE train (includes a change of train at Barcelona Sants rail station)

Which one you take will depend on your flight details because the MonBus service only runs approximately every 2 hours

The MonBus service.

The MonBus service runs from Barcelona airport to the following stations and includes the popular destination of Sitges.

Barcelona City Centre > Bellvitge >Barcelona Airport > Ribes > Sitges > Rocamar > Roquetes > Villanova> Cubelles> Cunit > Segur > Calafell > El Vendrell

El Vendrell > Calafell > Segur > Cunit > Cubelles > VillaNova > Roquetes > Rocamar > Sitges > Ribes >Barcelona Airport >Bellvitge > Barcelona City Centre

The stops are in order of direction but remember that the MonBus runs in both directions from the airport so make sure you get the bus that is going in the direction you want!


Tip from Site visitor Tom Levitan, UK about the MonBus Service

A suggestion -- you might want to warn people that at least on Friday afternoon, the MonBus to Sitges from the airport can be standing room only. Two of us travelling at different times last Friday encountered this. It wasn't too bad, but it could surprise people.


Ticket Price from Barcelona Airport to Sitges

The ticket to Barcelona Airport to Sitges are purchased on the bus (cannot be purchased in advance) and cost 2.85 euros for adults and children. Children below the age of 4 years travel free of charge.
