Getting to know the city of Barcelona on your own

What is the best way to get to Barcelona from the campsite?
There are several ways to visit Barcelona in just one day:

• First of all, the easiest way to get there is by train. The train station is only 10 minutes away from Camping Caballo, so it is easy to get there. If you decide to take the train, you will arrive at Sants station in Barcelona and once there you can take a bus or the metro to the center of Barcelona. Then you will be in the perfect place to get to know one of the most wonderful cities in the world.
• On the other hand, you can also go with your own vehicle. This option is more comfortable because you have more freedom. In addition, the campsite reception will be able to inform you of the best parking lots where you can leave your vehicle at the best price.
• Lastly, another option is to go by bus. Possibly, unless you have hired an excursion, the buses usually take longer and are more uncomfortable, although it is true that it is also an option.

In any of these options you will be in Barcelona in just 50 minutes.

Book an excursion to Barcelona

During high season, you can book a bus trip to Barcelona at the reception desk of the campsite. In addition, these trips usually include guided tours of the main areas of interest in the city. It is perfect if you are visiting this wonderful city for the first time.
