The station is located close to the L1 metro and Arc de Triomf. This is the station for domestic travel. Over 30 platforms and somewhat busy on a Friday morning around 8:30. The information booth/waiting area with bus arrival/departure times information as well as small cafe are located close to Platform 17. Helpful people at the information booth as we had some questions about our tour meeting point which ended up changing to a different platform. Looks solid for travel by bus options.

There are also separate tickets available to go to the airport. The kiosk is fairly easily to use although we wanted to speak with an agent to make certain we understood. An agent is available and we spoke to her. She only spoke Spanish and I was able to decipher what she was telling us. We ended up purchasing one of the unlimited tickets. Tickets become validated the moment you use them to enter the station. Outside of the station are Metro maps. Be sure to grab one so that you know which route to use. It is an easy system provided you're on the correct platform going in the direction desired. The locals will help you as some speak English. Luckily I knew the Spanish terminology. Clean and safe although the trains tend to be very crowded. Trains run fairly often. Just be aware of your important items.

Purchasing tickets are easy through the ticket machines. I purchased a T-Casual as that was more than enough for me. That amounted to about 12 EUR. Note that because I arrived in Barcelona via the Renfe, I didn't need to worry about purchasing a separate airport ticket, which would've coughed up an extra 5 EUR. Google Maps and the Citymapper app helped me plot my journey across my time in Barcelona, but the stations clearly point out the stops as needed. They do go a bit deeper underground, but the stations itself are more accessible friendly due to the 92 Olympics. When inside the train, most of the announcements are indeed in Spanish, but you can figure out where you need to go. Just like most cities in Europe, remember to open the latch or press the button to exit the train. Overall, an easy and pleasant way to get around Barcelona.

There are a few points along the ride that the cable car will LURCH & your stomach will drop & someone might scream & you might think you're going to die, but it all just adds to the excitement, right?

At 12.50 EUR, it isn't cheap, but it's definitely a faster alternative. To get here, you basically have to walk east from the Montjuic station. The road forks, so stay on Miramar Ave (Avinguda). The tram station is located behind the Hotel Miramar. Because there's only one cable car going back and forth most of the time (I think?), expect a slight wait between turns. The cable car itself fits about 20 or so people, but you'll get views of the city and beach from any angle honestly. The best part is that the cable car gets you right in the heart of Barceloneta so you can hop right across to the beach.

I think it might be one of the oldest trams still in commission and you definitely feel it's age. It is perhaps the slowest means of transportation especially considering it runs on one track and has to make its way up the mountain. The other thing that detracts from this experience is the ticket price of roughly 5 euros. I've read the bus is another option but if you're big on history or really love trams then you can try it once. We boarded from near the avenida Tibidabo metro station.
