Getting around Barcelona:
Most sights are within walking distance from our hostel, however, the cheapest option to get around Barcelona and from/to the Airport is the T-10 pass (10 journeys for about 10€)
Single ride: About 4€
This pass is valid on the trains from the airport, metros & local buses and can be shared by a group of people as long as it’s validated for all passengers travelling with it. It also allows a free transfer within 1 ¼ hrs of validation. You can buy it just before getting on the airport train or once you arrive in Barcelona (at metro stations, some news stands. etc.).
If you arrive at the airport or train station you can buy it there, as it is much cheaper than buying a single ticket.
