akswartz85 Posted September 7, 2011 #1 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Can anyone recommend a car service from BCN to the Las Ramblas area? Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Hlitner Posted September 7, 2011 #2 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Unless you are a large group it is very easy to simply grab a taxi from the airport (about 30 Euros). There is a taxi queue right as you exit the airport and there is always an airport employee there to make sure everything flows well. Just make sure they run the meter.

akswartz85 Posted September 7, 2011 Author #3 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Thanks, we are looking for a car service. It's for my parents - they are coming in late at night, first time to Spain, and feel more comfortable with a car service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
windsor123456 Posted September 8, 2011 #4 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Barcelona Day Tours. But ask for an English speaking driver. We had transfer drivers who could not speak English but knew exactly where to take us so there was no problem. Our driver on our 4 hr tour was excellent and spoke English well.

2Canucks Posted July 17, 2012 #6 Share Posted July 17, 2012 We are arriving in Barcelona in the late afternoon during the Festival in Sept. We're looking for "car service" suggestions. We don't wish to be stuck in a taxi with the meter running in the crowded streets after a very long flight. :eek: Thank You in advance for any "recent info" you can share with us concerning a "good car service" in Barcelona with English speaking drivers.

English_in_Spain Posted July 18, 2012 #7 Share Posted July 18, 2012 We have used BCN travel for transfers. It is more expensive than a taxi but the driver is waiting for you at arrivals in the airport which for me, who cannot walk far or stand too long, is worth it. http://www.bcn.travel/transport/airport-transfers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4774Papa Posted July 18, 2012 #8 Share Posted July 18, 2012 We used Barcelona Day Tours for a party of six from the cruise terminal to airport. Cost 79E for all. For two persons, a taxi is recommended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wendy The Wanderer Posted July 18, 2012 #9 Share Posted July 18, 2012 How does the price of a car service compare to a cab? (For two people, not six.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4774Papa Posted July 18, 2012 #10 Share Posted July 18, 2012 How does the price of a car service compare to a cab? (For two people, not six.) A cab from the airport to Las Ramblas area will cost 30-35Euros. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wendy The Wanderer Posted July 18, 2012 #11 Share Posted July 18, 2012 A cab from the airport to Las Ramblas area will cost 30-35Euros. Yes I know. What would a pre-arranged driver cost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
English_in_Spain Posted July 18, 2012 #12 Share Posted July 18, 2012 We paid €59 from the airport to the port and the same for the return. This was for up to 4 people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4774Papa Posted July 18, 2012 #13 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Yes I know. What would a pre-arranged driver cost? Since we had six persons they had to use a van, I don't know what the price would have been for a smaller vehicle. You can ask. They have a website.

Instead of a professional car service we got a dirty taxicab and a rude driver who spent the entire ride on his cell phone using the speaker phone feature so we had to listen to both sides of his conversation with his girlfriend the entire ride! Such a waste of money, if I wanted a dirty taxicab I wouldn't have hired a car service! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slyster Posted October 15, 2012 #16 Share Posted October 15, 2012 would you recommend a car service for 4 people or would a taxi be more efficient to get near the las ramblas area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
