Barcelona Taxi & Transfers is a licensed private transfer service working from Barcelona El Prat, Girona and Reus airports and the cruise port. We drive passengers across Catalonia and, when asked, a good deal further.

A price before a journey

Every transfer is quoted as a fixed total for the whole vehicle, agreed in writing before you travel and including tolls and luggage. No meter runs on the motorway and nothing is added at the end.

Flights, not timetables

Give us a flight number and we track it. Land ninety minutes late and your driver is there ninety minutes later at the same price. Meeting you inside arrivals with a name sign is standard, not an extra.

The places without addresses

Much of our work is the awkward half of the map: coves at the end of one narrow road, masias with a name instead of a street number, wedding venues in the Empordà. Share a location pin and we will find it.

Get a quote

Send five things and we can price it immediately: pickup, destination, date and time, passengers, and how many suitcases. Add the flight number if you are arriving, and a location pin if the address is rural.

We reply with a fixed total for the whole vehicle. Your booking is confirmed once we answer.

If your flight has changed or you cannot find your driver, message the same number. Someone is awake.

The Costa Brava is where a private transfer stops being a luxury. Lloret and Blanes are served reasonably well by transfer buses, but everything north of them is not: Calella de Palafrugell, Llafranc, Tamariu, Begur and the coves below it each sit at the end of their own narrow road, and the bus route involves a change at Girona or Palafrugell with a long wait in between.

We drive the whole coast, from Blanes in the south to Cadaqués over the Pení pass in the north. The journey runs an hour and a quarter to Lloret, about an hour and three quarters to the Palafrugell villages, and two and a quarter hours to Cadaqués.

A great many houses rented along this coast have no usable street address — a name, a road number and a set of pine trees. Send the Google Maps pin from your booking confirmation and the driver will arrive at the gate rather than circling the village.

Questions

Barcelona's cruise berths sit a long way apart. Moll Adossat holds terminals A to E at the end of a working breakwater with no pedestrian access whatsoever; the World Trade Center terminals sit close to Colom and the bottom of La Rambla. Being dropped at the wrong one costs twenty minutes and a great deal of walking with luggage.

Send the ship name and the sailing date when you book. We check the berth for that date and take you to the right building. On the return leg we time the pickup against your disembarkation slot rather than the ship's arrival, because those are usually an hour or more apart.

Turnaround days are busy at Moll Adossat with several ships loading at once, and we build that into the timing. If a post-cruise flight looks tight, we will tell you before you book rather than let you find out on the day.

Questions

Girona is two destinations sharing a name. Girona Airport sits at Vilobí d'Onyar, about 12 km south of the city, and handles much of the region's low-cost traffic. Girona city is the medieval one: the Jewish quarter, the cathedral staircase, and the painted houses along the Onyar. Tell us which you mean, because the drop-off differs completely.

For the city, the drive is about an hour and twenty minutes up the AP-7. The old town is largely pedestrian and partly stepped, so we drop at the closest vehicle access — usually Carrer de Santa Clara or near Plaça Catalunya — which leaves a short walk to most hotels inside the Call.

Airport-to-airport transfers between El Prat and Girona are a steady part of our work, most often when a flight is cancelled and the replacement leaves from the other airport the same night. We quote those as a fixed total whatever the hour.

Questions

Moving a group is a logistics problem rather than a taxi booking. Fifteen guests arriving on four different flights, a wedding party that needs cars held between ceremony and reception, or a company team that must be at a venue together rather than trickling in — all of these need one person planning the whole movement.

Send us the numbers and the timings and we will come back with a plan and a total: how many vehicles, what time each one collects, and what the whole thing costs. Late returns after a reception are normal work for us; so are 5 a.m. departures when the group flies home.

For rural wedding venues and masias, the location pin matters more than the address. Share it once and every driver in the movement has it.

Questions

A four-hour journey with a meter running is nobody's idea of relaxing. Long-distance transfers are quoted as a single figure before departure, tolls included, and that figure holds whatever the traffic does. Nothing is added at the end.

For two or more travellers the arithmetic is often better than it looks. Against two rail tickets plus a taxi at each end, a private car door to door frequently costs about the same — and it leaves when you want, stops when you want, and takes as much luggage as the boot will hold.

Andorra during the ski season is our most requested long run, followed by Valencia, Zaragoza and Madrid. In winter the final stretch into Andorra depends on conditions at the pass; if a departure should move, we will say so rather than set off and hope.

Questions

Tarragona was the capital of Roman Hispania and still shows it: an amphitheatre cut into the slope above the beach, a circus running beneath the modern streets, and city walls you can walk. It is about an hour and a quarter from Barcelona Airport down the AP-7, and considerably less visited than it deserves.

Twenty minutes further sit Salou and Cambrils. Almost everyone on this route is a family or a group with a lot of luggage, which is why the van is the vehicle we send most often here — eight seats and a full-height boot handle four sets of cases plus a pushchair without anyone holding a bag on their knees.

For PortAventura the detail that matters is the drop-off. The resort hotels each have their own entrance inside the complex, and being left at the main park gate with tired children and four suitcases is a long walk. Give us the hotel name and we take you to its door.

Questions

The airport transfer is the journey where everything can go wrong: a delayed flight, a missing driver, a meter that climbs while you sit in traffic on the Gran Via. We remove all three. Send us the flight number and we watch it ourselves — if you land ninety minutes late, your driver is there ninety minutes later at the same price.

Your driver waits inside the terminal at arrivals, holding a sign with your name, after you have cleared baggage. If you would rather be collected at the kerb because you are travelling light, say so and we will arrange it. Either way there is no rank to queue at.

We serve all three airports in the region: Barcelona El Prat T1 and T2, Girona, and Reus. Airport-to-airport transfers are a common booking too — usually when a Girona flight is cancelled and the replacement leaves from El Prat the same night.
