The Barcelonaer Verkehrsbetriebe (TMB) provides public transport services throughout the city of Barcelona. The public transportation TMB keeps the city running 365 days a year.

The Transports Metropolitans de Barcelona operates a very dense network of subways (Metro) and buses, as well as six tram lines, which are also called Trambaix and Trambesòs.

There are a total of 6 zones in the line network, most of the sights are in zone 1 and 2. Most of the sights are all within walking distance. In the vicinity of Placa Catalunya there are many bike rental stations, so that as an alternative to sightseeing you can switch to a bike.

METRO
The METRO route network is relatively well developed and practically every point in the city can be reached with the subway. Unfortunately, lines L6 and L7 are not operated by TMB. At the underground stations Catalunya and Diagonal you have to accept longer distances when changing trains.

FUNCTIONAL RAILWAY
Funiculars lead to Tibidabo, Montjuïc and Vallvidrera, the journeys have to be paid extra here as they are not included in the tariff system.

TRAM
There are now six tram lines in Barcelona, ​​which complement the dense METRO network in their timetables.

City buses
The bus network is also very dense and leads to all parts of the city. They also harmonize with the METRO timetables.
