Mrs applehead Posted May 28 #1 Share Posted May 28 Has anyone got a rough idea of the time we could leave the ship in Barcelona? I want to book tickets to Parc Guell and need to choose an entrance time. Also has anyone done this independently and can recommend the best way of getting there from the ship. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david63 Posted May 28 #2 Share Posted May 28 From experience ships normally dock in Barcelona around 08:00 - perhaps a bit earlier depending on how many other ships are in that day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you It is not easy to get to Parc Geull by public transport and I believe they have recently moved the bus stops. I would look at how you’re going to get there before booking a time slot. We waited until we went on a cruise that had an excursion there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you the excursion has been sold out for many months, I've checked lots of times for any cancellations but not had any luck. I asked on board on a previous cruise if they had a wait list and they said no as the entrance tickets sell out way in advance.

Thejuggler Posted May 28 #5 Share Posted May 28 If you are happy to walk its about 15 minutes from Vallcarca Metro station and I do remember a number of escalators which ease the uphill sections. This takes you to a side entrance and you can then walk through the park to the main entrance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Windsurfboy Posted May 28 #6 Share Posted May 28 (edited) From being docked at the far end of the pier a taxi to familia sagrada was 25 euro and 20 minutes , so expect park greuli would be about 35 euro and 30 minutes Edited May 28 by Windsurfboy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happy v Posted May 28 #7 Share Posted May 28 I would get a taxi. If you book a 9.30am slot you should be there in plenty time. They don't mind if you are late. Ask to be dropped off at the top gate. You are then walking down hill rather than up as it is quite steep. There are loads of taxis available on the dock 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
