  • You can also get the train into Barcelona.

    We stayed in Pineda de Mar in September 2008 and October 2009. It was lovely, peaceful and quiet. Visit to Barcelona is a must.

    We went last october and at alot of bus stops there is a bus employee that has leaflets and will tell you where to buy the bono ticket, it can be bought and topped up at gift shops and tobac shops. the first time it cost more as you buy the ticket and you can put on 10/20/30 rides at a time and use it between all in a party, as you get on the bus you wave it near a pad and you do this for everbody in a party but only do one beep per person your tickets will tell you how many Journeys you have left.Each ticket is a single and when you are getting short take it in and top it up, saves alot of money and very easy to use.Tarragona is worth a visit if you like roman architecture, Reus is and interesting centre as well if you want a trip out. The cards are credit card size
