In the widget you can start from the airport, the city centre, Sants Station or the cruise port.

Train or private transfer
When the train makes sense, and when it does not
Let us be honest: if you are one or two people with light bags, staying near a station, the high-speed train from Sants to Figueres is fast. But the high-speed station is outside the town, and from the airport you first need to get to Sants.
A private transfer makes sense when you land at El Prat with luggage, travel as a family or a group, are staying outside Figueres (in Peralada, in a country hotel or in a village of the Empordà), or want to see the museum and continue to the coast on the same day. One vehicle, no changes, and the price is shared by everyone on board.
Where we drop you off
The town and the Empordà around it
Figueres centre
Hotels near the Rambla and the Dalí Theatre-Museum. Some streets in the centre are pedestrian; we stop at the nearest allowed point.
Castle of Sant Ferran
The huge 18th-century fortress on the hill above the town, one of the largest of its kind in Europe.
Peralada
The village of the castle, the wine cellars and the summer music festival, a few minutes north.
Country hotels
Farmhouse hotels and villas in the villages of the Alt Empordà. Give us the exact address when you book.
While you are there
Dalí, a fortress and the wine country
The Dalí Theatre-Museum, which Dalí designed himself and where he is buried, is one of the most visited museums in Spain; tickets with a time slot are usually booked in advance. Figueres also has a toy museum and a large weekly market.
Around the town, the Empordà is wine country, with cellars that open for visits and tastings. A transfer means nobody in your group has to drive back after a tasting.
Going back
From Figueres to Barcelona
We collect you at your hotel in Figueres or anywhere in the Alt Empordà and drive you to the airport, the city centre, Sants Station or the cruise port. Free waiting at hotels and private addresses is 15 minutes; at Sants or the cruise port, if we collect you there, 30 minutes.
