Hi
I have booked for June to Catalonia & Barcelona but there is only one trip to Barcelona. Has anyone taken the train from Catalonia? I would love to see more of Barcelona but a bit worried as no sense of direction!!! Also is it safe on your own? Would welcome any help and feedback on the holiday.

Hello Di,
I stayed at the same hotel in Calella at christmas 2012 and can confirm you can get the train into Barcelona. The railway station is a 10 min walk from the hotel and there are lots of trains heading North & South, you can easily get to loads of places. We also got the train to Blanes one day and had a nice lunch.
Word of note think there are two railway stations in Barcelona so make sure you get the right one for coming back.
Best way of seeing Barcelona is the Hop on Hop off uses, there are two routes (Red & Blue), you should pick up a leaflet at the station or in your hotel.
I'm sure you'll find others wanting to do the same thing.
