MOVING AROUND IN BARCELONA

This document is intended to help you to go back and forth between the airport, the hotels, the conference site and the restaurant of the conference dinner. More information can be found in the web of the city and in the route searching page of TMB (Barcelona's public transports company).

Although it is easier to find one's way through underground lines and stations, and its schedules are generally speaking more reliable, some bus routes are more convenient in order to reach the conference site; don't hesitate to ask the driver or other passengers about your stop (which always has to be requested in advance). All underground stations and most bus stops have maps showing the itineraries of the corresponding lines.

We apologize for any incorrect information.
