Barcelona to Tarragona by train
When making the journey by train from Barcelona to Tarragona there is a choice between travelling on:
- the IC services, faster express trains on which tickets can be booked in advance and all bookings have seat reservations included.
- slower R-Express services which can't be booked online and on which seat reservations aren't available, but will be cheaper when booking last minute tickets at the station.
The Euromed services now no longer call at the main city centre station in Tarragona.
As they now take a high speed route, they call instead at Camp De Tarragona station, which is located to the north of the city.
