The lines you'll use
The green L3 crosses the old town and Montjuïc; the yellow L4 runs down to the beaches; L2 and L5 stitch the Eixample. With those four you cover ninety percent of any trip.
The hours that matter
The metro runs dawn to midnight, until two in the morning on Fridays and all night on Saturdays before holidays. Sundays start late: don't plan early Sunday transfers.
Access and strollers
The big stations have lifts and the transfers are color-signed impossible to miss. One ticket covers metro and bus: transfers count as a single journey within the established window.
