Getting from Moll Adossat to Barcelona centre 
On foot. From the Moll Adossat cruise ship terminals (A, B, C & D) in Barcelona port, it is about a 30 minutes walk to the edge of the Cuitat Vella (Barcelona’s old city) and a 45-60 minute walk to the center of modern Barcelona at Plaza Catalunyal so this is not really an option if you have luggage.
By taxi. Most cruise ship passengers choose to take a taxi from Moll Adossat terminals to the Barcelona city centre. Taxis in Barcelona are reliable and taxi fares are charged using taxi-meters, so you will not be cheated.
T3 Portbús. Take the T3 Portbus Barcelona. This is a shuttle bus service from the cruise ship terminals on Moll Adossat (A, B, C & D) to the Portal de la Pau plaza, which is at the harbour end of the walking street "La Rambla". Expect some queues and delays both for taxis and the port bus in peak periods.
