How to get Figueres:
From Barcelona:
The Dalí Museum of Figueres is located 140kms north from Barcelona.
By car it's about 1hour and 30 minutes drive plus find the Parking. In total the trip takes 2 hours.
I recommend to take the high speed train AVE called "Avant". From Barcelona to Figueres/Vilafant is only 55 minutes. The price is 37€ go and return.
From Girona:
Dalí's Museum is located 35kms north from Girona city.
By car it's about 40 minutes plus find the car Parking. In total the trip takes 1 hour.
Best option is the high speed train called "Avant" that only takes 15 minutes. The price is 12€ go and return.
.
If you take the train, I recomend the "Avant" train that arrives to Figueres/Vilafant at 9.10h or the train that arrives at 10.05h.
Once you are in Figueres/Vilafant train station, you have two options:
- take a taxi to Dalí's Museum
or walk 20 minutes
