Chauffeur Service in La Clota

La Clota sits in a hollow between el Carmel and the Passeig de la Vall d'Hebron, southwest of Horta, in the Horta-Guinardó district. Carrer de Lisboa, Avinguda del Cardenal Vidal i Barraquer and Avinguda de l'Estatut de Catalunya frame it, and the whole barri covers 0.18 km², home to 698 people in 2021.

Its story begins at Can Tarrida, a 13th-century farmhouse that has since disappeared, and spreads across the flat ground once called the pla dels Ametllers. The rieres d'Horta and d'en Marcel·lí and the torrents of Sant Genís and la Clota all met here, and their water fed wells, irrigation ditches and a laundry trade that made the bugaderes of la Clota known throughout Barcelona. For years it was a rural spot of small houses and orchards where Barcelona aristocrats spent their summers. Some streets went without paving, sewers or street lighting until well into the democratic period, and low houses, farmhouses with gardens and small workshops still share the same lanes. On the Camí de Sant Genís a Horta, the neoclassical Torre Jussana now serves local associations.

With lanes like these, a precise pickup helps the driver. Name the street and number, or a corner such as Carrer de Lisboa if your door is down a lane, and say where you are going: Barcelona Airport, Barcelona Sants, the cruise terminals, Girona or the Costa Brava. The quote is worked out for that trip.
