Bordeaux - Girona

Hello, on the 31st of July I’m planning to travel from Bordeaux St Jean to Girona (Viajeros). I already made seat reservations, but when looking at dates in May, I see we (2 persons) could travel for cheaper by not taking the TGV from Narbonne to Girona. (The tickets that I already bought indicate that I can cancel without a fee.) We would then travel via Port-Bou. But unfortunately there is no train planning yet for July… Does anyone know a good app to see which trains there are on this day (when the planning is available)? And has anyone experience with the schedules in Spain and if they change often? We would like to save some money, but for us it wouldn’t be worth a 3 hour transfer in Narbonne for example.

I know there are quite some questions, but if you can help me (a little bit), I would be greatful :)

Check for the same day next week. It should be the same in July

There is usually a 30-min or 1h wait in Portbou at the border but that's fine

Use bahn.de for planning, it is the most reliable tool imho

The most reliable place for the Spanish regional trains in that route is their own website as they have a nasty habit of not supplying their timetables to outside services.

This is the current timetable for Cerbere-Port Bou - Girona - Barcelona
