Taxi from Barcelona Airport to Tossa de Mar
Your flight lands in the afternoon and the hotel is in Tossa de Mar, on the Costa Brava. A taxi from Barcelona Airport to Tossa de Mar is a door-to-door ride of 100.7 km, about 87 minutes without traffic.
The route leaves the Barcelona metropolitan area, so the AMB refers you to the Generalitat's intercity tariffs instead of its urban fare. That is why the price is a different kind of figure from a ride into the city.

How is the Tossa de Mar taxi fare calculated as a closed circuit?
The intercity meter counts the kilometres back to the starting point by the shortest route unless you agree otherwise. The STAC sets this out and adds that the service is contracted as a full-car hire.
So even a one-way transfer includes the driver's return. If you want a different arrangement, agree it before you leave.
Who pays the toll, and how long does it take?
The passenger pays any toll on the road used, including the driver's return, according to the same STAC page. The trip takes about 87 minutes without traffic.
We would ask at booking whether a quoted fixed price includes the toll, and which route the driver plans to take.
Where does the taxi pick you up at the airport?
Aena says T1 has taxi ranks on level 0 and that T2 has a rank in the arrivals area of each of T2A, T2B and T2C. If you booked a company in advance, tell it your terminal and flight number.

What should you ask before you book?
A transfer of this length has more moving parts than a city ride. Ask whether the price is the meter or a fixed amount, and if fixed, whether it includes tolls both ways, a wait of up to an hour if your flight is late, and the airport supplement.
Ask for the price in writing, and ask the driver which route they plan to take. Say how many bags you carry and how many people travel, since a standard car and a people carrier are not the same. If you travel with a child, ask about child seats when you book. If someone uses a wheelchair, ask for an adapted taxi in advance.
Say how you want to pay. Not every driver takes cards, and 8 of the 30 services mention card payment on their websites. If you need to be back at the airport for a departure, book the return at the same time and give the flight time.
