Taxi Rennes → Dinard
Your Rennes → Dinard transfer at €155–€185. 80 km via the N137.
A taxi between Rennes and Dinard costs between €155 and €185 when booked in advance at a fixed price, over a road distance of about 80 kilometres and a journey time of from 60 to 80 minutes depending on traffic. The usual route takes N137 then D168, with no tolls (Breton expressway). A van for up to seven passengers starts at €245. That price includes luggage, tolls and the driver's approach, and it does not move if traffic builds up: that is the difference with a metered ride, where every minute of waiting is charged and the applicable rate depends on the hour. On an unbooked ride, the amount follows the scale of the prefectoral order applying where the passenger is picked up, higher from seven in the evening to ten in the morning as well as on Sundays and public holidays. The driver tracks the flight or train number given at booking and shifts the pick-up at no extra cost if it is delayed, and cancelling remains free up to six hours before departure.

Dinard is Brittany's most elegant seaside resort, nicknamed the 'Nice of the North' for its mild microclimate, exotic gardens and sumptuous Belle Époque villas. From the late 19th century, British aristocracy and Parisian high society made it their summer retreat, building over 400 villas in eclectic styles — Neo-Gothic, Anglo-Norman, Art Nouveau — scattered across headlands and cliffs overlooking the sea. The Plage de l'Écluse, framed by two rocky points and its famous blue-and-white striped bathing tents, is Dinard's iconic image. The Clair de Lune promenade follows the coast for 2 km, offering spectacular views of Saint-Malo across the estuary, the Rance and offshore islands. Dinard hosts the annual British Film Festival (autumn), a legacy of the strong Anglo-Breton connection. Taxis from Rennes are popular with holidaymakers reaching their rentals, festival-goers, and passengers from Dinard-Pleurtuit airport (Ryanair flights to London Stansted).
Route
Route Rennes → Dinard
Your driver takes the N137 towards Saint-Malo for about 65 km, then branches onto the D168 which crosses the Rance tidal barrage — a remarkable 750 m structure housing the world's first tidal power station, commissioned in 1966. Crossing the barrage offers a striking panorama of the Rance estuary with its sea arms, islets and oyster farms. After the barrage, you follow the Rance on the Dinard side, reaching the town centre in 10 minutes. The entire journey is toll-free (Breton expressways). The drive takes about 1h normally and can reach 1h20 in summer when the Rance barrage creates a bottleneck (single lane each way). Your driver drops you at the Plage de l'Écluse, your hotel or Dinard-Pleurtuit airport as needed.

Tips & best practices
Specific tips for the Rennes → Dinard route
The Rance barrage deserves a stop: the free EDF discovery centre explains how the tidal power station works. The Clair de Lune promenade in Dinard (2 km, free) is ideal at sunset to admire illuminated Saint-Malo across the water. The Plage de l'Écluse is supervised in summer but can be packed in August — Saint-Enogat or Prieuré beaches are quieter alternatives. Belle Époque villas open during Heritage Days (September) — otherwise, the 'Villas de Dinard' walking circuit (tourist office, €2) lets you admire them from outside. For dining, Didier Méril (Michelin-starred) is Dinard's top gastronomic address. The Dinard market (Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday mornings, covered halls) offers seafood, cider and kouign-amann.
