Taxi Rennes → Saint-Brieuc
Your Rennes → Saint-Brieuc transfer at €195–€235. 100 km via the N12.
A taxi between Rennes and Saint-Brieuc costs between €195 and €235 when booked in advance at a fixed price, over a road distance of about 100 kilometres and a journey time of from 65 to 85 minutes depending on traffic. The usual route takes N12, with no tolls (Breton expressway). A van for up to seven passengers starts at €305. 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.

Saint-Brieuc is the prefecture of the Côtes-d'Armor, perched on a plateau overlooking an immense bay — the Bay of Saint-Brieuc, France's third-largest bay after Mont-Saint-Michel and the Somme, classified as a nature reserve for its exceptional birdlife. The city, founded by a Welsh monk in the 5th century (Brieuc), retains a pleasant historic centre with its fortress-cathedral Saint-Étienne (13th-14th century, unique in Brittany for its defensive towers), half-timbered houses and picturesque lanes. The port of Légué, at the bottom of a steep valley, is a former trading port turned lively marina. Saint-Brieuc is also a major economic centre (agri-food, digital) and the gateway to the Pink Granite Coast (Perros-Guirec, Ploumanac'h) and the Goëlo (Paimpol, Île de Bréhat). Taxis from Rennes serve civil servants, professionals, tourists in transit to the north coast and locals connecting with TGV trains.
Route
Route Rennes → Saint-Brieuc
Your driver takes the N12 towards Brest from Rennes. The expressway first crosses the Rennes countryside (hedgerows, crops), then enters the Côtes-d'Armor near Lamballe — former capital of the Penthièvre, renowned for its national stud farm and Notre-Dame collegiate church. After Lamballe, the N12 climbs onto the Briochin plateau and you can glimpse the Bay of Saint-Brieuc in the distance on clear days. The Saint-Brieuc Centre exit leads directly to the city centre in 5 minutes. The journey takes 1h05 normally and can reach 1h25 during rush hours or on market days. The entire route is toll-free.

Tips & best practices
Specific tips for the Rennes → Saint-Brieuc route
The Bay of Saint-Brieuc is spectacular at low tide: the mudflats stretch for kilometres, revealing a world of worms, cockles and migratory birds. The Maison de la Baie (Hillion, 10 km, free) is an excellent observation point. The port of Légué deserves a stroll: seafood restaurants, pleasure boats and the towpath along the Gouët. The fortified Saint-Étienne cathedral is atypical and impressive. Saint-Brieuc market (Saturday mornings, Place du Chai) is lively: scallops (local speciality from the bay), andouilles, cider. Art Rock, a music and contemporary arts festival (May-June), is Saint-Brieuc's major cultural event. From Saint-Brieuc, Paimpol (50 km) and the Pink Granite Coast (80 km) are easily accessible by taxi.
