Taxi Dinan → Rennes
Your Dinan → Rennes transfer at €105–€130. 55 km via the D766.
A taxi between Dinan and Rennes costs between €105 and €130 when booked in advance at a fixed price, over a road distance of about 55 kilometres and a journey time of from 40 to 55 minutes depending on traffic. The usual route takes D766, with no tolls. A van for up to seven passengers starts at €170. 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.

The Dinan to Rennes journey links one of Brittany's finest medieval walled cities to the regional capital, a 55 km drive through the heart of the Breton countryside. Dinan is a unique heritage jewel, a fortified city perched on a rocky promontory overlooking the Rance valley from three kilometres of granite ramparts — the best preserved in all of Brittany. The old town is a delight for medieval architecture enthusiasts: cobbled lanes wind between 14th and 15th-century half-timbered houses with carved and colourful facades, Renaissance stone mansions, chapels and convents testifying to the past prosperity of this merchant city. The Rue du Jerzual, the iconic street that plunges steeply from the ramparts to the Rance port, is one of Brittany's most photographed streets with its overhanging houses and artisan workshops — glass blowers, weavers and wood carvers. Dinan Castle, a 14th-century keep built by Duke Jean IV of Brittany, now houses a local history museum and offers panoramic views from its ramparts. The taxi is used by travellers connecting to the TGV at Rennes, professionals working in the Rennes metropolis, university students, and tourists wishing to combine a visit to Dinan with exploring the Breton capital.
Route
Route Dinan → Rennes
From Dinan, your driver takes the D766 towards Rennes, a well-maintained departmental road crossing the inland Breton countryside. You leave Dinan southward, first passing the ramparts and station quarter, then the road enters the Cotes-d'Armor bocage — a landscape of hedgerows, green meadows with dairy cattle, and typical granite-and-slate Breton farmhouses. You pass through Caulnes, a small rural commune in the heart of Dinan country, then approach Becherel, the 'book town', a charming hilltop village known for its second-hand bookshops set in granite houses — on the first Sunday of each month, a book market draws bibliophiles from across Brittany. After Becherel, the road descends gradually into the Rennes basin via Romille and Pace. Arrival in Rennes is from the north-west, providing quick access to the TGV station, historic centre and business districts. The journey takes 40 minutes normally and can reach 55 minutes during Rennes rush hours.

Specific tips for the Dinan → Rennes route
If catching a TGV at Rennes, share your train time when booking — your driver will adjust departure from Dinan with a 20-minute safety margin.

The Rue du Jerzual, descending from the ramparts to the port, is lined with artisan workshops: glass blowers, weavers, painters and potters. If time allows, a detour to Becherel, the 'book town' (10 minutes from the D766), is a unique experience for literature lovers — over 15 bookshops in a village of 700 inhabitants.
