Taxi Dinan → Rennes

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.
