Taxi Poitiers → Angoulême
Your Poitiers → Angoulême transfer at €220–€270. 115 km via the toll-free N10, world capital of comic strips.
A taxi between Poitiers and Angoulême costs between €220 and €270 when booked in advance at a fixed price, over a road distance of about 115 kilometres and a journey time of from 75 to 95 minutes depending on traffic. The usual route takes N10, with no tolls. A van for up to seven passengers starts at €350. 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 Poitiers to Angoulême route links the capital of Poitou to the capital of the Charente through bucolic west-central French countryside. Poitiers is renowned for its unique Romanesque heritage: Notre-Dame la Grande, the 4th-century Baptistère Saint-Jean and the UNESCO-listed Saint-Hilaire church. Angoulême is world-famous for its International Comic Strip Festival, the largest in the world, attracting 200,000 visitors each January. Perched on a rocky spur above the Charente river, the upper town offers a rampart walk with exceptional panoramic views. Giant painted murals of comic characters are scattered throughout the city, making Angoulême an open-air museum of the ninth art. The Cité Internationale de la BD houses one of the world's largest comic strip collections. Cognac, home to Hennessy, Martell and Rémy Martin, is just 45 km from Angoulême.
