Taxi Versailles → Chartres
Versailles → Chartres transfer at €155–€185. 80 km, 1 hour.
A taxi between Versailles and Chartres 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 A12 / N10, with ~€4 in tolls. 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.

The Versailles-Chartres route links two UNESCO World Heritage sites: the Palace of Versailles and the Cathedral of Notre-Dame de Chartres, a masterpiece of Gothic architecture housing the world's largest collection of medieval stained-glass windows — over 2,600 square metres including the legendary 'Chartres blue'. The route passes through the vast Rambouillet forest, a former royal hunting ground, then the Beauce grain plain where the cathedral spires appear on the horizon from miles away. This taxi is ideal for tourists combining both UNESCO sites, pilgrims heading to Chartres, and travellers seeking a comfortable alternative to the indirect train connection via Paris.
