Paris–Nice toll: pay €4.10 less
Between Paris and Nice (933 km), the motorway toll comes to €84.20 for a car paid in one go. By legally splitting your trip on the A6, the A7 then the A8 — with short exits, along the same route — you pay only €80.10. Here is exactly where to leave the motorway and rejoin it.
How to pay €80.10 instead of €84.20
On this route, all it takes is to exit and immediately rejoin the motorway at 2 toll gates. You drive the same itinerary; you simply pay your toll in several legs, which added up cost less than a single Paris → Nice payment.
| Leg (exit, then rejoin) | You pay |
|---|---|
| APRR · A6 | |
| Fleury-en-Bière → Joigny | €8.10 |
| Joigny → Mâcon-Nord | €22.20 |
| Mâcon-Nord → Villefranche-Limas | €6.90 |
| Villefranche-Limas → Vienne (57 km with no toll) | free |
| ASF · A7 | |
| Vienne → Lançon-Provence | €28.10 |
| Lançon-Provence → Pourrières (53 km, toll at Canet de Meyreuil, La Barque) | not priced |
| Escota · A8 | |
| Pourrières → Antibes | €14.80 |
| Total when split | €80.10 |
The 2 gates in green (Joigny, Mâcon-Nord) are your exit points: you leave the motorway and rejoin it straight away. APRR, ASF and Escota official fares, in force on 1 June 2026. Accept 4 exits in total and the saving rises to €5.50: the app details that full plan when you run the calculation.
On top of these amounts you may also pay the tolls at Canet de Meyreuil and La Barque, which we do not price: they fall outside every fare grid we publish.
In a hurry? One exit is already enough. If you only want to stop once, leave the motorway and rejoin it at Joigny: you pay €81.50 instead of €84.20, a saving of €2.70 for a single stop. Every extra exit widens the gap, up to the €4.10 of the full plan.
Frequently asked questions
Is it legal to split the Paris–Nice toll?
Yes. You drive the same route; you simply pay in several instalments, at intermediate toll gates. No rule requires a motorway journey to be settled in a single transaction.
Does it make the trip longer?
Barely. The 2 gates suggested sit directly on your route (the A6, the A7 then the A8): you exit, pass the toll and rejoin the motorway straight away, in the same direction. Tollcut rules out gates whose exit would mean a real detour.
Does it work with an electronic toll badge?
Yes, and it is even simpler: with a badge, exits and re-entries need no stop and no ticket, and each leg is charged automatically. The saving is identical.
Where do these prices come from?
From the official fare grids of the operators APRR, ASF and Escota, versioned and updated at each annual revision (fares in force on 1 June 2026). Tollcut depends on no real-time pricing API.
