Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Amel

The Drive from Brussels Airport to Amel

Amel lies 163 km (102 miles) from Brussels Zaventem Airport, and the trip usually takes around 1 h 45 m. The route leads east across Belgium into the German-speaking part of the country. Because this is a less frequently booked route, it is arranged on request, like any other transfer. Allow extra time if you travel in the Brussels rush hours, as the first stretch away from the airport can be slow. In winter, weather on the higher ground in the east can also add some minutes.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

The vehicle depends on your group size and luggage:

• Private Taxi (1-3 or 1-4 passengers): suits solo travellers, couples and small families.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats: a good fit for larger families or friends travelling with extra bags.
• Private Minibus 16 and 24 Seats: work well for clubs, sports teams and mid-sized groups.
• Private Minibus 32, 40 and 48 Seats: intended for tour groups, wedding parties and company events.

With a long ride of nearly two hours, a bit of extra space is worth considering, especially if you carry sports gear or several large suitcases.

About Amel

Amel (also known as Amblève in French) is a municipality in the German-speaking Community of eastern Belgium, in the province of Liège. It is a rural area of villages, forests and open countryside close to the Eifel and the High Fens nature region. The area suits walkers, cyclists and anyone looking for a quiet stay away from the big cities. Since it is a small place, it is best to share the exact address of your destination when booking so the driver can plan the final stretch of the journey.
