Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Aubel

The drive from Brussels Airport to Aubel

Aubel lies 121 km (76 miles) from Brussels Zaventem Airport, and the drive normally takes about 1 h 17 m. The route heads east across Belgium towards the German and Dutch borders. Aubel is booked less often than the big city destinations, but the transfer is available on request like any other. Allow extra time during the weekday morning and late afternoon rush around Brussels and Liège, and when the weather is poor. A private transfer takes you from the terminal to the door without changes or waiting for connections.

Choosing the right vehicle

Couples, solo travellers and small families usually take a private taxi, with options for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers. Choose the 1-4 option if you travel with four people or carry a lot of luggage. Larger groups can book a private minibus with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats. This suits wedding parties, business delegations, school trips and sports teams, since everyone arrives together in one vehicle. If you are unsure, pick the next size up so there is room for bags.

About Aubel

Aubel is a small town in the province of Liège, in the rolling Pays de Herve countryside. Orchards and pastures surround it, and the region is known for its fruit syrup and for Herve cheese. It is a quiet base for walking and cycling, and the Dutch and German borders are close by. Do not expect big-city infrastructure, so confirm your exact address with your host before travelling.
