Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Barneveld

The drive from Brussels Airport to Barneveld

The route covers 199 km (124 miles) and typically takes 2 h 14 m. It crosses the Belgian-Dutch border and continues into the central Netherlands, so a private transfer saves you from planning train connections with luggage. Barneveld is a less frequently booked destination, but the transfer is arranged on request just like any other route. Allow extra time during the morning and evening rush hours around Brussels, Antwerp and Utrecht, and in bad weather, as these are the usual causes of delays on a drive of this length.

Choosing the right vehicle

The vehicle depends on your group size and luggage:

• Private Taxi (1-3 or 1-4 passengers): suits individual travellers, couples, small families and business guests.
• Private Minibus 8 Seats: a good fit for larger families or a small group with extra bags.
• Private Minibus 16, 24 and 32 Seats: for teams, church or club groups and organised visits.
• Private Minibus 40 and 48 Seats: for large delegations or event parties travelling together in one vehicle.

If you are close to a vehicle's capacity and carry a lot of luggage, choose the next size up for more comfort.

About Barneveld

It is widely known for its poultry sector and for the surrounding woods and countryside. The town is a quiet base for visits to the area, with the larger towns of Apeldoorn, Ede and Amersfoort in the region.
